was simplicity.

NOT PROFITABLE

ing Purposes.
(By r. q. wEATHERsroNE.)


As q breeder / consider the yearling
hen superior to the pullsts, as the
eggs are usually larger and viii pro-
duce better developed chicks. In fact.
the vigor OF the offspring is not de-
creased II the hen Ia kept three or four
years.
Considered a. . breeder alone her
value does not dspreciate a. long a.
she produces good chicks. But We
must Judge her value also by the
total amount OF her egg yield and we
know that the older she grows the
fewer eggs she viii produce.
Experiment station results and prac.
tical experience 60 to show that II
seldom pays to keep hens after they
are two years old. except for breeding
uses.
Notwithstanding the fact that pull
lets will lay more eggs than yearling
hens. believe It pays to keep az many
yeariing hens In the flock as pullets.
Many who keep farm flock do not
consider the cost OF raising the pullets
to an reproducing age while the
year-old hens are making a profit for
them.
Keeping about the same number OF
yearlings as pullets enables me to
market about one-half of the older
birds during the summer when they
are in good condition and will bring
the highest price.
In this way / have plenty OF room
for the young pullots early in the fall
/ and get them into their houses and
ready to begin laying before cold
weather comes on.
BY planning my egg-producing
flock In this way ! am able to supply
regular customers and maintain a
fairly uniform egg production during
the entire year.
After the older birds are marketed
the yearlings alone must be depended
upon to supply egg customers until
the pullets begin to lay IN the fall.
| have found It unsatisfactory 10
depend upon pullets alone to main.
tain a uniform production during the
whole OF year.

WHY THESE 'cwAR TAXES p"

[From the Philadelphia Press.]
Yesterday the war taxes" of this
Administration went into full effect. In
period of profound peace the people
of the United States are asked to pay
"war tax" of over a hundred million
dollars a year. 1t is properly called q
taxation on all the more common forms
of business, travel and investment
which heretofore has never been levied
except to supply the Governments ne
cessities in time of war.
The depressing effect of the Eu-
ropean war on revenue Is the excuse
given for this tax, but the direct influ-
ence of the war does not at all justify
resources of the Government have run
low mainly because of the extravagant
expenditures authorized by Congress
and carried out by the Administering
and in addition the laundering tariff
law purposely made low to stimulate
the importation of foreign goods is not
ernment requires and the trainers Of
the measure expected. This being so
Congress before venturing to adjourn
had to find new. sources of taxation
which have just become operative.
The Treasury statement shows that
for the FIVE months of the present fis-
cal year UP to November 2S the Gov
ernments expenditure has exceeded its
income by $7O,000,000 There has been
n steady falling off of income and as
steady an increase OF expenditure In
many forms. InouBh there was every
reason in decreasing receipts for prac-
ticing economy and cutting Off expen-
diture there is no evidence of a single
effort in that direction. 1t was more
agreeable for those in power to impose
new taxes on the people.
A large book of 779 pages showing
all the appropriations in detail made
by the present Congress has just been
issued 1t is an official publication and
it shows that the appropriations of this
Congress were $1116,11S,13S, the
largest on record and just sS1,000,00O
more than the estimated revenue for
1914 Contracts. for $4O,0OO,0O0 in ad-
ditlon were authorized. Had not the
Republicans compelled a cut of $780,
00O0 in the rivers and harbors bill
the showing would have been that much
worse. The country is reaping in this
way the benefit of Democratic admin
istration which has as it's necessary re-
suit the heavy war taxes" that the
people are now compelled TO pay.

OuR. SHADE TREES

-. OR several years there has been
- a growing interest throughout
the city in the care of the shade
trees of Harrisburg. Owing to
the increasing area of paved streets
and the necessary reduction of the
space devoted to the growing trees
on the sidewalks the need of careful
supervision in order that these trees
may grow and flourish has become
more and more apparent.
The Legislature of 1907 provided
by law for the creation of a Shade
Tree Commission with certain powers
over the trees of the cities of the third
class. but this act has never been ac-
cepted by Harrisburg and it has en-
countered persistent opposition in Of
fetal and other quarters. AS a COM
promise measure the City Council has
passed an ordinance to create the Of
flee of City Forester with certain DOW
ers and duties which are therein speci-
fed. This official will be under the
control of the Department of Parks
and Fairgrounds and assurance has
been given by City Commissioner Tay-
lor, the head of this department, that
he will recommend only competent

WHY GOOD BLOOD is RED

Why are we continually being told
that good blood must be bright red +?
What has color to do with the quail
ity?
Just this. The oxygen in the air Is
the great supporter of animal life.
One business of the blood is to take
oxygen from the air (Which 1t meets
in the lungs and deliver It to the
tissues of the body. When the blood,
filled with DEMONSTRATING oxygen. is
sent out by the heart it is bright red.
When it returns. filled with impuri-
ties, and deprived of its oxygen, 1t
is dark.
From this it is clear that there are
two prime requisites of health, pure
air and bright red blood-the pure
air to furnish the oxygen, the rich
blood to carry II where 1t is needed

COPYING AFTER US

N.Y. of German commercial ag-
w gression and enterprise. Their
zeal in trade extension has
been so widely exploited that we have
given them credit for greater acumen
than they really possess.
For instance. they have had to copy
from America the idea of the Phila-
delphia Commercial Museum, which is
far and away ahead of anything of it's
kind in the world as foreign trade
promoter Because, through this me-
dium, perfected by Pennsylvanians, the
United States gained rapidly in export
business, Germany sent its experts here
and is now operating in similar man
ner. but on much smaller scale. 1t
may he said, in passing, that Japan,
the American Union and the
United States government have also
adopted largely the Museums meth
ods and systems.
We have heard much about what
Germany and other European coun-
tries are doing to advance their inter-
ests abroad, but little of the splendid
and productive efforts of our own
country. The whole world has come
to Pennsylvania to learn how to in
crease it's exports

for our competitors in trade. but there
is no reason why we should ascribe

David Mckay, the Philadelphia
publisher, 64-6S S. Washington
Square, has just issued splendidly
illustrated volume of "a Christmas
Carol" by Charles Dickens. We can
imagine nothing more appropriate
for a Christmas remembrance than
this beautiful volume. Nothing that
Dickens wrote has lived as his Christ
mas Carol. The illustrations are by
Arthur |. Keller.
There has also been issued recently
by the publishing house of David Nc
Kay another of the children's books,
Little Chick Chickadee," by Carol

Boylston Dummer; also Little Sally

and experienced tree expert to look
care and planting.
In the absence of a Shade Tree
Commission this is, perhaps, the next
best step and pending a trial of the
experiment public judgment may be
suspended. Obviously the competency
of the Forester and his ability to dis
charge the duties devolving upon him
will constitute the essence of his eff
ficiency. We believe. now that the
City Council has taken this step, that
a thorough trial should be given the
plan adopted by the Department of
Parks. If it proves unsatisfactory
then public sentiment will force the
adoption of the Shade Tree Commits
sion with the powers vested by the
act of Assembly.
For years the shade trees of Har-
risburg have been butchered in a
shameless manner by alleged tree
trimmers who seem to think that their
chief joy in life is to grab a saw and
amputate the limbs of trees without
regard to necessity or appearance.
1t has also been the practice of
overhead wire corporations to cut out
the tops of trees or rip off a branch
wherever it suited their purpose and
whether it be a Shade Tree Commits
sion or a City Forester this sort of
thing ought to be stopped without de-
lay. Unless it is stopped, we shall
soon have treeless city ahd then the
people of Harrisburg will get awake.
But it is fair, and only reasonable,
that the Forester to be appointed
shall have a chance to show his
worth. He should have the co-opera-
ton of the people and the support and
the backing of the city officials. Mu-
nicipal control of the trees is abso-
lutely necessary to their life and care.

TELEPHONE LISTENERS RE-

completed and will presently be put
into general use on party lines which

phone. 1t is a small disc which con-
meets with a keystone tongue and
whenever the receiver is lifted from
the hook the sound is heard by "cen-
trail" AS each phone on the party
line has it's own keynote, it only re-
mains to recognize the tone to iden-
tify the culprit, the little tell-tale disc
will be something of a kill-joy to
those gossips who have a keen delight
in surreptitiously learning all the
news of the neighborhood over the
phone, who remind us in a round
about way of the Athenians who

wv paved streets on the first of
April, it will be the duty of
the Department of Streets and Pub
lie Improvements to see to it that the

the streets in first-class condition be-
fore that time under the specifica-
tions of his contract. OF course, the
guarantees of the paving companies
continue without regard to the change

Commissioners Lynch will doubtless
see to 1t that the interests of the city
are fully covered in all these matters.

HEN the act of the LeglSla-
N ture creating City Planning
Wv Commission was accepted by
Harrisburg and five public
spirited men were appointed as the
first commission few months ago.
the public generally did not appre-
ciate, perhaps, the full importance OF
this step. But with the development
of the plans of the new commission
through corporation with Warren H.
Manning, the distinguished landscape
architect, who has done so much for
Harrisburg in recent years, the full
scope of this feature of the city's fu-
ture expansion is better understood.
Since 1901, when the people became
fully aroused to the necessity or
change of old-time methods and the
adoption of new and modern ideas,
there has been tremendous progress
in every direction, but it is doubtful
whether any feature of our develop
ment has been so important as that
which is now being outlined by the
CITY Planning Commission. This work
is being carried forward in a modest
way without unreasonable expenditure
of public money, but with the maxi
mum of concrete achievement. 1t is
the highest type of constructive public
effort.
Looking ahead to the Harrisburg of
the future this commission, compris-
ing men who are ready and willing to
,,I,F xtFffI M
cost to the city, and who are devoted
to it's best interests, is preparing for
the expansion of Harrisburg along the
most intelligent lines. With the city's
landscape architect they are provid-
ing for the relief of congested dis
tricts, the broadening of future great
highways, for building along lines of
the most attractive character, the pre-
vention of serious blunders in street
grading and the collation. of all inn
portant statistics bearing upon these
matters.
The city has expanded far beyond
the dreams of its original builders, but
there is still much to do, especially in
the avoidance of those mistakes which
are not only expensive, but which are
serious in their effect upon the gen.
eral harmony of modern development
and growth. An intelligent vision of
the future is necessary to provide for
the larger city that is inevitable
within the next generation. This is
the special function of the City Plan
ming Commission. AS a body it rep
resents the eyes of the whole COM
munity and must discern our needs
for many years to come.
We should esteem ourselves most
fortunate that such men as Z. s.
Herman, the president of the COM
mission, and his associates. f. ]. Hall,
B. f. Umberger, George A. Shreiner
and George w. Reilly, are willing,
through high sense of civic pride, to
give their services without any cost
to Harrisburg in the performance of
this important public service.
