SUGGESTIONS for Jinslers.

Today is the limit for receiving the
Jingles for the pase to be printed TINS
week saturday. The response mas eeen
good considering the short time tha'
the writer's had to prepare for the nfs'
issue for prizes. Now if the writers
will not wait TO see if they are sue
cessful the first week but will go TO
work at once and prepare second lot
for the next weeks issue they will be
more apt to get some prize winners
written.
One woman whose husband is apt to
find fault with his food asked nun

right but how is this for Jingle
He was so taken UP with his effort To
write a good jingle that he forgot that

why not get up a Jingle Party ana
see if a combination of heads cannon

II is great sport.
You will find that it takes bit OF
practice to get into form even for
writing Jingles. Make them polnteu
and with as few words as possible.
Above all study the requirements
of the firms that you write for anu
make the jingle fit that firm. W ma
would be fine jingle for one firm VIII
fall fiat for another.
Remember too that you can write as
many jingles for one firm and for as
many firms as you choose. Send them
in so that they will be sure and reach
the Journal Office Wednesdays on the
first mail.
If you are a winner you will receive
YOUR check the week following the
printing of your Jingle.

WHAT is THE ANSWER?
4. Citizen Asks About the Fire Horses
OF Augusta.
Editor Kennebec Journal:

Editor Kennebec Journal:
| would like to ask a few questions,
through your columns, about part
of the article praising the present
Democratic administration of city af-
fairs. That article, which was an
address by Mr.. Newbert mayor of the
city, setting forth the accomplishments
of himself during the past year. said
among other things that S1700 had
been paid for two pairs of fire horses
and that these two pair took the place
of two pair which were disposed of,
one being sold and the other killed.
The one conclusion that l could
reach from that paragraph was that
the city had two pair of horses that
had lost their usefulness. The city
also had $1700. It swapped the mon
ey for two more pairs of horses, which
property the city now has, instead of
the two old pairs.
From other sources of information
l learn that the city bought one pair
Of horses of Fred Hayward and that
they are now the property of the city
that a second pair was purchased of
Guy Hume of Fairfield, that they prov
ed unsatisfactory and were returned
to him early this winter. I am also
informed that instead of having horses
to show for the second half of that
$lI00 the city has part of the money.
Hume took the horses back and charg
ed the city what amounted to q rental
fer them while the city had the use of
them. 1t was not made plain whether
he paid any rental on the citys mon
ey he had during the period or not.
The failure of the Hume horses to
make good left the city without a
pair of horses for the particular piece
of apparatus they We're supposed to
haul. So a pair was hired from Hen
ry Cummings of Manchester and the
city is paying $3.50 per day for the
use of them.
I If this reported transaction is a fact
then is it quite true that the city of
Augusta has bought two new pairs OF
fire horses?

PRODUCTION or GOOD EGGS.
Wisconsin Expert Emphasizes I'm

III Keep Nests Clean. \; \

7 n N 70 e. w :
Z Just because an egg Is freshly laid
by an apparently healthy h hen it can
not be assumed that it Is q good egg,
according to James G.. Halpin Of the
College OF Agriculture OF the Univer-
sity Of Wisconsin, who emphasizes the
need OF clean, wholesome food for the
production of first-class eggs. Hens
that are forced to obtain the greater
portion of their living as scayengers
and given a poor range to work on
cannot produce eggs OF as good quality
az can a flock which regularly is fed
a good ration. NJ
Eggs lacking in protein have wa
terry white and the shell is apt to be
thin owing to the! partial absence of
lime. Such eggs, besides being OF less
value as food, are more than likely to
bring forth puny chickens Of low VI
tally, subject to white diarrhea and
an early death. With proper quaint.
ties of wheat. bran. clover. oyster
shell and sound grains in the ration
fed to laying hens, eggs with firm
shells, rich in protein and delicately
favored are sure to result, providing
of course, that the flock is given clean
nests and runs and Is kept free from
mites. b 3s.s y&
