MUST WEAR GREEN CAPS
Upper Classmen Issue Edict and Pre-
pare to Enforce it-Freshmen Must
Wear Green Caps.

"On or before Tuesday morning
February "a, freshmen shall appear In
green caps" These are the words OF
glaring notice that was pinned on
the big bulletin board in the admin
istration building at the university
this morning by order of the executive
board Of the students. The notice is
considered a certain Indication OF
spring since the frst-year men are
never required to cast off their civilian
head gear in exchange for the emerald
coverings until the last signs of win
ter have passed.
Preparations are being made on
every hand to enforce the green cap
order and considerable excitement is
predicted A "ducking' bee WIS found
last year to be necessary before all
of the frst-year men could be fully
convinced Of the wisdom of the
upper classmen's ordinance, and no
less than a dozen freshmen were put
under the hydrant before the eyes of
their classmates.

GET EGGS IN WINTER
Hens Must Have Little Extra
Care While Noting.
White Leshorns Mature Early and
Are Considered One Of Best Va
rieties for All Round Purposes
Are Good Layers.
CBy r. G. wrATHERsToNE1


This past summer has been a very
successful season for me in my poul-
| try farming-in fact, ] am just be-
| ginning to understand the business
well enough to make something out
of it,
/ have Matched about 800 chickens
and have about 40 living, thriving
nicely and, to crown my success, the
greater number of them are pullets.
They are of the White Leghorn va
riety. This kind of chicken natures
very quickly and think about the
best for all round purposes. They are
good layers and will not bother about
wanting to set before they are three
years old.
They are also good foragers and II
given the wide range will not need
much extra attention until molting
time, when they should, of course,
have bit of soft food.
Many poultry keepers complain of
a shortage Of eggs early In the fall.
This, in most instances, is due to nee
ligence during the molting season.
People do not seem to understand
that when the laying hen begins to
shed her feathers she loses consider
able vitality and grows weak and
languid.
The White Leghorn hen sh - her
feathers earlier than many of the
other varieties and the grain is usual
ly still in the fields where she can get
enough without being fed.
The other breeds, melting later, lose
this advantage and II not given some
extra food to give them proper vital
ity, will produce very few eggs before
the winter chills come on and then
remain idle all winter.
There is Just as much depending on
getting the hen in proper condition
for winter laying as there is cleaning
and otherwise preparing the poultry
house for winter use.
One Of my neighbors said to me
recently: Tell me how you keep
your hens always laying the entire
year,"
told her I kept them In laying
order.

KILLING THE POULTRY LICE
Hiding Places for vermIn In Nests
and Houses Should BE Cleaned
Out-Reelpe for Powder.

One Of the best ways to fight lice
ON poultry 10 to keep the nests and
roosts clear Of hiding places for them.
Thus It IL wise to have all the build.
ings Just as simple as possible. Ere
Quently. however. lice will bother no
matter how well the place is kept
cleaned up, and It Is necessary to dust
the birds with powder. Here In a
good insect powder used at the New
York experiment station:
Mix three parts Of gasoline with
ono part of crude carbolic acid OF 95
per cent. strength-one part Of cresol
will do. II the acid ia not available
and gradually add. with stirring
enough plaster Of paris to make. when
the liquid Is uniformly mixed, a dry,
pinkish-brown powder having a fairly
strong carbolic odor and a rather less
pronounced gasoline odor, AS a gen.
eral rule. 1t takes about four quarts o.
plaster OF paris to one quart of the
liquid.
In using this powder on the birds
remember that the eggs are not killed
by one busting. and as these probablv
are present at the time of the appli
cation, more than one busting SHOULD
be given. Repeat the applications
nee or twice, at intervals of from
four days to a week.
For a spray to be applied to nests
and roosting places to kill the insects
mix three parts of kerosene to one
part Of crude carholic acid of 95 pei
cent. strength. Stir this mixture be.
fore 1t is used. 1t also may be used
as a paint as we'll as a spray.
