HH poultry industry, from the
! man who raises a bakers dozen
In his back yard to the big egg
plants can look forward to great
things in 1915. The In dustry Is 90
ing ahead by leaps and bounds and
II rests with the men who are ac-
lively engaged in 1t as to whether
This advance will be permanent and
secure. Poultry Is the only meat
consumed as food that has not had
Its proportion Of recent price raises.
uhe reason for this has been that
beef and pork are the everyday
meat rations for every nation.
chicken has always been more or
Aess Of dish for Sunday dinner and
company. It has not had the exces-
siVe demands that other meat has
enjoyed. But the high price Of beef
which has now touched and passed
chicken meat in many instances has
put the poultry industry In a new
light. II beef cannot be produced
cheaper; If IL is true that the for
merly available grazing lands In the
United States are being rapidly cut
up into farms, and displacing the
reeding places for large quantities
OF stock, and that everywhere the
production Of beef on a large scale
is being rapidly and surely curtailed
then the poultry industry has
reached the stage where it will soon
come into its own.
What man is going TO pay more
Tor beef and pork than chicken
Just what do you suppose will hap
pen to the present supply of mar
keable poultry when chicken be-
comes no longer a luxury but an
everyday meat for the table? The
opportunity for producing poultry on
large scale is not affected by the
causes that are limiting the pro-
duction Of beef and pork. The
small farm is just the place for
raising 1t in any quantity desirable
to the breeder But II this is to be
done for a profit every farmer and
breeder who would have his profits
sure must see that his poultry is
rapidly put on the most vigorous
basis possible.
There is everywhere the complaint
that hens do not pay for their feed.
that fertility runs low, that 1t Is i'm
possible to raise even so per cent
OF the hatched chicks, and that the
quality Of the stock is not improv-
ing in the least. want every per-
son who is having any or all Of
these troubles to find in the follow
Ing suggestions something that he
can apply to his own case. 1t is not
only necessary that you read how
to improve your chances for sue
cess, but ten times more important
that you put every one OF the sug-
gestions possible that would apply to
your case into action.

CANCELLATION
SYSTEM URGED

Postoffice employees are anxious to
have local merchants take up the pre-
cancelled stamp idea. The system is
in use in all of the larger cities of
the United States and saves a great
deal of work for the employees Of the
office and makes for speed in delivery.
Pre-cancelled stamps are not per-
missable on frst-class mail matter.
The stamps are cancelled by the post
Office department and sold to firms in
large sheets. The cancellation mark
is the name Of the Office from which
the stamps are sold, printed plainly
on the face Of each stamp.
It was said at the Virginia postof-
fee this morning that the system is
particularly valuable to advertisers
who send out large numbers of circu-
lars, and to publications with large
circulation in foreign countries. When
the stamps are pre-cancelled, the
postofice employees are saved the
trouble and time necessary to cancel
each stamp. The system is favored
by many cities as a means of getting
publicity.
