MATCHING TIME.
Prepare for a Busy Season.

The price OF poultry is slowly but
surely rising, just MS the price OF cat
tie, sheep aud hogs is rapidly adyanc.
ing and reaching a point where people
of modest means can't afford to- have 10
very often on their tables, and therefore,
are turning 70 poultry and fish instead.
This coming season, then, every raiser
Of fowls should take advantage Of the
times and double his usual output As
March, April May and June are the -four
best Matching months, everything must
be ready TO start promptly. The first
step i 70 mate up the breeding pens II
hens, not pullets, and wen developed
cockerel should be installed in each pen,
but no more for the best results.
In selecting hens bear in mind the de-
scription given Of well develoSed egg
type Of hen by Tom Barron in these col
umns some weeks ago. As the male is
half the flock, pick out only the yigor-
GUS, bright eyed, well-shaped, well.deyel'
oped cockerels. The bird that crows
early and late, and is always ready for
a scrap, is none the less the ideal bird.
Housing and Feed.
The pen should be clean and free from
vermin, with plenty OF sunshine and
fresh air; take out all the window sash
and hang wooden frames in their places
hinged TO the top of the frames, so they
may swing back and up, out of the way,
to be used only on very cold nights, and
cover these frames with sacking. Pro-
vide plenty of straw or some other sort
of scratching material; install an auto
matte grain feeder and dry feed hop
per. and fill the former with a mixture
made up of the following: corn meal, 60
pounds; wheat middlings go poun1s;
wheat brain, 80 pounds; alfalfa meal 10
pounds; oil meal, 10 pounds; meat
scraps the best obtainable, so pounds;
salt, one pound. Or a mixture com
posed of wheat bran, three parts; corn
meal, three parts; wheat middlings, one
part: gluten meal, one part; ground
oats. one part; and meat, or fish, scraps,
one part. The dry feed hopper should be
opened about half the day and in the
automatic grain feeder place mixture
of equal parts by measure Of corn, wheat
and oats; in addition to the dry feed
and grain, some green food, such as cab
bage, cattle beets, or spronted oats. Also
provide plenty of clean water, grit and
oyster shells.
The Matching will doubtless be done in
incubators, so they should be made ready
now. Clean and disinfect them careful
~ with a small scrubbing or nail brush,
and pail OF hot water to which has
been added some good disinfectant. The
lamp should be provided with new
wick after every hatch. Clean out the
oil tank BY setting it ii a pail of hot
soapy water. then rinse in clean hot
water. Give the outside Of the machine
a coat of varnish BE sure the thermos-
tat is working properly and test the
thermometers by holding them in one
hand and stirring them around in warm
water until the degree of heat il los de-
grees r., and any instrument that fails
to mark the temperature correctly should
be discarded.

Defends Referendum.

Some people discuss the so-called ref
erendum bill which has passed the YER
mont House and which is now pending
in the Senate as though the vote in the
Senate was test between local option
and state prohibition, whereas this Is
merely vote whether to give the peo-
pie of Vermont as a whole a chance to
say whether they want state prohibition
or local option.
As matter of fact many people who
believe in local option are willing to
have test vote taken, just as many
voters who favor local prohibition will
vote against state prohibition in ref
erenduln test, believing that local OPP
ton assures public sentiment back OF
the enforcement of the law.
The measure is put in its present form
because under the constitution it is i'm
possible to put a direct question of this
kind before the voters as whole
The present bill follows precisely the
method adopted in 1909 when the people
voted to substitute local option for
statewide prohibition, and consequently
is Just as fair for all concerned as was
that measure.
Many people who stood for prohibition
in 1902 believed it was only fair to give
the people an opportunity to pass upon
this fundamental question, on the same
principle that our state constitution af-
fords the people a periodical opportunity
to make any changes they see fit in our
organic law. We can change our con
stitution every ten years. The present
liquor law has been in force over a
dozen years.
No matter how people may stand as
opposing or in favor of prohibition all
should stand in favor of fair play. Ours
is a majority government and when
ever we say we are not willing to let
the majority have a chance TO say what
they want, we are opposing the most
fundamental principle OF our govern
ment, namely, that the majority shall
rule.
We shall be surprised IL a majority
OF the present Vermont Senate are will
ing to 90 on record as denying the nu-
lnerous petitions, not for the present
substitution for local option but for a
chance for the people "a a whole TO vote
later on whether they want 20 continue
the present system, which is very diff
ferent matter.
To oppose q referendum is apparently
Il admit that the result Of a referen-
dunn il foregone conclusion. II We
admit al the very outset that a MAORI
~ Of the voters Of Vermont are against
us. then we may as well throw up our
hands. Never be afraid 20 let the ma
iority rule in a republic. for the moment
YOU do you in effect declare democratic
institutions are failure Burlington

ONE TANGLED SKEIN.
Troubles Of One John Mott and His
Knitter.


A great many women are now busily
engaged in knitting for the soldiers in
Europe. Some of then, as beginners,
are having their troubles with the yari
Gus stitches. Ii may be of interest TO
them to read OF the troubles Of one John
Mott and the manner in which he over
came them.
John Mott could not knit so he invent
ed knitter which would knit, and which
Mott called the Mott Knitter" But
the "Nott Knitter" could not knit %
knot. and Mott therefore had TO tie the
knots which the "Nott Knitter' could
not knit.
But one day Mott. while not tying
knots for the Mott knitter,' invented
an attachment for the Mott knitter"
which could knit knots. and which he
called the Mott Knotter" And when
the Mott Knotter" was attached to the
Mott Knitter," the mott Knotter'
would knit knots which the "Nott Knit
ter" could not knit And MOI a knittcr
could knit knots like the knots that
Mott knit with the Mott Knotter' for
the Mott Knitter."
Then Mott fell in love with a knitter
who knitted knots with the Mott Knot
ter for the Mott Knitter.n and he
asked her not 20 knit knots any longer,
but he a Mott forever. But the knittet
