NO RESPONSE HERE TO PLEA FROM SALT LAKE
Local Chamber of Commerce Is no' for Keeping Fairs Open for

 towing to the European war and general unsettled financial condi- tions, many people have been unable to visit the California expositions. Therefore the Salt Lake Commercial club asks all cities to cooperate in urging people of California and of ficials of the eXpositiOnS to keeD them open for another year. Will you start the movement in your state by taking action in your or ganization for the purpose of crys- talliZing public sentiment to that end?
 Salt Lake. Commercial Club.'' In reference to the above, several prominent members of the Chamber | of Commerce thought no action would be taken by the local organ ization In the opinion of those interviewed there was no possibility of the officials of either exposition keeping their fairs open for anoth- l CT year. It is understood that both San Diego and San Francisco are undergoing a heavy financial strain, neither one of the expos being what might be called money makers. It is also understood in connection with the proposition to keep the fairs open for another year that the attendance would hardly merit such an act Already extra trains put on ! to take care of the heavy fair traf- l fic have been cut off, and the high | tide of fair visitors has been passed l EXTRA SLEEPER TO COAST-An extra sleeper will be attached to the Santa Fe train leaving here at 6:2C | r. m tomorrow.

NOT SUITABLE FOR THE NAVY
Would-5e Sailors Hardly Understood
the Duties Required Of Fighters
on the Ships Of U. S.

They tell story about a certain
secretary of the navy who had never
seen a ship, and who exclaimed, when
he began to explore a man-of-war,
Good gracious, it's hollow! This is
an unlikely yarn, but 1t is a fact that
there are people who apparently know
as little about a ship as Sioux In
dian.
Some weeks ago a man visited the
receiving ship Wabash, lying at the
Charlestown (Mass.) navy yard, and
said he would like to ship, but would
not enlist If he could not be given
work to which he was accustomed.
He was not enlisted. for he would be
useless. He was paperhanger.
Another man went aboard and
asked to see the captain. He was in
formed that that official was very
busy. He then made his errand
known to the officer of the deck. He
wanted to enlist and care for the cap
tain's horse, for he was a stableman.
Another wanted to enlist as a ships
roofer, and once a gardener called to
obtain employment. Flowers and gar.
dens are scarce on board of United
States man-of-war, SO he failed to en-
ter the service.

POULTRY CARE DURING FALL
Much of Success in Winter Depends
on Attention Given to the Fowls
in Autumn Season.

The success of poultry during the
winter depends largely on the care
they receive during the autumn.
If your hens do not molt early they
will not be profitable winter layers.
writes Mrs. w. M. Jeans of High Hill,
Mo, in Farm Progress find it profit
able to feed three tablespoonfuls of
sulphur in one gallon of soaked corn;
this is enough for about thirty hens.
l feed this twice daily for two days.
This has to be fed at a dry time. or
keep the hens confined in dry house
for three or four days and feed the
first two days.
About thirty days after use this
feed l Gull out all my hens that have
not molted and market and keep only
my best hens and early-hatched pull
lets. The henhouse should be thor
oughly cleaned and painted or sprayed
with some good disinfectant. The
chickens should be either well sprayed
or dipped. use a good stock dip.
find this keeps off disease and mites
Hens should be fed well-balanceSi
ration at this season and always keep
before them a dust-box filed with
ashes, in which sprinkle some lime
grit of some kind and plenty of fresh
water, and there is no reason why
your poultry will not return a good
profit.

UTILITY VALUE OF POULTRY
Farmer Should Aim to Select Fowls
for Production Of Eggs and Meat
Scrubs Are Improbable.

In poultry, as with other live stock.
the farmer should be much more con-
cerned in their practical utility value
than in their ability to win prizes at
the shows.
Prize-winning hens are judged for
their beauty of form and plumage.
not for their ability to produce eggs
or meat abundantly and profitably.
This does not infer that the farmer
should breed scrub poultry by any
means. He can no more afford to
harbor scrub hens than scrub cattle
or hogs, but his aim should be to pro-
cure purebred fowls that have been
bred along utility lines rather than
for show purposes only. There ara
such strains in all the practical breeds
and these are the strains that the
farmer should procure for his breed.
ing fiocks.
The fact that fowls have been bred
along practical lines does not indi-
cate that they have lost beauty or
breed type, but rather that greater
attention has been given to egg pro-
duction than to the fancy points of the
show room. which would be lost to the
average poultryman anyway.
1t is gratifying to note that the ten
dency Of the times is toward greater
utility value in all of the popular
breeds. The egg-laying contests have
undoubtedly exerted much influence
in this direction.

DOING UP THE DAINTY FROCK
Work May Be Successfully Done at
Home if One Is Willing to Take
a Little Trouble.

Now the art of the "Blanchisseuse
de fin," as the French call their very
cleverest washerwomen, is not a Sc
cret process at all, but it well within
the comprehension of anybody who is
willing to take little trouble, so why
not save a considerable sum of money
by doing up" the best frocks at
home?
The secret lies in first carefully
washing a delicate frock in the ordi-
nary manner and then rinsing 1t
through water in which a little gum
arabic has been dissolved in proper
ton of a piece about half the size OF
a nutmeg to a gallon and a half OF
water. If you come across any spots
and you do not know what caused
them, dip an old, clean toothbrush or
nailbrush in kerosene and scrub the
spot lightly with this. and nine times
out of ten the kerosene will remove
the spot without further effort, and
the odor always evaporates when the
dress is washed.
To keep delicately tinted wash
dresses from fading, little care must
be used. They should never be hung
in the sun, but must be dried in the
shade or in the house. You can keep
green cottons or linens from fading by
adding half cupful of vinegar to az
gallons of water and dipping the frock
in this and letting it drip dry in the
shade. Half cupful of salt used in
the same way will fix the color of pale
blue dresses or washable mourning
materials.

Obviously the nesting material must
be clean, or the eggs become soiled
by contact, and it must be sufficient
in quantity, or the eggs are often
broken by dropping upon the hard
floor of the nest. In houses where the
dropping boards are above the nests.
and the custom is to sand the boards,
small stones often drop into the nest
and breakage results when newly laid
eggs fall upon them. The condition
of nests should be noticed daily. and
the nesting material replenished when
necessary. Plenty of nesting mate
rials prevents breakage and insureS
clean eggs.
An ample and clean litter on the
floor is also very essential when an
AL clean product is sought. Partlcu-
larly is this true when the hens are
allowed outdoors during hot weather.
The litter acts as a foot mat for the
hens on their way to the nests.
Clean eggs bring better prices than
dirty ones.
II your hens do not produce eggs
make up your mind that the manage
ment is at fault.

Sunshine is absolutely necessary
for the health and vigor of the laying
hen. Low windows should be set 80
that the sun will shine into every part

day. Roosts should be placed on a

are apt to injure themselves either
by crowding, falling or flying against

the windows in the poultry house
