PROPER FEEDING IMPORTANT in
GROWING CHICKS.
Necessary Elements For Body Build
ing Should Be Provided.
ROY H. WAITE,
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station

Do your young chicks get the neces-
sary bulk in their feed to keep their
digestive organs in good trim? Do
they get enough protein material for
building up and repairing flesh? Do
they get enough mineral matter with
which to construct frame work for
their bodies?
These are very important things to
consider at this time. If you do not
have too large a flock and they run on
free range they may get the necessary
bulk from grass and other green feed
on the range. They may get the pro
tein required from the bugs, worms,
etc., they are able to pick up These
insects may also supply the necessary
mineral matter. All you have left to
do then in the feeding line is to give
some grain and see that they have
water
But supposing they cannot get these
natural feeds Surprising they are
confined in small, bare runs or sup
posing the flock is SO large that the
natural feed will not go around. What
will you do in this case? VIII you
keep on feeding simply grains which
do not as a rule contain all the neces
sary elements, or will you give them
some bran to supply bulk, meat meal
to furnish the extra protein and ground
bone to build up a frame work for
their bodies?

the enactment of laws of special in

has proved of great service in hand

the various departments. His purpose
in travelling over the state at this time
Is to get in touch with the people, get

INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM.

Ex-President Taft says concerning
the idiocy of initiative and referen-
dun:
1T is just as absurd to propose de-
tailed legislation by votes at a popular
election as it is to propose to build a
bridge without engineers, or to build a
house without al architect or a COM
petent contractor.
This is not to impeach the intelli-
gence of the electorate; it is only to
recognize the limitations upon men, in
doing something under the conditions
no intelligence will enable them TO do"
All Of which it good reas 1nin,y and
good common sense. Legislating Is
much more important :1r the people

would be thought of n proposition to
dispense with training and experience

HELP THE WET CAUSE.

II the dry or prohibition forces had
deliberately planned to damage their
own cause and correspondingly help
the vets, they could hardly have done
so more effectively than they did in
forcing the present dry law through
the legislature. In fact, 1t Is stated
that the wet forces in the Legislature,
finding that dry legislation could not
be prevented, Joined with the prohihi-
tionists in passing this law, believing
that the enforcement of its radical
provisions would prove so ~repugnant
to liberal minded citizens, regardless
of their attitude toward the temper
ance question. that it would defeat
the constitutional amendment which
win be voted upon next fall. AMI 1t is
not improbable that they have reason
ed correctly,
The evil consequences that follow
the use of liquor are not traceable to
the home where it is kept for personal
use, and to the rational prohibitionist
it was never contemplated that such
use should be interfered with. To
prohibit a man from exercising his
right in this respect denies him a
privilege that comes within his con-
stitutional prerogatives. the supreme
court of the state of Idaho to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. Many citizens
of Idaho who are accustomed to keep
a case of beer in their homes would be
glad to see the saloon abolished and
would vote for it, because they know
its degrading and immoral influence
perhaps more thoroughly than the
professional prohibitionist. But If
they, because they desire to keep an
alcoholic beverage of some form in
their own homes Ior their OWN use
are to be classed with the saloons as
a menace to society and branded as
criminals for an lnoffensive act, 1t is
not improbable that they will line up
with the wet forces and smash this
law when they have a chance. The
people of Idaho are probably opposed
to the saloon and want 1t abolished,
but they are not in favor of this radi-
cal law that deprives a citizen of his
personal rights and may cause a re-
action that will defeat the real desire
of the people with reference to the sa-
loon.

A WAR LOAN PRIMER.
New York SUM

New York SUM
The great war oar is nominally to
be made to the governments of Great
Britain and France, but 1t is really an
extension of credit to the foreign buy
ers of our merchandise.
This extension of credit is rendered
necessary at this time by the circum-
stance that our foreign customers do
not have the usual supply of merchan-
disc of their own production to send
to us in payment of their purchases
here.
This extension of credit is finally
and principally in the interest of the
legitimate industries of our own u
try.
For this extension of credit the in
terposition of bankers is required, and
there is nothing more mysterious,
nothing more sinister about their
presence as an element of the trans
action than in any case where a buyer
of merchandise gives his note at six
months for goods he has bought and
the seller wishes to turn the note i'm
mediately into cash.
If the various American sellers of
merchandise took in payment the five
year obligations of. a perfectly solvent
buyers and all wanted to turn them
into cash at the same time in order to
continue their business, there would
naturally result a great pressure of
sellers with a consequent low price for
the paper in payment.
1t is on this account that the gov
ernments have appeared as borrowers,
giving their obligations in place of the
notes of the individual buyers.
The bankers, on their side, are act
ing for the Amrican sellers Of mer-
chandise, as they do every day in q
smaller way for ordinary individual
transactions.
The simple facts concerning the
great war loan are confused in many
minds by the technical talk about ex-
change, credits and so on. A great
many people have been led to believe
that there is something extraordinary
abnormal, in the process; which is not
the case except as to its magnitude.
