Why should not taxpayers have

Do not mistake US as being op-
posed to the advance of training

,gest that it is customary for the

to post a forfeit. There is not
one rule for the moralist and an
other for the immoral. The stan
dard of the first should be at
least as high as that of the sec

the Conservation Commission
and the revered moralist enter
into articles declaring that if the
father is not there with the
punch" at the proper time, that
the son surrender promptly the
valuable consideration advanced
in the form of training expenses.
Evidently salvation is to be
had-at a price. as heretofore
suggested, but if the salvation is
not delivered the price unques-
tlonably should be returned. The

PRIZE ESSAY ON POULTRY
Wilma Fisher
Of The Grayson High School

During the past century great
progress has been made in near
ly all lines of Agriculture and
poultry raising, now recognized
as an important branch of agri-
culture, has advanced with other
lines. It has become a trade, an
art and a profession. Nor has
any other ration made greater
progress in poultry raising than
the United States. Great time
and thought has been applied to
this question.
The safest way for those who
are about to make their first at
tempt at poultry raising is to
start in small way with a few
fowls and learn the business
Thoroughly before making large
investments. Mistakes will be
made and many difficult prob
lens will be presented for solu-
ton before success in any large
measure is attained. Then after
the profession is learned gradu-
ally increase the business.
The question is often asked as
to what is the best time of the
year for one to begin this bus
mess. When to begin is not i'm
portant, but the fall of the year
is a good time, for then stock is
cheap.
If the beginner has had exper-
fence in poultry keeping it is all
right to begin with eggs, other
wise they should begin with the
fowls and thus gain some knowl-
edge of careing for poultry be-
fore attempting to raise chick
ems.
For convenience. chickens NAV
be classed as egg breeds, meat
breeds, general purpose breeds
and fancy breeds. We have diff
ferent breeds under these class
es. So the first thino. ia~te=se 1
lect the breed. The one should
be got that suited the conditions
and surroundings. After the
breed is determined the next
thing is to decide whether to
start with eggs or fowls as was
stated before it depends on the
experience of the beginner.
After one begins this profess
sion he needs to provide for
houses and enclosures. The build
ings should be placed on an ele-
walton or hill which is self drain
ed. The land should be sandy !
loan in preference to clay. All
houses should face the south as
sunlight and warmth are essen
tial. 1t is best to build in spring
or early summer then they have
time to dry out. The floors
should be cemented. The size
will depend on the size of the
flock. The roosts should be plac-
ed in the houses allowing seven
or eight inches for every chick
