The great valve-in-head motor. with overhead
camshaft costs us $1,000 more to build in our own
shops than the ordinary type Of motor be bought
for on the outside and most Of the competitors in
price class are using the ordinary type Of motor.
When Chalmers engineers went to Europe to
study design two years ago. they found European
designers at work high speed motors Of the valve
in-head type with overhead camshaft.
European makers had already tried this type out
in their racers. They perfectins it for road
car.
We hoped to be the first in America to adopt this
style Of motor But when the war stopped European
Makers fate decreed that we should lead the world
in the use Of the valve-in-head overhead camshaft
motor for stock car.
We were not surprised at the showing at Indian
apos and Chicago. where this type Of motor won all
honors. We knew year ago that these results
would be achieved.
Speedway Racers All Of This Type
We knew that to attain speed Of 90 to 100
miles an hour that the motor would have to be

would get away quicker, more smoothly, have
greater hexibility. show greater economy and last
longer under hard service.
Second was that public temporarily diverted to
cars that only looked well and rode nicely for while
would swing back to demand quality manufacture
and the ability to stay put"
Third was that only those manufacturers who
built their own cars in large volume bought their
own materials for spot cash at the advantage OF the
market could survive.
Motor Designed in Europe
So we sent our engineers to Europe to design
motor and began to lay our plans for greatly
increased production this season.
We are now building two big new factory additions
to handle the work We added machines that cost
$o0OO000 apiece to do work in factory in order
to give this remarkable quality to you at $780,

THE DUST BATH.

The dust or earth bath is certainly
necessary if the fowls are to keep
themselves free from body lice. In
this section, where SO much dampness
is the rule, it is pretty hard to keeI
the bath in shape. 1t is mistake
however, to assume that the earth
bath must be powdery dry. In fact
the birds seem to like it better, ant
it seems just as satisfactory, if it is
not SO dry and dusty. OF course, il,
should be clean. Just remember this
Mr.. Poultryman, if you don't provide
your fowls with a good dust bath, ii
is up to you to see that they are
busted regularly with some good in
sect powder. 1t is no use to expect
a hen to lay eggs and support huge
family of lice.

NEW SCKO.L IS OPEN
Girls Institution at Grand Mound
Starts Christmas Day.

The states newest institution, the
school for girls, near Grand Mound,
this county, was formally opened
Christmas day by Miss Mary Camp
bell, who has the distinction of being
the first woman appointed superin-
tendcnt of state institution. Boys
from the state training school at Che
halls, earlier in the year, had worked
on the grounds of the girls school
and had put in crop of potatoes. The
Chehalis training school hereafter
will be operated as boys school.
The girls school at present con-
sists of two cottage buildings, built to
accommodate so girls. AS the num-
Der of girls transferred from Chehalis
was greater than the total number
the buildings were planned to accom-
modate, the board of control will ask
the coming legislature to provide an
additional cottage and also an admin
istration building.

TO AMEND CONSTITUTION
Plan on Foot for Legislature to Call
Convention.

A constitutional convention move
ment probably will be brought for
ward early in the coming legislature
IN an effort to stave off numerous re-
quests for the submission of consti.
tutional amendments.
Such a move, at least, Is being
quite freely talked of among legis-
lators. Under the procedure out
lined in the state constitution, il the
legislature should SO direct by two
thirds vote in each house, voters at
the 1916 general election would bal
lot on whether or not to call con.
vention, which probably would be
elected in the summer or fall of 1917,
and the constitution drafted by this
assemblage then would come before
the voters for adoption or rejection.
probably at the general election OF
November, 1918.
Several proposed taxation amend
ments, prohibition and near-prohibi-
ton amendments desired both by
wet" and dry" forces, and an
amendment to allow future amend.
ments to the constitution to be made
by the initiative, are among the pro-
posed changes which their sponsors
will ask the legislature to submit to

MATING.

If you have not already mated III
your breeding pens for the coming
season it should be done as soon as
possible. There are several reasons
why this is true. In the first place
! the sooner fowls get used to their
quarters and to one another the
quicker they get down to the bust
ness of producing eggs, and in the
second place, the early Matched chick
is the money-maker.
Perhaps a few suggestions as to
methods of mating will not be out of
place at this time. There are certain
general rules that apply to the
mating of all varieties and all f1ocks,
whether fancy or commercial The
first matter to be considered by the
poultryman in mating his flock is the
health and vigor of each fowl. It is
worse than folly to breed sickly, i'm
mature birds and expect to produce
anything but chicks that are lower
in vitality and poorer in quality than
the parent stock. 1t is also true that
it is much easier to transmit unde-
sirable characteristics than to per-
petuate the desirable qualities. Bear
ing this in mind, it behooves every
breeder to study his birds carefully
and Gull closely, instead of picking
up few hens and a male bird that
looks pretty good" throwing them
into yard and calling it mating"
1t is well to remember that the
male is "half the flock" and a good
deal more than half if he is an in
ferior or sickly specimen. The great
est care should be exercised in Sc
lecting the male to head the breed
ing pen. Be sure that he is of the
proper type, healthy and that he pos
sesses no glazing defect. In addition
to being as near standard type as
possible the breeding male should be
well-matured, comb and wattles we'll
formed and bright, healthy red;
carriage should show that the bird
is keen, alert and aggressive. Never
select male that has apparently re-
covered from a serious illness. Avoid
males with pale combs, short breath,
bad colds or any other symptoms of
an unhealthy condition--in short,
avoid introducing into your flock
blood that will mean low fertility Of
eggs, low vitality of chicks and I'M
sound constitutions.

ABOUT DRINKING VESSELS.

How many poultrymen would drink
from vessels as filthy as the drinking
fountains they provide for the fowls
Mighty few. And there would be
fewer poultrymen very soon if they
did. 1t is impossible to have a
healthy, hardy flock if the fowls have
to drink foul water or use a filthy
drinking cup. We know that this is
elemental, but it is so much so that
the average man overlooks it's impor.

vention plan has been proposed to
supply better remedy than the
patchwork method.
1t is also true that many provisions
of the present constitution, which has
been in existence for more than a
quarter of century, are archaic,
while some are absolute dead letters,
such as the provision for a decennial
state census to supplement the fed
eral census. The last two legisla-
lures also have refused steadfastly
to comply with the constitutional
mandate for reapportionment Of
state representatives in accordance
with the last federal census.

Do not understand that We are ad-
vising the use of females that are
not healthy and sound. Health is
always a requisite, but a defect in d
single individual female in the pen
is not so serious. Avoid choosing
males and females that have the
same defects, as such defects will be
only the more pronounced in the Off
spring. Breeding females should b,
fully matured. AS rule neither
exceptionally small nor exceptionally
large birds of variety are desirable
breeders.
One should take time to study his
flock and his standard of perfec-
ton" and be sure to get his best
fowls. If not we'll acquainted with
his variety it is worth while to seek
advice of some one who is, when it
comes to mating up the breeding
pens, for upon the wisdom here dis
played will depend the success of the
seasons work. Experience is the
only teacher that can make one fully
acquainted with his fowls and the
best method of mating them, but
much good information can be OBJ
tanned from experienced breeders.

American manufacturers have been
meeting tremendous demands from
the European nations for war sup
plies and equipment. All these ship
ments have gone to the Allies, since
Germany has ben inaccessible to our

has been great boon to the Allies,
Great Britain has been a perfect

The advocates of the Hitchcock and
Bartholdt measures declare that some
sort of legislation of this kind is es-
sential and they hold out that this is
quite necessary for the congress to

trality which our government wishes
to obtain.
A Substitute for "Tipperary."
Josephus the First, Lord of the
American Admiralty, more familiarly
known as the secretary of the navy,
denies that he has forbidden the sing
ign of that catchy air, "It's Long
Way to Tipperary"-and whether
"Tipperary" is against neutrality or
not, it appears that new jingle has
been taken up by the middies. Try 1t
on the melodeon:
"Sister Susie's Sewing Shirts for
Soldiers,
Such Skill at Sewing Shirts our Shy

They'd Sooner Sleep on Thistles

Forcing Oranges to BE Good.
The agricultural department at
Washington declares that oranges are
not mature unless the juice contains
soluble solids equal to more than
per cent of acid in the juice. Gentle
reflection will likely produce an image
of oranges that tasted like chips, but
which from the exterior were all that
could be desired. The trick of the
trade" against which the federal in
stituton has directed bulletin points
mi that by process of sweating or
exposure in warm, moist air, oranges
are given the appearance of being

below what they should be that ship
ment in interstate commerce is being
prohibited.
