popular belief that these agencies
have no right to force a collection
for a merchant or other creditor.
This belief is without foundation.
The supreme courts in numerous
states have held that the collection
agencies have right to go even so
far as filing law suit to collect a
bill for client.
The ordinary procedure in a forci-
bic collection case in all states is to
file law suit in some lower justice
court if the account is small and a
common pleas or district court if it
is over 5000 or $500.
When such suit comes to trial,
witnesses are examined to show that
the account is correct or uncanceled.
Proving his claim the merchant or
collection agency is given judg-
ment by the court, The sheriff of
county is then compelled to collect
on the judgment if the debtor has
any property.
Chattels or personal property like
automobiles, pianos and such are
levied upon first by the sheriff to
satisfy such judgment. If there
is no personal property ne seizes
real estate if there is any. The sher-
if then holds sale Of the goods
seized and pays the judgment from
the amount the sale raises.

poor selecting of breeders in the
breeding pen, as from any one thing
in the poultry yard. Good vigorous
blooded cock or cockerel purchased
from a reliable breeder cannot help
but strengthen any flock, but if i'm
possible to do this, use the best you
have.
You had better have ten good birds
with stamina for your breeders than
to breed from a whole yard full that
have not been selected. Reason it
out in your Own mind and you will
readily grasp the value of selecting
your breeders and wonder why you
did not do this very thing years ago.
By carefully selecting your breed
ers you will discover that the eggs
will run more fertile, hatch better,
and the chicks will be more vigorous
and will be raised easier and more
of them grown to maturity at a less
cost. These are facts and this advice
is good for many fanciers as well as
beginners.
The fact is the fancier will breed
from some fowls, just because they
are old time winners and hope to get
just a few more from this mating be-
fCre they die. Cut it out, do it at
once, it is a mistake and big one
and Won will always nav a daar urice
for every winner you raise from such
a mating.

there that are plump,
have better shaped
combs, yellower legs
and show more activ-
ity, these are the birds
to select the breeding
pen from. Do this
even if you have so
many different breeds
mixed together that
you really cannot tell
what you have got.
There are as many
losses traceable to

there are a number Of other draft
breeds in France, such as the Boulon-

the Percheron is by far the best
known, and has obtained a foothold
in this country much greater than

Select the Breeding Pen With Care.
Don't start in by breeding from
everything you got on the place. You
may not be an expert fancier or a
poultry judge, but your eyes tell you
there are more vigorous birds in the
flock than others, that there are birds

There were 400 fires this year on
the national forests Of Utah, south
ern Idaho, western Wyoming, and
Nevada, or Is more than in the most
disastrous season of 1910. Yet the
cost of extinguishing them was only
one-third and the damage only one
thirtieth Of that of the earlier year.
The difference is due TO better or
ganization now, and TO more roads,
trails, and telephones.
