Tar Paper Kills sorrsI.

Thorough fallow cultivation wiz kill
sorrel as we'll as tar paper, though II
may prove more expensive. Usually
sorrel occurs in isolated spots measur-
ing from three to ten feet across. II
these spots are numerous cultivation
will prove the more satisfactory. When
the sorrel heads out NOW the patch,
cover with tar paper and weight 1t
down. This will prevent the plants
from getting to the sunlight, and conse-
quently they will be smothered. One
season IS sufficient to do the work The
economic principle depends on the cost
Of the covering compared to the cost of
digging the spots or in plowing and
disking. If the tar paper can be bought
for 81. 20 per roll OF 500 square feet the
cost OF covering is slight compared to
the cost Of digging at SO per day.

With cold weather at hand poultry

eggs in winter Chickens are most
profitable where they are used main
y for the production Of poultry meat
In spring and summer, leaving the
marketing Of eggs for fall and winter.
A great deal of the success with
poultry in the winter depends on the
way the houses are built for warmth.
but when we speak Of warm poultry
houses we do not mean it in the sense
that we do in speaking of dwelling
house being warm. To have poultry
house warm enough SO that water will
not freeze in the coolest weather is
sufficient A simple thickness of match

There must he ventilation without
drafts, and the open front is best a
curtain is used to close the front in
stormy periods. The object in having
a warm house IS to stimulate the hen
and induce Ter to lay eggs during the
cod months II the fowls are kept
warm and are well fed they will lay
eggs, while if they are cold or allow
cd to become infested with vcrmin the
food they consume is employed to

be mixed in the proportion of three

Have fresh water on hand bright and
early. The water may be heated in
cold and stormy weather.
At the midday meal is the time to
provide those appetizing mixtures so

make egg production easy. Take

and mix them with cornmeal and

Blamed for Levies.
Quoting further the article says
Governor Lister and the democrats
levied the full statutory limit Of three
mills for general fund purposes in
1918. and in addition, los mill tax
for higher education" Again the in
situation that the governor is to
blame for the high levies, What are
the facts? A three mill levy was nee
essary in 1918 to meet the appropria-
lions Of the 1913 republican legisla-
ture and to make up for the extreme
| ~ low levy made in 1912 by Cover
nor Hays appointees for political
purposes. And what happened in 1914
when the levy was to be made?
A republican member of the board
of equalization insisted on another
three mill levy for the evident pur-
pose Of embarrassing the democratic
majority Of the board. The demo-
cratic members stood firm for levy
not to exceed 2.45 mills which was
the amount finally fixed. Note also
that the article says that Gin addition
to the three mill levy in 1913 there
was levied los mills for higher edu-
cation" He doesn't say that the. levy
for higher education is fixed by the
statute and that the board Of eQuali-
cation has no choice whatever in the
matter.
The writer of this scurrilous. attack
