Kidding POULTRY
OF LICE IS URGED
Chickens Enjoy Natures Way by
busting in Light, Dry Earth
Best Dust Baths.

Natures way Of Kidding poultry of
lice is frequent busting Of light. dry
earth. Chickens seem to enjoy moth.
ing better. and certainly nothing does
them more good.
Birds are sometimes yarded on the
farm to prevent their getting into the
garden, but wherever they are they
should be provided with some sort of
a dust bath.
In the summer the best dust baths
are made by spading places In the
yard. each about a yard square and
ten inches deep. II there are any
stones in the dirt, 1t should be sffted.
Care must be taken to have the dirt
fine and free from pebbles, or the
hens will not use 1t. Make the place
where the sun can shine on it, so as
to keep the dirt dry. and after every
rain the dirt should be turned over
with a spade or fork.
II they can have such a place to
dust themselves. the fowls will easily
keep their bodies free from lice.

WORK AROUND FARM
DURING THE SPRING
Good Plan to Clip Work Horses
Clean Seed Before Planting
Gull Poultry Flock.

Mighty good plan to clip the horses
before the spring work begins-but
not too soon.
DO not rush the work in the gardens
Time will be saved by waiting until
The ground gets warm, no matter what
the date may be.
Are you going to SOW seed without
cleaning it, and then raise a big crop
of weeds? Buy. beg or borrow a fan.
ming MILL
Never buy seed from a dealer in a
far-away city, unless he is willing to
guarantee that it is pure. If he will
not guarantee his seed, be sure it is
wrong.
Getting seed corn from the crib in
the same old, haphazard way this
spring? Or, perhaps you are paying
fancy prices to dealers rather than
save your own seed? Either way is
bad business.
Do not let the trees from the nursery
lie in the wind single hour without
covering with a wet gunny sack or
damp earth The latter is better.
Best way is to have your nursery
orders in long before planting time,
with instructions to ship when you are
ready TO receive them, and not a day
before.
Get rid of all the fuzzy-wuzzy old
hens and roosters. Remember that
any hen over two years old is not
worth her keep.
1t is a pity to put sitting hens, or
hens with chicks, into old, louse-rid-
den houses, when a bit of burning sui
phur. spraying with kerosene and
soap, or a whitewashing will make the
premises sweet and clean. Going to
try il?
Rake every bit of rubbish from the
orchard. leaving not a thing under
which a bug may hide to hatch out
trouble later, Suppose it does take a
few hours to do it-how can we EN-
ploy the time to better advantage?
II the garden is plowed too early ii
will be lumpy. and things vegetable
will not do well on Jumps. Harrow and

HOW SAVINGS GROW.
Ben FrankIin's Proof That Money 10
of Prolific Nature"

After publishing his Poor Richard'o
Almanac" for twenty-five years and
giving thirty-two years more MS thrift
teacher of his country Benjamin Frank
lin put into his will provision to DEM
onstrate the power of accumulated saw
ings.
To the cities of Boston and Philadel.
phia he left $1,000 each. The money
was to be put out ut interest and al
lowed to accumulate for Il hundred
years. At the end of that time, he fig.
ured, each city ought to have $650,0OO
He directed that mt the end of the hun
dred years 500. 200 should he invested
by each city "in public works which
may be of most general utility to the
inhabitants" The rest should then be
put ut interest for another hundred
years. when the accumulation should
be divided. one-quarter to the city and
three-quarters to the state.
When the first hundred years were
past Boston found that she had $685.
923 to her credit from the Franklin
fund Taking 100000, Boston estab-
nSneu II tfdlnlnS school 1Of mechanics.
The remaining $163.923 was put out at
interest again
Phiadelphia's experience with the
original fund of $1,000 was about the
same as Boston's.
Now. Franklin figured that at the
end of the second hundred years, when
the fund is to be distributed, each fund
ought To amount to about $50, OO0,0 900.
But Boston's fund at the end of the
first hundred years exceeded Frank
Inns estimate by S13923. So here's
problem:
If Boston handles the fund as sue
cessfully in the second hundred years
as she did in the first how much in ex-
cess of S20000,OOO will it be?
Franklin's demonstration was i'm
pressive: $1,000 will go into 1868 023
how many times? Nearly 1873 times
Wasn't he amply justified when he
said, Money is of Il prolific nature"
What sort of demonstration can
you make?-.Iohn Oskison in Chicago

l0afing Hens

Watch closely and you will discover
that the hen that loafs or mopes never
lays. Why do they loafg Because
during the melting season they got
bilious. Look at their tongues, or
what we call tongues, and you will
find pale, whtsh color instead of a
healthy pink. Start the liver with B.

pounds to ton. No city company can
afford to hire an expensive man to
drive a light team. Increased supply
and sale of commercial products has
brought this condition.
For these reasons the heavy horse
has risen in value of late years, and
the importing and breeding of heavy
horses has been taken up on a large
scale. But the demand for heavy
horses has always exceeded the sup
ply. Good heavy drafters weighing
around 1,S0O pounds find ready sale at
over $500, and choice ones of this class
in the largest cities bring from $500
to $500
There is every evidence that the
heavy horse is the coming work animal
for both farm and city, and that good
prices will hold, if not increase, for
years to come.
The farmer who is in the field for
making side money from his horses
will be wise to breed for weight and
finish.

Both for farm work and for SALE the
heavy horse is a good money-maker
In past years the so-called fast horse"
was the ideal animal, but now the au-
tomobile has driven the running horse
out of business. The carriage horse of
today is heavier animal than in days
gone by.
The farmer now who goes to work
in the field, or who hauls loads on the
road, cannot afford to spend his time
with a light team that can draw only
a small load. Labor is too scarce ana
too high priced. Deeper blowing, and
more work must be done on the same
acreage. 1t is imperative that heavier
teams must be used.
For a number of years the weight
of best selling horses on the city mar
kets has steadily increased. Only a
few years ago horses weighing from
1,20O to 1,4OO pounds each were con-
sidered large enough for heavy team,

LABOR AND RECREATION.
All Work and No Play Produces the
Fatigue That Poisons.

Men and women come in the morn

fresh energy within them. Little by
little during the hours of labor they
empty that spring. When it is dry
they must draw from forces which
should be untouched. BY some strange
chemistry which 10 one understands
too well these intrusions on the phys

If this fatigue poison passes point
where the period of rest following Is
not equal to the task of throwing it Off
and filling afresh the spring of energy,
the man goes back to his toll little

unfit he becomes. Slowly the poison
lnvades his system. The repairing

more open to the attack of disease;
less and less able to do his work; I'M

He is an unsafe man, too, one not to be

places. The man has been poisoned

B. c. WORK RETURNS :
FROM TRIP ABROAD

The broad smile which boamed
from the face of a big American bust
ness man as he landed from the Lusi-
tania spread rapidly TO the faces of
thousands of automobile owners as
soon as IL was learned that this man
was the diplomat with a punch who
had lifted the English rubber embargo
which had threatened to send tire
prices soaring.
The businessman was B. G. Work,
president of the b. f. Goodrich Com
pany, of Akron, o. He was sent by
the Rubber Club of America to Eng
land, where. after hobnobbing with
Sir William Tyrrell. of the British
Foreign Office, and Sir Francis Hop
wood, of the Admiralty. he accom-
plished what American diplomacy
had failed TO do and brought home
the bacon-rather the rubber. because
the boat which brought him home car
ried several hundred tons of crude
rubber for the relief of the American
situation.
The cause of the embargo was an
effort on the part of England to keep
crude rubber from her colonies from
getting into the hands of Germany
for use in the making of more Zeppe-
Inns. boots, ground blankets and other
military equipment. The discom-
fture of American automobile own
ers was incidental, but none the less
severe.

NEW ObDSNOBILE
Wins MANY FRIENDS
Latest Model Is Daughter
of the Familiar Six
Cylinder Car
SUB-AGENCIES
FOR THE STATE

The four-cylinder Oldsmobile that
will be exhibited by Harry r. Loose
at'the show next week might be term
ed twin sister or probably you might
say daughter of the six-cylinder
car which has been for some time
past familiar sight on the streets
OF Wilmington and on the roads in the
surrounding country. So close do the
lines Of the smaller automobile follow
those Of the six-cyinder car that
when the cars are within few feet
Of each other. it puzzles one to de-
termine at first glance which is which,
except for size there is no detectible
difference in them.
Mr. Loose when interviewed, was
enthusiastic over both the automo-
bile show and the prospects Of sales
throughout his territory. Incidental
ly 1t may be stated that lis territory
has been increased and now comprises
the two southeastern counties of
Pennsylvania. the two northern eoun-
ties of the Eastern Shore of Maryland
and the two northern counties OF
Delaware. namely New Castle and
Kent He states that in this territory
extending from the very doors Of
Philadelphia at Darby to Milford on
the south. he proposes to show every
one interested in automobiles and au-
tomobiling that in either his four or
his six he has a proposition equalled
possibly by few but surpassed by
none. To assist him he has been for
tunate in securing the services OF
Walter A. Mintzer who has for sever
al years been connected with the Olds-
mobile Company of Philadelphia and
therefore has a thorough knowledge
of both the car he is selling and how
to sell it,
Mr.. Mintzer is out Of town at the
present time arranging for sub-agen-
cies of which there will be six, from
the present plans. One of these sub
agencies will doubtless be i'm Chester
as there are already numerous own
ers of Oldsmobilos in and around
Chester and il is the intention of Mr..
Loose to make such arrangements as
are necessary to look after their
wants as they arise.
