Juggling Official Figures

over a year ago the Globe Democrat
deplored the fact that the public
could no longer take statements made
by cabinet members at their face
value, but had to subject them to
scrutiny. Since then we have had to
go below the superfices of Secretary
Redfield's statements several times.
But it seemed inconceivable that full
credence could not be given to the
official reports of the condition of the
United States treasury. Yet on Oc-
tober l of this year the daily treasury
statement showed a net balance of
$12S, ,063, ,545.z3, whereas at the close
of business the day before it was just
s40,S9S, ,S94.04. Since not cent had
come into the treasury in the mean
while from any source, this overnight
difference of over $50, 100000 set ex-
perts to work scrutinizing methods.
The increase was produced by sleight-
of hand bookkeeping. Jonathan
Bourne made an investigation and
found that SCI 100000 of the increase
came from shifting to the asset side
of the ledger disbursing officers bal
ances which had from time immemo-
rial been carried as liabilities.
Harvey S. Chase, a certified ac-
COunidht Vi IDOotohf Who OhSC WI hCh
in the treasury, has gone into the mat
ter more exhaustively. He shows
that July 1, 1913. neither subsidiary
silver COIN silver bullion nor minor
coin was included in the assets. In
the last statement all these, amount
ing to over s30,000.000, are included.
The national bank notes redemption
fund and the balances of disbursing
officers, were considered liabilities.
Both have been shifted by Secretary
McAdoo to the other side of the led
ger. Mr.. Chase "certifies" that II

basis as that at the end of the fiscal
year in 1913, the available balance

KEEPING YOUR FOWLS
FREE FROM DISEASE
By J. H. McFAUL, Jr.
III RighkS ReSeyVeM

Then there is that other stipulation so
essential for healthy fowls. This is
cleanliness. Unclean fowls and quarters
breed disease almost as quickly as i'm
proper housing, and should not be toler-
ated-that is, if you expect to attain
success.
Lice are considered a form of fowl
disease, for no bird can produce eggs,
meat and lice at one and the same time.
One must give way to the other, and its
an invariable rule that the egg and meat
end of the industry will give way to the
lice, unless you take steps to drive off
the latter.
This applies to the cOops, as well as
to the birds. There is little use in con-
tinually treating the birds to keep down
lice, unless your efforts are also directed
toward the coop. Lousy cOops will re-
suit in lousy birds, no matter how hard
you work with them. Clean the coop at
least once a week, and each time spray
every crack and crevice with some good
solution that will chase the Yermin away.
Dust the birds regularly with a good
louise powder, and supply them with a
nice dust bath.
If you will get the hens reasonably
free from lice and supply the bath, you
can direct your energies toward the
coop, with the knowledge that the birds
will, with the assistance of the bath,
keep themselves clean.
In your fight against lice. a kerosene
or carbolic solution is excellent for use
in the poultry house. This not only
keeps down lice. but also acts as di-
sease or germ destroyer, and the knowl-
edge that it is better to prevent than
attempt to cure disease. should induce
you to use it frequently.
If these suggestions are accepted and
carried out, and thereby result in the
fowls being properly housed, cared for
and kept clean, disease will be almost
unknown among them and your success
will be assured.

What MOTHERS SHOULD
REMEMBER in SEPTEMBER

In the Better Babies department of
the September WOman's Home Com
panion appears the following mother
calendar for September
keep your baby away from sick
people and out of crowds.
do not let people kiss your baby on
lips or cheeks.
"a baby needs exercise, so do not
keep your little ones tied in his chair or
go-cart too much. Creeping is excel
lent for developing the muscles.
do not try to teach your baby to
stand. A healthy baby will stand and
walk when strong enough to do so.
Never give your baby tastes of
your own food. 1t is very dangerous.
If he is old enough to have solid foods,
he should be on a a regular diet adapted
to his age. "
DRESS your baby according to the
temperature, not merely according to
the season of the year.
Remember that September nights
are often chilly, even though the days
NAV be hot; see that your baby does
not sleep in a draft. Keep the windows
open wide, but put screen around his
bed.
'Go and see the school where you
send your children, and satisfy yourself
that it is sanitary, properly heated,
lighted and ventilated, and not over
crowded.
''Give each child who goes to school
a pretty folding drinking cup, or sup
ply of Individual paper cups.
