He Was a Poor Judge Of Chickens

In the current issue OF Farm and
Fireside several contributors discuss
the best ways to develop egg laying
qualities in poultry. Some believe
strongly in trap-nesting and others do
not. One of the advocates of trap
nesting tells the following story:
once at a poultry show | met \
man who did not think the trap nest
necessary. as he had taken a cores
pondeRce- course in How TO tell the
layers and could pick 'em out. We
had pen on exhibition consisting OF
No. 2262: No. 49, another 200-egg hen,
another hen which the trap nest had
shown to be very poor layer. and 4
hen which had not been tested.
II at once asked him to pick out the
best layer from that pen. and he
picked the poor layer and the untessed
hen as good layer. and rejected thA
20o-egg hens as poor layer"

pie of the so-called Christian and civilized coun-
tries arc suffering from the horrors of war and
liquor, and under the ground prematurely;

our lawmakers and voters fully realize the de-
vtstation and havoc. the hard suffering and
want, resulting from the evils they would rele-
gate the laws legalizing the evils TO the scrap

business who II they realized the calanitous
effect OF their wares, they would quit and clean
their skirts NJ the blood of the victims. We
are evidently approaching crisis In human af

been tried and found incompetent to run things
on an equitable basis. For the good of all con-
Cerned ] will admit that they are probably do

malady is too deep-seated. The only hope and
solution of the matter seems to lie in the
