The Illinois legislators seem to have for
gotten why they were sent to Springfield.
Presumably they were chosen by the peo-
pie to make laws for the benefit of the
State; but, from occurrences, these so
called lawmakers seem to have the notion
that they are there to try to keep the
saloon power alive. Certainly the lights
in the Senate and in the House OF Repre-
sentatives for control can be regarded as
good politics, or for the advantage OF the
people. The liquor power is trying hard
to dominate the legislature with the view,
it would seem, of making laws favorable to
the liquor business.
Let good people pray that aSpeakermay
be chosen who has within his breast the
principles of civic righteousness; and that
the Senate will purge itself Of the wrong
certain State officials have tried hard to
fasten upon it.

SELL ZION THEOCRAT
AND LEAVES OF HEALING.

Eight bright, energetic Zion boys have
been selected as newsboys to handle the
Zion Theocrat Every Saturday morning
they present themselves at the Theocrat
Office, Administration Building, and get
a large supply of Theocrats. These they
take out into the territory assigned them
and call at every house in that neighbor-
hood. Besides carrying The Theocrat
they carry few copies of Leaves of
Healing each, so as to induce customers
to avail themselves of the plan of pur-
chasing six copies of Leaves of Healing
for twenty-five cents. The advantage Of
this is that people have an opportunity to
have the Leaves delivered at their door
and they can then mail them away direct
to their friends. The training that the
boys get in handling the papers teaches
them to be business-like It also induces
them to be thrifty and saving and in the
future should make successful statesmen
Of them.

SATURDAY, JANUARY %, 1915

The action of Great Britain in Selling
American merchant ships while en- route to
European ports with cargoes from ports OF
the United States is a source Of no little
anxiety on the part of exporters and ship
owners. The British government seems
to be determined that no ship formerly
flying the German flag, but now under
American ownership and register, shall sail
the high seas, especially to European ports.
The Allies are fearful that American
arms and munitions Of war will reach Ger
many and thus give Germany a better
chance to win in the present war. How
long the United States will permit these
seemingly unwarranted seizures is ques-
ton. Diplomatic protests do not appear
to lessen the number of seizures an
searches. Wonder if American merchant
vessels were conveyed by few of Uncle
Sans war vessels if they would be held
up at sea and searched? Quite likely. j.
B. does about as he pleases. What does
he care for paper protests? He has gotten
used to them, and he realizes that Uncle
Sam is most gentle and accommodating
and would not pucker a lip for thousand
merchant ships and their cargoes seized
at sea.

THE FRONT

Most poultry men now are advocating
the open front, made of windows, and
curtains made of duck of different
weights. In this way ventilation is fur
nished Some leave the front almost en-
tirely open, except the curtains Others
use a curtain of few feet across the
front near the bottom, and strip across
near the top.
In this cold climate we believe the house
should be made as warm as possible
leaving only openings enough to furnish
plenty of ventilation. Pure air is as es-
sential to the health of chickens, as it is
for people.
A platform across the rear side of the
building, three and one-haf or four feet
wide, should be made, over which are the
roosts, eight or ten inches above. This

THANK GOD FOR BREAD

Thank God for bread
Too lightly have we held His bounty;
Too sure of harvest yield;
And prideful in our store of plenty
From orchard and from field.
Thank God for bread!
Deliverer Of ancient Israel,
God of our fathers, Thou;
In Thy wide mercy yet enduring,
Hear Thou Thy people now!
Thank God for bread!
Forbid we wait till press Of battle
And devastated field
Forbid we wait till hearts are aching
And dead lips sealed.
Thank God for bread!
And if thy store be scant or plenteous
And see another need,
Thy Loaf be sure, shall be twice blessed
Ii thou thy brother feed
Thank God for bread!
Too lightly have we held His bounty
Too sure Of daily bread
God of our fathers Yet we name Thee ;
Before Thee softly tread.
Thank God for bread!
Who holds the nations in the hollow
Of Thy hand; Who fed
Thine olden people-now hear us
We thank Thee for our bread

THE FLOOR

The floor may be either dirt or boards
or cement. The dirt is cheapest and if
kept dry affords a scratching place for
the hens. It is more likely to be damp
than the other kinds, and is harder to
keep clean, but it is used successfully by
many. The boards rot out easily when
on the ground and afford a good harbor
for rats, which destroy much good. The
cement floor is perhaps the best of all 1t
should, however, be covered with some
soil or sand, as it is liable to be too rough
and cold for the hens feet.
The warmer the building can be built
the better. 1t may be built with double
walls or single; but must be built air
tight on three sides, so as to prevent any
draughts. A good roof is made of floor
ing, covered with rubberoid roofing, and
sealed with cement. The sides should al
so be made tight in the same way. Sheath
ing or shiplap may be used with the rub

THE BUILDINGS

or houses for the chicks This is very i'm
portant. Chickens must be properly
housed or sad results must follow; it mat
ters not how good the hens may be. All
chickens must have houses of the proper
size. Overcrowded quarters will breed
disease. In cold and stormy weather hens
must be kept in, under good shelter.
Poultry men of large and long exper-
fence have experimental along all these
lines have reduced it to quite science.
IT'S true they do not all agree as to the
details, but they have established many
general principles. All agree that the
more room a hen has to exercise in the
better
But when it comes to building, this
will depend somewhat upon the size OF
man s purse and his quarters. These are
limited. He wishes to build as econom-
ically as is possible and, at the same time,
consistent with the welfare of his flock.
If the flock is large, the number Of square
feet to the hen may be less than when the
flock is small
One very large and very successful
breeder says he runs flock of 1900 to-
gether in one house, and allows about two
and one-half square feet to the hen. This
would be too small, if the flock were
small; for their range for exercise would
be too limited.
A man may determine the SIZE Of his
house by the size of his flock, by Allowing
so many square feet to the hen. Three
and one-half square feet, we believe fair
allowance for each hen. Thus, if you
want to house two hundred hens, make
the building 50x14 or 44x16 or 1889.
The width Of the building we believe
should be fourteen or sixteen feet, and
then the length will be determined by the
size Of the flock. 1t is not best to have
the building too wide, or the sun cannot
reach the rear side This is desirable so
that the house may be kept dry.
There are different styles of roofs. The
single pitch roof is the easiest built, and
has the advantage that it carries all the
water to the rear Of the building.
The height of the building may vary
with conditions. With single pitch roof
seven or seven and one-half 'front.' and
five or five and one-half rear gives ample
room for the attendant to do his work
The higher the ceiling the colder it will
be in the winter.
