Publishers Association
Opposes Trading Stamps

New York. April 23.-Members of
the American Newspaper Publishers
Association, at the opening session of
their annual meeting in the Waldorf
Astoria yesterday, passed resolutions
condemning the use of trading stamps
and the so-called profit distributing
coupon plan" The federal law relat-
ing to the publishing of statements of
circulation and debt of newspapers
was also condemned and the practice
of publishing false circulation fig
ures was decried.
The resolution opposing the trading
stamp plan was introduced by James
Kelley, of the Chicago Herald. 1t
read:
Whereas. The alleged profit dis
tributing coupon plan and similar
schemes. having attained such growth
and having, in the judgment of mer-
chants, become such a menace to legi-
innate business that legislation prohi-
biting the same is pending in various
State legislatures, and
Whereas, In the opinion of close

TO the growth of trade and the eXpan-

Resolved, That the Americ News
paper Publishers Association hereby
expresses its belief that the best inter
ests not only of the newspapers of the
country but of all business enterprises,
are not served by such methods of
exploitation"

HUNT FOR BILLS IN
THE LEGISLATURE
Appropriations Committee Will
Check Up on Measures Carry
ing State Grants

Members of the House appropria-
tions committee are on a hunt for bills
carrying appropriations that have gone
through other committees without be-
ing checked up by the committee in
charge of the appropriations and ef-
forts will be made to have them re-
turned so that the figures can be in
cluded in the estimates. Last session
a number of bills carrying appropria-
uons were found after the committee
in charge of the grants of the State
money had completed it's work and
provision had to be made.
The committee will undertake COM
pilation of the general appropriation
bill within a short time, but it is un-
likely that it will be reported out until
within ten days of the close of the
session. 1t is now being held pend
ing disposition of legislation carrying
appropriations.
Thus far the committee has recon-
mended bills carrying over $4,000, 900
which includes the charities, $4,000
600 for the INDECENT insane, the APP
propriations for educational institu-
tions and the support of the National
Guard.

ideal There can be secured from these
enough eggs in one season to make
sufficient increase in the flock and at
the same time it gives you an oppor-
tunity to study the various charac-
teristics of the parentage of the future
flock.
If the females of this trio are care
fully trap nested considerable infor-
nation may be gained regarding the
egg production of the flock. Select the
best eggs for Matching. This may be
done either by sitting hen or small
incubator.
In case an incubator Is used. 1t will
be necessary to provide brooder, and
then all that is required is to properly
feed the chicks till they grow to ma
turity
The lessons to be learned in this in
itial stage of the poultry industry are
usually the hardest. There are many
failures and disasters met while rails
ing a small flock, but these will be
beacons to steer you clear of further
disaster when there is greater
amount of capital involved.
While the flock is increasing and the
poultryman is acquiring practical eX-
periences ii is also the time when he
is most proflted by reading and study
ing current poultry literature. 1t gives
him an opportunity to learn methods
proven successful to them, but are not
always successful to the novice. Be
careful of too much radical expert
mentation. 1t may be alluring to in
! stitute new methods. but it will be
found that the greater number of
| these have at some time or another
! been given a trial and found wanting.
Avoid borrowed capital; do not en-
| large too quickly, as the gradual in
crease in number of the flock will be
commensurate with the knowledge
| gained.
Very often at the beginning of the
season, there is every indication of
success, but many unforeseen condi-
tions will arise to the detriment of
| the growth and health of the flock,
and make it necessary to resort TO rad
! ical changes in order to avoid disaster.
During the advancing stages of the
flock there will be afforded an oppor-
tunity to study the various markers
and market conditions. as, after all,
this is the practical side of the poul-
try industry.

In most instances the products of a
small plant are disposed of through
direct sales to private customers,
where the poultryman either makes
his deliveries in person, or the Gus
toner buys direct from the plant. In
this instance he gets the maximum
prices for his output at minimum
sales cost, but with larger flock this
method of marketing would be i'm
practical.

BUCKEYE REDS

use of Brown LeGhorn males, Dark
Cornish were also used and the Rhode
Island Red fiocks showed many speci-

stock was either transplanted to Ohio
in the early days of the Rhode Island
Red boom, or the same crosses were
made in that State and produced what
was ultimately to he known as the
Buckeye Reds. At any rate their
originator, Mrs. Frank Metcalf, was
not above securing some pea comb
