The CaCkIe Of a Hen

Listen for the cackIe of your
hen. II has a money value to
you.
The winter season is approach
ing, when the price of eggs will
advance and the cackle will be-
come of even greater significance
to you.
Plan for the cackle, feed the
hens in accordance with the de-
mands of nature rs proPouuded
by the experts who have spent
their life in the work.
II the cackle is not heard with
sufficient frequency, ask yourself
why. Dig down and study the
subject. for the more you study
the ofteuer the hen will .eaekle,
and cackling means more eggs
and q bigger bnuk account.
Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1915-11-04

1t is the law of nature that 4
hen should lay, and cackle. She
should lay often and do much
cackling, for that, too, is ma
lures law.
But she will not lay unless she
receives proper food and care.
and therein lies the wisdom of
the man who thinks before he
acts.
Get hold of some good litera-
ture, read up on the subject of
egg production, s,aply the know:
ledge yOn thus obtair, -444 in the
end you will learn to experience
a keen delight 10 every eackle of
your hens.
Your hen wants to caekIe-she
will cackle, if you give her a
chance.
Aud there's money in the cackle
of a hen.

have you seen ours?

this town and the farming sec
tiou around here should buy all
of their goods from business
houses located in other sections
of the state or country. How
long would our stores keep their
doors open, and how long would
you be able to buy even a pin or
nail in this town?
And if everybody kept on send.
ing their money all out of the
town and community, how long
would it be before we had no
more money to send, and when
we found the community pauper-
lied where would we turn for
relief?
The profits of local industries,
both farm and town, represent
the money that is kept in circu-
lation at home. If those profits
are sent away we can not expect
long to have any money ID circH-
lation in our midst; for other
people in other places will have
it; and we will be getting poorer
and poorer all of the time, and
our community will be getting
deader and deader, uutil in time
no one would care even to live
here.
Certainly no sane person would
want such a condition of affairs
to exist here.
But what is the remedy, you
say? 1t is both sane and simple.
Quit doing your shopping out
of town and buy goods from
home dealers. That is, buy
everything you can here.
Don't be carried away with the
false idea that you can buy cheap
er somewhere else, for you can
not. If you want sboddy and
worthless goods you can 6nd
plenty of city stores and firms
who thrive on selling people just
such rotten stuff at a few cents
less tbaA yOa Eopld pay your
home dealer for a good article
that be is willing to guarantee.
But you can not boy a reliable
article elsewhere any cheaper
than you can buy the same arti-
Gle right here at home.
We are pushing the buy it
at home" slogan in this cOmmun-
ity and we want ron to join as.

Putting 1t Up To You

We would not weary our read
ers by being too insisteut upon
any one subject, but the welfare
of our community should be up
permost in the minds of every
loyal citizen, and that welfare
calls for few very pertinent re-
marks at this time of the year.
Between now and the 18th day
of December many thousands of
dollars will be spent by the peo-
pie ia the purchase of holiday ar
ticles. The manufacturing cost
of those articles must of neces-
sity go to the factories scattered
broadcast over the country. That
can not be helped.
But there is another cost which
should be seriously considered BY
every person who has any regard
whatever for the future welfare
of this town and this community.
That cost is the retailers profits
on the sales.
To make this community pros.
porous and keep it SO it is neces-
sary that those profits be kept at
home, apd that can only be done
by patroniziug merchants who
live here and conduct their busi-
ness here and spend their own
money here.
No citizen has the right to feel
that it is all right for him to
send his money away from this
community because ''he is only
one person and. his money will
not be missed" 1t is just such
people who are building up the
great centers of population BY
strangling the rural business in
3erests AL over the country. They
are the people who produce hard
tiues ia the country towns and
farm sections Of every state, be-
cause they are millions in num-
ber..

Nothing To 1t
Says Graybill
Grand Master Workman Is EN-
phatic In Denying Rumors
ABOUT LODGE RATES
Gives What He Considers Good
Reasons For A. o. U. W.
Security

That there is any possibility
of the A. o. U. w. of Kansas ir-
creasing its rates of assessments
is positively denied by DR.. J W.
Graybill, Grand Master Work
man. He declares there is not
the slightest foundation for the
reports that are being circulated
in some sections of the state that
lit soon will be necessary tor the
A. o. u. w. of Kansas to in
crease its rates.
when the A. o. u. W. of
Kansas, seventee years ago took
an advanced step and adopted its
present scale of rates." said DR..
Graybill in discussing the mat
ter, 1.-THE members of other So
cieties were practically unani-
nous in declaring that they were
too high. The increase in rates
at the time did work hardship
and the A. o. U. w. lost many
members as a result Of the
change. The talk that was then
made about the rates being too
high did not help any at the
time. Our only consolation is
that we told the other societies
at the time that they would soon
err or later have to take the same
step, and this is now being proved
by the fact that a number of So
cieties are now undergoing rate
readjustmeut. The members of
these societies are now saying
that the A. o. U. W. of Kansas
must raise its rates, forgetting
that we fixed our advanced scale
of rates in 1898 and have been
operating successfully under it
ever since that time.
ION October 1, 1908, ten years
after the present scale Of rates
was adopted, the A. o. U. W. of
Kansas had available assets of
$439, SOL 50. On September /,
1915, the available assets of the
A.. @. u. w. of Kansas aggre-
gated 81, ,s07.77, a gain Of
$719,215.9S Ia seven years. Dur
ing the period between Septem-
Der /. 1914, and September 1,
1915, the availabl assets of the
order increased $l34,94s,51, or a
little better than the average for
the past seven years.
i with its available assets.
which are created from the sur
plus of the assessments from
members after all death losses
are paid, increasing at rate OF
more than 500, 1000 a year, it is
folly for anyone to suggest that
there exists a necessity for an in
crease of rates by the A. o. U.
w. of Kansas. AS long as the
available assets of the order con.
tinue to grow, and can see no
reason why they should not con-
tiuue to increase at the present
rate, the A. Q. U. W. of Kansas
will never have to undergo rate
readjustment. I fully expect the
available assets of the order to
exceed a million and a quarter
dollars before the session of
