The necessity for the cooperation of

boosting spirit was the keynote of the
address of Merlin Hull, Black River
Falls, on Community Development, y
before the Wisconsin Hardware Men IS

"Liberally supported schools and
churches are examples of public CO.
operation which mark the communities

EEThe town which lacks the spirit to
maintain these institutions at their
best cannot hope for very rapid
progress or very permanent success.
The cooperation which makes good

Duty and Power of Newspapers.

The influence of the press in ce-
mentlng the people together, by bring
ing them into closer relationship, by
making them acquainted with what
. both town and country are doing,
should not be underestimate. But to
be successful in its mission, the news
paper must reflect the better spirit of
the town and its prosperity. Adver-
tlslng Is one or the greatest CONNER
clal factors of the age, and the news
paper which IS constantly carrying the
business messages of the commercial
and industrial institutions in large vol
ume is the best possible medium with
which to acquaint the outside world
that it is the organ of a prosperous
people, doing things for themselves
and ready to share their enterprises
with all corners.
1.-The progress of any community
must depend largely upon the earning
power of its people. Every institu-
tion which serves to increase the earn
ing power, or to enlarge the opportun'-
ity, deserve and should receive the en-
couragement of every citizen ambitious
for his own success as well as that
of his town.
Necessities for Live Town.
"a live commercial club is a good
thing-a grand thing-for a commun-
lty, but dead one is as useless as
punctured tire. All the schools,
churches, newspapers and clubs will
not bring about great development UNI
less there is boosting spirit among
the townspeople."
Mr.. Hull spoke of the part that
agitation plays in making progress,
and referred to the silo, which took
over forty years of agitation to in
troduce to the Wisconsin dairy man,
as an example Of this. In speaking
of the church, he scored the man
"Who is so busy chasing the almighty
dollar that he can t spare moment

ence in your community" he said.
cit benefits not only the present, but

ditions, is going to move to a town

FATTENING POULTRY
FOR MARKETING

Chickens may be taken from the
range, fed expensive feeds and sofa
for an economical gain, according to
Fl. L. Kempster of the College of Ag-
riculture of the University of Mis-
souri,. Tests have proved that the
birds will gain approximately 20 per
cent in twelve to fourteen days feed
ing. The grain required to each
pound of gain of the chicken was
three and one-half pounds or about
eight cents.
The chickens are confined in coops
two by two and one-half feet square
with wire bottoms. Stats were placed
across the front, permitting them to
feed from the trough outside. The
ration consisted of corn meal, a
pounds; shorts, pounds; bran, L
pound. To each pound was added two
pounds of sour milk. This wet mix
ture was fed twice daily. The con-
tinement encourages gain through a
lack of exercise and causes the flesh
to soften, making the meat more de-
lectable and luscious.
