NEWSIES TO MEET FOR ACTION
AGAINST "EATING" PAPERS
Chicago newsboys are tired of
''eating" newspapers. The trust
press game of forcing newsies to
take more papers than they can sell
has gone about far enough, the
newsies claim, and the Newsboys'
Protective union, No. 1867, will hold
a special meeting Sunday afternoon
at 2:30 to decide on some action.
The members will then decide
whether or not they want to pay for
papers in advance. The Daily News
has been working a scheme of max
ing newsies pay for News a week in
advance. Then if a rainy day came
along and sales dropped down the
newsie was the loser.
Boys not belonging to the Chicago
Newsboys' union will have a chance
to join for 81 initiation fee and Is
cents per month.

chinery Is essential, The side deliv-
cry rake and loader are used by many
Of the best hay makers in the state.
A common practice Is to cut in the
afternoon, rake in windows the next
morning and haul in the next after
noon. Many farmers cut in the morn
ing after the dew Is off. rake as soon

rake. turn the windrow over the next
day with a rake and haul in the after
noon with the loader. The side deliv-
cry rake handles the plants when

ter as many leaves as the dump rake.
II run in the same direction as the
mower. the leaves and tops Of the
alfalfa are turned into the center Of

CHICKEN LICE ARE DANGEROUS.
Take Proper, Precautions to Save Life
of Youno Chicks

Of Young Chicks.
Chicken lice may be readily exter-
minated with an application Of a mix
ture consisting of equal parts OF blue
ointment and vaseline or two parts
mercurial ointment and one part vase
line. says the poultry husbandry de-
partment Of Iowa State College. These
ingredients should be thoroughly mixed.
This may be done by placing them ON
a pane OF glass and working them to-
gether with a case knife. Both blue
ointment and mercurial ointment are
very poisonous and extreme care
should be taken in handling and pre-
pairing them.
Use an amount not to exceed the
size Of pea for each mature fowl and
apply with the finger to the abdomen
and just below the vent. For young
chickens, apply proportionately
smaller amount under the wings. One
application is sufficient to keep the
stock practically free from lice for
several months.
Lice and other parasites are respon
sible for great losses 10 poultry keep
