each crate and let the birds feed

Arrange to give plenty Of water OF
skim milk at all times. Dairy wastes
can be we'll utilized in mixing up mash
foods for fatten!ng the fowls.
Do not crowd too many fowls In q
crate. Let there be room enough for
each bird tc stand ct the trough With
out trampliag each other.
The birds should be provided with
plenty OF sharp gravel or other grit.
Start them on full feed It once and
keep them on It for 1s days at least.
A duck or goose will lay on a large
amount of fat in this timo If properly
fed. 1t is about as long "a :. water
fowl can be fed With profit.
Feed = mash food Of corn chop and
osts three timeE lsiQy. Let the base
OF this mash br ut lover, cut alfalfa
or bran. Il must have bulky base
OF some kind IN order . do the fowl
the most good. Corn r cornmeal alone
Is not q good fattcner.
The idea Of feeding mash food Is
that It puts more :esh on the fowls
because II Is moro easily assimilated
by the fowls systems.
Ducks and geese well fitted are al
ways IN big demand in the cities. Culls
and poor and old stock will never
bring over market prices.

EXERCISE FOR LAYING HENS
When Feeding Grain Scatter It Far
and Wide and Make Fowls Hustle
90 Gather Il UP.

In the first place do not overfeed'
BeaS In mind that If hen Is to be
kept In laying condition, she must
have exercise. When you feed grain,
do not put It in trough where the
hens can stand and eat their fill, but
scatter it far and wide, as the hens
will find every grain. If the snow 1s
on the ground after the cold season
sets In, throw the grain in leaves or
cut straw, so as to keep them busy.
Do not feed grain exclusively, but give
o variety. Allow ground meat or
meat and bone fresh from the butch
e., three times q week. Vary the
grain, feeding corn, wheat and oats,
and give cabbage, cooked turnips,
clover leaves or any other food that
the hens win eat.

are being herded like sheep, that
they are obeying the will OF the
bosses at every election.
It is a difficult matter for any
man to secure even the humblest
of public Offices without first Sc
curing the approval of the bos.
ses, and that approval renders
him unfit to Loyalty serve the
people as a whole.
We would like to see a differ.
ent system in vogue, and We
would like to see it make the
start right in this local COM
munity.
We would like to see the names
of every man who seeks office
posted where the people can see
it. Then we would like to see
every voter make his own decis
sion without a single suggestion
or a word of advice from any
other person.
Then we might hope to find
men filing public Office because
of efficiency, whereas now 1t is
mainly question of bosses and
votes
But we insist that the people
should be free to make their own
selections without persuasion or
interference from the bosses, for
it is our opinion that but few
men can be loyal to the people
as a people and yet be satisfac-
tory to the bosses.
Some of these days the people
will awake to a realization OF
their political power and the
bosses will cease to exist. They
will be just voters, as the rest of
US have have been for these
many years.
Speed the day and push it
along!

There are many reasons why geese
and ducks are not more popular table
fowls than they are, but the chief rea-
son is that they are so poorly fitted
for the market.
Many 2 farm flock Of ducks and
geese would pay q more handsome
profit if some attention was paid to
the fattening OF 1t.
First, a young duck or goose must
be had for 'fattening. Stock that is
too old Is not sweet and tender as 1t
should be. One cannot build up g
reputation by selling 1t.
Old stock, II less than three or four
seasons Of age. is better for breeding
purposes than for market.
Youngsters hatched from the eggs OF
yearling and two-year-old ducks, and
geese are the most vigorous.

THINK THIS OVER.

People are doing quite little
talking and reasoning on politi-
cal topics these days, and they
will continue to buzz around un
til after the years elections have
become history. Then they will
promptly forget ali about it and
the people they have placed in
Office will proceed to do as they
please throughout their terms,
and there are times that what
pleases the Office holder is any
thing but pleasing to the men
who put him there.
Right there, Mr.. Voter, is
where we make a very great
mistake. We should keep right
after the Office holder with as
much persistency after elections
as he employed in pestering US
for our votes before the election.
We should talk things over
among ourselves, and decide
what we need, and what is best
for our collective welfare, and
then we should hang unto the
Office holder like a hungry dog
grips bone until he gets what
we want or it isshown not to be
within the bounds of possibility.
If the official goes to veering
off on some fool course it should
travel the road that we select
for him.
He may be governor, or con
gresham, or county official, all

DEMONSTRATION STATISTICS FOR 1915

the great increase Ia the wealth OF
the state through the work Of farmers
who are indirectly influenced by the
demonstration agents. II statistics
for this were obtainable, It Is Ger.
tain that they would be vastly greater
than those for the demonstrators
alone.
Below are given some OF the more
striking statistics from the annual
demonstration reports for this state.
In the case Of cotton, it should be not
ed that the yield Of demonstrators
was 479 pounds per acre, as against
the states 1914 average OF 25s pounds,
and probably a much lower average
for 1915. In the case Of corn, the
demonstration yield was sS.4 bushels,
as against the states 1914 average
of 1876 bushels. The items qsoted
below are only one-fourth OF those
~reported on, but they are among the
most interesting.

nors and congressman and petit

cials are merely the hired SER
wants Of the people Who place
them IN Office and who pay them
their salaries, and their duties
are to obey the will of their
masters.
Keep right on talking politics:
and discussing men and condi-
tions, and pointing out the needs
and requirements of the people
of our section of the State. And
don't be afraid to let our public
servants hear you talk, for the
more you talk the closer they
will listen, and that will all lead
to results favorable to US as a
people and as community.
After we have talked people
into Office we should continue
along and talk them into doing
the right thing after they get
there. If any Office holder doesn't
like our brand of talk then we
are justified in assuming that we
have made a mistake in placing
him there.
Sane discussion of conditions,
and people and events is good
for this community, for it serves
two distinct and wholesome pur.
poses. It brings forcibly to the
fore those things that are best
for US, and it lets our officials
know that We are keeping both

duties as expressed by our will
in a manner acceptable to US.
