Poultry Pays Him Well.

How does $240 look for proceeds
from a flock of 175 chickens from
January l to June s? That's what
Russell oKline of the Orange Town
ship Cooperative Egg Marketing as
ISOLATION in Blackhawk county re-
ceived from his flock. Market eggs at
four cents above the market price
brought him $50 of this and hatch
ing eggs sold brought $50. This was
in addition to what his family ate
and what he used in his own incuDa-
tors.
Since this Blackhawk association
was organized about a year ago, II
has marketed $4,000 dozen eggs on
the Waterloo market at four cents
above the prevailing price. It's mem
bership has increased from II to %.
The high price fer eggs is obtained
because of the care with which the
eggs are produced and because of
| the guarantee that goes with them
Every egg is stamped with an idelti-
| fication number and date, so that
there can be no doubt as to where ii
came from in case of poor egg.

Here's an amazing thing in poll
tics. The national association Of
postmasters in session at Washing
ten last week endorsed the admins
tration of President Wilson from
start to close without a dissenting
voice. Not one lad a single com
plant. No matter if the administra
ton did order the expedition to Vera
Cruz and then order it back, they
were for it. They were solid for
Funston going into Mexico and just
as strong for his coming out if the
master of the pie counter says the
word. So enthusiastic were they for
the head of the payroll that if he had
wanted a resolution passed that east
and west are merely relative terms
they would have put it through with
"a neutrality-suspicious. Bulletin

2-Year-Old Drives Car, But

Cedar Falls, July 3I.--Harry
Oman, the 2-year-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. II. d. Oman tried his first efforts
as chauffeur when left alone for a
moment in the automobile in front of
the Oxford hotel. He turned on the
juice, lifted the brake and started
the car. Fortunately the open door
istruck telephone pole, which check
ed the car sufficiently for Mr.. Oman
to make grand rush from the hOtd
and enter the automobile before it
was going too fast. The door was
torn off. No other damage was sus-
'tained.

Finds Needle i'm His Hen Fruit.

John Layton OF Dawson, Pa, avers
that he has the prize chicken of the
county. Layton works at the Boyd
sand works. While eating his lunch
yesterday he broke the shell of an
egg, and was about to eat it when
he noted something black in the yolk.
Closer investigation showed a nee
ale within the egg. How the needle
got within the egg, which was per-
fectly sound when taken from the
nest is a puzzle

There's considerable philosophy in


There's considerable philosophy in
this, credited to an unknown ex-
change: Man is little cuss and
hasn't long to stay; he flies around
and makes fuss and then he hikes
away. Some men imagine they are
great and try to tear up Jack, but
each one meets the same fate and
trots the same old track Great Gaze
sar died and turned to clay and so
has Cicero, and Aiexandre's gone the
way the rest of us must go. The
Isages, heroes, poets, all the men Of
wealth and worth, into an open grave
must fall and crumble back to earth.
Then let's not join the mad ARRAY
and struggle like the deuce, and ag-
cnize our life away, for really, what's
the use? Let's live and love and
sing the while, and work some now
and then, and sive to everyone a
smile that cheers the hearts OF me-"
And whether we are crowned VITA
flowers or chilled with winter SHOWS,
with happiness let's fill the house
lore we turn up orr toes"

GRAVEL NOT A CURE-ALL.

But do not imagine that a road is
finished when you have put gravel
on it. The gravel will not always
stay in the place where it is put. 1t
will wear rutty and cuppy and full
eff holes. A gravel road has to be
maintained constantly, the same as
any other road and to neglect it for
one year even would be tantamount
TO running it. A gravel road means
that there is some one handy with
cart to fill up the holes and some one
handy with King drag to iron out
the ruts. But when graveled
road is kept up as it ought to be kept
up il forms one of the finest roads in
the world. There is only one road
better and that is a good dirt rc-.d,
absolutely leveled and dragged con-
Istantly. But the dirt road cannot be
kept dry enough for use in all times,
while graveled road can be kept so.
If it didn't rain too much and it new
CT got too dusty dirt road would
be the ideal road for automobiling,
says the Cedar Rapids Republican.

When the Creator had made
all the good and beautiful things,
in order that they might be truly
appreciated. He then made the
beasts, reptiles and poisonous in
sects.
When He had finished, He had
left over scraps that were too
bad to put in the rattlesnake, the
hyena, the scorpion, or the skunk;
so He placed all these together,
covered it with suspicion, wrapp-
ed it with jealousy, marked it
with a yellow streak, and called
it a knocker.
Then as a compensation for
this fearful prodnct, He took a
sunbeam and put in it the heart
OF a child, the love Of a mother,
the brain Of a man, wrapped
these in civic pride, covered it
with brotherly love, gave it a
mask of velvet and a grasp of
steel, and called it a booster.
He made him a lover of field and
flowers, and manly sports; a be-
lever in equality and justice.
And ever since these two were
created, mortal man has had the
privilege of choosing his associ-
ates. Elk.
At the last session Of congress.
a bill was introduced in the SEN
ate, and passed by that body, re-
ducing the age of homestead en-
trymen from 81 to 18 years.
This same bill has now been in
troduced in the house, and it is
believed, will pass. This lill pro-
vides that any otherwise qualified
entryman of the age of 10 or
over, may file on any land open
under the homestead laws now in
force, but shall not be permitted
to make final proof until three
years after reaching 81, the same
as under the present law. It is
also provided that such minor
must comply with the homestead
laws as to cultivation and i'm
provements, but need not begin
residence on the land until he is
of age or 81.
This law is proposed to give
the children Of ranchers oppor-
tunity to file on land located near
their homes and to cultivate the
same, three years earlier than
would have otherwise been pos
sib!e. 1t also tends to keeps the
boys and girls at home on the
