THE HOUSE

Members Of the House spent hard
day Yesterday. There were numer-
Gus local bills that required the at
tention of that body. and the attend
auce was up to standard, as almost
every delegate had some interest IN
one or another Of the bills on the cali
endar. -
disputes arose here and there dur
ing the process OF passing bills from
second and third readings, and friends
al times giared one another In fhe

SWEET OR SOUR MILK is
GOOD FOOD FOR POULTRY
II Must Be the Right Quality, How
ever, and Properly Supplied.

Milk, sweet or sour, is good poul-
try food, provided it is good milk
to start with and is properly sup
piled. Sour milk is not a preventive
or a "cure alp for infectious diar-
rhoea.
Free use of milk, always before
the birds as a drink, commonly
causes watery looseness of the bow
els. Sour milk is more liable to do
this than fresh milk. Milk that has
gone stale on the city milkman's
hands is not good for chickens,
neither is milk that sours, "ropy"
or milk from gargetty cows.
1t is preferable to use sour whole
milk or sour skim milk, in a moist
mash, or in a pan, for either chicks
or fowls, and it is best when given
that way.
Sour milk, made into curd cheese,
by heating the sour milk to separate
the curd from the whey, is salts
factory way to feed. Squeeze the
curd as dry as you can before feed
ing, and use the watery whey in the
pig slop. Curd cheese can be sea-
soned with salt and pepper and
makes a good animal food ration
for all young poultry.
A great deal depends upon the
milk itself and the conditions under
which it is given. The statements
made about its use need a great
deal of qualification, and the bene-
fits have been greatly exaggerated,
but properly used is of great value
to poultry.

ooh, he's just farmer out her'
in the country"
We stood on a street corner th'
other day and heard that remark
passed by one of the brilliant
young masculine striplings Of oul
town as he "bummed" the makingI
from a friend.
The farmer, to be sure, was JUS
a farmer "out here in the country
He wore overalls and drove his wa
gon into town, but at home his au.
tomobile rested snugly in the garage
He owns one of the most valuable
farms in this whole section of the
state. His home life is ideal and
his wife and children have every
thing they desire. His simple word
is as good as his check, and his
check would be honored for sum
that might stagger you.
He is man, real man, a man
whom other men acknowledge to be
man among men, even if he is
";nst q farmer out here in the
country"
But what of the stripping, what
of the dudelet7
He is just one of that numerous
class who always know everything
and never do anything, who amount
to nothing and are worth less. He
is just a dudelet, and it is doubtful
if he ever attains to the dignity"
of being a real dude.
Yes, he is "just farmer out
here in the country" but he is our
friend, he is everybody's friend,
and time may prove him to be the
"friend in need" of the poor, vap-
id, brainless dudelet.
We need thousand more just
like him-this man who is Gust a
farmer out here in the country"
and whom we are proud to know as
our friend.
Poor, deluded dudelet! May he
never be worse.

There are two classes of people
in every town. The first never loses
an opportunity to better their own
condition in all legitimate ways and
at the same time advance the in
terests of the community as a whole.
The other class-well, they are just
the other class, and that's all.

He wouldn't give

FOSTER SANFORD'S MASS PLAY
Critics May Refer to II Without Quota
ton Marks This Season.

Foster Sanford's legal mass play as
used by Rutgers may now be referred
to without the employment of quota
ton marks. The play calls for the
lining of three backs close behind the
guard, tackle and end. The feet of
these men are necessarily one yard be-
hind the ball But If they lean over
the men in front of them are nearer
than one yard.
The central committee considered
the matter at the recent Interpretation
meeting and decided that when no part
of the body of q man who claims to
be behind the line of scrimmage is
nearer than one yard to the ball the
formation is legal.
Originally the play called for surg
Ing forward of the double line, with
the backs practically running up the
backs of the interference. 1t was usu-
ally good for two yards. Last season,
however, the formation was employed
by Rutgers as a mask for an end run.

How to Be Rid of
Disgusting Dandruff

The only way to be permanently rid
of disgusting, untidy dandruff is to
correct its cause. Shampooing merely
cleanses the scalp for few days, then
the scales form again as thick as ever.
To destroy the dandruff germ and
get rid of dandruff for good, part the
hair and apply little of the genuine
Partisan Sage directly on the bare
scalp, and rub it in with the finger
tips for a few minutes until absorbed
by the scalp. You will surely be
amazed at the result of even one ap
phcatlon, for your hair and scalp will
look and feel 100 per cent better.
Only few days massage with
Partisan Sage is needed to destroy the
germs that cause the dandruff to form.
The scalp becomes healthy, the hair
will grow better and show more life
and vitality, and you need never be
troubled by dandruff again. Faded,
dull or hfeless hair is quickly restored
to beauty by this simple process, which
is absolutely harmless, and will not
stain the hair or make it greasy.
Parlslan Sage can be obtained from
Wllfred +. Root and druggists every
where. 1t is not expensive.
