Fats J, Doubt.
NAVAL BILL Is IN FORM

Washington, Aug. l7.-Adminis-
tration senate leaders, confronted by
the determination of Senator Owen to
press his corrupt practices bill at this
session of congress, made an agree
ment with the republicans today,
which, they believe, will clear away
for passage of the shipping and rev.
enue bills, now temporarily blocked.
1t was agreed that Senator Owen
might move to take up his bill at any
time and that enough democrats
would vote with the republicans
against the lmotion to defeat it
For hours today, while the shipping
bill was being discussed to empty
seats, democratic and republican lead
ers consulted over the legislative
deadlock.
Won by Republicans.
1t was said tonight that enough
democratic promises to oppose Sen
ator Owens motion had been Sc
cured to assure what the republicans
earnestly desired, a postponement of
action on the Owen bill until the next
session. A vote on the shipping bill
probably will be permitted by the
republicans tomorrow, or Saturday
under this agreement.
The days developments had served
to renew hope for an early adjourn
ment of congress, when advocates of
the immigration bill injected a new
disturbing feature. Senator Borah,
in the course of speech on the ship
ping bill, referred to the need for i'm
mediate immigration legislation and
the resulting discussion revealed evil
dence of another democratic revolt.
Not Bound by Caucus.
Senator Hardwick announced that
it was the intention of Chairman
Smith of the immigration committee
to call up the measure before ad-
journment and Senator Ashhurst, an
other democrat, said he hoped such a
motion would be made soon and that
he would not gbe-bound bysthe .den1o-
cratic caucus, which voted 'to DELAY
the measure until December.
During the day there was gossip
among democratic senators that
President Wilson might not veto the
bill if it should be presented to him.
There was, however, no authori-
tative information on that subject.
Naval Bill Finished.
Mention of immigration diverted at
tention from the shipping bill for sew
eral hours, Senators Dillingham;,
Works, Brady and other republicans
urging passage of the immigration
measure.
"We should pass this bill even if
the president does not intend to veto
it again." said Senator Gallinger, the
republican leader.
The day passed without progress
on the shipping or revenue bills.
Senate and house conferees on the
naval bill, however, put that measure
into the final form in which it will
be sent to the president for his sig
nature.

and consistent policy been main
tanned.

and weak and have not got the old
indomitable spirit are very much MIS-
TAKEN" said Mr.. Hughes.
"They do not represent the coun-
try"
In his address at Grants Pass, Mr..
Hughes defined dominant Amer
icanism" as follows:
"We must have good drive ahead
and there is no reason why in this
country with its ability and natural re-
sources we should not have perma-
nent prosperity. To do that we must
look after our own. That is what l
mean by dominant Americanism-
able to take care of American inter-
ests.
an addition to that, we want also,
and you cannot have much of ma
tion without it, an intense regard for
our national honor and a disposition
to maintain it. | am solicitous to
preserve peace and good will.
1--WE Want the friendship of all the
nations of the world. They are very
friendly disposed to US. But if we
are to keep out of trouble we must re-
spect ourselves and others must re-
spect us. There is no safe guarantee
Of peace aNhen others begin to see
how much they can trifle with you
and 20 decide you won't stand it
They have got to know you mean
what you say, and in the things
which vitality concern you that you
IRE prepared to maintain them. That
Is good Americanisml It will give
us peace with honor. That is what
A. Aerica wants"
I'm his address at Roseburg, Mr..
Hughes said:
Loyalty to the Flag.
"You must have loyalty to the flag
and answering loyalty to the prin-
ciples of our institutions. You must
: have a keen appreciation of what
American opportunity means and
what you must do to preserve it. You
must preserve it by encouraging
every American achievement; you
must be sure we do not leave unused

TURNING EGGS IN INCUBATOR
Dozen or More Rolled over at Single
Operation by Means Of Device
Just Recently Invented.

One of the many little tasks which
must be looked after with more or
less regularity in the Matching OF
chickens in the incubator, is the turn
ing over of the eggs and upon this
depends to a great measure the sue
cess OF the Matching. The eggs must
be turned over regularly, carefully and
with great consideration for the feel
ings OF the chick which may or may
not be inside. If the operation is IN
sufficiently done it is just as disas-
trous as when it is OverdOne. 1t must
be done just right. If the operator IS
in undue haste the chances are that
whole batch of prospective chicks will
show their resentment OF the harsh
treatment by dying IN the she'll.
A recent invention provides for the
performance of this operation in the

DON'T NEGLECT YOUNG STOCK
Watch Feed Troughs and See That
All of Daily Rations Are Con-
sumed-ProVide Clean Water.

The failure to put gains on animals
during the growing period intended
for them by nature cannot be correct
ed by copious feeding at any later
time. Their growth has been stunted,
and rarely will they fully recover from
the earlier setback. Even when they
do it is a costly practice to put growth
and flesh on a stunted animal as com.
pared to what could have been done
when he was in a healthy and vigor-
Gus condition.
But it is not necessary that young
stock be fed as are fattening animals
Watch their feed troulhs and see that
all of the daily ratioLs are consumed.
Do not feed them in excess. but make
certain they are contented after each
feeding. See that the exercise lot is
used daily and that clean water is pro-
vided. The failure TO feed young stock
properly will open the way for future
serious troubles, and no stockman can
afford to encourage such a practice,
even during the winter months

RIGHT MARKET FOR POULTRY
During Holiday Season Many Poulter-
ers Shove Stock Forward, CeaV-
ing Their Pens Bare.

The holiday season offers the lars
est market for all kinds of poultry,
but then too, the supply is also very
large. as many poulterers shove their
poultry on to the market then, leav-
ing their pens bare for further selling.
This has its advantage in closing up
that part OF the business and getting
the price in the pocket and into use,
but sometimes all poultry is not in
its best condition at that time.
There often happens to DE late poul-
try. even in pretty we'll regulated
poultry yards. This late stock is not
as large and plump as the older stock
is. and hence 1t will not fetch the
price the heavier will, unless it may be
chickens that are ready for broilers.
These nearly always net big price
per pound, although the numbers OF
pounds is hardly plural, pound and
a half being about right.
