At the average market price, the
value of poultry and eggs annually
produced in Ohio amounts to $35, ,000,-

however, by adhering to more efficient
practices. For instance, one of the
most important things to consider in
the poultry business from the view
point of profit is that of keeping the
proper number of birds in the farm
flock. Under ordinary conditions, it
is held that 300 fowls represent the
best number. 1t should be large

be so large as to interfere with more
profitable enterprises. Three hun

MEET DEMANDS OF DAIRYMEN

High prices of dairy feeds and the
present price of market milk have
stimulated a close study of the most
efficient dairy practices. So keen has
been the interest that an insistent de-
mand has been made upon the Ohio
State University College of Agricul-
ture to provide instruction on the
farm to the hundreds of dairy farm
ers and others directly interested. In
an effort to offer general instruction
in dairying, the Agricultural College
Extension Service has just issued the
first lessons of a correspondence
course on that subject. Enrolment

THE BLUE PARADISE.

The attraction at the Valentine
theatre, Toldeo, next Sunday and
Monday evenings, will be "The Blue
Paradise" offered under the manage
ment of the Messrs. Shubert. This,
the latest of Viennese operettas, was
the big musical hit of last season in
New York where it played at the
Casino Theatre from July 1915 to the
same month of this year.
'The Blue Paradise" is an Austrian
composition, the original libretto be-
ing by Leo Stein and the American
version by Edgar Smith, long recog-
nlzed as one of the best of American
fibrettists. The music is by Edmund
Eysler, the lyrics by Herbert Rey-
pervision of Benrimo.
The story of ''The Blue Paradise"
concerns principally one Rudolph
Stoeger, the son of a wealthy Aus
Crlan gentleman. Rudolph is alto
gether too fond of visiting the Blue
Paradise Inn, where with several boon
companions he spends most of his
waking hours. His father decides
that Rudolph shall go to America.
Twenty-four years later Rudolph
having accumulated goodly fortune,
comes back to visit the scenes of his
youth, and to seek his sweetheart
whom he has not heard from in all
that time. He is astounded to see
what he thinks in his former sweet
heart but it proves to be her daugh-
ter. Then complications come thick
and fast.
The Messrs. Shubert promise an Ella
borate production of ''The Blue Para
disc" and an excellent east, some of
the members of which were in the or
iginal production at the Casino Thea
tire year and a half ago. The COM
pany includes among its numbers
John E. Young, Robert G. Pitkin,
Shep Camp, George Everett, Fred
Harten, Sam Hearn, Cecilia Hoffman,
Helen Eley and Louise Kelley There
will be a large chorus of attractively
costumed girls and good looking
young men.
Sloan's Liniment Eases Pain.
Sloan's Liniment is first thought of

and soothes without rubbing. Cleaner
and more effective than mussy plas-
ters or ointments. For rheumatic
aches, neuralgia pain and that grippy
soreness after colds, Sloan's Lini-
ment gives prompt relief. Have a
bottle handy for bruises, strains
and all external pain For the thou

posure are relieved by Sloan's Lini-

BOY NOW
RULES BIG STORE
Man Who Began at AItman's at
So a Week Is Raised to Di-
reCtorate.

NEW YORK, Feb. l.-There's a man
named Richard jackson in New York.
They say Of Jackson that he was never
heard to speak of yours truly, No. ].
jackson stops at Altmans, the store
that doesn't have TO put It's name over
the door. He has been stopping there
for twenty-eight years.
The other day the eleven Altman di-
rectors got together to elect a twelfth
director. All Of them had been cash
boys, messengers, clerks or drivers
when they first went to AItman's. The
president Of the company, himself, MI
chacl Friedsam. had started as a mos
senger boy. Therefore no one was SUR
prised when Mr.. Friedsam got up and
said:
Gentlemen, no driftwood. We burn
our own fuel here. That vacant chair
has got to be filled from Altman ma
terial. Go down TO the basement after
II II you want to, but don't go out
side these four walls"
So the eleven directors did go down to
the basemsnt-to the basement of twen-
ty-eight years ago. that is. And they
brought uD their old working mate jack
son. Richard Jackson.
jackson Is forty-two years old. He
looks about thirty-siX. When he was
fourteen he got a job as cash boy in
the depa partment store at Sixth avenue
and Eighteenth street. Altman's. To-
day he is n director OF the firm and
manager of the advertising depart
ment
As matter Of fact jackson wasn't
worth a cent when he got that place
as cash boy. But they had to pay him
something, so they paid him y week.
| Al the time he WAS mostly red hair and
| freckles. Today he is mostly efficiency.
