KEEPING CHICKENS IN A PEN

The movement of a hen is primarily
for the purpose of securing food, and
secondarily, for protection for her
self and her nest.
When a hens appetite is satisfied
she settles down in some quiet place
and is content. If her appetite is not
satisfied, she is restless and has ten
dency to wander. Hens never wan
der aimlessly or for exercise as peo-
pie do, but wander in search of some
element not supplied in her feed ra-
ton.
The hen which is making eggs needs
more feed than the hen which is not
making eggs. This explains why the
hen which persists in getting out of
pen is usually good hen. She has
good appetite and determination
to satisfy it.
Experiments show the first and
most important factor in keeping hens
in a yard is to furnish all the ele-
ments of food necessary to supply the
hens needs. After the hens wants
are supplied, the next point to be
considered is the fence. A wire fence
with no object on top for the hens to
light on is the most satisfactory.
The average poultry fences are
from four to five feet high This is
high enough for some hens, while
others could go over fences three or
four times that height. In order to
prevent this, it is necessary either to
clip the feathers of one wing, or to
tie them so the bird cannot fly. Tying
is better for show birds, as clipped
wings disqualify in shows.
In the contests and experimental
pens we find at least ten hens go I'M
der the fence or through open gates
to one that goes over the fence. The
most important factor is furnishing
the proper conditions inside the yard
to supply the hens Missouri

ROOSEVELT, THE TRAITOR

Before the Elephant and Bull
Moose conventions at Chicago, Roose-
welt was a-buttin' out of his clothes
with "heroics", and he was going to
do mighty things, if we judge by his
demand upon the people that they
get "heroic" and take the world by
the scruff of the neck. But when the
Bull Moose had "heroicked" itself and
nominated Roosevelt for President, it
was found that the "heroic" Colonel
was "heroic" for personal purposes
alone, that when it came to the time
to lead the charge he had well de-
veloped "yaller streak" in his politi-
cal back bone. And then one goes
back to the days of the Spanish
American war and thinks of the fake
"heroism" of San Juan Hill, when it
is understood the negro troops saved
the day for the "heroic" Roosevelt
and his command, and he manufac-
tured way to claim the honor.
Roosevelt has, since June, attempt
ed to square himself with his delud-
ed followers. Can he put the job ov-
err by the November election? Not
IL Ine men WllOll he has uGCclNGu anu
betrayed have any sense of self-re-
spect and fighting blood. Having led
them to the cannon's mouth, the Col
onel has dug himself in and left his
forces to their fate, offering to the
men who followed him in all sincerity,
the chance to prove coward and on
suppliant knees getting nod of rec
ognition from the Republican party.
Some men have admired and whoop-
ed it up for Roosevelt for what they
have thought was bravery, but in the
supreme moment of his life, a mo-
ment which demanded that he stand
up and be counted as a man loyal
and true, it was the "yaller streak"
which showed, and Roosevelt deserted.
His brand of "heroics" proved to be
only of the gas bag kind, consisting
of talk, but baking at deeds. 1t is
this fake "hero" who is on the books
to call the Progressives to follow him
into the Republican party. Will they
do it, or will they be men cast in the
mold of courage and consistency p

DEMAND FOR MALE STENOG-
RAPHERS AND TYPEWRITERS

The United States Civil Service
Commission has been called upon to
certify eligibles for the positions car
ried in recent appropriation bills
passed by Congress, which provide for
a large number of new clerical posi-
tions in the War, Navy, and other de-
partments. Owing to the unusual de-
mand for male stenographers and
typewriters to fill these places, the
Commission held specially announc-
ed examination on September IL, and
will hold another September 26. In
addition to these examinations, the
stenographer and typewriter exami-
nation will be given at numerous
places throughout the United States
in the regular fall schedule of exam
nations, which are held during the
latter part of September and the ear
ly part of October; and another eX-
animation for male stenographer and
typewriter will be held on November
10. AS there are nearly 200 appoint
ments to be made from these eXami-
nations, the prospect of appointment
of young men who attain eligible av-
erages is good.
Information in regard to the exam
nations may be secured by address
ing the Commission at Washington or
its district secretaries at Boston,
Mass; Philadelphia, Pa; Atlanta,
Ga; Cincinnati, Ohio; Chicago, ILL.,;
st. Paul, Mimi; Seattle, Wash; San
Francisco, Cal; New York, N. Y;

OPEN LETTER TO HUGHES

Dear Mr.. Hughes:
You'll please excuse
My dullness if | Seem obtuse,
Or fail to properly enthuse,
When you break loose.
The papers give me all the news
And more advice than | can use;
But when | try to get your views
On public questions, then | lose
My patience, and sigh and say
ooh, what's the use!" i a.
| give the devil all his dues:
l rather liked you, Mr.. Hughes,
When you were a judge. But when
you choose
To be knocker and abuse
Our President, | must refuse
To read your "ooze."
The Democrats you still accuse;
Your lamentations l peruse.
These may alarm-they can't amuse,
And thinking men they won't confuse;
But altogether, Brother Hughes,
You're too profuse.
One final word before adieus:
If you would stand in Wilson's shoes
You'll have to try some other ruse-
For, by the gods, you're going to lose!
The Republican party will get its dues;
You're up against it, Mr..
Hughes.

EARLY ATTACKS WILL
ROUT HESSIAN FLY

Advanced columns of the Hessian
fly have emerged from the old I'M
plowed wheat stubble fields, and they
are now laying eggs on volunteer and
early sown wheat for a new genera
ton of flies.
In communities where nearly all the
farmers destroyed the infested wheat
stubble by blowing it under during
July and August, the ranks of the
Hessian fly have been so weakened and
depleted that the pest is not numerous
enough to do any material damage.
The wheat growers expect to deal
the fly a decisive blow by starving
him to death or waiting until the fly
free date to sow their wheat. If the
enemy can be kept from going into
winter quarters in early sown wheat,
a victory and wheat crop for the
farmer are assured.-T. ]. Talbert,

PROGRESS OF THE
FARM TO TABLE PLAN

One of the greatest movements in
augurated by Postmaster General AL
bert S. Burleson during his admins
tration in the postal service is the OPP
! Grafton of the Farm to Table" plan
as initiated by Postmaster Colin M.
Selph Of the st. Louis post office.
AS soon as the plan was authorized
Postmaster Selph immediately as
sumed personal supervision of its OPP
erations. He at once saw it's great
advantages to both the producer and
consumer and in one of the most re-
markable publicity campaigns con-
Quoted in this State, he, in very short
period of time, had forcibly brought
to the attention of the people TINS
added value of. the parcel post SER
vice.
The interest aroused was unusual
in extent and indicated that the plan
from the start was to be success
The news items furnished by Post
master Selph were published in hun
dreds of Missouri papers and copied in
newspapers and magazines from coast
to coast.
AS result of this effective cam
paign of publicity, the shipments Of
produce by United States Parcel Post
have grown from month to month I'M
til in st. Louis alone, from 100000 to
100000 packages of perishable mat
ter are handled annually.
The producer and consumer have
been brought into closer touch with
a fuller understanding and apprecia-
ton of the value of cooperation. Ship
pers have been instructed in the man
ner of packing and through the con-
slant vigilance on the part of Post
master Selph, employees are handling
packages with greater care so that
complaints have been reduced to a
minimum.
The objection to the parcel post sys-
tenn that was formerly raised by many
merchants throughout the country
has practically been removed as the
merchants have become more ac-
quainted with the real purpose of the
service. No effort has been spared
by Postmaster Selph to make it plain
to them that it was the intention of
the Farm to Table" plan to assist all
classes of business as well as the
farm; that while the producer ships
his products to the city, he received
cash in return which he spends with
his local merchant and instead of
taking money out Of the community
it increases the supply of actual cash
1t is also found that in numerous in
stances producers are now shipping
70 the city by United States Parcel
Post a great many of their farm pro-
ducts which. for lack of ready local
market, would actually be wasted, so
that the EARN to Table" plan serves
a many-fold purpose by providing the
farmer with a ready cash market who
in turn supplies his various wants at
the store of his local merchant to
whom he gives his cash in return and
it blesscs the homes of the city con-
sumcrs by having delivered at their
door the best that the land affords.
Postmaster Selph has prepared
classified lists of producers and con-
sumers which he promptly sends to
any address if application is made.
