AVERAGE Flour Supply.

The stocks OF -four leld n tA-S CITY
are said to be about what they usually
are at this season Of the year. One
iobber estimates that there IS suffi-
Gent -four to keep the city in this sta
pie for a month.
The fresh fruit situation, the stocks
of which are supplied in much the
same way as the meats, would proba-
bly, last as long or longer than the
meats. Like meats, weekly deliveries
OF fruits are made, which wouldsbe en-
tirely shut off in case Of a strike with
no alternate means of making up the
shortage.
General Grocery Stocks Large.
More consolation for the timorous is
found IN the general grocery stock sit
rlation than in any other phase OF the
local food supply when considered with
relation 10 a probable railroad strike.
Il is estimated that this city could feed
itself with the staples and ordinary
package and canned groceries for a
period OF six months.
This is due partly because Of the for
tunate circumstance that the city has
one wholesale grocery and grocery
mill. both of which have large stocks.
In addition, It is said, retail grocers
ere carrying very large stocks.
This city could stand a siege Of six
months, if necessary" Manager w. 7.
smith, OF the Letts-Fletcher Company,
said in summarizing the situation.
The grocers are carrying Terv large
stocks. especially of canned goods and
staple lines. It IS true that some arti-
cles OF food would run out in a short
time, but there is plenty OF the COM
mon articles Of food to last a long
time"
Fuel Supply More Uncertain.
There is less certainty about the fuel
supply because Of the uncertainty OF
The weather. 1t was the judgment of
one or two dealers that with normal
weather there probably would be no
serious fuel shortage in less than a
month or perhaps longer. But if UNI
,easonable weather sets in the coal in

stock might be exhausted before that
time. 1t Is certain that some dealers
would be sold out in much less than
month.

YOU can set the eggs and depend upon

use one male with ten females. Lang

YOU can use one male to twice the
above number OF females. 1t is often
advisable for a poultryman who has
much business and a great demand for
Matching eggs to mate a hundred or
two hons in the general flock with

duced price from this. But his choicest
matings should be made in separate

Next Delivery Tuesday.

In case the railroad strike does not
spread to Iowa before Tuesday, the
next delivery Of meat locally will be on
that day If the strike IS called on
railroad operation thru this city next
week. the Tuesday delivery will be the
last that will come By rail until the
strike IS off. With that delivery the
local supply viii probably De sufficient

Number Of Varieties.

\ One variety. properly handled. is
enough for any man on any farm
some persons fail because they started
with too many different varieties. They
expect to try them all out and then de-
termine which they like best, but 1t
took so much housing, so much extra
labor, so much extra fencing, and extra
expense to keep all these varieties sep

could have actually raised more poui-
try and succeeded. whereas they failed
in perhaps one short year.
BY having one variety one can do
away with most of ones fencing, and
thereby give more free range and the
poultry can be raised under more nat
ural conditions. This will insure bet
ter health and greater net profit Con-
tining ones efforts to one variety VIII
more nearly insure success.

variety of game. The logical conclu-
sion is that they are shooting at

and which have been driven south

stormy weather. There is no spring
shooting in Iowa under the federal
statute. The only open season is from
Sept. 10 to Dec. 81. The county has
game wardens, altho not under federal
control. These game wardens, II ac-
tive. may get proof, If they do not
make arrests, that can result in ar
rests later. for under the federal law
prosecutions may be made within three
years after the offense is committed.
If any one is convicted Of illegal
shooting under the federal law it will.
be no joke. A heavy fine or peniten-
tiary sentence for shooting a duck
would not be pleasant, nor would 1t be
worth the effort.
