III the worlds series this fall, there is
every reason to believe thar all at
tendance records will be broken. Not
Flnce 1910, when the Cubs bowed to
the Athletics. has the second largest
city OF the United States entertained
a worlds series. Once or twice Chi
cago fandom had dreams of getting
in on the big affair only to awaken
about the first of October to find that
it had been only draw. These
hopes and disappointments have
served to whet appettes TO the greedy
stage. The White Sox have become
great favorites thru their splendid
work of the last two seasons, so that
there is little DOUBT the White Soy
park will be packed every time the
Giants are there. This means an at
tendance of approximately forty
thousand.

but none the less promising. The
Giants always have been great pullers
in the worlds series, participating in
that record breaking series OF 1912,

While neither the White Sox park
or the Polo grounds will seat the A.
600 person who saw the fifth game of
the 1916 series at Boston, the largest
crowd that ever saw a baseball game,
the probability that the series this year
will go the entire seven games is
what brightens the prospect of a
record attendance. It took eight
games to bring out 251,000 in the
1912 series, the second game of the
series resulting in a to s tie in

tNACfCiduu Ildlu Oedlcr.)
1t is the duty of every American
Ia take thought of how he can keep
in good health. Sickness will de-
crease the national efficiency by just
so much, whether it be among SOL
diers or noncombatants. Steps that
will insure one against disease are
among the best forms of prepared
ness.
Health of nation at war or at
peace depends in large measure
upon its food. A nation cannot
thrive and be healthy unless it has
good food and plenty of it. The
mobilization of agricultural products
mus go hand and hand with the mob
ilization of factories and munitions.
Nearly half of the body building
food and 70 per cent. of the sus-
tanning food on American tables is
derived from grain, according to the
Life Extension Institute. These
grains are to be the manufacturing
industries. The wanton destruction
of food is as much of a traitorous
act as the destruction of arms and
ammunition. In the last ANALYSIS, it
is the well-fed nation that will pre-
vail.
The housewife must be economical
in the preparation of food and must
cook it with skill, so that meals will
be tasty and agreeable.
Vaccination against typhoid and
smallpox are excellent preparedness
steps. 1t is estimated that within
the past ten years Germany has
saved enough men from smallpox to
offset her terrible losses at Verdun.
The death toll in this country from
preventable disease is far greater
than any likely war losses. Fewer
men were killed in the Civil War
on both sides than have died from ty-
phoid fever alone in the United
States, in the last ten years.
Any effort that tends to reduce the
infant mortality rate will help re-
pair the wastages of war.

THE NEW COTTON COUNTRY.

In the Imperial Valley of Califor-
MIA they are making fortunes raising
cotton this year-sudden dramatic
fortunes. Everything about the I'm
perial Valley seems to have the dra-
matte quality; its story would make
q good moving picture. In 1900 it
was blistering desert where a buzz
yard could scarcely live. And then
the government harnessed the Colo
RADIO River and the the desert was
veined with irrigating canals and
ploughed and planted, and for the
first time since the primordial floods
subsidized tint of green and growing
things spread over the valley.
Cotton arrived in 1906. 1t came in
the shape of a box of seed under the
seat Of a wagon driven by Texas
homesteader. He asked why they
didn't raise cotton thereabouts, and
they said because it wouldn't grow.
And so being from Texas, which is
something like Missouri, he planted
his little store of cottonseed and it

Furthermore, the next year it came

The Texans little cottonfield
spread like drop of butter on hot

desert in it's fleece. And 1T brought
to the men who owned the land
more hard iron dollars than ever
they had seen before. There are
fifty thousand acres of cotton in the
Imperial Valley this year and there
are going to be many more next year.
And even better than the cotton

ed a dark color extends around the
bottom to a height of nearly three
feet, the outer wall being in line
with the widest part of the win

POULTRY IN CRATES
Sending Chickens to Market Not Prop.
erly Fattened, Is WastefuI Prac-

Sending chickens to market which
have not been properly fattened is
wasteful practice. The weight of
healthy, well grown chickens can be
increased from 25 to so per cent in
two weeks by proper feeding. Three
hundred and fifty to four hundred
pounds of mash moistened with skim
milk or butter milk and properly fed
to good fowls will produce 100 pounds
of poultry meat in from II to IA days.
Proper feeding of the chickens be.
fore marketing improves the quality
cf the flesh. "Crate fed" and "milk
fed" are synonymous with "high quaf.
ity."
Chickens which have been milk fed
in crates should sell for from 2 to 8
cents above the market price for un,
fattened chickens. At this price, they
are cheaper TO the consumer ON ac.

SUITABLE HOUSE FOR FOWLS
Most Essential That Hens Be Protect
ed From lnclement Weather.
and Their Enemies.

One of the most essential things in
poultry keeping, Is TO have a suitable
house which will protect the fowls
from inclement weather and from
their natural enemies. 1t is well un-
derstood that no two farms will pre-
sent exactly the same conditions; for
instance, one farmer will desire to
keep one hundred hens while another
may want many more or less. Then
again, some farms will present one
kind of soil, whereas on other farms
the character of the soil and drainage
are entirely different. Some farmers
will desire a house which presents an
attractive appearance, whereas on
other farms poultry houses will be SO
located that they are not conspicuous,
and hence the matter of appearance is
of little concern.
1t must be remembered that from
the standpoint of the hen, appearance
makes very little difference, but the
house must be so built and so ar
ranged that 1t will be comfortable
place for the hens to live; otherwise
they will not thrive and production
will not be satisfactory. On many
farms the hens are not provided with
a house constructed especially for
them but are housed in an old building
originally made for some other pur-
pose.
