her, that she was young enough to

no hurry.

armed with some interesting facts ]
had obtained from q friend Of mine
who is an insurance agent. These
facts dealt with the marrying ages Of
women in various states, and showed
that the average bride is surprisingly
young. In other words, the woman
who does not marry before she is rs,
stands an astonishingly big chance Of
not marrying at all. told her that
out Of every six girls Of rs who re-
fused proposal. only one, on the av'

these figures in joking way. Thus
they served the double purpose Of Civ

0LD-FASHIONED HIGH BOOSTS
sprained Legs, spllnters or Gravel in
Feet and Other Troubles Are
Sure to Follow.

Too many poultry keepers yet build
old-fashioned high roosts. The tree
shelter instinct still induces every
fowl to fight for place on the highest
of the r00sts. Few you will notice,
want the low. For the large heavy
breeds, high roosts mean sprained
legs, spiinters or gravel In the feet,
and much suffering because of jump
ing from high roosts.
Turkeys often show up with bum
ble-feot or other kinds of lameness
because they roost so high. One can
also make the roosts too small.
Chickens are often lamed by giving
them roosts that allow the toes to go
clear around, and sink the claws in
the soft part of the sole. This is sure
to cause sores. or at least tender feet.
