This seems to be quite Il satisfactory
way. 1t has advantages and disad-
vantages. A car of poultry shipped to
New York city from Kansas City
raises the price per pound from 312
to cents, and before the consumer
gets it, 1t is raised l " to cents more
per pound. Yet the results obtained
are usually in favor of this method of
marketing. Large commission con-
Germs have adequate facilities for han
ding both live and dressed poultry,
thus assuring good care of the prod
uct until it has been sold. 1t is es-
sential that the product be the best
grade possible to get the best results.

After ii rati4~. ."nS period OF i|-
tirement the lace jabot has returned
from the realm of forgotten finery. 1t
made quiet and almost unheralded
entry a few weeks ago and Immediate
ly achieved decisive hit with thou
sands Of devotees Of uncovered th-oats.
Today 1t Is the darling of fashion.
The "stock" jabot with high, stock
collar and falling flOunce or cascade
Of net-top lace, has reached the pin
nacle of success and brought all of its
kindred into the limelight.
Not having worn jabots for so long,
we appreciate just how enchanting
they are, but are hardly prepared for
the extravagantly high prices that are
asked for even the simpler styles. From
two to five dollars is demanded for
well-made jabots Of fine net or good
net-top laces. The cheaper nets and
laces appear to lose their sheerness
and to thicken up with washing. When
this happens their charm is gone.
1t Is not the price of lace but the
price of labor that places jabots in
The class Of extensive luxuries. Wom-

BEST SHIPMENT OF POULTRY
Many Processes Gone Through Before
Product Reaches consumer-keep
All CuIls at Home.

Before poultry reaches the consum-
er, it has to go through many proc
esses: From the farm the poultry
is marketed as 1t runs; large, small.
fat, lean, sick, and deformed. Very
little attention Is given to the quality
of the product yet it would be money
in the pocket of the farmer We're he
to keep out the culls for his own use
or dispose Of those which were unfit
for food, elsewhere beside on the mar
ket.
The shipping Of poultry to a COM
mission merchant or firm Is quite q
common practice near large cities

POULTRY
FATS
GROW BR0ILERS FOR MARKET
Early coekereis Not Intended for
Breeders Should Be Fattened Up
and Sold.

Early cockerels, unless kept for
breeding purposes, are best sold for
broilers or flyers.
On the average farm 1t is not prac-
teal, because of rush of work, to hatch
chickens extremely early, hence they
do not reach the market early enough
in the spring to bring the best prices.
The price, of course depends upon the
market and the demand.
Growing broilers for market is spe-
cialized industry and is not always
profitable. On the large markets broil-
ers are classified as small, medium and
large. They weigh from three-quarters
of pound to a pound and one-half
each.
Young chickens as sold by farmers
are frequently not properly fattened
no attempt being made to get maxi
mum returns. Coufining broilers in
crates holding from six to eight birds
and feeding an exclusive diet of wet
mash, composed Of cornmeal and
wheat middlings mixed with sour milk
or buttermilk the consistency of bat
ter, gives best results. but broiiers
thus fattened lose weight quickly
when shipped alive.
For the farmer this method is
usually impracticable. A better method
is that of combining young coc!lerels in
groups of 25 to 30 In small pen where
their exercise is restricted. Feeding the
birds cracked corn helps the quality of
the meat and Increases the weight con-

PICK FEATHERS FROM GEESE
Operation Should Not Be Performed
Until Warm Weather Sets In,
Usually About May 20.

Geese should not be picked until
warm weather sets in, usually about
the Goth of May. In handling geese
they should always be grasped by the
neck, not by the feet and held with
the back toward the person in order
to prevent them from striking with
their wings.
Draw stocking over the birds head
while picking. Do not remove the
feathers from the wings, shoulders and
back as they are needed to protect
the bird from the sun and rain.

LEGHoRN IS MUCH IMPROVED
Tendency Has Been to Breed Larger
Fowls and Still Retain Laying
Characteristics.

The Leghorns today are a much bet

The tendency has been to breed larger
birds and still retain all their charac-

Der of eggs.
With larger bodies also has come the
production Of larger eggs which is an

John Burroughs was eighty years
old April 8. Strong, alert, and as
straight as the straightest of the trees
he loves, he is a shining example of
the good that lies in the gospel of the
out-of-doors. In his young manhood
Mr.. Burroughs was by turns school
teacher, treasury clerk and banker,
aminer. But sedentary occupation had
no charm for him. 1t went, as he says,
against the grain" He took to the
woods, the fields and the hills. Three
hours every forenoon he gives to his
indoor study. The rest of his time he
is in the open. "Old men are always
pessimistic," Mr.. Burroughs has just
said in an interview. "but / believe in
evolution, and l believe that we always
progress" The man who reads that
lesson in nature reads nature Alright.

HIST ROOSEVELT

The act of leaving his train while
bound from Florida to New York for
the purpose of complimenting Presi-
dent Wilson upon his call to congress
to declare war on Germany, also to
express appreciation of the fact that
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, had
swatted an insulting pacifst, was typ
ical of Theodore Roosevelt and in
creased membership in his legion of
admirers throughout the union.
Teddy Roosevelt may be erratic in
some ways-all big men are accused
of beign erratic or too conservative
but he's two-fsted American citizen.
That is a fact that no one can get
away from and that few wish to get
away from.
Theodore, in short, is "just Roose-
yelt."-Tampa Times.

TO RICH YOUNG MEN

Rich young men who fail to enlist
for this war will yield to weakness
that will follow them all their lives.
This is war in which victory means
the extinction of autocracy throughout
the world, while defeat means the de-
Gtruction of our liberties. 1t is a war
as ennobling as the war of the revolt
ton or the war against rebellion. It
furnishes an opportunity for ennob-
ling sacrifice such as inspired the cru
saders.
It is an accepted axiom of war that
the actual combatants should be young
men who have not yet incurred the
responsibility of supporting a family,
and for this reason The Tribune has
led the movement for universal service
of the youngest men who, because of
t1;i2ir very youth, have not incurred
family obligations nor have become
important in the industrial field.
In addition to the broad stratum Of
4 l.. upon WHOII 1dih'iIC9 e1iC IoI W
pendent for support nor does industry
lean for skilled labor or direction, are
the rich young men in the EOS and ear
" 3Os. These men are more free to
serve. than poor boys of q, because in
the case of permanent injury they are
assured of a comfortable future, and
the time spent in the army cannot
even. be said to interfere with their
starting private careers.
The rich have not an especially good
war record. Many of our greatest for
tunes were founded by stay-at-homes
while nobler souls were fighting fol
the Union. The muster rolls of the
Spanish war contain hardly a well
known name. The Mexican moblliza
ton of last summer saw small out
pouring of the well to do, but one in
significant compared with the enlist
ments of the less fortunate.
Enlistments so far for this war havt
been disappointing, but most disap
pointing have been the failure of tn:
young rich men to respond. Unless
start is made and made soon, We mus
look forward to white feathers as CO.
tillon favors.

whereas the congress of the Unit

German government which has been
thrust upon the United States is here

Whereas it is provided by section

lows:
Whenever there is declared war
between the United States and any

over, earnestly appeal to all American

The Day Of Choice

Fair the slopes Of 0livet
Under sunset skies.
Like a jewel richly set,
Dayid's city lies.
Down the road from Bethany
Pours a joyous throng.
On a royal ass rides he
Whom they hail with song.
Palms they wave beside his way,
Cloaks before him fling.
BLESSED he who comes today
Master, Saviour, Kingw
Through the eager pilgrim press.
Toward the gate and through,
Rides the one whose name they
bless.
What comes he to do?
Comes a King to claim his throne,
In a kingdom fair?
10, he seeks a place alone
For an hour of prayer!
Shall he take a rank today -
Such as they acclaim?
Can he crush the hopes that they
Build upon his name9 H.
Who can knoW the prayer he
prays
In the place apart?
Who can know what passion sways
ALI the while his heart?
From the temple, 10, comes he,
And his face is set
Back again toward Bethany,
Over Olivet.
In the pilgrim host, dismay
And a sense of loss,
And the one who rides away
Sees afar a cross!
Yet the choice that they decried-
How the ages ring: -a
BLESSED who was crucifed-
Saviour, Master, Kingw
