GOING TO FRANCE
DIR. SIN. B. Smith Leaves For France
Very Soon to do ChiIdren's
Welfare Work,

DR.. S. M. B. Smith and family will
leave for Ivy, Virginia next Satur-
day evening, and later the doctor will
leave for Europe and will be "some-
where in France" in the Red Cross
service doing Children's Welfare work.
The American Red Cross mas organ
lied infant welfare work in France,
and from all indications this work is
urgently needed throughout all
Trance. Problems due to underfeed-
ing, she'll shock, tuberculosis, alco-
holism in children, ETC., all are clamor-
ing to be solved and remedied. 1t is
probable that great deal of this
work will be carried on in children's
hospitals. Previous to this time, dur
ing the war, American physicians have
not been allowed in civil practice, but
have done their work by virtue of mil
itary appointment Now the French
government has amended its practice
law and the physicians of the Red
Cross will be allowed to practice
among the population and to operate
such hospitals as may seem necessary.
The Council of National Defense of
America has recommended that physi-
clans teaching pediatrics or devot-
ing themselves to problems of infant
and child welfare continue in such
service either at home or abroad. This
new field is entirely pediatric and a
call for men of medical training and
experience along the lines of the care
of children. The War Council of the
Red Cross has sent to France a cons
mission to survey the field, etc.
Among the prominent doctors of our
country, who have already gone over
are DR.. julius Parker Sedgwiek, pro-
fessor of diseases of children at the
University of Minnesota. DR.. ]. Nor
ris Slemons, professor at Yale uni
versity, and DR.. William Palmer Lu-
cas-, professor at the University of
California, have also gone to France
to look over the field and make ar
rangements.
This is an opportunity for pedia-
trists to serve where their special
training will be of much value, and
it is also a patriotic desire of these
particular physicians.
DR.. Smith will stay in France at
least six months and probably longer.
Those going over to do this great work
are expected to sign up for a year,
but DR.. Smith was privileged to sign
up for six months with a possibility
of remaining longer.
Mrs. Smith and children will re-
side in Ivy, Virginia, during the doc
tors absence from this country, and
will live near the home of her sister,
Mrs: Frank Kollock, and family. The
children will attend school at Ivy.
DR.. and Mrs. w. A. Fricke will oc-
cupy the Smith home here until their
return to Wausau.
Dr. Smiths office will remain open
for at least a couple of months and
possibly-longer, after his leaving the
city.
The Pilot and DR.. Smith and his
family's many friends in Wausau and
vicinity wish him a very pleasant and
profitable trip and that his family will
enjoy their stay in Virginia, and all
here will be looking anxiously for
ward to their safe return in Wausau.

HATCHCHICKENS EARLY
Fresh Eggs Win Be Scarce Next
Fall and Winter Remedy Is
in Hands of the Poultry Man.

| Did it ever occur to you that nature
requires her children to take an annual
vacation? She does. and nowhere do
human beings puzzle their brains over
this fact more than when the hens be-
gin their yearly holiday. This vaca-
tion is technically called the ''molting
season" 1t begins during the late
summer The hens stop laying and
change their suits of feathers for new
ones. Usually they consume three or
four months in the process. Most of
apt to overlook the fact that a very
important feature of the molting period
is that egg laying stops. We are un-
reasona bic and expect the hens to lay
all the time. When the hens take this
vacation new laid fresh eggs are scarce
and remain scarce until the pullets
Matched during the proceeding spring be-
gin to lay.
The remedy is very simple, and is un-
der the control of the poultry man. The
first step is to have chickens hatched
early, so that the pullets begin to lay
when the hens begin to molt. This is
not difficult. Pullets of the American
breeds begin laying at about months
of age. Leghorn pulIets begin when
about months old. North of the Ohio
River this means that all Matching must
be over with by May 1st at the latest.
The best plan is to have the chickens
coming at intervals during March and
April. The earliest Matched pullets
will. of course, begin to lay first. If
any of them begin to molt, their places
will be taken by later ones and steady
supply of eggs will be more certain.
The difficulty in the way of the
practical application of this matter is
that so many poultry keepers are de-
pendent on hens for Matching. AS long
as we have late hatched chickens we
viii have late settlers. The poultry
keepers who wants to change from late
Matching to early Matching must there
fore either get broody hens from some
one else or use and incubator. After
he has Changed the dates" on his
flock he will have no trouble, especially
with the American breeds.
Every progressive poultry raiser who
has tried it, every agricultural college
and the Government, have data show
ing that early Matching will produce
fall and winter layers In the Govern
ment flocks during the past winter the
pullets of the entire flock averaged
over 20 per cent in egg production, and
some hens made 35 per cent. That means
in plain language, that the egg pro-
duction for all the pullets was one egg
daily for every five hens, and for some
hens one egg daily for every three hens.
This, too, when fresh eggs sold up to
Is cents per dozen in Washington. This
could not have been done except by
early Matching
