ELECTRIC LIGHT & MORE EGGS

Many poultrymen of the Lynden district who are
unusually successful advise the of artificial
light to make the hens scratch longer these dark
DAYS.
Electric lights in your poultry buildings will make
the hens scratch longer, and get the exercise they
need. During summer weather, they get this eXer-
else without resorting to artificial means, but you
need the lights in winter. We can guarantee you
an increased egg production if you electric
lights as results everywheres are the same.
With eggs selling at 60 cents dozen wholesale in
Seattle you simply can't afford to be without the
lights They will pay for themselves in short
time even with feed costs high.
And electric light is absolutely safe. You are in
no danger of fire, which may easily result from a.
gasoline other lighting SYSTEM as has been DEM
Onstrated in the past around LINDEN
Don't delay. Get an estimate from us today on the
cost of installing the lights at your place.

The Cow And Prosperity.

1t has been wisely said that the
COW is a promoter of prosperity
This is so, absolutely, whether the
COW be a dairy cow or beef cow
In every section in this country, OF
In the world, 80 far as we are able
to know, agricultural prosperity
has followed only when the COW.
either of beef or dairy breeding
has been largely patronized. 1t is
we'll understood that those feed
crops which will maintain the beef
breeding COW or which will produce
good flow of milk are of more GER
tain growth than market grain
crops. This is fundamental prin-
cipal which is we'll understood aud
which will be recognized by every
farmer who gives it a moment of
consideration.
We have several times said that
farming is a poor business if sim
gle year of short rainfall be permit
ted to upset the success of several
years past, or possibly of lifetime.
The "off" year will not upset the
farmer and cause him to dispose
of his little live stock accumulation,
If he has maintained we'll balanced
farm operations. If he has been
sufficiently thoughtful of the future
to have a years supply of feed
ahead, and if he has diligently and
intelligently endeavored to grow a
crop of those feeds adapted to the
conditions applying in his locality
and which are recognized to be the
most certain producers during a
dry season,h he will be able to main.
tain his herd.
1t is a serious mistake to at any
time be placed in a position where
by the herd must be sold. Dozens
of farmers have this year been
placed in that position. We are
not criticizing these men; however.
we are imploring them to look out
for the next "off" year and if pos
sible avoid a repetition of this year S
experiences.-Kansas Farmer.
