The first OF several varieties Of Pol
ish was the White Crested Black. From
these the Dutch breeders originated all
the other varieties. including the sub
jcct Of the accompanying illustration,
the White Polish. They have immense
crests, the larger the better, provided
they are round and full. In size and
shape they are much like the White
Leghorn. but have blue or white legs
and white skin.
They are gentle and thrive well In
limited quarters, provided the soil Is
dry and the fowls are kept away from
dampness. The hens lay large numbers
OF white shelled eggs and are consid-
| cred non sitters. The chicks are rather
delicate unless they are kept dry
| Dampness is fatal to young Polish.

FATTEST OF WAR BABIES"

Stockholm, Sweden, April 21.-Of al
the war babies" In sweden--and there
are a good many of all kinds-the fat
test continue to be the shipping COM
panies. The earnings of some COM
pare very favorably with the best that
America has to show in the line OF in
d,fstries fostered by the war.
One shipping company. with cap
ital Of $4,000 crowns. has declared two
dividends Of 100 per cent each. and still
another hundred In the form OF one
free share Of stock for every old one.
It's earnings for 1916 were $4,000
crown, against l94.500 in 1915. Other
shipping companies have paid divi-
dends Of 20 to 200 per cent.

Big Eaters Are Heavy Layers.

The appetite and general actions OF
hen indicate her ability to lay a
goodly number OF eggs. The hard
working hen Is almost always n high
producer. She is first off the roost in
the morning and last to go to bed. She
Is heavy feeder. since high produce
tiveness necessitates the ability to as
simulate large quantities OF food. The
moor layer is generally Of the opposite
type. She is inactive, relatively
email eater and spends large portion
o' her tine on ~" rerches or in the
dNr'1coed portions OF the pen.
Pale shanks and Ear Lobes.
II practically all yellow skinned va
rieties Of poultry the shanks, beak and
region around the vent undergo a
change in color when the hers are in
heavy laying. Instead Of the rich yell
low color that is associated with these
parts in the yellow skinned varieties.
there is a rapid fading Of color in the
regions mentioned during heavy pro-
duction. This change OF color is so con-
sistent that it is possible to use 1t as q
basis for selecting good and poor pro-
ducers. From various observations re-
recently made along these lines, the
lowing interesting correlations have
been noted:
The color Of the vent appears to be
the most accurate indication of produ-
cling ability. Records made from 37l
birds from November /. 1914, to Octo-
Der 81. 1915. showed es birds had pale
vents at the end OF October when the
records We're made. Over 30 per cent
OF these 9s birds produced from l4O
to $50 eggs, and only per cent Of
them laid less than 40 eggs. The aver
age production OF the 273 remaining
hens, which had yellow vents when the
| observations were taken, was approxl-
matelY 135 eggs. and the average for
| the 9S having pale vents was 1871 eggs.
| This gives a difference Of Sc eggs per
| bird in favor of the pale vents.
In the test there We're several differ
| ent breeds and it is interesting to COM
pare the production of the various
breeds as. shown by the color Of the
| vent. In the Plymouth Rock group
S36 per cent Of the birds having pale
vents laid from 40 to $50 eggs; lG4
| per cent OF the birds showing pale
vents produced l4O eggs or less: 70

SAVE A LIFE.

Save life. This slogan rings almost
with futility today, with the entire
world bending every effort toward the
destruction OF humanity. Yet it is the
humanitarian slogan of the Red Cross.
The universe is fully aware Of the
response given by the people Of the
United States to their country's call
for funds with which to carry on the
war. The subscription to the first
Issue Of the liberty loan guarantees
the success OF the further issues. Cold
blooded as it may sound, this money
will probably be used for destruction
of life.
The country is now calling for funds
for the saving of life. President VIII
son has issued a proclamation desig-
mating the current week Red Cross
week, and urging US to give to this
noble work that was conceived only
in the loftiest impulses Of human
mind. The Red Cross finds a way to
ease pain OF those who have fallen in
the fray. The Red Cross nurse, can
well be likened to a ministering angel
whose touch serves to leaven battle
acquired tortures.
To go on the Red Cross must have
funds. The task of raising them is
no easy one. Washington is asked to
give half a million dollars. Washing
ton will do it, if the people will only
realize that war is calling and If the
realization will compass every phase
Of the meaning OF war.
Remember that your greatest pos
sible gift is needed, but that no
amount will be too small for accept
ance. Rich and poor must unite in
this cause. Let the same spirit which
made the liberty loan such an un-
questionable success, again touch the
hearts and pocketboeks of Washing
tonians. It is the supreme obligation
Of the week, an obligation which
should be removed even before the
week is over.
There is no need to tell how. In
other columns of the paper convenient
methods Of giving are explained in de-
tail, methods that enable the newsboy
to give with the banker.
SAVE A LIFE by giving to the Red
Cross.

II. Export Board Of Control.

The United States has used the en-
barge sparingly. Not since the war
OF 1872 has the nation exercised It.
It Is a two-edged weapon. and we have
never brandlshed It except in cases of
dire necessity.
It Is revived In 1911 in this nation on
the most imposing scale ever known in
history. The export bars Of the British
Empire put up since war broke out
Will seem puny in comparison to the
drastic control which the American
government plans to exercise over
American commerce on the seven seas.
The control is necessary. Our food
stocks must be protected. Protected
they will be. for our own use and that
Of our allies: protected from the specu-
iator in exports and the dealer in fu-
lures. Rationing and apportionment
OF our supplies to the entente nations
probably will be necessary within the
next six months. The neutrals which
hitherto have had unhampered access
to our food markets may as well face
the fact now that such access will be
theirs no longer; at least. not while
the war continues. It may be neces-
sary to cut them on altogether.
The embargo is an essential element
in food control. It supplements and
reinforces the domestic administration
which is embraced in the Lever bill.
and it is meet and proper that Herbert
c. Hoover will be the guiding and
directing genius OF the new Board of
Export Control as well as of the food
administration at home. Through
the union of these two functions Mr..
Hoover becomes an autocrat second
only in power to the President of the
United States.
A cZar-like control, over shipping and
cargo space Is involved; and those en-
who are reported to have been busy
buying up options on grain in the
West and Southwest are due for
trip up Salt River. The American gov
ernment has been aware of their ac-
tivities 1t has been entirely confident
of its power to deal with them. Their
contracts will be cancelled on their
hands so far as they conflict with the
interest of the American government
and its allies.
The United States has undertaken to
save France and Great Britain from
the first effects of worldwide food
shortage which. within six months, is
going to he the outstanding feature of
the international situation. Beyond
the needs OF our own people our first
duty is to them. We will leave no
stone unturned to perform the duty.

When the very comprehensive rail-
road systems of Bolivia are COM
pleted or are well under way, as
tney will be soon, because American
capital is assured. then there will be
larger production of tin and there
may be additions TO tin smelling
plants in the United States. But It is
OF great economic interest and inn
portance to the United States taht
since the war began the Guggen-
helms have established a tin smelter
at Perth Amboy, which really lies upon
the harbor of New York. while the
William-Harvey corporation Is about
to erect one Of the largest smelter
plsnts in the world upon deep water.

Sims In Command?

The British admiralty has taken
the pennant of our American admiral
in Dondon-Rear Admiral Sims-and
swung it above the joint allied fleets
in Irish waters, according to reports
from London yesterday.
1t is more than an idle compliment
to American naval efficiency. 1t is
something of which the United States
navy can be proud, for 1t is no mean
honor. The shipping lanes running
through the Irish Sea to the broad
expanse Of the Atlantic are all
important just now. They are the
favorite hunting grounds of the SUBJ
marines. The great cargo carriers
which link America and Europe must
run the gauntlet here of the deadly
marine hornets sent out on their mur-
derous errands from Kiel, Ostend, and
Zeebrugge.

is to be entrusted to the American
admiral, If the triple fleets of France,
Britain, and the United States are

is decidedly more than nominal and
perfunctory, as the pressimists would
have US believe. There is another
element involved in the appointment:
the American government Is on the
brink of sending great troop trans
ports across the Atlantic. Reports
are heard Of great U-boat flotillas
lying in wait for these ships. The
British and French admiralties may
have given Sims supreme command
for the vital matter of the protec-
ton Of these vessels and to attain
the fullest cooperation with the
American authorities. 1t Is self-evi-
dent that a thorough program of
patrol and convoy must be worked
out before a single one of these
transports is PERMITTED to pass into
the waters where the U-boats are
lurking.
In the North Sea the gray line of
British super-Dreadnoughts stands
like a great rampant which walls in
Germany from the markets of the
world. The submarines prey is
scanty there, for Dutch and Nor
wegian shipping has been frightened
from the seas. In the waters west of
England and Scotland the U-boat is
now making its hardest fight, and it
Is here that the American destroyers
are doing their bit'' toward ex-
terminating these underwater rats.

DRILLS FOR 1S DAYS
WITH BROKEN ANKLE

The attention Of the surgeons sta
toned at the post hospital of Fort
Myer Is at present concentrated upon
the case of one member of the Of
ficers' Reserve Training Camp who,
despite a broken ankle, stood up
under the strenuous drills for a period
of eighteen days. The man is John ".
Mulhall, representative of the Fifth
New Jersey Infantry, who was as
signed to the camp by the governor
of his State about three weeks ago.
According to Candidate Mulhall, the
hurt was sustained at Pompton, N. j.,
last May. The surgeon who examined
the hurt decided taht it was merely
sprain. and so recommended him
for appointment to Fort Myer.
The surgeons at Fort Meyer claim
that he is suffering from a fractured
fibular and marvel at the heroism
he displayed in working so hard with
out complaint. The ankle is now in
a plaster cast and will prevent his
walking for the next three weeks.

THE REPUBLIC OF THE WORLD

By JOHN JORDAN DOUGLASS.
Up through the mist Of centuries
filled with night:
Up through the travail of their
blood and tears
The nations struggle to the hills of
light,
Blood and heavy with the
weight Of years;
Clear visioned yet to see the one
faint trail
That leads from out the tyrant's
narrow vale
Up to the heights where manhood
And kings are but the things of
yesterday.
And it is cen as once the poet
sung:
One changeless purpose through the
ages runs
For men grow old, but still the
world is young
And plays with swords and mocks
the race with guns;
But 1t shall come to hate war even
When ali the fields of France are
With blood of nations mingled in
one stream
To float the stately ship of mans
great dream.
That men shall rule themselves by
right divine,
Nor bow nor heed the beck Of any
king;
That from the volga to the castled
Rhine
The shouts of freedom shall begin to
ring;
And men shall rise in tall and sover-
eign might
To place the crown upon the brow of
Right
Seated at last upon a loftier throne
Than any King the courts of earth
have known;
And light Of justice and immortal love
BaptiZe the earth from shining courts
above.
And they shall thrill the race with
loftier things
Than swords and spears and wild bar
barrie gfee
And set men free from thrall of
pampered kings,
And drive the Hun from every rolling
sea.
This then the earnest of the Titan's
thrOes;
To gid with hope siberia's scarlet
SHOWS;
70 grid with promise millions yet un-
To wake the dead with freedoms
golden horn.
Slowly but surely, with all weapons
that they know;
one goal, one aim, one slow and
measured tread,
Earning their ransom with the plow
and hoe,
Flung farther Ightward by the mil
lions dead
They come! They come! wild Tartars,
CZechs and Poles;
Onward and upward the crest OF ma
uons rolls
All nations; multi-colored men. a
thousand types;
Up, up to Freedom
Meath the Stars and Stripes.
