THE EARLY CHICK
LAYS THE EGG

Early Matching is the secret of win
ter egg production, say specialists in
the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture. The pullet that is hatched early
natures early and is ready to lay
eggs in the fall when the supply is
scarcest and prices highest. Chickens
that are expected to be revenue pro-
ducers for their owners later in the
year should be out of their shells by
April 80 at the latest. If they are
properly cared for thereafter they
will begin to lay eggs at the very time
that eggs are most wanted.
To great extent the poultrymen of
the country have overlooked this
simple fact. For one thing. birds
Matched later in the spring or sum-
mer are not inclined to become broody
until late the following season and
thus an improbable circle is formed
Each year pullets mature too late to
produce in the fall and winter, and
they sit too late for their offspring to
do any better. The poultryman who
wishes to get really good returns from
his flock must break this circle.
The growing use of incubators has
made this comparatively easier. There
is no reason why incubators should
not be filled in March and early April
and the Matching over before May L,
If no incubator is available it may be
possible to secure broody hens in the
neighborhood. That they will repay
the trouble and expense necessary to
obtain them, is indicated by results at

"Pacifsts" among the coming citizens
of our land. Let us do our utmost to
teach loyalty and deep love for our
land and flag. We do not feel that it

not throw aside party prejudice and

WHY7


Judge Allen M. Barber of the Pro-
bate Court has a peculiarly pathetic
case on his hands which owing to con-
ditions which exist in our state at the
present time is liable to remain on his
hands for some time to come. The
case is that of an epileptic girl who
becomes at times violently insane and
to such an extent that the lives of
members of the family are endanger-
ed. The family have appealed to the
Probate Court for relief but up to
the present time the court has been
unable to secure admission for this
unfortunate in any of the State insti-
tutions. This patient may not be car
ed for in either the County Jail, the
Infrmary or Hospital; it is almost
impossible for the family to keep the
patient in the home especially during
her violent periods of insanity and
the futility of efforts to place the pa
tient in a state institution is illustrat-
ed by the following extract from let
county from the Ohio Board of admin
istration:
"All of the institutions under
charge of this Board are at the pres
ent so over-crowded that additional
admissions are almost out Of the ques.
ton. We would suggest that you
make application to the Superintend.
ent Of the Toledo State Hospital. II
he is unable to receive this patient
we do not see how any relief can be
afforded you.
We would call your attention tC
the fact that the legislature has moi
and does not now, make sufficient ap.
preparations to keep pace with tbs
growing institutional demands"
The letter from which the foregoing
extract is taken was signed by A. F
Shepherd, M. d.
As citizens and taxpayers in tn,
