cepting substitutes. Coyote scalps,
gopher scalps, crow eggs and crow
heads are his favorites \ coyotes
scalp is accepted as 81, Il gopher at ,
cents and crow heads cent apiece
The county bounty on these pelts
and the long distance from the county
seat explain the unusual money" ac-
cepted. When Younggreen has good
supply on hand he mails or brings them
to the office OF the county clerk and is
paid the legal bounty. the same value as

where coconuts Grow.

Coconuts are one of the largest
rnoney-making crops of the Philippine
islands. While they will grow in al
most any province. there are localities
that are especially known for their
great nut production. There was until
recently no system for planting these
trees. as plantations were usually sold
after the trees were two or three years
old. The object was to get as many
trees on a given area as was possible
D grow. These plantations were then
sold for so much a tree. When it was
seen that the trees would not bear the
quality Of fruit they should, more
pains were taken In the planting and
some definite planting scheme adhered
TO. This has greatly increased the size
Of the nut and the quality of the meat.

DRUG STORES USE MANY EGGS
Furnish Medium Through Which Poul-
tryman Can Dispose of Produce
and Obtain Valuable AdVer-
Using.

1.-THE farmer is missing a market for
his eggs by overlooking the drug
store" says the Farm and Fireside.
'"The drug store represents a splen-
did chance to work up a direct to the
consumer trade. One New England
poultryman started supplying the lead
ing drug store in a city of 10000. His
farm, carrying several hundred layers,
was in an adjoining town on car
line. He produced infertile eggs.
Through the publicity the drug store
gave him, opportunities by the score
came to him to sell direct. Now a
large portion of his production the
year round is sold at retail prices. Nu-
merous customers come to his farm TO
buy eggs for invalids.
In the spring he does a large bust
ness in eggs by the case for water
CHASING, obtaining for his infertile
eggs premium of to cents dozen.
Institutions are good customers. He
caters to this trade, believing there is
going to be a tremendous increase in
The use Of waterglass.
A drug store is one of the best Gus
toners poultry keeper can have de-
ciared this man. Besides yielding an
additional profit, this trade makes a
reputation for you quicker than a large
amount of self-inspired paid advertis-
ing"
