INCHES FROM PIER END
Presence Of Mind Saves Life of Driver
When Steering Gear Broke

St Petersburg. April 3.-Harvey
Hackney of Manhattan Court, had a
narrow escape from death in his au-
tomobile yesterday when his steering
gear broke just as he was making the
turn at the end of the Recreation
pier But for his prompt presence Of
mind in applying the emergency
brake, both car and occupant would
have plunged over the end of the
pier. and being seated in the car as
he was. the plunge would have prob
ably meant his death. The car was
stopped about six inches from the
edge of the pier.
Mr.. Hackney is employed by the
Manhattan Market and was riding in
one of the cars that took part in the
parade Wednesday afternoon. The
car had been hurriedly repaired for
the parade and nut in the connect.
ing rod OF the steering wheel had not
been securely placed. Just as the
car rounded the turn at the end of
the pier the nut came off rendering
the car without control When Mr.
Hackney realized he wac going OF

FETERITA FOR POULTRY.

Experiments are showing that there
Is a great future for feiterita as a poul-
try feed to take the place of wheat
This grain in composition is quite SIM
liar to wheat or barley. except it Is
richer in fat but it is lower in fat con
tent, however, than Indian corn. The
grains being small size, it is we'll
adapted for scratch feed AMI for young
chicks without cracking. Best of all
it is a sure cropper in practically
every part of this country, as it wi
mature in 80 TO 80 days on soil of fai-.
fertility than will corn.
Several other good points of @feteri-
ia are it's ability to withstand drought
and the small quantity of seed re-
uuired-4 or 5 pounds of good seed
will plant an acre drilled in row 8 IL
feet apart and the kernels 6 inches
apart in the row. 1t is a warm-weath-
er crop and should be planted a week
or ten days later than corn. and in To-
~calities where frost holds OFF until Oc-
tober 1st f~eterita can be planted as late
June 10Th to July 1sL and still ma
ture the grain. I
The fodder is quite similar to corn
slower in feeding value, as feterita be-
longs to the sorghum family. ANY OF
the leading seedsmen will send you a
pound to try by mail for about 2O
cents-Farm and FireSide.

BAD-EGG

More than one-sixth, II per cent, OF
the annual egg output of Missouri is
lost through carelessness, according +
figures supplied by H. L. Kempster
professor of poultry husbandry in the
University of Missouri College of Ag-
ricuIture. Missouri hens produce
1882, OOO. 900 eggs a year. Of this
number II per cent, Or 226, 100000 eggs
are lost through spoilage and breakagc
These 226,440, 900 eggs would weigh
rs, 1906, 900 pounds. They represent
141,52 2 900 pounds of chicken feed and
the output of 2,264,4 400 hens. If all the
eggs which are now wasted in Missouri
were conserved there would be one ex-
ira egg for every man, woman and
child in the state for every Sunday and
holiday in the year. The loss from
bad eggs comes about because a singh
broken or spoiled eggs is not consider
a great loss. In fact it is so small
that it is hardly noticed on the average
farm, but it is the total of these brok-
and bad eggs which causes an an
nual loss of $5,661, 900 when eggs are
at 80 cents a dozen. These bad
and broken eggs not only represent q
loss of human food but they represent
a loss of grain and other feeds which
the country can i'll afford, especially at
this time of national food shortage. 1t
is probable that similar losses occur
each year in other states.

THE POULTRY CLUB
MEMBERS DO GOOD WORK.

In calling attention to the work of the
Poultry Club members of the Agricul-
turaI Extension Service in aiding in
the food production of the State for
1917, Mr.. A. G. Oliver shows that the
465 members reporting last year set
1854 eggs, which Matched out 13, $50
chicks, and that 12,413 of the chicks
we're raised to maturity. These 465
members comprise about one-half Of
the membership enrolled, but the re-
naming members, while doing the
work as outlined. could not be induced
to make reports, Had these reports
been received it is probable that the
