WHAT SERVICE MEANS

Write that word high in all thinking
and planning and work. 1t Is the slo-
gan every true American citizen must
square up to. 1t is not true merely
because he said 1t but President Will
son said recently what is tremen-
dously true:
"The course Of this nation is marked
out clearly for the next decade at least.
What we shall do after that depends
upon what we will to do, but for the
next ten years America must be in
position to help other nations"
The first step in reaching that posi-
ton Of service is to do the plain duty
we owe to each other-to pay our
bills 80 all other men can pay theirs,
to square up all our accounts with
cash or discount paper, and declare a
new and popular emancipation Of ev-
erybody from every floating obligation
and unsecured debt.
A statewide movement for Pay-Up
Week simply means that every citizen
will do his duty. his first duty to his

HATCHfNG is "GREAT STRAIN"
Lice Working UnmoIested While Hes
Is Sitting Is Most Responsible
for Poor Condition.

The average poultry man will say thai
Matching is great strain" on hen,
and the condition of some of the birds
on finishing their matches seems to bear
out this statement. But the harm done
by the lice working unmolested while
her motherly instinct keeps the hen
busy is more responsible for her run
down condition than the energy re
quired in the actual work of incubating
the eggs.
The busting with lice powder should
be done not only at the beginning Of
the hatch, but about once week
throughout the sitting period.

laying is largely an individual char
acteristic. Many prefer the Bronze
and generally this breed by far out
numbers the others on the holiday
market.
The Bronze turkeys are close de-
scendants of the American wild tur-
key, which is still found in some parts
of our country. The young of the
domesticated birds soon show a ten
dency to wander in search of food
They can fly to an astonishing height
when it becomes necessary.
The young turkeys do not bear con-
finement well. For anything like sat
isfactory results they should range in
the fields and pastures. They are very
useful in keeping down insects that
destroy crops, and many farmers
wives have sold enough turkeys dur
ing the season preceding the holidays
to provide comforts and conveniences
for the home.

BRONZE TURKEY BEST KNOWN
Reaches Enormous Size-Do Not
Bear Confinement Well.

The largest and perhaps the best
known of the domesticated turkey II
the Bronze sometimes called the Nam
moth Bronze. The male bird OF this
breed reaches an enormous size some
times. The standard weight for the
tom Is SO pounds and for the hen 70
pounds.
Generally the heavier weights are
found among the breeding birds, and
are not for sale. AS a matter Of ex-
perience breeders find that the great
est demand for the holiday trade is for
the smaller birds suitable for a din
ner for an ordinary family.
The plumage of the Bronze is very
attractive. The feathers are bronze or
dull black with bands of white across
The bronze tint gives pleasing color
effects.
One common objection has been that
the Bronze hen is not very good
layer. But it is generally found that

In the majority of homes today the combintion of sim- pie laxative herbs with pepsin known as Dr. iCaldwelrs Syrup Pepsin is recognized as the standard laxative.
