GET READY NOW FOR
RAISING FALL CHICKENS
Use Only Best Birds for Breeding.
Proper Selection Means Improve
mont of Flock.

Many poultry raisers report thai
they do not have as much success
with their fall Matched chickens as
with their spring matches.
THE reason for this" says A. F.
Rolf. Livestock Extension Service, l.
8. o., lis that the fall IL not nat
uraI breeding season. and because the
breeding stock will have just finished
moulting. The moulting process Is
quite q drain on the vitality Of
bird. Any hen that is weak constitu-
tionally will be in . poor physical
condition for several weeks after com.
pleting the moult. and any chickens
produced from such . hen will show
IN inherent weakness. The way to
overcome a large part Of the trouble
with fall Matched chicks Is to breed
only from physically strong. selected
birds.
THE vigorous and healthy bird has
large bone. . comparatively short.
stout head and beak; . bright, full
eye; a arm, red comb: a wide back:
. full, deep breast; q glossy. close
fitting coat Of feathers. and straight
legs. set well apart Discard the
birds that do not show all these points
Of vigor. and from the remainder Sc
lect those that have suitable color
and shape.
THE breeding pen should consist
Of the best male and the smallest
Of hens that will give the re-
quirsd number Of eggs for Matching.
Use only the best. and be that much
nearer to success.
Mass breeding means rapid deter
proper selection means i'm
provement."

The POTATO SCAB IS
NOT HARD TO CONTROL
Crop Rotation, Clean Fertilizer, and
Treatment Of Seed Arc Enec-
i've Measur0s.

Among the troubles with which the
grower Of Irish potatoes has to con-
tend II the disease commonly known
as potato seab. This disease affects
the tubers themselves. and not only
makes tho potatoes unsishtly but do
creases the yield.
The potato scab IL not 4 di@cult
disease to control. and an expenditure
OF few cents and . few hours time
previous - planting the seed viii
practically make certain that the crop
will be free Of this disease. In order
t. accomplish this, three things must
be considered.
~ Practice Crop Rotation. Pota-
toes should not be grown In q field
that produced crop of scabby p0ta-
toes the previous year. In some Sec
tions of the country the disease will
live over from one year to the next in
the soil To avoid possible infection
from the soil 1t is always best to 20.
tate the crops. After field has grown
potatoes for one year, it should be
planted in other crops for couple Of
years until any Of the scab infection
that may have been present in the
soil has had sufficient time to be
killed.
(2) Do Not Use Infected Fertilizer.
It sometimes happens that when
grower has scabby potatoes he feeds
them to his stock. Many OF the po-
tatoes will become mixed with the ma
nure and later find their way back
to the fields. II potatoes are planted
on land on which this manure has
besn spread, . diseased crop is very
hkely to be the result. Only fertilia-
or should be used that is known to
b FREQ Of any infection.
(3) Treat Al Potatoes Win For
nsaldehyds Before Planting. The
greatest source Of infection comes
from tho seed that u used for plant
ing. Tho 6iDease remains alive In the
scabby spots on the tnbefs. and oonse-

RED CROSS CIRCULAR
NO. 20

New Orleans, Aug. 20, 1917
To all Chapters in the New Orleans
District:
On August 18th a telegram was
sent out by Mr.. w. ]. Leppert, Dir
ector Gulf Division, American Red
Cross, to Chapters in this District,
quoting a telegram received from
Major Grayson Murphy urging
America to begin shipping at once
100000 each of certain knitted
wooden articles, and chapters were
asked to furnish definite number
of these requirements.
For the past four days our Office
has been fairly flooded with tele-
grams and letters from Chapters,
requesting shipments at once Of
yarn, needles, etc, to enable them
to carry out the above work. Un-
fortunately we have not yet been
supplied by the Washington Head
quarters with the necessary mater
ials.
We are sending this circular out
to all Of our Chapters as it is abso-
lutely impossible for US to reply
promptly to each individual tele-
gram and letter. We therefore trust
that all Chapters who have tele-
graphed or written to us will take
this letter as temporary reply.
We are advised by the Central
Office on July 18th that they had
contracted for sufficient yarn to
take care of all Red Cross needs,
delivery to commence on August
End, and that they would send q |
large supply of this yarn to US. But |
there has been some delay in the
delivery Of this yarn, and we have
not yet received any of it.
We hope to receive from New
York by the end Of the month a
shipment Of yarn. costing about
$!.25 per pound, hut do not know
positively that it will be here .i:en.
We trust, however, that early in
September that we will have the
supply of yarn promised by the
Central Office and that thereafter
there viii be no delay in filling your
requit .ments.
Meanwhile, we have no more of
the yarn quoted in our price list of
August 9th at $3.50 per package,
nor are we able to find any more in
this city at that price. /
W. have bought all of the good |
grace !-ply yarn we could find here
at $500 per pound (of Is ounces),
but we have only a very small
amount, not nearly enough to be-
gin to supply the demand.
In order to save however, we are
shipping to each of the Chapters,
who have so far ordered yarn from
us, a five pound package Of this A.
ply yarn costing $500 per pound.
If the Chapters who have ordered J,
yarn do not wish to keep what we
are shipping, they are requested to
return it to us at once, so that /
other Chapters may have an oppor-
tunity to use it.
We are also unable to fill the ,
very large articles for knitting
needles, which we are receiving. /,
You will see from the new Red
Cross circular No. 400, that certain
special needles are recommended.
The Central Office has not yet sup
piled US with these new needles but
have promised to do so at the earli-
est possible date. Meanwhile, our adj
vice to Chapters is to use any need
les they can get, as it will manifest
ly be better for them to knit socks {
and sweaters with any needles avail
able rather than not to knit at all, -,
due to the urgent need for the fin
ished articles. IL
Yours very truly,

Deaths from kidney disease have
increased y per cent in 20 years.
People overdo nowadays in so many
ways that the constant filtering Of
poisoned blood weakens the kidneys.
Beware Of fatal Bright's disease.
When backache or urinary ills sug-
gest weak kidneys, use Doan's Kid
ney Pills, live carefully, take things
easy and avoid heavy eating. Doan's
Kidney Pills command confidence, for
no other kidney remedy is so widely
used or so generally successful. Home
endorsement is the best proof of mer-
it. Read this Barton woman's story:
Mrs. Clement Dusharine, Cemetery
Hill, Barton, says: "My kidneys were
out of order and / had trouble with
backache. My back bothered me
considerably and as / had heard Of
Doan's Kidney Pills recommended
highly, I tried them. This medicine
cured my back and kidneys and I
have had no occasion to use a kidney
medicine since"
