What Empey Says Not to Write Gun

"When you people at home write
to your soldiers in the trenches, for

tell them that some one is ailing and
the weather is bad. Nothing disgusts
a man more than TO read when receiv-
ing letters from home, when he's set

don't tell him what good dinner you
had on Sunday, and how John Doe
took his best girl to the movies yes
terday. Like as not he'll tear open
your letter with a hand that he cut
trying to open a bully beef tin! And
as for John Doe, the soldier is likely
to ask why he isn't over there, too,
instead of taking girls to movies back
in America! And don't have the
sewing circle write him letters about
obeying the Golden Rule and being
good to the German prisoners. It'll
be a long time before he so much as
sees a German, you know! The thing
to do when you write to your boys in
the trenches is to slap them on the
back! As for presents-don't send
them a lot of useless junk. If you
are in doubt, send money, and let
them buy what they want themselves.
"The Y. M. c. A. doesn't make any
distinction in any way-Protestant,
Catholic, Jew, atheist, every one is
welcome. It's up to you people at

Tho end OF 1916 found the situation

with tho scales leaning slightly In

The year 1917 has presented still

powerless to answer back.
This is the pitiful state to which

The flrst phase was q concentrated at
tack on France and Belgium during a
certain allotted period of time. in
which the Germans estimated it would
be impossible for Russia to disturb
them In tho east.
Tho attack on France was checked,
first on the Marne, later on tho User
and at Ypres. although France and
Belgium suffered severely in the pro-
cess.
Germany, them according to her
plan. took tho defensive on the western
front and turned her offensive effort
eastward In an effort to knock out
Russia. Here again she failed. al
though her attack enormously weak
ened Russia's offensive power.
I'm the autumn Of 1916 Germany

The fact that table scraps are n mix
ture of odds and ends gives them their
chief virtue. which is balanced ra-
ton. Properly fed, and by that we
mean fed in sweet wholesome con-
dition, there is no better food in the
world for poultry. Fowls fed on ia
BILE scraps invariably do better than
those given n single grain ration. The
reason for this is perfectly plain; the
fowls system, like the human taste.
requires variety. No one article of
food will maintain health and vigor.
For small backyard flock the table
scraps from the average household
should supply half the food required.
With the addition Of a neighbours ia

Pointed Paragraphs for the Beginner.
Experience has demonstrated that
males in the pens reduce the total egg
yield for the year. Furthermore, they
are likely to impair the quality of the
eggs. for infertile eggs keep better
than fertile ones. Then, too, there is
the cost of maintaining surplus males.
At a time like this only the produc-
ers should be kept. Nonproducers
should be consigned to the block
as meat. AS soon as the breeding sea-

Remember that a hens temperature
is log IL. and mans. 93-5. Therefore

housed alike.
Too much sunshine is just as bad as
not enough. If the yards are without
natural shade, such as trees. or shrubs
artificial shade must be provided
Boards. an old awning, canvas or bur-
