Told to Write What Was in Them.

Children" said the teacher, while
ilstructing the class in composition,
you should not attempt any flights
of fancy but simply be yourselves and
write what is in you. Do not initiate
any other persons writings or draw
inspiration from any outside sour
ces." AS a result Of this advice
Johnnie Wise turned in the follow
ing composition: 1--WE should not at
tempt any flites of fancy but rite

IA FEW CHICKENS
WILL PAY WELL
Back Yards and Farms Can
Double the Nations Meat
Supply at Small Cost

Poultry must be produced next year
In places where It has not been pro-
duced before, and everywhere that
poultry has been produced that pro-
duction must be increased. Il IL nee
essary that people In the country and
in the towns answer alike to this. call.
Farms and backyards must both do
their bit, for the doubling Of our
poultry production next year is an in
dispensible item in the Nations food
production program "a program
which must be carried out II we are
to win the war.
The meat supplies available for
European use are short. Meat must
be supplied If the war is won-by the
forces who fight for freedom. The
war will be won il we fail in food
production-but not won by US. We
must understand what will happen II
we do not provide the enormous guam
titles Of foodstuffs that the Allies
can not produce for themselves.
Are we going to feed our army on
chickens and eggs? OF course not.
But by greatly increasing our produc-
ton of chickens and eggs, and by eat
ing those chickens and eggs ourselves
we will, naturally, eat that much less
beef and pork. In turn, that beef and
pork can be sent to Europe.
The United States Department of
Agriculture calls upon the country to
double poultry production next year.
That can be done If the farms will
keep an average of 100 hens instead
of an average of 40 hens, as at pres
ent, and if every family in town will
keep enough hens in the backyard to
produce all the eggs used by that
family-or two hens to each person.
