ment by Secretary Baker Thursday

In effect this places on war time

ed since the state of war was de-
clared. It makes available a total Of
517,86s places in the enlisted grades
of the two services to men who wish
to serve for the war only.
Mr.. Baker emphasized the fact that
this action was contemplated when
the administration bill was framed
and was in no way to be construed AS
compromise plan, reached. as re-
suit of opposition to the draft feature
of the bill.

Poultry in the Back Yard
Will Help Pay Grocery Bills

spare lumber available and the pros
pective poultryman happens to be a
good carpenter. the cost OF the chick
en- house will not be met by the value
OF the products over the cost of feed
for the flock for year or two. The
house should last, however, for a
number of years. especially if paint
ed and well cared for. Substantial
profits from the investment should
be made thereafter.
In many cases also. where the sur
roundings are. such that tie chickens
can not be allowed to range at will.
the cost of fencing must be consjd-
cred. This. obviously. will vary great
Iy with the size OF the area TO be
enclosed and the kind of fencing
selected. Ordinary chicken wire is
not expensive.
Cost Of Keeping Chickens.
The actual economy secured by
keeping of a small flock of chick
ems depends primarily upon their egg
production. and this. in turn. is large
ly matter of care. Under favor
able conditions. however. II is esti-
mated that $50 eggs the first year
and 120 the second is a fair return
from the ordinary hen On the other
hand, at least from % to so cents
a year must be expended for grain
pending upon the quantity of table
scraps and green and insect food
available. Where all the feed must
be purchased. from 81 to S1.25 is al
lowed. EvSu in the most thrifty
household, however. there Is always
a large quantity Of table scraps. veg
etable parings, and other left overs"
for the hens. SO that a considerable
portion OF their feed consists OF what
otherwise would be carried on the
place by the garbage man.
Although of less importance than
the eggs. the supply OF poultry for
the table furnished by the home
flock Is an item that can not be over
looked. As has been pointed out. in
flock of twenty-five which the
owner is perpetuating. there will be
approximately. twelve or thirteen
cockerels, almost all of which can be
used best for food. Half OF the hens
must go each year also. 20 that al
lowing for losses and for birds ress-v-
ed for. breeding. there still will be
enough appreciably to affect the
butchers bill.
