POULTRY BULLETIN NO. 1.

The question Of whether or not it
pays to keep poultry, especially during
the present high cost of feeds, has
often been asked the writer. Being
satisfied from our own experience that
it does, but wishing substantial corrob-
grafton before making definite an
swer we either wrote or interviewed
several poultry keepers whom we
knew kept a record of their flocks,
among them being Mrs. A. A. Ditle-
meir Of Garrison, Montana; Mrs. A. b.
Anderson and Mr.. r. A. Carey of Mis-
soula. The results obtained by these
people follow:
Mrs. Ditlemeir has 4S single comb
White Leghorn pullets. In November
and December she received total of
1O4k dozen eggs from them which she
sold in Butte at from IS to Is cents
per dozen, receiving therefrom the sum
of 1925. Feed at zoe per bird per
to be deducted. leaving net, $78.15 or
an average of $1.63 profit per bird in
two months.
Mr.. Carey has O small place of about
two acres, located on the outskirts OF
Missoula at the mouth of the Hell Gate
canyon. He kept 40s pullets and 40
hens during the winter, these being
Leghorns also. Mr.. Carey keeps a very
close account of the eggs received feed
purchased, etc. This report is as fol-
lows.

The other day-a very cold. cherr-

are all we are able to show for it:
common cause of tinnitus is har-

acteristic of this condition is sudden
onset, and the reverberation of the
subjects own voice as in talking in a
barrel. 1t is exceedingly dangerous
to attempt to dig the hardened plug
of wax out. 1t should be syringed
out with warm soda solution.
Injury to the ear drum, and injury
or disease of the auditory nerve, are
occasional causes of head noises

ringing or head noises.
The taking of quinine is notorious
cause of ringing in the ears and Of

which more commonly cause 1t are
salicylic acid or any of it's deriva-
tives (salicylatc of soda, aspirin, etc.,,
and acetanilide.

To resume-All it takes to make a
success with poultry, either in large
or small numbers, is common sense,
well raised. bred to lay stock. sensible
housing, good care, intelligent feeding
and sanitary surroundings.
There is no branch of diversified
farming especially on the smaller
places that will give quicker or larger
returns than poultry culture when in :

1t requires constant. personal atten-

turns are sure and quick. Montana i'm
ported over 100000 worth OF poultry
products last year. Prices, especially
for eggs. are always good and the
year-round demand for poultry and
eggs afford a constant source of in

FATHER DAMIEN'S
WORK CARRIED ON
Government Provides fol
Lepers' Institution.

At Tremeloo, Belgium, IS years ago,
Joseph DeVeuster, better known as
Father Damien, was born. He was edu-
Gated for a business career, but when
ne was Is years old he entered holy
orders, and Is years later, in October,
1863, went to Honolulu as mission
airy In the stead of his brother. In
1864 he was ordained a priest, and
during the nine years that followed
he was frequently struck in his paro-
chial work with the pitiful condition of
the Hawaiian lepers. In 1878, he VOL
, unteered to take up his residence on
the island of Molokai, to which at that
time all lepers We're deported, and there
he remained until his death on April
Is, 1889. He gave evidence in 1885 of
having contracted leprosy from the
unfortunates committed to his care
but he continued his labors
Leprosy is ntagious, infectious
disease, which is believed to be di-
rectly communicable from one person
to another person. 1t is believed to be
caused by microscopic vegetable par
asite shaped somewhat like small
curved stick. This bacillus was dis
covered by Hansen in 1874. In man the
disease appears in several different
forms, attacking almost any organ in
the body, destroying any or all of the
sense, and finally producing death
There is a disease among rats which
closely Stimulates human leprosy. and
the bacillus which causes it resembles
that found in human leprosy.
1t is not definitely known just how
the leprosy bacillus enters the body. 1t
may be through wounds of the skin or
| the lining membrane of the nose and
throat, and possibly it may be taken
| into the body with food. 1t is pretty
definitely proven that no particular
article of diet. such as fish, causes the
disease. 1t has been thought that some
insect may act as the agent which
transfers the germs from sick people
to well people. This is not proven.
| Whatever the exact mechanism in
the transference of the leprosy bacillus,
practical evidence shows that the dis
ease is spread mainly by direct con-
tact and is most prevalent where peo-
pie are dirty and overcrowded. There
is no evidence that leprosy is heredi-
tary.
Practical experience has shown that
segregation is the only practicable
means Of controlling the disease. A
bill appropriating $25O,OOO for the pur-
pose Of establishing national home
for lepers passed the house of repre-
sentatives on May 4, 1916, and was
passed by the senate on January 25,
1917. This provides national insti-
tuition for the care and treatment Of
the unfortunates afflicted with this
gruesome disease and solves the prob
lem of preventing it's spread in the
United States.

HEARSEs DlSTRUsTED.

London.-The hearse, although by
no means a modern invention, has not
yet penetrated into some Of the re-
mote country districts Of England.
The coffin of the late Duke of Nor
folk, when it arrived from London at
his country estate at Arundel, was not
put in a hearse, for none was availa-
bic there, but according to the custom,
was placed in an ordinary farm wagon
and drawn by four horses to the castle.
In many parts of agricultural Eng
land, the use of hearse is regarded
with distrust. the farmers theory be-
ing that "the Lords harvest when
gathered should be carried in the same
way as a mans harvest"

Second-Good stock, not necessarily

egg production; and as surely as you
can't get blood from a turnip,' it
doesn't pay to keep the other kind.
Experiments have proven that the av-
erage production of the ordinary farm
hen is 20 eggs per year. while the av-
erage pure blood. bred to lay, hens Is
over double that of the farm hen or

Yet such would be t fact.
The issue between the United
States and Germany is that of
the right of Americans to have
the free use of the high seas,
and it is that right that this
country proposes to defend.
America is deeply interested in
human rights, and is their fore
most champion among nations,
and if it should be compelled by
force Of arms to establish the
right of its own citizens to sail
the seas unmolested, it will per-
form a great service to the cause
of humanity, the world over, just
as the thrashing of a bully is al
ways a good thing for the entire
community. But If war comes
between this country and Ger
many 1t will be for the purpose
of restoring the freedom of the
seas for Americans, and for re-
dressing any wrong to American
citizens. In such an eventually
this country will be no more in
volved in the war between the
European powers than it now is,
altho, Of course, any victory that
it might achieve over the Ger
man sea power would be of that
much benefit to Germany's foes,
a result for which Germany
clone would be responsible.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
TRAINING IN
THE u. S.

The idea of universal military
training for the United States is
growing in favor, because it is
beginning to become apparent
that this is the only practical
way to adequately prepare for
American defense. Many of the
objections that seemed to legiti-
mately attach to the idea are
seen to be only imaginary as dis
cussion of the subject progress
SEES. The main objection was
that it would make the United
States a military nation, but
there is no reason to believe that
this would be true. 1t is more
reasonable to believe that while
promoting patriotism and pre-
paredness, it would make us less
likely to rush into any war that
might honorably be avoided.
The jingoes, those who shout for
war, are generally those who do
none of the fighting. If war on
the part of the United States
meant that the burden of carry
ing on that conflict would be
universally distributed and not
confined to those who were pa
triotic enough to volunteer to
fight, there would be less criti-
cism of a president who was
trying to preserve honorable
peace and less clamor for Inter
vention' or for war on any 9TH
er pretense. Indeed, it is quite
likely that universal military
training would be a potent fac
tor in keeping this nation at
peace, both because of its effect
on the American mind and of
the wholesome respect it would
breed in the thoughts of other
nations.

policy" declared Mr.. Morgan,

Western country The public
land that remains to be settled
is largely arid, and in the opini-
on of Congressman Morgan the
United States can well afford to
be generous in its disposition.
