the Cow Barn

Almost any kind of a COW can
kick over lanter, but it takes a
highly trained animal to entin-
guish an electric light attached to
the ceiling Of COW barn.
Take milking. How much
quicker and easier would you milk
those Jerseys Of yours if your
barn was brilliant with electric
light
On dairy farms Delco-Light is
worth its cost in the COW barn
alone, but it lights the house and
other buildings and will run your
separator, too.
Let us give you a Delco-Ligkt
demonstration at your home.

One of the neatest papers to reach
this office in many days is now before
us. 1t is called "The Cadence,D and
is issued by Uncle Sans boys who
until recently were stationed in the
University Training detachment at
Boulder. Only one issue was printed,
but it is full of pep and patriotism
and rings clear and true in every line.
Edward Fl. Mcbride is the editor, Ray
Dickson business manager, and G. G.
Owen assistant manager. The paper
sold like hot cakes at Boulder and the
regiment cleaned up on the venture a
nice bunch of money which was di-
vided among the boys and used as a
mess fund while travelling this week
to the various camps to which they
were assigned.

HEN LAYS TWO EGGS IN A DAY

VIM. Diedrich is the possessor of
the most wonderful hen in existence,
rivaled only by the hen which laid
the golden eggs, as told in the fairy
tales.
Not long ago "Bill' brought to the
Journal office an enormous egg,
produced by one of his White Wynn
dottes, which attracted a great deal
of attention while it was on display
in the window. Last week, he tells
US, the hen that laid that big egg laid
another fully as large, but she laid
it on the roost and the egg fell of
and broke, disclosing within contents
of an unusual nature Inside of the
she'll was the usual yolk and white
and another egg of ordinary size will
she'll intact-two eggs in one-tw'
eggs in one day.
We can only presume that thu
hen had overheard the talk about in
creased production and undertook t
double hers.
If anyone has more wonderfr
hen than this one let them come fol
ward with the story.

Remember that the compulsory

The District Attorney has informed

forced in this Parish.
Every child between the ages OF
Z and IA must enter school not later
than the third week or parents be
subject to fine.
Children who are 6 years old OF

they do not begin during the frs

American headquarters In France
Nov. 20.--American prisoners re-
leased by the Germans are max ing
their way singly and in pairs across
the line at various points. The Ger

try
70 meet the emergency the AmGri-
can army has established stations at
various points along the American
sector Of occupation where prisoners
can be received and cared for as they
arrive. Eventually they will be con-
ccntrated at four main camps at
Chaudency, Revigny. Chcllcs and Sa-
leux.
The returned men give varying ac-
counts Of their treatment by tho
Germans. Some say they were
treated very harshly and brutnlly,
while others say their captors were
stern, but not unduly harsh. Seem
inGly tho treatment depended LARGELY
upon the administration of the pri son
in which the Americans were con-
fined. The physical condition OF the
men also varies.

fishing relief stations at the four
