FOOD ADMINISTRATOR G. A.
PRESCOTT SAYS TODAY

Under the selective draft each SOL
dier is assigned to that service for
which he is best adapted by previous
training and experience. In accord
ance with this principle, the farm
women of the nation are designated
to render full service through poultry
production and conservation.
The farm women of Michigan will
prove their loyalty by a maximum
production of eggs and poultry.
The maximum output must be Sc
cured from each flock. To accom-
plish this the hens should be given s.
scratch feed of cracked corn, barley
and oats, morning and evening. (One
pint to ten hens.) They should have
access to hopper of mill-feeds equal
parts of bran, shorts, cornmeal and
ground oats. This mash supplies the
needed elements for maximum egg
production. Supply skim-milk, but
termilk or beef scraps. Keep water,
grit, oyster shells and charcoal before
the flock at all times.
Every egg produced must be used
for food or Matching. Small, thin
shelled, dirty or questionable eggs
should not be marketed. Eggs may
be preserved in water-glass during
the period when eggs are cheapest,
and may be used in autumn and win
ter when prices are high. A con-
servation program requires two eggs
daily per person to save "The Red
meats" Hatching-eggs, under hens
or in incubators, should be tested for
fertility. Infertile eggs should be
hard-boiled and used as food for
young chicks OF pigs. Statistics show
a loss of one egg for each chick rear
ed.
Broody hens should be interned,
but well fed that they may soon re-
sumo laying. Keep nests clean. Col
lect often and keep in cool, dry place.
Market often, full size 1.-TWO ounce)
fresh, clean, uniform eggs in such con-
tainers as will not break the eggs.
Claim premium for such eggs.
During April, May and June hatch
the most chickens possible. Use incu-
bators and broody hens. Set as many
as possible at one time that chicks
may be of the same age and develop
ment. Have brooders or brood coops
ready to prevent loss. Save every
chick. Feed for rapid growth and de-
velopment.
Every available nurse in Michigan
is needed by the government to care
for the sick and wounded soldiers at
the front and our boys in the training
camps in this country.
Through the Red Cross the govern
ment has issued an appeal to enroll
thousands of nurses for military and
naval service at once.
Persons of means may help by dis
posing of the services of nurses who
are serving as companions and gov
ernesses, and eliminating the calling
of nurse in minor illness.
Chronic invalids in many cases can
dismiss their nurses. Housewives and
older women, who have had experience
in the care Of the sick, can relieve
these nurses by offering their services
to physicians and nurses registeries,
who have many calls for experienced
nurses.
Free that nurse! Tell her to enroll
with the Red Cross and be ready when
called.

PEANUT POLITICS GONE MAD
To the.Democratic Voters of the
 Seventh Congressional District:


 Seventh Congressional District:
 At the eleventh hour my op- ponent has issued a sixteen page speech" in which he attacks not only me but the Congress, the Wilson Administration and the Government itself. Nothing contained therein is original with him but is rehash and repeti- tion of the libelous and unAmer- jean stuff put out by Senator La Toilette and many pro-German propagandists in an effort to destroy the confidence of the people in the Wilson Admins tration.
 It would require several entire editions Of this paper to answer and refute all of the false state ments and vile insinuations in his speech. Fl will not here at tempt to answer all of them, but cannot let pass without challeng ing some few utterances against me, your Party, our President, and our Government. 1 deny when President Wilson took over the railroads of the country by an act of Congress, "..every word of which the President approved, that it constituted the greatest conspiracy against thesAmerican people that has been known since the day free government was instituted" as he charges In his speech. o l deny and denounce as! wholly false every word and syllable of his charge that the Revenue Law or the Se- lee.iTe Service Law, or any of the great measures in the inter- est 0t the masses passed by your ! Congress, and signed by your President. discriminate against the poor in favor of the rich. l deny that Congress has eX- empted"its sstmembers from any tax laidsupon any other citizen.
 He tells you that voted against increasing the pay of our soldiers. The truth is 1 voted to increase their pay one hundred per cent. l deny that Congress and our President have increased our liabilities one cent for the benefit of any railroad. and every other such slanderous attack as is contained in his circular.
 No German or Socialistic prop aganda l have yet seen IS one- half as untruthful as this mans diatribe against his party, and one of the greatest men of all time, your President. No man knowing my record will truth fully assert that l have been at any time untrue to the people or failed at any time to support the President either before or after the War began.
 If President Wilson and Con greSs nave favored the rich as against the poor. or have been Tn any way corrupt, as this can dldate would have you believe, then the President and each of Us should be impeaehed and i'm prisoued and forever driven from the association of decent people.
 No man with spark of patri- otism in his bosom or love of truth in his soul would pat out such poisonous and unpatriotic prapaganaa for all the offices within the gift of the people.
 Yours for Loyal Service,
 
 W. s. Goodwin.
