OVERCOMING OBJECTIONS TIC
KEEPING POULTRY.

Objection is frequently raised to the
keeping of poultry in towns and cities
because of the odor which may result
and because of the noise which is also
made by ROSTERS growing, particularly
in the early morning. There is no
necessity for the poultry flock to be-
come a nuisance to neighbors.
If the dropping boards are cleaned
daily and the houses and yards are
kept in reasonably clean condition
here will be no annoying odors. The
soil in the yard should be stirred >or
spaded up frequently if not in sod in
order to keep it in the best condition.
This will not only tend to keep down
any odors which might arise but also
allow the droppings to be absorbed in
to the soil NOR readily and therefore
keep the yard in better condition for
the hens.
The male bird need not be nui-
sance. Unless it is intended to hatch

other way-know youngsters in fancy

don't make the strongest girls and
boys.
CLOTHES make the man." It's also
true that clothing makes the baby,
too. So listen to the baby's plea and
uress him as he wants to be.
Few, simple garments, warm and
light, soft, dry and clean and never
tight, cut in one piece and without
bands, fashioned by mothers loving
hands, no bunchy wrinkles round the
waste, exactly suit baby's taste.
For our one object, you must know.
Is Just to kick and stretch and grow.
In the cold days of cold and storm,
of course we must be snug and warm;
but how would you, do you suppose
like heavy. bulky. bunchy clothes. that
overload you, truss and bind you, till
meath the mass it's hard to find you?
When August weather is at hand, a
diaper and knitted band are all the
rage in Babyland; for baby-and I'm
sure he's right-likes such costume,
cool and light, better than any
"Frenchy" gown bought at the smart
est shop in town.
"f'ine feathers make fine birds ?"
Well, maybe! But then bird is not

General Manager Piez added that at
the present time only ono-third Of the
workers are American born and that
TO the extent Of 65 per cent we are
forced to depend upon foreign-born la
bor" Why? We believe IL Is because
neither the American-born mechanic,
nor our manufacturers, nor the press
nor the Administration has yet deeply
fell and broadly realized that this ma
ton is at war, that its high repute Is
at ntake and that America cannot make

ton which 70 has promised itself until
It is organized for the job.
We have taken nearly a million and
a hals picked men from the farms and
the factories at time when the in
dustries Of the country were pitched at
full speed. No wonder there is q short
age OF labor for the ships II other in
dustries cannot be drawn upon and are
competing for labor against the ship
yards themselves. We do not know how
many men could be temporarily re-
leased from camp drill TO serve In the

be 100000 or 100000 at least. II this can

II American soldiers are TO go into the
