farm TRACTORS HELP
INCREASE PRODUCTION
Machines Have Been Improved In
Many Respects.

Great things are expected Of the
farm tractor in the present food emer-
gency, and it is safe to say that we
shall be absolutely dependent on the
gas tractor for very large part Of the
immediate peak load.
1.-THE tractor has passed through a
marked refining process recently, In
anticipation, it would seem. of the In.
creased demands shortly to be made
upon it, and it will answer satisfactor-
lily all reasonable demands" says T..

ing to be hitched to the plow or har-
row or drill or binder. 1t has not al
ways been the case that gas engines
and gas tractors were so reliable. But
today Just as we ride in our trusty
automobile and never give an anxious
thought to reaching our destination,
with the same confidence we can sit
in the comfortable seat of our equally
reliable friend. the tractor. and look
ahead with assurance to the steady
execution Of the many jobs on the
farm which it is so admirably fitted to
perform.
mo longer does the tractor pack
the ground with its heavy weight, nor
does it require such a large area in
which to turn as heretofore. No more
does it suck into its vitals dust-laden
air to grind and wear and cause USE
less waste. 1t cleverly filters all the
air it breathes in one of several IN
genious ways. More and more fire.
Quently do we find tie tractor with all
gears, pinions. ETC., in fact, all moving
parts except the drive and steering
wheels, effectively protected from dust
and provided with abundant and posi-.
tive fabrication. 1t is becoming more
business-like and smooth and trim in
appearance, and more confidence-win
ming. The tractor is the new found
hired man who doesn't complain OF
long hours. The tractor il the new
champion of the cause Of more food.

PROFITABLE Hens
SHOULD Be RETAINED
Indications Point To Good Poultry
Prices Next Fall and Winter.

A large number of Louisiana far.
Matching early enough to procure the
desired number of chicks within the
regular Matching period, according to
John L. Prehn, Extension Poultry
Husbandman, u. S. Department Of As-
riculture. cooperating with L. S. U.
1t is therefore advisable, says Mr..
Prehn, to make up for this shortage
by retaining all profitable hens under
two years old. 1t is essential to Gull
out the drones or slackers among the
hens, but hold and care for the Likely
layers. Records show that the plans
for the 1918 Matching season would
use about 10 per cent less eggs for
that purpose than in 1917. Added 10
this we have the fact that most of the
commercial hatcheries of the country
were unable to carry out their plans
through inability to make shipmen-s
because of express congestion, etc. IL
Is therefore evident that this years
production will be considerably belo "
normal; and this In the face Of greater
requirements assures a good price for
poultry during the fall and winter
months.
On March Is there was in this coun-
try about 20 per cent less poultry
than at the same time last year The
Government is urging that every farm
in the country carry as many hens as
can be conveniently handled, so those
farmers who must dispose of profitable
hens during the coming summer
should sell to other farmers who can
care for them. The only poultry tina,
a patriotic and thrifty farmer would
sell for market during the next six
months are old roosters, no longer ,e.
CURED for breeding purposes; surplus
young roCsters. as fryers and sol,
roasters, and hens which can not pos.
sibly be made to do their bit in the
way of laying eggs.-J. L. Prehn. Ex

AT least the universal and contin-

that the great drive was under way,
was not heard in these parts, which
leads to the conclusion that hens are
an ungrateful lot.
AT late hour last night, after the
hens had had every opportunity to
make good on the first day of the re,
lay contest, not a single hen hoarder
was reported as suffering from shell
shock, brought on by the discovery
of more eggs than the hens contract
called for before the peace treaty
was signed They didn't even deliver
the customary number It's little

The fact remains that yesterday they

didn't lay anything else.
