swollen and the fowl Is disin-
clined to stand, rheumatism has

bury the carcass.
When the bird seems lame and
has small swelling In It's foot,
remove to a house with no
perches and oblige 1t to roost on
q bed Of straw. Bumhle-foot Is,
easily cured In the early stages
If the cause Is at once removed.

ly to the nest without laying,
she Is usually suffering from

TOOL SHEDS MOST VALUABLE
Shelter Costs Comparatively Little
When Considering Damage 70
Unsheitered Tools.

A tool shed costs little compared to
the risk of neglecting the implements.
Binders. mowers. hay presses, tractors,
sIlage cutters and other machines rep
resent considerable capital and It is
economy to shelter and care for them
when not In use. The shed Is really
insurance upon implements from sun,
rain and rust, and there Is another adj
vantage beside the loss and deteriora-
lion, and that Is saving time.

IMPORTANT TO GIVE VARIETY
Duplicate Spring Conditions 40 Near

Winter Season.

Everybody gets eggs in the spring.
Why7 Because spring is the natural
laying season. If we want eggs at
other times Of the year we must "fool"
the hen by duplicating spring condi-
lions as nearly as possible.
Variety is important in the winter
ration. A hen Graves and seeks diff

u. s. TAKES OVER ROADS
M'ADOO ORDERS FREIGHT MOVE
MENT SPEEDED UP.
Non.Essential Articles and Cnneces-
sary Traffic to be Cut Out
in the Near Future.

Washington, Dec. 2S.--The rail-
roads of the United States passed in
to government possession at noon to-
day as Secretary McAdoo, designat-
ed by President Wilson as director
general of railroads, was delegatlng
to the railroads war board the task
of operating them for the present.
The war board, comprising flve
of the country's foremost railroad
executives who have been in supreme
command of railroads for the last
nine months, were called into confer
ence at II o'clock to discuss plans
for welding all transportation lines
into. a single government-operated
system. They left the treasury de-
partment two hours later under in
structions to continue their func-
tions and to submit Immediately
plan of operation to the director gen.
eral.
FIRST FOFHldl OIuCI.
Tonight Mr.. McAdoo issued his
frst formal order designed to speed
up freight movement, telegraphing
ali railroad presidents and directors
instructions to move the freight by
most convenient and direct routes.
At the same time he ordered them
to continue operation of their lines
in conformity with the presidents
proclamation putting them under
government control.
There was no indication tonight
whether Mr.. McAdoo intended even
tually to displace the war board with
an organization of his own or to
continue it's organization for the du-
ration of the war.
Pooling of Traffic.
The order that freight move by
the most expeditions routes opens
the way for a pooling of traffic i'm
possible heretofore by reason OF the
statutes designed to prevent the
practice by carriers operated under
private direction. It eliminates from
the shipper the right to route his
freight as he wishes and leaves to
the railroad traffic manager the task
OF sending it INST directly and where
there is least congestion.
