KILLS "a CONTRACTS
GOVERNMENT TAKES ACTION
AGAINST sHlPBUILDERs.
No More Private Yards Will Be De-
veloped With Government Money
Lumber Communicated.

Washington, March 2.--Summary ac-
ton against mismanaged shipyards
was announced on Thursday by the
United States shipping board.
TWenty-four steel ship contracts
were Cancelled. Further cancellations
are undey Amusement.
Inspection Is being made of ineffi-
Gent yards with view to cOmman-
deering them.
The first to feel the boards heavy
hand are the Southern ShipbuildiHs
company, Charleston, S. c., which has
just lost the contracts for Is steel
ships, and the Hampton Shipbuilding
company of Norfolk, whose contracts
for eight ships have been cancelled
Edward N. Hurley, chairman Of the
shipping board, said short shrift will
be given to paltering. The board has
lost patience with the South's reced-
ing promise to furnish timber for the.
wooden shipyards.
It is now communicating lumber ON
the property of the members Of the
Southern Pine association, which
holds the bulk of the contracts and
has not filed them.s
The board 1t was said, bluntly, will
finance no more patriotic get-rich-
quick schemes There will be no
more Hog Island shipping programs.
No more private yards will be de-
yelOped with government money. 1t
will start no new shipyards, or sub
sidize incipient ones with cost-pIus
contracts.
The Southern wooden ship program
has not met expectations, according to
the shipping board.
Following fruitless conferences with
the lumber interests, in repeated at
tempts to speed up production Of tim
Der, the shipping board has sent It's
own staff Of loggers into the timber
country, with authority to cOmma4A-
deer all suitable trees.
The shipping board rejected several
offers from men with little or nothing
with which to build ships.

SELLING HENS NOW MEANS
LOSS OF EGG MILLIONS.

To effect saving of 100000
600 eggs for the food supply in
the United States, poultry spe-
cialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture are
making every effort to encourage
farmers to keep their hens until
after the spring laying season
rather than send them to market
at this time. Figures compiled
by the specialists show that
more than 100000 hens. each
capable Of producing 80 eggs, on
an average, are sent to market
from the southern states alone
in the winter and early spring.
The "Save-the-Hen" message is
being sent by the Department
of Agriculture broadcast through
press notices and posters and
through it's county agents, espe
cially in the southern poultry
raising sections, where the prac-
tice is more common.

or three patches, so that much time is
saved in tending to the incubators and
brooders, while the chickens are more
even in size than those that are hatch
ed when the incubating period extends
over a longer time. A fair estimate
for a poultry farm is an incubator
space of one-egg capacity per hen, pro-
vided that about one-half of the flock
is to be renewed yearly and no outside
Matching is carried on. The larger
machines cost less in proportion tc
their capacity than the smaller ones.

Instead of Beef Scrap.

If it is desired to substitute cot.
tonseed meal for beef scraps in the dry
mash for hens the feeder should be
careful not to replace more than half
the beef scrap with this substitute, rs
the result in egg production and in
the quality of the eggs will be unsatis-
factory. Chopped green bone, avail
able at the butcher shop, is an excel
lent substitute for beef scrap when fed
fresh to the hens. Buy it in small
quantities as it does not keep fresh
very long, and when spoiled it is like.

CITY Chickens Need Room.

Whether the backyard poultry keep
er should try to renew his flock either
by Matching and rearing chicks or by
purchasing and rearing day-old chicks
is an open question. Raising chicks
should not be attempted unless a plot
can be provided separate from that to
which there is grass or where a sup
ply of green feed can be furnished.
Matching under these conditions can
best be done with hens.

about as much time to care for 60
as it does for a 300-egg machine, so
mat it is generally advisable to get one
of at least 150-egg capacity, although
special conditions often exist which
make smaller machines valuable. A
small machine is often used in con-
nection with a larger one, placing all
the eggs in the large machine after the
first or second test. IncUbators of
from 300 to 400-egg capacity are gen.
orally used on those large farms which
use individual lamp incubators. Many
poultrymen believe that it pays to have
an incubator capacity large enough to
hatch the bulk Of their stock in two

HOW TO HELP INCUBATOR.

Follow the manufacturers di-
rections in setting up and oper-
ating an incubator.
See that the incubator is run
ming steadily at the desired tenn
perature before filling with eggs.
Do not add fresh eggs to tray
containing eggs which are under
going incubation.
Turn the eggs twice daily af-
ter the second and until the
nineteenth day. Cool the eggs
once daily, according to the
weather, from the seventh to the
nineteenth day.
Turn the eggs before caring
for the lamps.
Attend TO the machine careful
ly at regular hours.
Keep the lamp and wick clean.
Test the eggs on the seventh
and fourteenth days.
Do not open the machine after
the eighteenth day until the
chickens are Matched.

and adding to your days Of torturing
discomfort when. you waste time on
such remedies applied to the surface.
You must reach the cause Of the dis
order, the actual source of the pain,
before you can hope to stop the pain
itself. The cause Of all of these So
called skin diseases is in the blood,
and you cannot reach the blood by
external remedies applied to the sur
face.
Give your blood a thorough cleans
ing with S. S. s., the great old blood
purifier, and you in this way elimi-
nate all impurities which cause skin
diseases and other arrangements,
This is the logical treatment, and it
has proven its great worth in hun
of cases because it is a purely
vegetable remedy and eleanses the
blood of all foreign substances, and
fills the veins with a fresh supply Of
rich, red and vigorous blood. Go to
your drug store ard get a bottle of
S. S. S. today and get on the right
treatment, and waste no further time
on washes, ointments and lotions,

ed the Art association of the need of
thus bringing people into touch with
the art exhibits of the Museum.
Clubs of a strictly cultural charac-
ter, civic organizations and education

Unusual interest attaches to the spe-
cial loan exhibit made possible through
the interest of Portland people owning

be hung in the small gallery, includes
a notably interesting canvas never be-
fore seen in Portland. 1t is "The Gar
den, 4" by Frederic Carl Frieseke, own
ed by Judge Charles H. Carey.

Trading Negligible
Price Changes Small

New York, Mar. 20-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Moderate strength at the opening
of the stock market gave way TO soft
ness, with a sharp reaction, notably
General Motors, which lost some four
points, later regaining a point or more
of the loss. Narrow fractional move
ments ruled in the steel, copper and
equipment groups.
Distillers securities and United
States Industrial Alcohol were strong.
Rails were thin.
The course of prices in the last hour
was virtually unchanged and trading
was negligible.

Baker stood with his head uncovered
by a roadside cemetery where half a
dozen soldiers are buried while the mil

gress. He remained uncovered, in silent
tribute to the dead, throughout the ser
vice.
While visiting a hospital where there
are several gas victims undergoing
treatment, Baker talked with a wound-
ed officer who had been decorated with
the French eroix de guerre.
"I've got a wal cross, but l can I

authority to wear it, was the reply.

Eczema is called a skin disease be-
canse the tiny little germs which
cause the disease set up their colony
on some portion of the skins surface,
and here spread their irritation that
soon begins to burn Ike flames Of
fire.
There are other forms of so-called
diseases of skin, such as letter, boils,
pimples, acne, e~rysipelas, scaly erup-
lions, blotches and rough irritations,
that are a source of much pain and
annoyance.
And, while these disorders are gen.
orally referred to as skin diseases,
they are really traceable to a disor-
dered condition of'the blood, and they
are never experienced by anyone
whose blood is free from impurities.
If you are a victim of any form of
