C. V. Hill, of Trenton, gave d
most interesting and practical talk 10
the members of the Hunterdoh
Poultry Association, at their meeting
Monday evening in the city COM
missioners' room. He made mum
Der Of strong points, speaking from
an actual experience dating back 10
boyhood days. He urged growers
not to crowd growing chicks, either
in the hovers or brooding houses, as
they rapidly overflow any place as
their growth progresses. He explain
ed his own disastrous experiences
from this mistake, which caused the
death of many birds. Baby chicks
should not be fed under thirty-slH
hours, and forty-eight hours is ever
better, he said.
Joseph Haines of Neshanlc valley
and Charles H. Stewart, of Ringoes
were elected to the membership.
1t was decided to hold the annua
meeting on May 20, when the poultry
association will be entertained by

Tried to Drown Self.

Fred Bye, an employee of the
Lambertville Rubber Company, and
resident of South Union street, mar
rowly escaped drowning on Friday
when he jumped into the canal
basin, with the evident intent of
committing suicide. Peter F. Reil-
ley, S. Main street merchant, was
nearby and succeeded in rescuing
the young man before he could &C
complish his purpose.
1t is said that he worried quite a
bit of late about possible army ser
vice, always having been of a re-
firing disposition and not disposed
to mingle with the crowds, and it is
believed to have temporarily un-
balanced his mind. He will be taken
to a hospital for treatment.

was the same gun his father hand
led he did not know, however. Rev.
Mr.. Lee spoke, followed by the
singing of America" by the assem-
blage, and the giving of the flag
salute. The meeting closed with
benediction by DR.. Boddis.

EPOULTRY CATECHISM}
! AND CRITICISM )

Do you keep chickens?
If not why not?
If so, are they approved breeds?
What kind Of fowl are kept in your
neighborhood?
Are they just "chickens," or are
they real, working hens. earning their
grub?
Can you name five or six Of the best
breeds Of hens and describe the out
standing qualities Of each?
Do turkeys, ducks or geese possess
any advantages over hens7
Under what circumstances might
this be so?
How long does it take to hatch a
hens egg, a duck egg, a goose egg,
turkey egg?
Do you sell more eggs than you
eat?
How many eggs did you sell last
year?
Did you calculate the average price?
Do you know what your hens cost
to feed?
Which sells for the most-a Ply
mouth Rock, a Leghorn, a Brahma
A goose, turkey or duck-per pound?
Whose fault is it if the hens are
not laying?
Are you calculating on having lay
ing hens next winter?
Do you know that hens can be made
to lay under scientific conditions and
that "chance" doesn't make poultry
keeping profitable?
Has the hen as much right to COM
plain of her housing, feeding or med
ical care as you have about not get
ting more eggs?
Reverse this question. Does the hen
feel cheap?
Seventy-fOur per cent of an egg is
water. Do you expect eggs from
thirsty hens? Nix.
Fifteen per cent Of an egg is pro-
tein. Protein is the food that makes
muscle and lean meat. Hens get pro-
TEN from worms, bugs, insects, grass
hOppers and meat scraps. Can your
hens get enough of these summer and
winter? You can't have sausage if you
have no meat to grind up, Ell?
Rabbits, squirrels, buttermilk and
butchers offal make good egg-prOduc-
ing diet.
An egg is ten per cent fat. Fat is
made from starch. Grain, especially
corn, is rich in starch.
An egg is one per cent mineral mat
ter, mostly lime. This forms shell.
See that the hens get enough. Can't
sell soft shell eggs, can you?
Some people might as well expect
the cat to lay eggs as the hen when
one compares the care they both get.

BENTON BACK FROM FRANCE
Says Opinion in That Country is That
Spring Will See Beginning Of
the End.

Looking hard and fit and with a
tan that was acquired on the fields OF
France, DR.. Guy Potter Benton, presi-
dent of the University of Vermont,
arrived in Burlington Friday after an
absence of full year.
President Benton lost 81 pounds
while engaged in the strenuous work
overseas with the war work council
with Young Mems Christian associa-
ton. He has lost none of his vigor,
however, and alighted from the train
with buoyant step and smiling face. :,
He was greeted by his wife and
ton of the faculty of the university
with their ladies who escorted him to
his home on University place.
DR.. Benton granted an interview an
hour after his arrival.
"When will the war be over?" was
the question asked OF DIR. Benton al
ter courtesies had been exchanged.
"There is general feeling express
ed in France today that next spring
may see the beginning of the end"
said he, and continued, "The French
do not set a date, but they are very
hopeful and optimistic. The English
are also sure of the ultimate results
though they don't care to tell when
1T Will arrive.
cit is the general opinion among
soldiers and civilians alike over there
that dating from the 18th day of July
of this year, the tide definitely turn
ed and that we have the Huns on the
run.
cit was a great stroke when it was
der one head, and very properly this
head should have been Gen. Foch.'
After paying high tribute to the
wonderful ability of Gen. Foch, DR..
Benton enlarged upon the extremely
efficient generalship of Pershing of
the American forces whom the SAM
mics idolize and gave splendid ap-
probation of Gen. Haig Of the Brit
ish armies.
Asked to say something about his
work at the front, DR.. Benton eX-
planned that he had been engaged in
organization work for the Y. M. G. A.
throughout the war district in France.
He was attached to the headquarters
staff of Gen. Sample as chief secre-
tary of the eighth regional district.
This region is in the war zone and
pretty we'll front.
"When I reached France a year ago
there were 200 Y. M. G. A. secretar-
les. Today the number is 5000 and
more arriving all the time.
"The soldiers fully appreciate the
work done by these association work
ers and they are close to the army
wherever they go.
"What about your plans for the fu-
ture, DR.. Benton?"
"Of course the first thing is to get
in touch with the college activities
here.
81 am keeping an open mind as to
what may be my duty in the future.
Manifestly 1 cannot tell now what
may be necessary. If my patriotic
duty appears to be right here l shall
surely remain because of the military
demands of the hour and the chang
ing conditions and needs of the gov
eminent.
"On the other hand, should be
called back for continued service
across, I should certainly go again"
