Do Your Hens Earn Their Board.

Iu order TO increase egg pro-
ductiCn it is necessary to elimli--
nate the producer, says FL.
Q. Knandel, IN charge of poul
Try extension at the Pennsylva
ia State College.
A hen must lay eighty eggs to
oay for her feed alone. Fifteen
additional eggs are required to
Jay for labor and depreciation
Hence a hen must lay more than
ainety five eggs each year to re
turn profit to her owner.
Vigor is the most important
qualification of a laying hen,
Tuat quality Is indlcAted by short
zoe nail, stubby beak, activity,
rising early and retiling late,

addition a hen should have long
broad back not punched at the

order to have plenty OF capacity, /,

Save The Hens.
Advertisement.

Every pullet and young her
sold for food this winter means
q reduction of from five to twelve
dozen eggs in the potential egg
supply of next spring and sum-
mer.
Hundreds of thousands of far
mers who have not raised poultry
will dos next spring and summer
responding to the demand fol
more chickens and eggs as thai
beef and pork will be released tc
help Win the War. They will
need young hens.
The United States Department,
of Agriculture urges the saving
of fowls Of producing qualities,
20 that they may be used for
steck IN the early spring.
WHY HATCH EARLY.
Chickens hatched early IN the
spring are large in the sum mer,
nature early In the fall, and lay
eggs in the winter. They will
sit early the following spring,
produce earlier chickens-and
the process will be repeated by
the off spring.
But the chickens hatchad q!
In the spring will not matuf
until lat3 IN the fall-so late that
they will not lay In the winter,
They will not sit untll late in the
following sprlng-and again tht
process will be repeated.
The jury finds that the argu-
ment is all in favor of early hatch
ing-especlally this year.
EARLY HATCHED CHICKENS
STRONGER
The early hatched chicken is
not only the chicken that laws
the winter egg, but it Is TIA
chicken best able to withstand
disease and parasites.
1t is in the midsu N mer months
that chickens are hnrt most by
lice. The late hatched has moi
had time to become large or
strong enough to resist lice al
tacks, but the early Matched
chicken by midsummer has be
come strong and hardy enougL
to do so. And because the early
devel pment Of the early hatched
bird has preceded the extremely
hot months, it is more apt to live
through the sum mer.

AS pullets do not have the vitality
that hens have, they produce
small eggs; and, consequently,
small chicks and they have no

Public School
Will Open On
Next Tuesday

We are requested to state that the
public schools will open on next
Tuesday, Notwithstanding the fact
that rumors have been circulated to
the effect that the opening date had
been postponed.
Parents and children should make
all necessary arrangements in adj
vance and in this way avoid the rush
that always necessarily comes on the
opening day of school. Students that
have been assigned to their grades
for the coming year should ascertain
the books that will be required and
secure them before the rush comes.
This information may be ascertained
at the Boyd Drug Co., where the
books are on sale, provided you know
where you have been assigned.

DR.. S. E. Myers
Severely Burned

DR.. E. M. Myers, we'll known
physician of Bulls Gap, was badly
burned at an early hour Sunday
morning while pouring gasoline in
his car tank, which ignited from the
lantern he carried with him.
The members of the family were
awakened by his calling for help,
and on going to the garage found
DR.. Myers fighting the fire which
was spreading rapidly, and which he
succeeded in extinguishing.
DR.. Fox, of Greeneville, was called,
who found it necessary to graft skin
in places. Friends will regret to
know that DR.. Myers will be confined
to his home for possibly several
months.-Morristown Daily Mail.

Who Must Register
The Next Time

In order to straighten out many
on the rules governing the next gem
eral registration, we reproduce here
the law regulating the ages coming
under this general registration.
AS may be seen, all who have not
arrived at the age Of 46 before the
day Of registration, are required to
register, The general impression has
been that all who had reached the
age of 45 years were exempted. This
is not true-you have to be 46 years
of age before the day of registra-
tion in order to escape the draft.
Following is the ruling:
"All persons must register who
shall have attained their 18th birth
day and shall not have attained their
46th birthday on or before the day
set by the President for registration.
The only exceptions are:
(A) Persons who, prior to the
day set for registration by the Presi-
dent, have registered either under
the terms Of the Act approved May
10, 1917, or under the terms of the
public resolution Of Congress ap-
pl wed May 20, 1918, whether called
for service or not;
OBJ Officers and enlisted men of
the regular army, officers appointed
and men Of the forces drafted under
the provisions of the Act approved
May IS, 1917; officers and enlisted
men of the National Guard while
in the service of the United States,
and the officers of the Officers Re-
serve Corps and enlisted men in the
Enlisted Reserve Corps while in the
service of the United States; and
(C) Officers and enlisted men of
the navy and marine corps, and Of
ficers and enlisted men and enrolled
men of the Naval Reserve force and
Marine Corps Reserve while in the
service of the United States"
