the winter I use the ordinary 200
egg incubators. My breeders are made
with the hard coal burners This
method OF heating is far superior to
the oil heaters recommended by some
poultrymen. II the eggs are all hatch
ed during March, So per cent of the
hatch is usually raised, but if Matched
during April or May it is more diffl-
cult to regulate the temperature of the
brooder and many chickens die

breakage and there is much loss that
would be profit If this condition was
remedied.'
Although Mr.. Rugh is enthusiastic
over the poultry business he wouldn t
advise a beginner to start out with
goo or 900 hens but recommends start
ing with 200 or 300 hens and learning
the business by experience before un-
dertaking it in large way.

Ouestionnaiires to Go
Out to New Registrars

EATON, O., Oct. 29.-According to
present plans, the county local board
will begin mailing out questionnaires
this week to registants Of the ages Of
Is and 81 to As. 1t is expected the
missionaries will begin going into
the mails Thursday or Friday and will
continue daily for a period Of ten days.
A total of 1925 will be sent out, at the
rate of 10 per cent. each day. Should
present plans not carry, it is most
likely the papers will be started out
the first of next week. The board has
completed, with very few exceptions,
the classifying of the 1910 who filed
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. between the
ages Of 10 and Sc. No definite date
has been fixed for the physical exam
nations. A large per cent. of the
1910 questionnaires filed have been
forwarded to the district board at
Cincinnati, where claims for eXemp-
ton on agricultural and industrial
grounds will be acted upon. Mailing
of ouestionnaires to the 1877 to As
registrants has been held up on ac-
count of the influenza epidemic. 1t is
believed the situation las improved
sufficiently to now take up the work.

During the winter months they are
given all the corn they can consume
before going to roost. kept a dry
mash before the hens at all times,
making the mash compound of 25 per.
cent of meat scraps. The dry mash
use mostly consists of two parts
bran. one part middlings, $50 parts
hominy meal and one part meat
scraps. I keep oyster shells and clean
water before the birds at all times.
During the summer they have access
to an acre OF alfalfa while in the win.
ter they are given sprouted oats as
green feed"
vented SO many hens from becoming
diseased?" and he said. "the open
front hen house with the back and
the two sides Of the house free OF
cracks and openings to prevent drafts
is one important essential in prevent
ing diseases. During the coolest part
OF the winter cover curtain is pulled
down over the chickens to hold the
heat. l use a dirt floor with plenty
of litter to keep them exercising. The
dirt floor gives better results than
the concrete since it eliminates the
dampness caused by the concrete
floor"
II any of the fowls appear sick they
are isolated at once from the rest of
the flock. If they have the roup, a
small amount of permangranate Of po-
tassium Is put in the drinking water
II they have contracted bad colds,
kerosene is put in the drinking water.
In all cases I try to prevent diseases
by proper feeding and not allowing
drafts in the hen house. The lice
and mites cause much trouble if not
properly taken care of. They reduce
the vitality of the flock and make them
more susceptible to diseases. Every
week the roosts are thoroughly paint
ed with coal oil to which has been
added a small amount of disinfectant
II this is carried on weekly, no trouble
will result from mitesc. If the chick
ems are given a chance to dust them
selves they will take care of the lice
A good dust bath Of dirt is all that
is necessary.
Mr.. Rugh believes in culling out all
poor layers. Although he does not op-
erate trap nests he can tell whether
or not a hen is a good layer by the
physical condition and by the melting
period. He says "the early molters
are always the poorest layers and
these are usually culled out The late
moulters lay well during the spring
summer and late in the fall. These
are usually the ones that lay the best
during the winter months l Gull out
all birds that are weak in vitality, and
those who do not hustle for their
food"
Mr.. Rugh believes there is no best
breed Of chickens but takes fancy
to the white Leghorns. He says the
eggs sell as fancy white, on the mar
ket and this breed lays more eggs
than most breeds. If the eggs are
put In the incubator so they will hatch
during the last week of March the

Ludendorff Resigns

The resignation Of Ludendorff, first quarter
master general and reputed to be the brains" OF
the German army, sends into retirement not only
a military leader but also an avowed Pan-Ger-
man for whom Deutschland Ueber Allies" was
the highest good on earth. His retirement is
another prop knocked out under the tumbling
structure which that party tried to erect on the
military dominance of Europe.
With Germany's request for an armlstlce
will come the retirement of many more ruthless
warfare" leaders and simultaneous elevation OF
men of the ilk of Liebknecht the Socialist lead
er, who were clapped into prison or muzzled by
the Potsdam gang.

Fire Prevention Day

when we come to the question of fire pre-
vention, there are three main points to consider.
First, good citizen will try in every way to
avoid being cause of danger through permit
ting any of the practices that we have been
warned about Second, he will remove all dan
gerous conditions that he may find in his own
home, and third he will train himself to recog-
nize dangerous conditions in the community and
will use his influence both to have them removed,
and to educate others to habits of carefulness.
It is often said that the enormous fire loss of the
United States with its terrible destruction of life
and property, is very largely preventable. Sta
tistics prepared by The National Board Of Fire
Underwriters, through its Acturial Bureau, will
show how foolish and unnecessary are the causes
for most of the fires. The correction must come
not merely from better fire departments and
better building laws, but from educating every
family, and every member of every family, to
recognize causes of danger and to practice habits
of consideration and carefulness. If this could
be done, fire would almost cease to be a public
peril. If each of the school children in the United
States would learn how to prevent fire and would
form habits Of carefulness and consideration, it
would go far in saving lives and property.
Each such child would be to this extent a
good citizen" P. P. CLAYTON,
United States Commissioner Of Education.

MAKING HENS LAY
az J. c. KLINE, County Agent

az J. c. KLINE, County Agent
How to produce $3.50 dozens OF
eggs in nine months or rs dozens on
the average daily is story told the
writer by J. l.. Rugh a Wayne county
; poultryman. a few days ago.
When asked whether there was any
money in the poultry business with
the present high price OF feeds MT.
Rugh replied by giving me the privil-
eye of examining his records for the
year of 1917 and 1918. His records
show that during 1917 the 700 hens
produced 1876 cases of eggs or $3.50
tozens. During 8 months Of 1919
500 hens produced $3.50 dozens OF
eggs. The average price received on
the New York market for these eggs
was IS cnts per dozen making total
of $3,3s250.
TIL cost Of feeding this flock at the
present war prices for feed Is an item
OF no small expense. The dry mash.
oyster shells, and graina cost on the
average about so per month. Sub
tracing $500 from the total receipts
leaves a profit of $2,752.50. This
leaves a handsome profit even though
the price of feed is high These fig

The question was asked how to care
and feed the laying flock? And Mr..
Rugh replied as follows: Feeding
and caring for the flock Is one Of the
most essential things in making the
hens lay. We can all have good poultry
from stock showing high egg produc-
ton records but unless these birds
are properly taken care Of they will
not lay any better and probably not
as we'll as the common stock. 1t is a
hard matter for me to lay down any
hard fast rules for feeding since all
poultrymen have a particular feed
and method of feeding.
Since wheat cannot be fed to poul-
try, I am feeding oats as grain feed
during the summer with corn added
during the winter The hens are Civ
en- about all the oats they will clean
up each morning during the summer
