 As to becoming a citizen of this country. there is little possibility for you if you continue to hold to the pc sition you have expressed to me. It will not be as easy to obtain citizen ship here in the future as in the past.
 If you still hold the views express ed in your letter fully approve your attitude, that you cannot honorably accept fayors for something which you do not merit. in which event I will try to locate one more worthy, but if you have concluded to k, serve as a faithful soldier I will be much pleased to have you advise me as to your fav orite brands of tobacco or as to any other comforts to which I can con- tribute
 I was sorry, indeed. to receive such letter, which was surprise and shock to me.

 Ft. Seward. June IS, 1918 Dear Sir
 Replying to your favor I will state that fundamentally we are of the same opinion, my time for becoming an American citizen in the natural or der Of things is not quite up yet AS for coming to this country for the sole purpose of epriching myself, can dis pell for I brought more wealth in than 1 have ever had since.
 As for other Norwegians that is here I d. not know and don't care, it is none of my affair. If you want to uphold them as purely merean- ary lot I believe you do them an in- justice. You must be aware that for the last year it has been impossible for men between 21 and 31 to leave the country
 Shirking responsibility to my native land and this has been far from my thoughts The United States has not given protection to intended citizens. at least, have seen people deported that have had their first papers.
 America did not start the war. neither did Belgium. America enter ed the war when her own rights were trampled under foot. The same stand ards must also apply to Norway. What should be done to me I could not say T know one thing that would be abso- lutely fair to both sides: discharge from the army and opportunity to leave for home. As for prison camp I don't think it would be right. I have never laid two straws crossways for anybody in all my life, am not criminal My experience in camp here the last few days is such that I could not be naturalized and at the same time keep my self respect see your point of view, hope that you will tolerate mine I thank you for the interest and kindness shown me.

GOOD HANDLING SAVES EGGS
Big Loss Can Be Prevented II Pro.
Queer and Country Merchant
Take Precautions.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Not long ago four men worked half
a day grading current receipts" of
eggs as they were received at city
market. They candled out one hun
dred dollars worth of rots, spots, and
incubated eggs. This loss could so
easily have been prevented If only the
producer and the country merchant
had handled the eggs promptly.
The hen lays fresh egg; the con-
sumner demands fresh egg. Eggs are
a highly perishable product, and grad,
ually deteriorate with age Heat Is
their enemy cold is their friend. The
shorter the time and the more direct
their route from nest to packing house.
the smaller the opportunity for loss.
The proper handling of eggs Is not a
one-man Job. Many people are con-
cerned In 1t. Their interests are COM
mon, and mutual understanding and
cooperation between them benefit all
alike.
The farmers part In the general
scheme of good marketing Is to bring
good eggs to market. To accomplish
this, he should market his eggs FIRE.
Quently, not let them accumulate.
The dealers job is to keep the eggs
good. His slogan should be "ship
promptly and properly" The sooner
an egg Is put under refrigeration and
started for the market, the better Its
quality when 1t reaches Its final des-
tination, and the higher its value.

HUNS FATE WRITTEN
ON FARM WINDOWS
Tour Through Agricultural SEQ
tons Shows Real Power Be-
hind Uncle Sans Forces.

Three months after the last Liberty
Loan campaign one Of the workers at
New York headquarters decided to
spend his vacation touring through the
farm districts of New Jersey and New
York. Miles of driving over splendid
automobile roads brought him to the
bank of beautiful little stream wind
ing its way among dairy farms. He
stopped to enjoy the unusual privilege
of lolling in the grass and listening to
the music of the water, and he could
not help contrasting the quiet of the
place with the noise and hustle of the
great city.
Dreaming idly along, he recalled the
tremendous display and excitement of
the great 'bond-selllng drive. He heard
again the blare of the street bands, the
raucous roar of the street corner
speakers, the tramp of thousands of
marchers, and the noise of it all en-
livened him and reminded him it was
time to continue his trip.
He drove on past bend in the road,
and not a house was In sight. Two
more turns, nearly mile further
along, and he saw service flag proud
ly displayed In farmers window. To
him 1t was unusual. He thought OF
the patriotic outbursts in the Metropo-
lis and could not help contrasting the
noisy displays of patriotism with this
quiet message
The house disappeared from sight.
and soon another came in sight. Again
Red Cross, Food Administration and
Liberty Loan pastors. THAT man
must be an enthusiast like we have
home" thought the traveller, and drove
on.
1t took him ten days to finish his
the way. At almost every farm there
was message In the window-either
service star with Its red border, or
one Of the other brightly colored slips
of paper or several of them--telllng
in eloquent silence what each deniZen
the war. And when he returned to the
city he burst into Liberty Loan head
quarters with this message;
Don't talk to me any more Of pa
triotism in the city. Yes, it's here, but
you have to dig 1t out. Go into Gods
own country, among those farms in
Jersey and Upstate and see real pa
trlotism. You don't have to talk to
anyone. Just ride past the houses.
Each one bears It's own particular mes
sage to the kaiser, and I'm very proud
to say that am a dweller in the state
that lends its sons so gladly to free
dom's cause. The, Hun would freeze
his feet on trip like that. He'd find
out something real about American
unity. Each farm screams It's message
from a window, and 1t all means one
thing. Victory is sure. And after the
Fourth Liberty Loan window space
will be at premium In the rural Sec
tions."

KEEPING CHICKENS IN TOWN
One Of Best Ways for Loyal American
to Help Win War Is to Raise
Hens In Back Yard.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricuture)
Every true American Is asking,
"How can / best do my part to help
win the warp One of the means to
this end Is to set the back yard to
work. Those who have suitable land
are cultivating vegetable gardens to
help increase the food supply There
are, however, many back yards not
suitable for the making of a garden
which may be profitably utilized for
back yard poultry keeping. In every
household, no matter how economical
the housewife, there is a certain
amount Of table scraps and kitchen
waste which has feeding value. but
which, If not fed, finds Its way into
the garbage pail. Poultry is the only
class of domestic animals which Ia
suitable for converting this waste ma
terial, right where 1t is produced in
the city, into wholesome and nutritious
food in the form of eggs and poultry
meat. A small number of chickens can
be kept In almost any back yard.
If poultry houses are not available,
hens can be housed at small expense in
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1918-09-27

piano boxes. or other large packing
cases. Their eggs should make a sub
stantial addition to the family food
supply. Each hen in her pullet year
should produce ten dozen eggs. The
average size of the back yard flock
should be at least ten hens. Thus
each flock would produce In year 100
dozen eggs, which at the conservative
value Of Is cents a dozen would be
worth $25. By keeping a back yard
poultry flock the family would not only
help In reducing the cost of living, but
would have eggs Of quality and fresh
ness which are often difficult to obtain.
Poultry keeping, although q COM
paratively simple undertaking, will be
successful in direct proportion to the
study and labor which are expended
upon it. There Is an abundance Of
good material on the subject, but
Back Yard Poultry Keeping" (Farm-
ers' Bulletin 889), recent publication
OF the United States department of
agriculture, contains all the general
directions needed to make a start. II
tells how to overcome the objections
to keeping poultry in the city what
kinds of fowls to keep, the size Of the
flock computed according TO the size
Of the back yard, gives definite instruc-
tons as to the best kinds of chicken
houses to build, with bill of materials
for same, directions as to feeding the
fowls, Matching and raising chicks, pre-
vention of diseases and pests. and
many other matters essential to the
success Of the undertaking. Another
helpful bulletin of general character
is "Hints 10 Poultry Raisers" (Farm-
ers' Bulletin 528). This gives great
deal of useful and authoritative infor-
nation within very small compass.

A Very Pleasing Entertainment

The Been Greet entertainment of
last evening, under the auspices of
the Skowhegan High school, was of
thoroughly profitable and enjoy
able character 1t was the kind of
evening that may be looked back
upon with entire satisfaction. We have
many things that please, as che years
go by and some that are of educatiye
value, but rarely find the two as
happily combined.
The Merchant of Venice the play
presented. was perhaps the great
classic that would be most familiar
to so large an audience. None Of us
but had sufficient knowledge of it to
follow the story, even in a kind of
dialogue that we do not often hear.
The parts so often quoted will have
added value to everyone that heard
them from the Ben Greet Players.
