Army Dentistry.

One Of the discoveries of the war
has been the number of defective
teeth among men otherwise fit, says
the Evening Standard. England is tho
worst-dentured of any civilized nation,
An authority states that one-tenth OF
orr armies are constantly incapacitat-
ed through teeth troubles. This hgufe
might be less but for the fact that the
soldier has a prejudice against army
dentistry-he has an idea it is "rougn
and ready" Trench mouth makes raw
ages among British soldiers, whereas
among others-the Canadians, for IN
stance-it has been practically elm
mated. A dentist suggests that we
should have panel dentists ike panel
doctors. and he would commence with
tbe children and take the evil at It's
source.

1t may pay to keep late-hatched pull

Ing should be the rule at all stages.
It is impossible to grow pullets care
lessly and on short rations until they
reach the age when they should be
full grown and mature, and then bring
them forward quickly by a short
course of good management.
A pullet that is worth keeping as
layer is worth good care and full rations
all the time. A pullet that is not con-
sidered worth keeping should be eaten
or marketed as soon as she is eatable.
The one exception to this is where
there is more than enough waste feed
for all the poultry kept. Even then it
will pay better to sell the unthrifty
birds as soon as their character is APP

STRANGE INCIDENT OF WAR
How Two Young EngIishmen Joined
Army Together, Fought Together,
and Were Killed Together.

More than once attention has been
directed in our columns to the curious
meetings, and condolences, often
stranger than fiction, brought about
by the war.
Sometimes these are happy, more
often tragic. Strangely enough, it is
the tragic story which is frequently
the more interesting.
One of the most remarkable in this
category concerns two young soldiers
who recently made the supreme sac
rifice. They were Lance Corporal VIII
liam Roe and Lance Corporal George
Roe. Both were Englishmen, but ma
tives of widely separated parts, ana
in no way related to each other.
Bearing the same surname, the laus
were twenty years of age. Each
worked for a cooperative society,
and was called to the colors on the
same day. They were drafted to the
same unit, became great chums, and
received their first stripe together.
After going to the front they were
buried by the same shell, but came out
unframed. A couple of months later
this experience was repeated, but, un-
fortunately with less happy results
The lads were killed at the same mo-

Growing chicks should be looked aft
er very closely, as overerowding is
liable to happen, owing to the fact
that the chicks are getting larger and
need more room. This is very Inn
portant point. Care given the flock
at this time means a profit; lack Of
care, a loss. The three important
points are ID fresh air, especially dur
ing the night, (2) fresh water at all
times and (3) clean quarters.
In every instance where egg pro-
duction is the end sought, the pullets
should be put into winter quarters as
soon as possible. Their winter quar-
tiers should be ready in advance. AT
this season cockerels should be Sc
lected for next springs breeders and
placed by themselves with plenty of
run If possible. None but strong, Wig

BY VIM. A. RADFoRD.

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject Of building, for the readers of this
paper. On account of his wide experience
as Editor, Author and Manufacturer. he
is, without doubt. ethe highest authority

The living room, where for the most
part the family life eenters, is undoubt-
eddy the most important apartment in
the entire house, and to its arrange

should be given, lest through over=or-
namentation and elaboration of detail
1t lose the simple CHEEKY atmosphere
that should be its chief characteristic,
and without which it lacks the most
essential asset to its success.

GOOD HIGHWAYS HELP TRADE
Act as a Spur to Business Besides Civ.
Ing Pleasure to Motorists-Bene-
fit Everybody.

TO some people good roads mean
simply an advantage for the motorist,
a convenience that was created and Is
maintained for the motorists benefit,
enabling him to get from place to
place without racking his car to pieces
or experiencing the necessity of being
towed out of hub-deep mud.
Yet there is another side to this sub
ject of the value Of good roads, writes
L. J. Ollier In Chicago Tribune. Good
roads mean more than an opportunity
to get out on tours from the health
giving and pleasure standpoints.
Good roads are closely allied with
progress and prosperity. They pro-
mote the more widespread use of au-
tomobiles, and statistics prove automo-
biles and prosperity always go to-
gether.
1t is fair to say that good roads ben
eft everybody: the city dweIlers, those
who live in towns, and those who live
on farms. OF course, the fast-growing
use of motorcars--the fact that auto
mobiles are now considered practical
ly necessity for everybody-has been
the biggest single influence In awak-
ening this country to the fact that
money expended in good roads extern
sions and improvements Is money well
spent.
We can all remember how only a
few years ago city people paid little
attention to good roads, and how farm
ers were even opposed to the expendi-
ture of funds for the betterment OF
highways. That, of course. was before
automobiles came Into such wide
spread usage, in the days when motor
cars were considered an extravaganza
and were owned only by the rich.
Good roads and the automobile have
taken people out into the country.
They have banished forever the isola-
tion of farm life. They have increased
health and prolonged life. They have
enabled people to dig in and put better

DETERMINE SEX IN CHICKS
Difficult to Distinguish Until Head
Parts Begin to Develop, Says
Oklahoma Expert.

A correspondent asks if there is any
way of telling a male chick from a
female when they are week old. The
Ieghorns are probably the quickest
breed to develop, but even with these
1t would be a hard matter to tell a
cockerel from pullet at so early an
age. You Will have to wait until the
head parts begin to develop to have the
difference indicated, according to Prof.
Harry EmbIeton of the department Of
poultry husbandry at Oklahoma A. and
M. college.

efforts into their work as a result Of
the relaxation and broadening-out ex-
periences of the weekend trip into the
country.
The prospect of being able to buy
an automobile and receive the benefits
of good roads has spurred the ambi-
ton and quickened the imagination Of
the man who walks or uses street cars.
He wants to be independent.
He wants to get away from the linn
tied vision that Of necessity must be
his just as long as he is bound to
life Of pounding pavements and cling
Ing to street-car straps. He works
harder and achieves more, with the
prospect of spinning over good roads

enabling just such man to get out

Good roads have been a stimulator
of business. BY means of good roads
an outlet to the congestion of cities
has been afforded. New towns have
sprung up.

of washing in a tin basin on bench

fashion on farms in hot weather, but

and mix with them the bread crumbs.
Form into fiat cakes, dust with bread
crumbs or cornmeal and fry in a little
fat until delicious brown. Varia-
lions: To utilize leftover cereals, use
one cupful of cooked rice, oatmeal or
cornmeal mush with three-fourths cup
full of bread crumbs. Dry cornmeal
or finely ground oatmeal may be
used for stiffening the above mixture,
but in, such case 1t is better to form
into a loaf and bake it In the oven
about % minutes. Other seasonings
may be used In place Of the above. The
amount of liquid will vary in every
case. The mixture should be very
stiff, since the cheese tends to soften

light possible in each and every apart
ment. Frequently, however, rooms In
which the ventilation and light have
been carefully attended to are robbed
of their healthful atmosphere through
the nature of the furniture employed
and thus it will be seen that the equip
ment of room is quite as important
as its construction, and 1t is this point
above all others that the housewife
must bear in mind in the arrange
ment of the living room.
Foes to Comfort and Health.
The living rooms of yesterday were
adorned with heavy curtains, fringed
window cornices, crowds of ornaments,
chimney boards and other devices for
keeping out the air, as well as mante'
curtains, picture throws, and several
other dust accumulators, and it seems
unfortunate that in many homes of
the present some of these same unde-
sirable adjuncts are still used, and no
doubt will continue to be, until all
housekeepers come to a realizing
knowledge of their detrimeat to COM
fort as well as to health.
The stable living room is Just as
popular with the rural women as 1t Is
In the cities. Notice the amplitude of
the living apartments in the farm
house illustrated. Here we have a
full two-story country house, 81 by 81
feet 6 inches in size, including the pro-
lection at the back. 1t is square built
and is covered with q hip roof. The

Use Leftover Boiled Rice.

Here is a use for small quantities
of leftover boiled rice, suggested by
the United States department Of agri-
culture:
Rice With cheese.-Heat one cupful
of boiled rice In two tablespoonfuls of
milk. Add one cupful Of grated cheese,
one-half teaspoonful of salt and other
fiavoring If desired, and cook slowly
until the cheese is melted. Then add
one egg well beaten. Serve on crack
ers or toast.
