SLOWING UP FUR
 EVERY INDUSTRY
 IF NJ AUTOMOBILE

Frank E. Ansted president of the Lexington Motor Car company, drew a striking picture in a recent interview at the plant in Connersville, Indiana.
 Suppose for the sake of argument" :" said Ansted, that We imagine this country without the automobile and the many other adaptations of the in- ternal combustion engine.
 What a slowing up there would be immediately in the progress of every single line of endeavorl Men in every line would find that the working day had been practically reduced in time value to six hours or less. Every phase of business usage and of health- giving recreation would be instantly swept away. In their place would come added hours of toll in attempt ing to accomplish. the same tasks which set so lightly upon the efficient man with an automobile who gets about so quickly nowadays and thinks as he goes.
 How keenly we would feel the loss in men on the fields of France and in the training camps whose absence has made added duties for those left be- hind. Imagine too the great drives for Liberty loans, Red Cross and other in- tenslve patriotic campaigns without that great human energizer, the auto mobile.
 Each mans ability to accomplish pig things would suddenly be hemmed Tn with an insurmountable barrier made up of time and effort consumed by the physical exertion of getting from place to place, exhausting yalu- able energy and leaving a trail of things undone behind.
 Then transfer your thoughts to the

existence with the advent of the auto- mobile.
 Industry helpless in the throes of awaiting shipments vital to their pro- duction. Closed shops, men out of employment, chaotic condition of things.
 Gan anyone doubt the utility of the automobile for an instant?
 Then go to the seat of war. With out the automobile Paris would have been in the hands of the Hun. Had it not been for Galleani's timely appear ance with reserves brought up by pressing every passenger car and taxi into service, Paris would have fallen at the Battle of the Marne.
 'No aeroplanes, no submarines, no tanks, no mechanical transports, no armored automobile, for they are all but, adaptations of the automobile. The aeroplane, an automobile motor with wings, the submarine, with fins, the tank, with creepers.
 What change. We would be set back fifty years without the automo- bile.
 Then the industry itself, third larg- est and not without reason. The sud- den discontinuance of this business with the allied trades solely dependent upon it, would mean that 7,630 firms whose capital invested amounts to s1,- 297, 900 900, employing almost a million men and paying s747.200,000 annually | in wages, would be wiped out. Tn. thought is appalling. Tt stands to reason that any busi- ness which has assumed such gigantic proportions is based on good sound demand for it's product; the war mas shown us that with startling clear. ness. It has brought the realization | that the automobile is woven into tht firm fabric of the business, commer. cial, financial and agricultural work to stay"

great American farms, the hope of the Allied cause, and see the great trans formation wrought there. Millions of acres now possible of cultivation would lie fallow through the farmers inabil- ity to work this ground without the assistance the automobile gives him. He would of necessity go back to the old days of isolation, to the intermin- able grind of longer hours. His family would be removed from the advantages now so easy to obtain, his markets for buying and selling requiring longer hours to reach.
 Could the world today afford this loss to the farmer?
 Picture in your minds eye the ir- reparable loss and the positive crip- bling of transportation without the au- tomobile and its consort, the truck. Be- hold our transportation system tied in a veritable Gordian knot. unable to cope with the new era brought into

LODGE LORE
FraternaI Brotherhood


 Maricopa No. 43 held it's regular meeting last night in the K. of P. hall. The meeting was called to order promptly at s. All business was postponed until next meeting night, March g. Immediately after calling to order, the meeting was turned over to Brother and Sister Mahon. A class of four candidates, Mary Josephine Crozier, Mrs. Hazel dell Bradley, Eva M. Davis and Cecil E. Davis were initiated. Brother and Sister Mahon then presented a most interesting program, consisting of musical numbers and readings. Brother Trincans then came to the front and aided by the lodge broth CTS acting as cooks, walters and dish washers served a most delicious and well balanced supper consisting of beans and more beans. Everyone enjoyed the evening immensely and all declared that hereafter they would not miss a single meeting.
 Maricopa No. A has been having a most prosperous winter. March 17 will be the 22nd anniversary of this order, so March has been set aside as Loyalty month and in each lodge there is to be a campaign. known as the Loyalty campaign. Handsome cash prizes are being offered to those bringing in new members. For each s10,000 insurance brought in by a member, $40 is to be given, This is certainly some incentive to work. Under another class, members who can procure only a s1,000 mem- Der are to be awarded. So no ones efforts will be fruitless. Let every member of T. F. B. bring in at least one new member in March.
 Next Saturday night, March 9. is our meeting night again. Important business is to be brought up and disposed of. The women will enter tain and then the carpets will b. rolled up and everyone will have a good time. We would like to have every member present.

EARLY MATCHED CHICKS.
Are More Thrifty and Vigorous, Better
Able to Stand Heat.

early Matched chicks are more thrifty
and vigorous, better able to stand the
| heat OF summer and the attacks of para
sites which are more prevalent at this
season. advises A. l.. Smith, poultry
specialist assigned TO the extension serv-
| ice of the University of Vermont and
state agricultural college by the United
States department of agriculture.
Early Matched pullets lay when eggs
are highest and the cockerels are sold
when prices are high. Get your eggs
into the incubator or under the hen at
once. This is the last call In selecting
your eggs for Matching take only those
that are clean, fresh, uniform in shape
and size and of normal shell. Remember
that in this case, like begets like. If
eggs have to be kept any length of time
they should be placed on their sides and
kept at about 80 to 90 degrees tempera-
ture and turned once daily. The germ
is always on top of the yolk which, in
turn, is lighter than the white and
should not be turned on to the large
end nor kept in one position too long,
so that they may stick to the inner shell
membrane, Heat the incubator up three
or four days before placing the eggs
within to learn its operation, then follow
carefully the manufacturer directions.
If hens are to be used, and il il sd-
visable for small focks, back yarders
and beginners, see that she is deter
mined to set. then remove her quietly
after dark to where she is going to hatch
the eggs See that the nest has fiat
bottom and clean straw, use insect pow
der freely and let her set day on china
eggs. Then put thirteen eggs under her
if in cold weather and fifteen if warm
weather, Let her come off twice daily, |
if she will. to eat, drink and be cranky, |
using same feed as usual.
Test the eggs on the seventh and four
teenth day. if many hens are set at once,
this allows you to double them up. Avoid
making any disturbance. Do not put |
any so-caled medicated eggs under her.
Do not handle the eggs, other than for
testing. II the eggs get dirty. scrape them
clean; do not wash or rub them.
