The campaign for the Third Liber-
ty Loan will be opened on the 9Th

claration of state of war between
the United States and Germany.
The amount, terms, and conditions
of the loan are dependent upon fur
ther legislation and will be announc-
ed as soon as Congress has granted
the necessary powers.
Secretary McAdoo chose the 9Th of
April as the day to open the cam
paign as the most fitting date to
call for patriotic response to the
summons to duty to every American,
to ask from the people at home the
same fervent patriotism that actu-
ates our gallant sons. on the battle
fields of France and on the waters
of the Atlantic. .~5g, i

inferior FEEDS ARE
OFFERED TO FARMERS

On account Of the enormous GUAM
tity of inferior farm feeds which are
now being dumped on the Minnesota
market, A. D. Wilson, chairman of
the State Committee on Food Pro-
duction and Conservation, calls at
tention to the announced purpose of
the state dairy and food commission
to enforce the 1907 feed law, which
has not heretofore been enforced be-
cause the law makes no provision for
funds with which to secure enforce
ment.
The dairy and food commission an
nounces now: however, that after
March 81 any agent, employe, retail
err or manufacturer who has in his
possession, offers for sale, or sells
any feeding material which is not
labeled accordign to the state law
and which is not accompanied by q
guarantee of the percentage of chem.
ical nutrients present in the feed
will be prosecuted. Prosecution will
also follow if the. percentage Of
chemical nutrients is found to b.
lower than that stated on the label
The dairy and food commission al
so says it is the duty Of every feeder
to bring facts with regard to infer
ior feeds to the attention of his loca
dealer and it is the duty Of the loca
dealer to demand the necessary fact,
from the shipper or manufactures
otherwise, the local dealer will him
self become liable to prosecution
Interstate shipments of feed ar
subject to the federal laws and til
federal authorities will cooperat
with the state dairy and food com
mission. IT III y, .z.*. i r. E.

Farmers and other breeders Of
poultry should practice selectiye
mating TO improve their hocks and
as an economic proposition. There
are many good reasons for selective
mating Of the breeding il our poul-
try. III. u.
It is through this practice that
breeds, varieties and strains have
bee built up to an ideal. It is
through this plan Of breeding that
the two minute horse was produced,
the cow that makes a record of more
than 1000 pounds Of butter and the
hen that lays 300 eggs in year. In
other lines Of selective breeding the
same evolutions have been brought
about. =" ~. ~: -. -. !
Why select the breeding pen? Be-
cause, in every flock Of hens there
are comparatively few that approach
the ideal of their kind, and not all Of
those possess the characteristics and
conformation of the good layer.
Then, too, the late developing pullets
and the hen lacking in vigor will be
laying during the breeding season, if
at no other time, and thus the hatch
ing of chicks lacking vitality.
All these can be overcome by care
full selection of the breeders and
greater interest will be engendered
in our poultry operations at the
same time.
Progressive farming at once sug-
gets the Importance of the selecting
one of the various breeds of varieties
of standardized fowls, and breeding
it pure. Study the correct type of
your breed and follow closely in mat
ing up your breeding pens, but char
acteristics or habits count for even
more than type in detecting the good
layer, and this important feature
must not, on any account, be over
looked. The good layer is always &C.
tive and alert. She is up and hust-
ling early in the morning, and the
latest on the roost at night. She
stands squarely on legs set well a.
part, has deep, broad body with
great capacity, comparatively
short, we'll curved beak, a broad
crown to her head, and fine texture
to the comb. She is usually a good
singer and always looking for her
feed. Good disposition in a hen is
an asset every time, and should be
cultivated. The male heading the pen
is half the flock, and it is very i'm
portant that his dam possess all the
characteristics above stated.
The size of the breeding pen must
be adjusted to the needs Of the
owner. If the sale of the Matching
eggs is not to be part of the bust
ness, it will be easy to decide the
number of breeders you will need.
1t should be the rule to have the
pen large enough that Matching eggs
would not need be held more than a
week in collecting enough for set
ting. In all except the smallest mat
ings, it will be found advantageous
to use two males for each pen, alter
mating them every other day, and re-
member that yearling hens are much
better than pullets for breeders as
they give better fertility, better
hatchability and stronger chicks.
1t will not be big task on most
farms to provide an adequate run
for breeding pen and it will be
found a profitable investment.

Easy Way to Kill
Rats and Mice

There is no need of suffering from
the depredations of rats and mice
now that Stearns' Electric Paste is
readily obtainabIe at nearly every
store. A small box of this effective
externniator costs but few cents
and is usually sufficient TO completely
rid the house, store or barn of rats
and mice. The U. S. Government has
bought thousands of packages of
Stearns' Electric Paste to extermin-
ate rats and mice. The Paste is also
efficient in destroying cockroaches
and waterbugs.
