Miss Mercedes Lorenzo, playing Ed

provide the actual motive power on
which the play is run.
Buck is funny. Teddy is vivaciOus

FOWLS EAT WASTE MATERIAL
On Some Farms Chickens Pay for
Themselves by Destruction Of In
furious Insects.

From the United States Department o,
Agriculture.)
Chickens as by-product Of general
farming find much of their feed in the
waste materials that otherwise would
serve no useful purpose. The atten-
ton and labor they require can be CIV
en- largely even by children, and should
not require the employment Of addi-
tional hired workers. On some farms
the chickens practically pay for them
selves by their destruction Of orchard
and vegetable insects. On others they
help to pay for themselves by their
production Of manure, which when
properly used largely increases the
value Of the land. Fifty fowls will an
nually produce at least ton Of ma
nure that can be made as valuable as
commercial fertilizer.
