WAS SURELY -soNE GAME GUY
Most People VIII Admit That Corporal
Bro~ne's Message to His Wife
Contained Truth.

The American advance was being
made in an open field on the banks
of the Vesle river in France, where
the Germans had planted a machine
gun on high ground, which enabled
them to deliver a sweeping fire on the
Americans.
Try as they might the Yanks could
not flank the German position. They
got a pot shot at Fritz and continued
their advance.
Fritz was n0t inclined to expose
himself and kept his gun working.
"Say, sergeant, gimme that gat OF

Browne drew his OWE pistol and,
with an automatic in each hand, he
got up on his haads and knees and

Poultry Keepers Aim to Combine Econ

that viii help to quickly increase the
nations supplies OF poultry and eggs.
It is not the high cost Of feed alone,
since America entered the war, that
has led to more careful attention to
the routine work in poultry keeping,
and to greater judgment and skill in
feeding. The saving Of money has
been an incentive, but, above and be
yond that, every poultry keeper real
ICES that getting better production
from less feed is doing double duty in
conservation and saving
feed and at the same time increasing
food.
That American poultry keepers are,
on the whole, more efficient in egg pro-
ductiOn seems to be plainly indicated
by the fact that, as compared with the
period before the war, market receipts
of eggs increased more than receipts
Of poultry. Reports from persons in
touch with production in many lOcali-
ties agree that more eggs are being
produced from the usual numbers of
hens kept. and in many instances from
smaller numbers. 1t may well be pre-
sumed that such efficiency In one line

Among professional breeders OF

the benefits Of rigid selection Of breed

young stock while growing. The high
cost Of feed hit this class Of poultry
keepers hardest because, even under
normal conditions, a considerable part
of their stock must be carried for quite
long time after coming to maturity
before It is sold. The concentration
of interest and industry upon things
Immediately relating to the conduct OF
the war and the production Of food
tended to decrease the demand for

0KRA GOOD IN GARDENS

Okra, or gumbO, Is a desirable
addition to the vegetables grown
in the home garden. It has been

North.
In regions where the growing
seasons are very short, okra
