Poultry Will Help.
Poultry is profitable. No source of
meat supply is as rapid or as cheap.
Every pound of poultry produced will
help in sending pound Of meat across
to the boys that are fighting your bat
ties. Every farm should have care
fully culled flock of not less than two
hundred fowls. The larger the farm,
the larger the flock, and such a flock
should be maintained largely from eco
nOmical reasons. Poultry will pick up
DO per cent of its living from scattered
and wasted grains. They act as scav-
engers in consuming large part Of

to Professor Gearhart.
Where there is pocket in the road,
water will gather after every storm.
Oil works better on sandy soils than
on clay or heavy Sbams. Loan soils
may be helped by sprinkling a light
coating of sand over the oiled surface.
After the first year it is better to ap-
oily from one-quarter to one-third of
gallon of oil to each square yard of
surface in the spring and the same
amount again in the fall.
For laying the dust on city streets,
oiling may be as economical and more
satisfactory than water, particularly
if the soil is sandy. When city streets
are oiled it is best to cover the cross
walks with dust or dirt so that they
will not be covered with oil, When
the oiling process is finished the dust
or dirt may be swept away. Surface
oiled streets are not satisfactory if the
soil is clay or loan, for the oily dust
blows about and is carried into build
ingS and upon walks.

what would otherwise be lost. Poul-
try will prove valuable in eating OBJ
noXious bugs, grasshoppers, worms and
insect pests, that would otherwise de-
stroy food that is valuable. To the
dweller in village, town or city,
well-kept flock of dozen or % good
laying hens will prove profitable. They
can be kept from the lawn, garden,
kitchen and table offal, all of which
makes the choicest kind of poultry
feed with but small addition of grain.
Increase Food Production.
During this next year every effort
should be made to raise and consume
every pound of poultry flesh possible.
1t is one of the easiest and quickest
ways of helping to increase food pro-
duction, and that is what every red
FLOODED American must do to help his
country curing the perlod or the war.
Every pound of meat produced will
help put bullet at the kaiser. Do
your bit.

PROTECTING PEAS IN STORE
Damage by Weevii Overcome by Use
Of Air-SIaked Lime or Liquid
Carbon Bisulphide. ~

The difficulty of keeping seed peas
free of weevil damage is overcome in
simple manner by storing them in
air-slaked lime at the rate of one part
of the lime to two parts of peas by
weight. Liquid carbon bisulphide will
keep the seed if it be dipped for
few minutes in it, but the full benefit
of the liquid seems to depend upon the
percentage of moisture in the seed at
the time of dipping.

coNvIcTs ON PUBLIC WORKS
Proportion on Road Improvement In
creased From 1.3 Nearly to 13
]. Per Cent Since 1885.

The proportion Of cOnvicts employed
on public works instead Of on lease or
contract has increased since 1885 from
33 to So per cent and the proportion
on road work alone from 1.3 to nearly
10 per cent, according to report by
the federal public roads Office based
on a survey of many prisons. State

vict labor on roads is recommended.

MOISTURE FOR ROAD MAKING
There Is Certain Water Content at
Which Soil Packs Hard-Remove
All Grass and Weeds.

Road making is largely a matter of
moisture control. When soil contains
too much water it becomes mud, and
when it has too little moisture it be-
comes dust. But there is certain
moisture content at which soil packs
hard. And this is just about the
amount of moisture that soil will
hold readily. This usually can be
maintained in road that has good

where OILED HIGHWAYS PAY
SoiIs-oiI Sometimes More Sat-
isfactory Than Water.

Oiled earth roads should not be re-
garded as a permanent improvement
but are much better than common
earth roads, in the opinion Of w. s..
Gearhart, professor of highway engi-
neering.
"Oiled roads do not require so much
dragging as ordinary earth roads,"
said Professor Gearhart. 'They shed
water better and do not become SO
dusty. Although oiled roads are not
SO satisfactory as gravel roads, they
may be help in developing good
roads sentiment"
The best results from oiling are to
be obtained by applying the oil when

worlds greatest battles.
Dispose Of Surplus Males.
Every farmer can raise more and
better poultry and do it far more
profitably by disposing of all surplus
males, by keeping only the yearling
hens, and the earliest and best-ma-
tured pullets, thus keeping no dead
heads or "slackers" to consume what
should go to profitable producers. 1t
Is crime to dispose of laying hen
or pullet that is just about to lay.
Keep the hen house neat and clean.
Repair the roof, the windows, and stop
any direct drafts that are possible by
knot holes or cracks. Too much glass
and not enough open front is bad.
