A DRESSED-UP CHICK.
A Missouri Bird Enjoys Artificial
Covering.

What is conceded to be the funni-
est looking object ever seen in Mis-
souri, is a chicken attired in pants,
coat and cap. running about the
poultry flock of Mrs L F Bolton.
1t was during the first cold spell
some time ago that Mrs Belton no.
ticeG the chick. which had practical
ly no feathers at all, shivering in
the chilly wind. She knew that the
chicken could not long endure the
cold and decided that its life was
worth saving: so she took it into
the house and proceeded to dress
it up.
She made for it a pair of pants
with a bib, which covered its feath-
erless breast; g coat for its bare
back, and a cap for its bald head.
After sewing these garments secure
ly onto the chicken she turned it
loose.
1t passed the first day in vainly
trying to step out of its new trous-
ers, but it soon grew accustomed to
them, and became the liveliest bird
in the flock.
1t is now almost feathered out
and. as Mrs Belton says, will have
to be undressed before it can ever
be dressed.

N C, has been given a contract to
secure the planting of 10000 acres
to castor beans, and the farmers OF
South Carolina and Georgia are ex-
pected to grow anywhere from five

The government is goingto furnish
the seed at exact cost 70 the govern

but they are not to be paid for until
after the crop is grown, and from

lied to pay to any farmer who will
grow these beans So per bushel for
his entire crop, delivered at the near

Those who have grown castor
beans say that it is one of the easiest
crops produced. There is no insect
pest which is known to attack 1t.
Animals and live stock will not eat it..
A hushel consists of 46 pounds and
the price paid will be better than SIC

Any farmers desiring to secure
seed and grow this crop under con-
tract in South Carolina or Georgia

patriotic duty to grow these beans.

Washington, January l5:-A new
emergency has arisen. The United
States government will require large
quantities of castor oil for lubricat-
ing aeroplane engines. The supply is
short. and South Carolina, Georgia
and Florida are going to be called
upon to grow castor beans for the
government, and for which the gov
ernment will pay prices which they
believe will make it more profitable
crop than any otker staple grown in
that section.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars
have been spent in conducting ex
periments for finding an oil for lu-
bricating the Liberty motors,
which will be used in flying ma
chimes, other than castor oil; but
these experiments have been in vain
and the only oil that will flow under
the atmospheric conditions met with
by these machines is castor oil.
In this country years ago castor
oil was grown quite extensively and
the leading States were Kansas, Ok
lahoma ard Missouri; but India, with
labor which could be hired at 10
and 20 cents a day, furnished this
oil so cheaply that the industry prac-
tically died out. The submarine has
taken toll and greatly reduced the
worlds shipping facilities. and now
the industry must be revived, and in
those sections where there is no dan
ger of frost and in the sections where
they have long growing seasons, and
South Carolina, Georgia and Florida
are expected to meet the emergency.
