LABOR WAKING UP TO THE Ap.
vANTAoEs OF PROHIBITION.

Speaking Of the marked benefits
that have come to wage earners from
statewide prohibition, Mr.. Clint G.
Houston, editor Of the Denver Labor
Bulletin says:
"Slnce the saloons were closed the

liquor interests. now goes to the fam

aided as the poor mans club is now
known to have been his worst enemy.
l do not believe that Is per cent of
the wage-earners Of Colorado would
ever again vote to re-estnbllsh the sn-
loon. In fact, census which caused
to be made Of three building trades
unions, one each In Denver, Colorado
Springs and Pueblo, shows that when
the beer amendment was up for adop-
tion in 1915, only about per cent In
these three communities voted for II.
"If the wage-earners throughout the
nation cnn be made to realize what
drain upon their incomes Is removed
by the passing Of the saloon and how
their own self-respect and the respect
Of others is enhanced thereby, they
will not only assist In the elimination
Of the saloon from the various states
yet licensing the liquor traffic. but will
give support to the national prohibi-
ton amendment"

more attention to himself by his accu-

this applicant for a license had had

cape. BY using a coop the chicks can
find shelter and warmth under the
hen at any time. and the weakllngs
after a few days may develop into
strong. healthy chicks.
The brood coop should be cleaned
at least once a week and kept free
from mites. II mites are found in
the coop, It should be thoroughly
cleaned and sprayed with kerosene oil
or crude petroleum. From 1 to 2
inches Of sand or dry dirt or a thin
layer Of straw or fine hay should be
spread on the floor Of the coop.
Brood coops should be moved weekly
to fresh ground, preferably where
there Is new grass. Shade is very es-
sential In rearing chickens. especially
during warm weather; therefore. the
coops should be placed in the shade
whenever possible. A cornfield makes
fine range for young chickens. as ow-
ing to cultivation of the ground, they
get many bugs and worms and have
fresh soil to run on most Of the time
and enjoy abundant shade.
