TINE CHANGES OCTOBER 27th.

il SlF
When the nat ton yaWns and takes an
extra hours sleep on October p, the
date set for ending the daylight saving
season, there is a grave danger Of caus-
ing a great waste in the clock making
industry. 5 @s III. sss
aa1 There must be no turning back the
hands of the clock, time recording ex-
perts declare in a warning to the public.
Such action would fairly shatter the
morale Of time recording and master
clocks striking the hours, and would re-
quire the services of an army Of repair
men, thus causing an unnecessary waste
of man power. .4$S
Turn the hands around eleven
hours is the advice Of the time service
department of the Western Union com
pany. BY turning the hands forward
until the time indicated is one hour less
than at the start Of the change the
same result as stopping will be had."

Get, Rid OF The Stacker Hens

Culling the Flock, Or Getting The
Slackers: Every flock should be Gull
ed. This process weeds out the slack
ers, determines the layers and finds the
profitable breeders. It results in saw
ing feed, furnishing more room, in
creasing the ration Of production, in
creasing the food supply on the one
hand, and supplying cash on the other.
When To Gull: 1t is conceded that
the most favorable time is from Sept.
Is to Nov. 1. The laying flock will
then be finishing their years work and
commencing to molt. The later they
mott, the longer has been the period
of production, generally speaking. In
the various laying contests the highest
producers have been late molters.
These have always made good record
the following year, and generally molt
quickly and resume laying. r.
How To Gull: General appearance
and habits are first observed. A large
comb for the breed, a bright prominent
eye, sturdy, active walk and alertness,
indicate the layer. The color Of the GER
tain parts gradually lose this color
as laying continues. The color goes
first from the vent, then from the eye
ring, from the ear, lobe, from the lower
part of the beak and then from the up
per mandib]e, and last Of all these parts
from the legs going down the shanks to
the heels and toes. A hen that finishes
her laying season with yellow color in
these parts is Stacker" ......
Examination of body structure is
the final test. In good layer, the pei
vic bones or s1aying bones' as they are
called, are wide apart and flexible, the
distance from these bones to the keel
or rear Of the breast bone is deep, and
the whole abdomen is soft and pliable.
When all Of these signs agree, there
can be little doubt in telling the poorest
layers in the flock. ~ D.. IS 4s Il.
Save The Best Hens For Layers. And
Breeders: Hens that are healthy, vi
gorous, active, good eaters, late mott
ers, having large red combs, pale ear
lobes, beaks, shanks and toes, that are
wide between the pelvic bones and deep
from these to keel, have good records
during tn laying year and may be de-
pended upon to make profitable re-
cord for the year to come. II.
Save All Well-Developed, Promising
Pullets: The pullets with large combs
and pelvic development should be kept
A flock of growing pullets nearly al
ways contains a considerable proper
ton of birds that are very much under
size, or in other ways poorly develop
ed. These should be culled out as soon
as they are noticed as conspicuously
backward. They will never make a
profit and the sooner they are eaten,
the less will be the loss on their ac-
count. Even when foraging is good it
does not pay to keep them. It is much
better to let the good thrifty pullets
have all the feed.

Don't Kill young 3 turkeys.

The U. s. Food Administration asks
that farmers hold young turkeys off
the market as long as possible this
fall. It has been the practice in past
years to kill the young turks early and
in this way a lot Of valuable food is
lost, as after certain point is reached
in their growth young turkeys will add
weight rapidly and will be much better
for marketing d few weeks later. :3z

It is very difficult to compare food

milk is very valuable from this stand
point. 1t is food prepared by nature

Dear Brother:
/ received your letter this evening
and was glad to hear that you were
all well. am feeling fine and am
getting a little more used to this hot
weather we are having up here. 1t Is
hotter than the hubbs Of hell.
We got our packs last night and
packed them up expecting to take q
hike but we did not have to take 1t
and / was sure glad Of it for it is too
hot to live. The pack consists OF q
tent pole, rope, half tent, blank
cts, s tent stakes, a place to carry
your grub, an extra suit Of clothes,
your toilet articles and mess kit and
besides you have to carry gun ana
gas mask and o big belt for your
ammunition.
The Big Bugs had 3 review OF the
eompany this evening and we had TO
get out and show them what we could
do. It wasn't very much; they never
said nothing but / guess It was all
right. Say, tell Della that l said Tor
her to be careful for when the war Is
over hat guy is liable to come back
from France and try to take her away
from you, and tell GOldy and sylves'
ter that l send them my best luck
too. And Pearl, ! think you are crazy
for 4 trying to farm as often as you
have had your crops to be . failure
for you were never cut out Tor q farm-

and Mrs. Ransom Pigg:

ana mEbs hnubUu IIkBs
Great Lakes Naval Station
Dear Folks at Home:
After so long a time will write
you; this sure is some place, just
about to freeze to death all the time.
We left Joplin at 9:16, got in st.
Louis at $50 the next morning, re-
ported at 900 and had to stick around
till Thursday night at 800 o'clock
when we left for this camp; arrived
here Just in time for dinner. We had
to foot most of our expenses till we
left for this camp so you see most Of
us have flat pocket books. ! still have
plenty for the present at least.
We were vaccinated in both arms
this morning; five of the boys keeled
over, didn't hurt me q bit. We are
in detention or quarantine for 21
days. We will get shot times; hope
l stand others as well.
Oh yes, we got our allotment Of
clothing today: Two suits Of heavy
under clothing and two of light, two
towels, two suits Of white and two
suits of blue, shoes, leggins, caps and
all our other stuff. Some exercise af-
ter our shots.
Was at the show last night. Some
vaudeville and some crowd, believe
me. We are not on the lakes but not
far from them. This sure is an ideal
spot of country.
/ forgot to tell you we stopped in
Chicago for our breakfast; stayed
there about 2 hours. That is sure
some town; don't like it extra well,
too many old buildings and it is just
the same in st. Louis. They sure are
big towns.
We left st. Louis at $500 o'clock at
night so you see we travelled most OF
the way after night, but when day
light came we waved and flirted with
every girl we seen, most Of US could
,hardly talk above a whisper when we
arrived.
Gee, you ought to see me in my
suit. Some fine looking Pigg. Will
send picture as soon as / can.
will have to quit and 20 snipe
hunting, as the boys call it. 1t means
picking up all matches cigarette
stubbs, papers, straws, all over camp
This sure is a clean place and that's
the way they keep it.
Well, it is chow time and ] will
close.
Now don't worry about me as ] will
get along as well as any Of the boys
We get all we can eat, good beds and
plenty of exercise.
Your loving son,
TRUE.
P. S. The crops look good about
fifty miles the other side Of st. Louis
and get better farther north.
It is cloudy and rains about half the
time. Sure cool nights and just warm
days.
How is everything on the farm
All right suppose.
Several of the boys are all ready
home sick. haven't been SO yet anG
don't think / will be as long as seen

Don't know how long we will have
to stay here but never mind, II al
