STAY AT HOME.

This rs one time In our experience
when the call OF patriotism should
persuade US to stay at home fran
our usual summer Iunkcts. II Is
proper and right that tho business
man and his family should find
some way OF relieving the monoto-
nous strain Of everyday NE. but
every observing person will agree
with us that the question Of com.
fort and recreation has very little

what tho Boys Arc Singing.

About $1,000 popular song writer's
in this country are discouraged. The
boys in tho army don't seem to sing
their songs The boys don't caro- for
thu sentimental hogwash. but get up
songs OF their own. Here Is one OF
the most popular. as we heard A
company singing It at Yaphank the
other day: IT
"Oh, they rF7t me In the army ard
they handed me a pack;
They took away my nice new clothes
and dolled me up In kack;
They marched me twenty miles day
10 1T nae for the war:
didn't mind the first nineteen, but
the last ono made me sore.
Chorus:
"Oh. us not the pack that you carry
on your back,
Nor the Springfield ON your
shoulder,
Nor the five-inch crust OF country
dust
That makes you feel your limbs
grow older.
And It's not the hike on the hard
turnpike
That wipes away your smile.
Nor tho socks OF sisters
That raise the bloomin' hllsters-
lTs that last long mile"

good foragcr. AZ general rule. It
Is the last OF the roost in the morn
ing and the first to go to roost at
night. In the case OF a male. the
| head, dull eyes. pale comb and wattlcs,
and is undeveloped. Perhaps he has
| sprawly legs, which are cold to the
touch, and long. slender body, with
very little breast development, and
| long. thin toes Tho reverse Is true
OF the strong male.
Points of Excellence.
II the selection OF the breeding male
| is based on tho points described be-
| low. there will be little danger OF
healing the flock with a weak indi-
| vidual.
The head should be medium to large,
short ard broad.
| Comb and wattles should be medium
TO large and bright red IN color.
| The eyes should stand out promi-
! ncntly. and be round. bright and clear.
The tail should show q full develop
mcnt OF feathers and be carried erect,
not dropping.
| The breast should be round and full
and the keel bone we'll covered with
meat
characteristic OF tho variety. strong
and warm 10 the touch.
The plumage should be full. glossy
and OF the proper color marking for
the variety.
| Tho crop should be large and well
filled when the bird goes TO roost.
II possible. the ability OF the male to
transmit high production to his dauEh-
tcrs should be known. This. Of course.
is only possible where pedigree breed
ing Is followed. Breeding experiments
have long since established the fact
| that high production is transmitted
| through the male. That is. high fe-
cundity may bc inherited by- daughters
| from their sire. independent of the
dam. a male with the ability 10 pro-
ducc daughters Of high fccundlty. will
begct the same proportion of heavy
layers regardless OF whether he be
mated with dams OF high or low
fccundity.
! As high egg production is the SUI
prcine object Of breeding. the beginner
who has no way OF determining the
ability OF his birds to beget high pro
! ducing. pullets. should purchase his
male from some reliable breeder who
| has kept careful records and who
know the blood lines back OF his stock.
While such birds are more expensive.
then ordinary breeding stock, they
VIII more than pay for themselves In
the increased production of their
daughters.
Number of Males Required.
The number OF hens that should bs
allowed to each male depends to a
