Illus, "and am Jolly glad of It."
'1Tut tut" said the cuckoo bird.
'You are getting quite cross, Master
Julius. Too little sleep. Well, well,
/ suppose must forgive you. But It's
a Shame you couldn't live In n clock for
p time."
"What do you mean?" asked Julius,
who was quite frightened now. He
felt the little cuckoo bird would hop
down and pick him right up and put
him In the clock.
"H you could live In a clock and take
my place you would have to be on time.
Six o'clock would mean six o'clock and
not half-pastl Seven-thIrty in tho
morning would not mean quarter past
eighth All no, In the clock we keep
good time. We live on the moment and
on the hours and half-hours we come
out to tell people to remember that the
time is going by and they mustn't
waste 1t for 1t is so extremely precious"
"Don't you believe in people Sleep
ing2" asked Julius.
ITO be sure, to be sure" said the
cuckoo, but I believe they should
sleep at the right time. They should
not choose another time for 1t, such as
the middle OF the afternoon, because
they sat up too late the night before"
Julius was very much ashamed. He
felt the cuckoo bird knew that he had
/. been doing all that and he wished the
cuckoo bird would go back in his little
home and shut the door. He was get
/ ting more afraid every second that he
would be taken back there. And oh
denr, how he would hate to live in n
clocki
Just suppose" said the cuckoo bird,
that 1 did things Mt the wrong time.
Suppose 1 should come out at six
o'clock and tell everyone 1t was eight :?
You can't imagine it, can you? And
why not? Because l have had the
training of clock. l have been an
assistant IN keeping the time and If
don't notice that you think more of the
time I will put you back OF the clock"
The cuckoo bird bnngcd his little door,
and julius, awaking with start, rub
bed his sleepy eyes, and said,
II shall always do things on time
from now OH for how dreadful 1t must
be to live bRck of clock and have the
hours depend so much on YOU"

ADD TO OUR MEAT SUPPLIES
Quickest and Cheapest Way Is to In
crease Poultry and Egg Produc-
tion-Eat Less Meat.

The quickest and cheapest way of
adding to our meat supplies is to in
crease poultry and egg production. To
double this production next year will
give us 0,5OO,OOO,OOO pounds of meat
food In the form of poultry and eggs.
BY having this amount of poultry food
for domestic consumption we will eat
less pork and beef, and can send al
most that many pounds of meat to Eu-
rope. We cannot increase any of the
meat animals as rapidly or economical
ly as poultry.

FEED THE BIRDS.

There is great danger during this
protracted spell of winter and snow
that the birds and other animals will
become extinct in this section unless
the. people feed them. Look after
the birds, rabbits, and other wild an
imals by scattering feed over the
places where they frequent. This
should be done at once.
