WHY HATCH EARLY.

Qrepared by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.J
Chickens hatched carly iYi the.
spring are large in the sumlner,
mature early in the fall, anG lay
eggs in the winter. They will
sit early The following spring,
produce earlier chickens and
the process will be repeated by
the offspring.
But the chickens Eatched late
in the spring will not mature un-
til late in the fail--so late that
they VII not lay in the winter.
They Will not sit until late in
the following spring-and again
the process will be repeated.
The jury finds that the argu-

efficient organization for the relief of suffering that the
world has ever seen

the higher executives being without exception men
cusemed to large affairs who are in almost all cases
giving their services without pay.
1t is supported entirely by its membership fees and
by voluntary contributions.
1t is today bringing relief to suffering humanity,
both military and civil every war torn allied country
1t plans tomorrow to help in the work of restora-
ton throughout the world.

Across the Seas They Call

Across the seas from every war-tom nation in the Allied
cause there comes the call for Red Cross help.
1t comes from soldiers who have grimly faced the geam-
ing bayonet steel and poison gas and screaming Shells and
who now lie with parchmg throas and throbbng wounds.
1t from soldiers sick with fever pneumonia, tuber-
cuos
1t from soldiers crippled muilated, blinded, who
longer fight and must be taught and trained for useful
occupations
1t comes from the undered, shiverng helpless prisoners
in the German prison camps
1t from little Children orphaned homeless slowly
starving day by day, by tens and tens Of thousands
1t comes from mothers in the piaged zones of war whose
hearts and souls have been made numb with horror
From all these millions Of suffering human beings there
the the call for hephe that because of
the ghtul burdens placed upon Allies cannot be given
Another hundred million is needed to carry on"

WIFE AS MANAGER
Something for Which Too Few
 Hubbies Give Her Credit.
But Really, When You Look at the Matter Closely, the Proper Con- duetng of Home Requires
 Some Thought.

Many business man goes home in the evening, removes his coat, sinks Into an easy chair and breathes deep sigh of relief. When asked why his brow Is furr0wed he responds that he has had terrible day. Perhaps he had letters to dictate. He had to con fer with his associates and he had to talk to some customers. He spent m hour or more at lunch and he quit about five o'clock. He had q busy day and when home Is reached he feels that he Is entitled to some rest and quiet
 Such man rarely thinks of his wife as manager, remarks the Indianapolis News. He does not recall that she may have been up before him. He for gets that she planned the hreakfast- and, In many instances. cooked 1t as we'll After breakfast is finished there are dishes to be washed and the kitch- en must he put to rights Perhaps that is il general cleaning day for the whole house. and there always is dust to chase us well as dirt to sweep out or
 
 The beds have to he made and score of other household duties need atten- ton. If there are children they de- mand this, that and the other If there is q little baby in the house It must be bathed and put to sleep for its morn Ing nap. Then there is Il noon meal to get, as well as various other little fr0 YI.yo e ernoon will be spent in many ways. A great many women spend it in work. They order groceries and they order meat. They buy the household sup piles, and the good housekeeper keeps an accurate account of her expendl- lures. Toward evening she has to plan the dinner and when the children come home she must look after them. Later. she has the job of putting them to bed. Meanwhile she has had time, very like ly, to read fl magazine to knit a little for some soldier or to play the piano. She may have found time to go shop ping or to make n few calls. She makes no particular complaint about the routine she has gone through because she does il every day.
 Thousands of women show more ex- ecutixe ability in running their own homes than their husbands show in running their business. Yet there are many husbands who do not give their wives credit for having any business sense. Some of them who say that women belong Tn the home never real ize what Il home Is. One of these ex- eeutise experts would be at a loss in great many cases If he undertook the Job of running his own house for a l period of 24 hours.

front of him. He was going home boldly enough and recklessly enough, but he was by no means disposed to walk deliberately into trap. He kept his eye peeled, as he would have ex- pressed 1t. Also he left Rattler just under the crest of the ridge. took off his spurs and with his rifle in his hands went forward afoot, as he had done every time he had approached his cabin since the day he found the cor ral and the cattle in the canyon.
 In this wise he looked down the steep slope with the sun throwing the shad- ow of his head and shoulders before him The cabin window blinked cheer fully in the sunlight. His span of mares were coming up from the mead ow-ln the faint hope of getting q breakfast of oats. perhaps. The place looked peaceful enough and cozily de sirable to man who has slept out for four nights late in the fall, but glance was all Ward gave to it.
 His eyes searched the bluff below him and upon either side. Of sudden they sharpened. He brought his rife for ward with an involuntary motion of the arms. He stood so for breath or two, looking down the hill. Then he went forward stealthily on his toes; swiftly. too, so that presently he was close enough to see the carbuncle scar on the neck of the man crouehed be hind rock and watching the cabin as a cat watches mouse hole. A rifle lay across the rock before the man. the muzzle pointing downward At that distance and from a dead rest 1t would be strange if he should miss any object he shot at. He had what gamblers call cinch, or he would have had If the man he watched for hSd not been standing directly behind him with rifle sights in line with the scar on the back of his thick neck.
 Throw up your handsr' Ward called sharply when his first flare of rage had cooled to steady purpose.
 Buck Olney jumped as though vel low jacket had stung him. He turned startled face over his shoulder and jerked the rifle up from the rock. Ward raised his sights a little and plugged q round. black trimmed hole through Bucks hat crown.
 'sThrow up your hands, I told you" he said. while the hills opposite were still fiinging back the sound of the shot, and came closer
 Buck grunted an oath, dropped the rife so suddenly that it clattered on the rock and lifted his hands high in the quiet sunlight.
 Get up from there and go on down to the shack-and keep your hands up And remember all the reasons I've got for wanting to see you make crooked move so I'll have an excuse to shoot. Ward came still closer as he spoke He was wishing he had brought his rope along He did not feel quite easy in his mind while Buck Olney's hands were free.

Saved Shipmate's Life.

Few reports of herosm made to the navy department are more remarkable than that concerning James Marico ship cook. first class, who will prob ably receive gold life-saving medal. in addition to the letter of commenda- ton sent him by the secretary of the navy. In the midst of terrific gale Chief Quartermaster Eddker H. Rob ertson, |. s. N, was washed overheard from the |. s. s. Smith, while at tempting to clear Il jam in the steering gear. Exhausted by the cold and rough sea, Robertson could no longer help himself, when Marcio, tying a line to his waist. jumped into the water Catching the quartermaster, he clung to the half drowned man until the two were hauled aboard. Not only was the net of Marcios one of great heroism, but the test of his courage was shown in the chance he took with such a rough sea. The gale at the time was one of the worst In years and the ship was rolling at fifty-fve degrees. This young hero enlisted in the navy in April, 1914, at Philadelphia.

MORE CHICKENS ARE WANTED
Farmers Are Urged by Department of Agriculture to Stock Their Farms
 With More Poultry.

Grom the URited States Department of
 Agrteufture1
 The United States department of az riculture urges IS many as possible of the farmers who have not raised chick ems to stock their farms this year with fowls enough at least to supply the needs of their own households. This will be big factor in the nationwide campaign which will endeavor to dou- ble this year the chicken and egg pro- duction of the United States. Accord ing to the last census, of the 6.371 ,502 farms in the United States, 1,527, ,743 reported no egg production. The more- chicken-and m0re-egg campaign Is ex- pected to displace millions of pounds of beef and pork in American menus and send the released product across the ocean to our soldiers, the allies, and the hungry people of the lands devastated by the Prussan war torch.
 The department does not advise that the general farmer embark in exten- sive raising of poultry, but warns against such ventures. But 1t sees no reason why every farm should not produce enough chickens and eggs for It's own use. and why there should not be enough surplus 10 make chickens and eggs available to the general pub lic at reasonable prices and i'll such quantities that there will be markedly less domestic demand for the meats that are needed abroad and that can be transported there

Sour Milk by Violet Rays.

It has always been commonly be lieved that milk curdles owing to the change of temperature and that by using ice this difficulty would be over come, according to Dr. Humbert Bug zoni in the Electrical Experimenter but this precaution does not take away the primal cause. While germs in milk remain latent under the unfavor- able environment of perhaps zero de gree they develop immediately upon being brought in contact with light and more productive environment.
 The moment ultra violet rays come In contact with the infinltesimal life development begins, and while 1t is true that some microbes are destroyed by the utra violet rays. 1t has been found that the inferior organisms gen erally develop more rapidly under the influence of these rays.

TIMES AND PLACE FOR SLEEP
But the cozy Bed Affords Most Delightful Pastime.

There are lots of people who say they don't sleep well at night. But there are many who regularly go to sleep in the street car Of course those who go to sleep in church are not counted. That might be construed as libel, observes the Milwaukee News.
 But why do perfectly healthy folks want to sleep in street cars? Is it a protest against the. wistful-eyed strap hanger who gazes at their large and apathetic laps? Is 1t mere whim, de- siring to shut out the events of the day and snatch quiet moment of dreaming as n respite?
 IL is often mere pie, just rampant indigestion. It is also the bad air due to offices that devitallze the worker compelled to breathe 1t eight hours. It Is also due to the terrible habit of shutting all available car windows in dread of that fresh air which is the best friend worklngman has.
 Going to sleep is a delightful pas time-at night, in bed with the proper accompaniment of pillows and para phernalia. It is exotic in the daytime, save as a mere relaxation for few minutes after luncheon. which Is a good habit, ard seldom, therefore, fol lowed.

corrals and see also the creek trail for a good quarter of mile. The little valley lay quiet. His team fed undis- turbed by the creek not far from the corral, which reassured Ward more than anything. Still. he waited until he had made reasonably sure that the bluff held no watcher concealed before he went back to where Rattler waited patiently.
 "I guess they didn't plan to stir things up till they got those critters planted where they wanted them he unused while he rode down the bluff to his cabin. But when they visit that bunch of stock again I reckon things will begin to tightenr'
 He was wary of exposing himself too much to view from the bluff while he did his chores that night. and he kept Rattler in the stable; also he slept very little and before daybreak he was up and away.
