subject to colds during the fall and
are likely to spread colds throughout
the entire flock. To remedy this diff
ficulty, hatch early and have the pull
let's reasonably well matured when
they are placed in winter quarters.
AS more cOckerels are produced
than are needed for breeding pur-
poses it is imperative that the surplus
stock be rapidly matured and sold as
broilers and springers at early ages.
The demand for such chickens is best
early in the season when the price is
at It's peak and, on this account. the
young males should be Matched early,
forced and fattened for these special
markets.
Hot Weather Hard On Chicks.
Severely hot weather is hard on
little chicks. Constant care and at
tention are essential to carry the
young birds through the first six
weeks without loss, particularly If the
weather is hot and oppressive during
this period. 1t is highly important
that chicks shall have passed the dan
ger point before summer is on full
force. This necessitates that the
chicks be early rather than late
Matched.
Unless pullets are Matched early,
matured and well settled In their win
ter quarters before cold weather sets
in, it is difficult to get them to lay.
Generally it takes from six and one
half to eight months for pullets Of the
general purpose breeds including the
Plymouth Rock, Rhode Island Red,
Wyandotte and Orpington varieties to
mature and start laying. Hatched
early in the season they will have
ample time to mature.
Early Matching one season will
make it easier to hatch early the fol-
lowing year. Early Matched pullets
begin to lay in the fall and winter and
by the time early spring comes will
usually have produced a considerable
number Of eggs and many of them will
show a desire to sit. If on the other
hand, the pullets are Matched late,
they do not begin to lay until late
winter or early spring and conse-
quently are not likely to be broody
when it is time to start Matching.
Early Matching leads to early laying
and early laying develops early brood
mess, completing cycle which should
be the rOundrObin aspiration of every
progressive pouitryman.

Fowls Realize Full Benefits From
Propitious and Longer
Growing Season.
FOSTERS EARLIER MATURITY
Hatch in Time for Best BroiIer Mar
kets and Also Produce Pullets
Ready to Lay When Hens
Want Needed Rest.

Fable is transforming into fact. 1t
has been customary In allegoricai
statement only to allude to the hen
that lays the golden eggs. In view of
the present prices of eggs and poultry,
it begins to look as If the age OF the
golden eggs had arrived. With mar
keting conditions for poultry products
better than ever before, with a stabil-
lied demand for quality products, and
with prospects of larger amounts OF
feeds being available as a result of
the cessation Of war, there is every
incentive for the poultryman's best eff
forts.
A fundamental factor which makes
for greater success with hens is to
hatch early The early chick catches
the worm both in the garden and in
the economies Of poultry production.
The poultryman who aspfres to beat
the calendar and to hatch several
weeks earlier than the cut-and-dried
practice gains an advantage which
permits him to market quality cock
erels at less cost and greater profit
much in advance of his associates who
are remiss In lighting their incubators
OF setting their hens Chicks thrive
and develop rapidly during the early
days of spring; the early Matched
fowls thus realize full benefits from
the propitious and longer growing sea-
son.

Weekly Health Talks
GOING BACK TO NATURE
DY DIR. w. LUCAS.

People get sick because they go
away from Nature and the only way
to get well is to go back. Something
grows out of the ground in the form
of vegetation to cure almost every i'll.
Some of these vegetable growths are
understood by man, and some are not.
Animals, it would seem, know what to
do when they are sick better than
men and women. Observers have
noted that q sick horse, dog or cat
will stop eating food and seek out
some vegetable growth in the field or
yard, which, when found and eaten,
often restores appetite and health.
Haven't you seen these animals do
this very thing yourself?
DR.. Pierce, Of Buffalo, N. Y, long since
found the herbs and roots provided by
Nature to overcome constipation, and he
had these vegetables collected and made
up of Mayapple, leaves of Aloe, root of
Jalap, into little white sugar-coated pills,
that he called DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
You must understand that when your in
testines are stopped up, poisons and de-
cayed matter are imprisoned in your sys-
tenn, and these are carried by the blood
throughout your body. Thus does your
head ache, you get dizzy. you can't sleep,
your skin may break out, your appetite de-
clines, you get tired and respondent. As
a matter of fact, you may get sick all
over. Don't you see how useless all this
suffering is? All that is often needed is
a few Of DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets,
which he has placed in all drug stores for
your convenience and health. Try them
by all means. They are probably the very
thing you need right now.

Why to Hatch Early.

The early hatch spells sure profits,
other conditions being equal, because
it fosters the earlier maturity and egg
production of the pullets; it induces
a stream of eggs at the season when
eggs are highest in price; it gives the
chicks a chance to develop into strong
healthy birds before hot weather sets
in; it provides supply Of wage earn
ing pullets to replace the old hens in
the flock as soon as the latter birds
begin to develop star-boarder charac-
teristics; it produces chicks which are
robust and rugged and better able to
withstand the attacks of lice and dis
ease; it means early cockerels for
market when the supply is scant and
the price correspondingly attractive.
Hens take three months vacation
every fall during the molting season
while they don new plumage. When
the hens are idle, the stream of eggs
ceases unless early Matched pullets
are ready to substitute for the older
fowl as producers. AS fall and
winter eggs are always in demand at
profitable prices, early Matching re-
turns rapid dividends where the pull
lets are geared up for active service
when the hens begin their rest.
Less Disease Among Robust PuIIets.
Where lice attack the flock, the
smaller, weaker chickens are first to
succumb. Lice are worse during warm
than cold weather and hence the
early Matched chicks are less exposed
to such pests while still very young.
Furthermore, immature pullets are

While there are apparently only

law, far less than half of the auto

the people Of Fort Madison and the
vicinity are equipped with 1919 IL

cording to the belief of Chief of
Police Engstrom of the Fort Madi-
son police department, and many
people are making no effort to pro-
cure the tags, despite the fact that
the time for this has long since ex-
pired.
Apparently many Fort Madison
people are willing to take a chance
in running their cars indefinitely on
the tags they procured in former
years, and are of the opinion that
no prosecution will follow such act.

determined to report every motorist

INTERNATIONAL
STRIKE FAILS
Only in One Country Has Trouble
Amounted to Anything
Bordering on Serious
Side.

United Press Leased Wire Service
PARIS, July 21.-Advices from
European countries, especially the
allied nations, indicated today that
the international strike, planned by
the proletariat as protest against
Intervention in Russia and Hungary,
had lost it's element Of danger and
in many places would be a complete
failure.
Apparently strike leaders either
had lost their control or had Needed
government warnings.
Only In one country-Norway-
were there indications that the stu
alton might prove serious. A gen.
eral strike had been called for today,
following a strike Saturday which
forced Christiania to do without
light, water, tram-car service and
newspapers. The government issued
an order closing restaurants and
ordering three days prohibition Of
the sale of alcohol.
In France the strike had been
called off officially, with its leaders
Issuing manifestos urging that every
class and profession continue work
today. kilograms from Italy, Aus
tria, Germany and Great Britain in
Dictated the movement had been
either wholly or partially
on account of the pressure Of public
opinion.
Dispatches from Rome said the
strike promised to be a complete
failure there. Railways and tram
ways were being operated under nor
NAL conditions. Reports from central
and southern Italy said those seci
lions had not been affected.
Dispatches from Germany an
nounced that as result of violent
protests from German agriculturists
and the public, the world revolution
airy idea had been weakened very
greatly, if not entirely abandoned.
Vienna reports indicated the strike
failure there was due to public SEN
timent, energetic measures taken by
the government and, finally, to the
fact that the Hungarian trades unions
had openly declared bolshevism to
be their worst enemy.
