GAVE GOOD REASONS

The president refused to sign the
bill because it included the enforce
ment of wartime prohibition.
The objects of wartime prohibition,
the president said in his veto, had
been satisfied. and "sound public
policy makes clear the reason and
necessity for its repeal"
1t would not be difficult. the presi-
dent held, for Congress to deal sepa-
rately with the two issues.

SENATE LIKELY TO ALSO PASS
THE MEASURE
Temporarily nonplused by the pres
ident's veto of the prohibition en-
forcement bill, but later encouraged
by the unexpected action of the House
last night, in passing the measure
over the presidents veto, dry leaders
in Congress are working today to
obtain the necessary two-thirds vote
in the Senate. Dry leaders in the Sen
ate were hopeful of calling the matter
up today.
WILSON'S CONSTRUCTION OF
THE LAW
Wartime prohibition will be brought
to an end by presidential proclama-
ton Immediately after the Senate
ratifies the German peace treaty, it
was said at the White House today.
Officials explained the wartime act
provided that it be annuled by Presi-
dent Wilson when peace was declared
and the army and navy demobilized
The White House announcement
clears up any doubt whether the war
will be legally ended with ratification
OF the German treaty. Some officials
had expressed an opinion that the
war emergency would not pass until
the Austrian treaty had been acted
upon by the Senate.
ADJOURNED TO MEET ALBERT
An effort to have the Senate act or
the motion to repass the prohibition
enforcement bill over the PRESIDENT
veto was made soon afteh Senate con,
vened today. Several democrats OBJ.
jected and a long parliamentary
wrangle over the rules ensued. The

Senate recessed to receive King Al

PRACTICAL POULTRY PRIMER

An illustrated publication, Farmers'
Bulletin 1O4O, recently issued by the
u. S. Department of Agriculture, is
now available, which deals with the
Fundamentals underlying the produc-
ton of poultry. By use of many APP
propriate pictures the principles Of
poultry keeping are impressed on the
reader.

the classes to which they belong, and
their economical usefulness. In like
manner other essential phases of poul-
try keeping are illustrated and discus
sed.

are given to other publications issued
by the Department which give moro

purposes where this feeding conbina-
ton is used, but in cases where milk
is used in the ration it is not advisable
to supply any additional water.
Feed Light Rations at First
When the birds are first confined for
fattening purposes they should be fed
lightly for two or three days, after
which they may be furnished all that
they will clean up in 80 minutes, two
or three times day. Their heaviest
meal for the day should always be the
last one. Comprehensive experiments
by the United States Department of
Agriculture show that it takes 81
pounds of grain to produce / pound
of gain on fattening poultry. Usually
it costs considerably more to fatten
mature hens than it does to flesh up
cockereis and younger stock. Accord

ing to the experience of the Depart
ment specialists, the general purpose
birds are the most desirable for fatten-
ing purposes.
As rule the fattening period usual
ly lasts for from to II days, during
which time tie fowls are confined in
coops. The younger or smaller birds
give good results when they are fed
for the longer ps'lod. What has been
said in the foregoing paragraphs ap-
plies with equal force to fattening all
poultry.
The accompanying illustration shows
a practical homemade fattening bat
terry in which the moist rations may
be fed in troughs, so that the birds
can eat cafeteria fashion.

Making Gas From Wood.

Experiments on wood as part substi-
tute for coal in gas making have been
carried out in France. The wood used
was sea pine in the form Of billets cut
from the middle of the trunk. The
charge of the wood was about half the
weight of that of coal. and carboniza-
tion occupied half the usual time.
When running one retort with wood to
every two with coal. no appreciable
difference In the calorific power Of the
gas was noted. OF the two by-products
small coke and tar-the former
amounted to 5 to 10 per cent.

more room for the pullets which are to
be raised to maturity. Furthermo II,
as general proposition, the earlier
the cockerels are marketed, after they
reach suitable size, the higher are the
prices they will bring, other conditions
being equal, while, on the other hand,
the longer the cockerels are KEEP. Il.
the flock the smaller will be the net
profit they will yield when finally sold.

best grown cocaerels in his flock Tor

| it may also pay Linn to hold back and
grow to larger SIZE such birds rs he
desires to use for the family table.
The common practice to be re.ora-
ed is to sell the cockerels as soon as
mended is to sell the cockerels as soon
as they attain marketable size. in
sections where special and fancy mar
kets are available, cockerels Of the
lighter breeds, such as the Leghorn,
may be sold as SQUAD broilers when
weighing from three-quarters of
pound to one pound apiece. On the
more general markets, where frying
chickens are desired and with the
larger breeds especially, the cock
erels may be fattened to weigh from
one and one-half to two and one-half
pounds apiece before being sold.
Coventry for Cockerels
The cockerels which are retained for
breeding purposes should be kept apart
| from the rest of the flock. In the case
of the male birds designed for market
! it is often possible and practicable to
fatten them for a few days before sell
ling them. This extra attention gets the
birds into the best condition, and even
means the difference between mar
ketinr them with the fancy trade
which is willing to pay premium prices
and selling to consumers who desire
goods of mediocre quality because
they are cheap.
The following rations may be fed
proftably to cockerels which are con-
fined and cooped in order to be fat
tened for market:
The first ration consists OF mix
ture of parts by weight OF corn meal
and A parts of low-grade wheat flour
or middlings; the second ration is l
part by weight of shorts or middlings,
2 parts of low-grade wheat flour, and
3 parts of corn meal; while the third
feeding mixture is composed Of equal
parts by weight of corn meal, wheat
flour or middlings and oat flour.
With each or all of these grain mix
lures either whole milk or skim milk
! should be fed, in amount sufficient to
/ hiring the mixture to the consistency
of porridge, SO that it will drop from
the end of spoon. If no milk is avail
able the farmer should add 10 per
cent of chopped vegetables and 8 per
cent of meat meal to the above ratlons.
IF water is used for mixing the feed,
enough should be used to make crum-
bly. moist mixture. Water may also
be given to the fowls for drinking

be urged upon Congress by the Ameri-
can Oriental Society, which has just
closed its annual session at the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania.
President Wilson and Secretary of

The Orientalists feel this country s
trade in the Far East suffers because of
the lack of knowledge in this country
OF Oriental languages.
Although unable to be present at the
symposium, William Phillips, assistant
secretary of state, sent n statement to
the society expressing his hearty ap-
proval of the plan.
THE lack of knowledge of Oriental
languages on the part of Americans is
not merely simple and negative hand

ARKANSAS BANKS ON
HER COUNTY AGENTS

That the business men and bankers
of Arkansas believe that the presence
of the county agent promotes general
prosperity is shown by the way they
get behind and push tn extension
work among the farmers. For this
years work Cd out of rs counties
raised $161 900, according to reports
received by the States Relation Ser
vice of the United States Department
of Agriculture. This is exclusive of
State and Federal aid.
This amount was contributed from
the county funds. All appropriations
are made by the quorum courts, which
are composed of the justices of the
peace of each county. On their meet
ing day the bankers and business
men meet with them and urge liberal
appropriation for extension work,
arguing that any work that helps the
farmers and their wives increases
general prosperity The sum of $780,
480 was appropriated for man county
agents and $53,260 for woman de-
amoung the white popu-
lation. For negro agents and home
demonstrators 1920 was approp-
rated
This is believed to be a remark
able record for any state.
