BLIND MAN POULTRY FANClER
Work, Despite Handicap Wrich
Would Seem lnsurmountable.

Blind Edward Jones of Jefferson
City, Mo-. has made a record in keep
ing poultry which many who have
eyes have not equaled. Moving among
his birds, which seem to understand
how he is handicapped, and guided
only by his sense of touch, he per-
forms his daily work. He has built
his own poultry house and brood
coops, and has Matched and raised all
his chicks. Blindness does not pre-
vent him from culling his flock. The
birds not intended to be kept are mar
keted as br0ilers, and the others are
kept for the production of winter
eggs.
Mr.. Jones attended every poultry
meeting held in his section last fall.
He is now trying to organize poultry
club for blind people, and the home
demonstration agent in the county
has volunteered to read to the mem
bers the publications on poultry sent
from the United States department Of
agriculture.

ALLIES RECOGNIZE
RUSSIAN ANT|-REOS
REGIMES OF koLcHAk AND DEN.
EkINE FAVORED BY THE
COUNCIL OF FOUR.
Mo Armed Forces, But Materials of
War, Money and Food Will be
Freely Supplied in Eudeavor to
Defeat Bolsheviki.

Paris.-The council of four of the
peace conference has decided condi-
tionally to recognize the antl-Bolshe-
Wiki governments of Admiral Kolchak
ana General Denekine, according to
Reuters agency here.
The conditions for the recognition
are that, regarding the future of Russia
these governments agree to convoke
AMI accept the verdict of a genuine
constituent assembly, likewise the
ieague OF nations covenant and its
consequences as affecting the boundar-
les of the former empire are accepted.
The constituent assembly is to deter
mine the future form of government
for Russia.
The policy adopted, 1t is added, will
enable the allies to recognize and as
sist any force in Russia cooperating
in the struggle against soviet rule be-
cause such recognition will be in force
only until such time as the constituent
assembly decides upon the permanent
form of government. The regional
governments will then expire auto
matically.
The allies will not furnish Admiral
Kolchak and General Denekine with
troops, but will supply them with
arms, munitions, money and food on
larger scale than hitherto. 1t is
stipulated that there will be no inter-
ference with the races of non-Russian
states recently erected from old Rus
sian territory.
Admiral Kolchak head of the all
Russian government, has returned to
Omsk from IA visit to Ekaterinburg,
where he presided at conference of
manufacturers, peasants and industrial
organizations in the Ural district. He
gave them assurance that the govern
ment would help in the rehabilitation
of industries and in the building up Of
transportation facilities.

Warblers All Kinds.

Not taking into account the human
beings who are sometimes referred to
as warblers, you will find on looking
into the bird book that there are many
kinds of warblers ranging alphabet
ically all the way from bay-breasted
warblers to yellow-rumped warblers,
says the American Forestry associa-
ton, Washington, which is conduct
ing the national bird-house building
contest. If you had a collection of
them all together they would take in
about all the colors of the rainbow,
yellow, orange, chestnut. black, white,
green, gray, brown and other colors
with numerous shades entering into
their beautiful plumage.

Il You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits. as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DIR.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralzes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.

Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address

Washington. = Secretary Baker an
nounces that the war department
again will ask congress for appropri'
atoms for an army of 100000 men fol

thought that an army of 100000 men

The secretary also announced that
the war department was in thorough
sympathy with rebuilding the national

budget estimates must be regarded
as infieXible. A budget is not a

any time. But however much bud
gets may vary in detail they are all
alike in principle-in the same divi-
sions into general classes, and the
same proportion of expense for the
same items.
For budget beginners it is wise to
make only a rough estimate of ex-
penses and income for the year. Then
keep a careful and exact account Of
all expenses for one month, The to-
tails for the month in each class and
subdivision will serve as excellent in

Sewnty-five million American citi-
zens made two New Year resolutions
the same two!
They were:
]. To get more value and more pleas
ure out of life in 1919 than in 1913.
q To cut expenses and save more
money.
The majority Of 1918 incomes remain
the same as in 1918. All living costs
are higher.
Can any man, woman or family keep
both New Year -resolutions-get more
out OF life and save more money at
the same time?
HE CAN! SHE CAN! IT CAN!
To the universal "HOw?' the an
swer is-adopt the household budget
system.
A budget system Is a simple but
scientific plan of adjusting the total
yearly income to the total yearly ex-
pense so as to make II come out
even"-avoid debt and waste, and
even leave q balance for savings.
Ordinary expense accounts only
show WHERE THE MONEY HAS
BEEN SPENT. A budget system
PLANS the expenditures in IN AD-
VANCE-aloting so much to each di-
vision of personal or household ex-
pense. Its purpose is to serve as daily
guide and guard in keeping spending
within the limits of income.
To make a budget, personal or
family, simply set down the actual
or estimated total yearly income.
Opposite the income list an esti-
mate of the total expenses. Di-
vide the income among the known
expenses according to the funda-
mental principles to be explained
here.
All Incomes. of wstever size, are
divided into four classes of expendi-
lures to maintain life and health.
Every person or family must spend
money for food. clothing. shelter
and running expenses. For incomes
large enough to provide more than
the necessities of life a fifth class of
expenditures is added. Its items are
classified as for advancement or
higher life"
Suppose the family income for five
persons-two adults and three chill
The Washington herald., 1919-01-01

dren-is LOO year, or 500 month.
It must be divided in four equal parts
for expenses. But the four parts will
not be equal Experience and ex-
periments with thousands of families
Of this type have proved to economic
experts that the biggest item of ex-
pense in such families is food. 1t
is estimated that family of five will
spend $50 each month for food alone.
Shelter (house rent, or taxes and in
terest on property will cost. on the
average, sS. Clothing is estimated at
81. Housekeeping or running ex-
penses average IS each month. This
division absorbs the whole income. If
there IS a ffth division for higher
life-it must come from economies on
other items. preferably from clothing
and running expenses.
Food, as the item most essential
to life and health should be the last
on which to practice economy. Food
administration experts estimate that
to obtain the best balanced and
most nourishing diet every $40
spent for food should be divided as
follows: For bread and cereals,
s2.50; for meat, eggs. and fish. 81;
for fruit and vegetables, 81; for
milk. So; for fats. sweets, season.
ings, etc. 1.5o-total $40.
A food expense rule that is even
simpler and applies to incomes OF
all sizes is that the money spent for
meat for fruit and vegetables, and
for dairy products should remain
practically equal in amount.

budget for the average family OF
five was divided thus: one-third for
