ter layers.
\ ii. Where is the best place to
keen hens and raise chicks?
Full grown hens do well under
most conditions. Chicks need wider
range and better care than can be
given in the back yard or small lot
There is no place like the good farm
to raise nice chicks and get the full
egg basket The time is coming
when most of our chicks will be
grown on the farm, the town poultry
owner buying his pullets in the fall
from the country producer. The farm
flock. a small side issue at first, may
in time become the main source OF
income on some farms. 1t is far SAT
err to combine, at first, few pigs
and cows with the poultry venture.
u. What are the markets tor eggs
and poultry?
The very best market has, been al
most overlooked, and that is the
'home table THE poultry owner
should first supply his family needs
and then help out the local and state
markets. Next to the home market
comes the demand for fresh eggs fol
the winter tourists, Lastly is the
call for poultry products from few

/ 20 What general methods are
: practiced in raising chicks?
: Chicks are raised every way-good
and bad Too many chicks are lost
because of lack OF care. The best
method is where they are given the
range of garden or truck patch, with
access to plenty of green feed, good
shade of trees at all times, and
J housed where filth and insects are
absent. Where the, range is that OF
the pecan or citrus grove, little ami
NAL feed need be given. A box 81
. meat scrap within reach will make
$ sure the feeding of an abundance d
] animal food. Chicks will eat little
meat so long as the supply of bugs
holds out Yarded chicks need con
\ hstant feeding of meat or fish scrap
or milk in some form. Many chick

On the whole this has been an eX-

The Parent-Teacher's Associa-

Tuesday evening at the Court
House.
The great need of a better
equipped library for the training
school was the basis for the pro-
gram.
Miss Haupt talked on The
Need of a Good Library For the
Young People"
Miss Lunn discussed THE Ma
terial that Should Be Found In a
School Library
Miss Bordelon told How to
Care For the Books In Library"
All three of these talks were
very interesting, and were follow
ed by a general discussion on the
ways and means of supplying a
library for our training school.
1t was decided that several parties
or entertainments consisting Of
plays and garscs be given on
Halloween for the children and
young people of Natchitoches.
The children will be divided into
groups according to their ages so
that each child will fit in and be a
part of the play or game, that IS
going on at the party, to which he
is assigned.
A small price of admission will
be charged each person who at
tends, and the proceeds will go to-
wards buying books for the train
ing school library to be used by
these very same boys and girls.
The places where these parties
will be held and the time of meet
ing will be announced later. The
Association asks that the hearty
cooperation Of all the people of
Natchitoches be with it ia these
