embroidery plays an important part.

ARTIFICIAL ILLUMINATION
BY HARRY n. LEWIS.

Experiments and the results OBJ
tanned by practical feeders during the
past two years have proved beyond
question that artificial illumination
pays. We have great deal to learn
yet regarding its limitations. but 1t
can be safely said that any flock Of
pullets or hens housed in the fall can
be made to pay q much greater profit
with no injurious effect II artificial
illumination is used from the first OF
September until the first Of April. 1t
must be remembered that the object
Of illumination Is to shorten the long
nights OF fall and winter. 1t is sug-
gested Tor New Jersey conditions tha'
morning lights will probably prove
the most desirable and they can
safely be started somewhere about A
o'clock in the morning. The use of
morning lights does not require dim
ming, it gets the birds into an active
condition at the coolest part Of the
night, and at the time when all AMI
mails are at their lowest period of
vitality. Some may prefer to run
the lights for awhile in the morning
and awhile in the evening, in which
4 80 in the morning and keep them on
until daylight, and from dusk until
1880 in TIE evening. II electric lights
are used 1t is a simple matter to have
the lights turned on automatically at
or 4 o'clock in the morning, the grain
feed being given in the litter after
the birds have gone to perch the night
before, and some type of artificial
water heating appliance being used
to furnish an adequate supply of water
1t must be remembered that the use
Of artificial illumination will accom-
plish no benefits and possible harm If
| It is not operated regularly and II the
birds are not provided with an aoun-
| dance of feed and drinking water dur
ing the hours in which the lights are
operated. Electric lights are probably
the most desirable, but where they are
not available there are a number OF
excellent types of lanterns which car
be purchased very reasonably. Like
wise barn lanterns with strong refiec'
tors or with specially prepared lenses
give excellent results. Don't star
lights unless you are willing to give
them a fair chance, that is, great reg
ularity in the time they are operated
and special care OF the birds durint
the time thew are under lights. II
that is done one can expect an In
crease of nearly double the production
in eggs, which means, expressed II
dollars and cents, 400 per cent IN
crease in net returns over the coss o.
feed and lights. Results from the u.s.
of artificial illumination show beyon'
a doubt that it is a practice which
must be and will be generally adopted
on all commercial poultry farms. 1t !

The Girl Problem.

Fannie Ward, whose girlish spirit and appearance gives such an endur- ing charm of Common Clay" is proud of a collection of 5000 letters which she received from admirers in all parts of the United States and all parts of Canada. The natural supposition is that this correspondence comprises the fervid sentiment of admiring males; but Miss Ward prizes it most highly because it is not-the letters were written by girls of ages ranging from fifteen to twenty. No other woman on the stage or screen has ever depicted girlhood with such f. delity and charm, and in Common Clay" A. H. Woods screen rendition of the Harvard prize play by Gloves kinkead, Miss Ward achieves a char acterization that must add enormously to her artistic reputation.
 Ellen Neal, the working girl heroine in the initial production of the stage play gave Jane Cowl one of the big opportunities of her career. To Miss Ward. acting for the screen, it offered an opportunity greater still: for while the stage story has it's technical lim- itations, the screen offers a breadth of treatment of action and detail which gives fuller and appealing reality to to the story. The play has been shown in every city of 10000 and up- ward and the photodrama will have even better popularity, because of it's vivid amDlifcation and because the story itself is one of vital realism, con- cerning the Girl Problem, and the ter ribie stress of life in a great city.

 Perhaps doesn't think that his elders Well, that's the way God grows man. If 1t could be done better (you know

 To grow a man with a will that is
