successful in combining standard
quality with this production, so that
he can produce birds capable of win
ming in the poultry exhibitions of the
country, he has profitable outlet in
the sale of breeding stock to those
who are interested in exhibitions of
that kind. The man who breeds only
for standard quality. or a person who
produces fowl only for utility value
has restricted market outlet for his
stock which will prove much less
profitable.
The fact should not be overlooked
that the man who breeds for stand
ard requirements and therefore for
beauty in his fowl has something
which the casual observer can see and
appreciate, and develops in his birds
a quality Of advertising value in the
sale Of breeding stock On the other
hand, IL he has only egg production
to commend his stock, he must tell
the purchase about it, for there is lit
tie or nothing which the prospective
buyer can see in the birds themselves
that indicates whether or not the
strain is a good producing one.

Arsenical Dip Best and Cheapest for
Lice and Stockholm Made

The arsenicad preparation which is
now considered to be the best dip for
stock of all kinds that are infested
with lice consists of the following
materials: Ten pounds arsenous acid
(As203), 25 pounds sal soda tNa2C-
OBJ and two gallons of pine tar for
each 500 gallons of solution.
This is prepared as follows: Place
sal soda in an iron or zinc tank of
about 200 gallon capacity. Add about
100 gallons of water and bring to
boiling. This will dissolve the soda.
After the soda is thoroughly dissolv-
ed add the arsenous acid and stir
carefully until all is dissolved. The
fire should then be withdrawn and
the pine tar added slowly stirring at
the same time. 1t will now be motto
ed that the tank contains a dark
brown fluid. To TIL sufficient water
should be added to make 800 gallons
Care should be taken when cooking

Greatest Highway Building Enabled
BY u. s. Law

With full state cooperation accord
ing to the terms of the federal road
act, the United States will have to-
tai Of at least $574, 200, 900 for coop
erative road building during the next
three years. The federal part of this
fund is assured by an extra appro-
priation of $209,000,00O in the post
Office appropriation bill recently pass
ed by congress and signed by the
President.
Officials Of the bureau Of public
roads, United States department Of
agriculture, which administers the
provisions Of the federal-aid road act
and cooperates with the state gov
ernments in the expenditure of the
money, point out that this amount Of
funds is the largest ever appropriated
for similar purposes and for n SINH
lar period by any government in the
history of the world, and that it en-
ablcs the federal and state govern
ments to carry out bodybuilding
program of a magnitude never equal
ed.
In connection with the great fed
eral aid program. it is also noted that
expenditures for highway work in
the United States this year are likely
to amount to half billion dollars or
more. On reports received from the
state highway departments, the bu-
reau Of public roads estimates the
1919 expenditures for roads and
bridges at s3s5,OOO,00O, or $ll0,O0O,-
900 more than the average expendi-
tnre for lOlf and 1911

Give Sweet Potatoes More Attention

The sweet potato crop Of the South
has increased wonderfully in impor-
lance during the past two years; in
fact, it has always been one Of the
essential foods for local use. Too of
ten it has been the habit to grow the
crop in n careless manner, but care
full methods of seed selection and
planting the crop on good soil give
returns that make the extra trouble
well worth while.
II a special lot of seed was not
picked out last year and carefully
stored. now is the time to locate and
save the available. This seed should
not to be bedded until the ground is
warm or, if it is desirable to start
early plants, the seed should be
placed in a hotbed and given careful
attention until the plants are ready
to set out.
Sweet potatoes respond to the use
Of fertilizers, especially well balanc-
ed commercial fertilizers mixed with
the soil underneath the rows. Four
hundred TO 5OO pounds 10 the acre has
been found in some cases to almost
double the crop. A great deal de-
ponds upon the way the plants start
and IL they are set when the soil is in
the right condition and little water
poured in around each plant. they will
start Off promptly. The important
part is to begin now and select the
best seed available.
The demand for sweet potatoes is
increasing and new uses are being
found for them every year. They
are good human food and are worth
growing for stock feed. Recently Il
has been found that fair grade Of
strip can be made from surplus sweet
potatoes. Give your sweet potato

Show Ring Virtues Combined With
Producing Ability

Beauty and utility in happy combi-
nation, as depicted by the most prof
liable farm fowls, are attributes
which merit wider imitation among
poultry keepers. Symmetry Of form
uniformity Of characteristic and true
ness Of type, rather than superficial
skin-deep beauty, are desired in pro-
ducing profitable poultry, together
with the ability to maintain liberal
and persistent production Of eggs.
Hen husbandry has suffered be-
cause of fractional fracases between
specialized fanciers and the utility
producers who aspire chiefly for eggs,
according to specialist Of the U. s.
department of agriculture. Fanciers
have bred for show-ring attributes
with comparative disregard for pro-
ficiency in egg making, while utility
breeders have gone after egg flow.
However, just as the Holstein COW
which wins the blue ribbon at the
fair is judged not only on her form,
conformation. quality and type, but
also on the quality and quantity Of
her milk Sield, Sc are poultry being
Judged c their production and slight
illness in correspondence with breed
ing characters. Birds Of superior vi
gor and vitality are necessary, as
these qualities are the basis of both
successful egg yield and premier ex-
hibition attributes

May Go Hand in Hand

Utility and show-ring poultrymen
often are at outs over nothing. There
is nothing in the standard require
ments directly opposed to utility, and
vice versa. Ambition of certain
breeders to intensity and develop
special qualities in their fowls has re-
suited, however,, in a loss Of consti-
tutional vigor and, consequently egg
producing ability. Breeders who han
die fancy fowls whose standard re-
Quirements demand extreme superb
cial characters, such ms excessive de-
velopment OF comb, face or crest, sat
isfy such conditions usually at the ex-
pense of utility qualities.
Unfortunately the opinion prevails
among many breeders Of utility poul-
try, who never have attempted to
breed for exhibition quality, that be-
cause fowls satisfy the standard re-
quirements they must of necessity,
be poor producers. This is an erro-
neous idea. The ambition of the
leading show men is not only to ex-
hbit fowl of the best breeding type,
but also birds which emphasize prof
table egg production. More and more
each year, poultry fanciers appreciate
that the birds which are to be con-
sistent winners must possess not only
shapely forms but also profitable and
persistent egg-laying ability.
Few Exceptional Fowl
The number of record-breaking
fowl in any flock as a rule Is small,
both from an exhibition standpoint
as well as from that production. It
is always more difficult to breed for
high development Of a combination
Of characters than it is to obtain in
classification of single character.
Any experienced breeder appreciates
that if he concentrates for the pro-
duction of meat combs, and disre-
CARDS other points, he will progress
in the production Of fine heads. But
in so doing he will have neglected the
other qualities which go to make up
exhibition birds, and in the long run
he will not accomplish as much as If
he improved the heads simultaneous
ly with other poultry Characters.
Opportunity for Breeders
II is n difficult task to breed for n
combination Of standard quality and
utility values, but this can and is be-
ing done at profit, In fact, the time
has arrived when every ambitious
breeder should give careful thought
to the opportunity for success along
these lines. The breeder who is sue
cessful in producing a strain Of birds
capable of good production has a
