J. X. White, public welfare commits

w. Givens, superintendent of the North
Idaho sanitarium at Orofino in which
Mr.. Owens points out that the appro-
priation for the institution Is going to
be inadequate for the present bienni-

At the time the appropriation bill
was up in the legislature, $500 was
cut from the amount asked by the SAN

drop and that that much could have
been saved during the biennium.

According to our immigration offic-

new constitution. De Negri admits In
his letter that steps are being taken
in the United States by radical Soc

to American interests in Mexico and
would stir up trouble between the Unit

In the meantime radicals are being

WAR RECORD OF LEVIATHAN
Thousands of Soldiers to
French Ports.

The giant transport Leviathan, fol-
lowing her arrival in New York har-
Dor with Gen. Pershing and troops Of
the First division, brought to a close
her important service in helping win
the war. The big ship, after being
refitted for passenger service, is to be
turned back to the United States ship
ping board, the agency which seized
1t when the United States entered the
war. While the future Of the ship
Is uncertain. 1t is reported that she
will be assigned to American passen-
ger trade between New York and
Liverpool, with possible extension in
the future Of q service to Hamburg.
The Leviathan, formerly the Water
land, the second largest ship In the
world, was interned in New York by
the Germans in 1914. She was will
fully damaged" to the extent Of more
than $1,OOO,000. After being recun-
ditioned by American engineers. she
was assigned as transport. and
during and since the war made 10
round trips on the Atlantic, carrying
total of 1S5,5OO soldiers, Of whom
9S,321 were carried overseas through
submarine infested seas. She was al
ways a mark for U-boats, but her
speed and the armament with which
she was equipped saved her.

of squads Is a great aid to the small
producer. Where one has a small
flock, 1t usually pays best to build 1t
up until 1t Is large enough to make
good-sized shipments Of squads. This
however, requires a constant outlay
without any return for some time.
The production Of squads from each
pair of breeders varies from one or
two to as high as ten or eleven pairs
year, but an average Of from six to
seven pairs is fair estimate, although
some squad breeders do better than
this. Squads usually sell at the high
est prices during cold weather, as
pigeons do not breed as freely during
the winter as during the spring.

ment. although as a rule, where the
breeder has superior stock to offer of
showroom excellence and record, In
many instances, the fowl will sell
themselves on their exhibition per-
Torrance without any extra efforts on
the part Of the owner.
Advertising at Home.
Poultrymen, the country over, find
1t advantageous to use neat and at
tractive roadside signboards at their
farm gates, which announce the breed
ing and number Of fowl they have to
offer, as well as the price, If desired.
These signboards may be made in the
form of inclosed cases so that the
sales sheets may be changed frequent
ly. Some owners paint the name Of
their farm and the breed Of poultry
which they keep on the roof Of shed
or barn, where 1t is conspicuous from
the country highway, while others
place similar information on the wa.
ter tower or near the top Of a silo.
They aim to attract the attention Of
the passer-by, and In one way or 9TH
er leave with him lasting impression
concerning farm and poultry offerings.
A California Barred Rock breeder
painted all the fence posts on his farm
with alternate stripes Of black and
white, so that they suggested Barred
Rock fowl. These fence posts were
his trade mark and the passers-by usu-
ally associated these posts with the
breed Of fowl which was maintained
on this farm. This unique scheme
was credited with many profitable
sales.
Extensive breeders Of poultry follow
the advertising methods practiced by
breeders of other varieties of live
stock. They issue annual and elab-
crate catalogues containing pictures
of their prize winners as we'll as de-
tailed records Of the breeding and
winnings of their flocks. They also
utilize postcards, circular letters, per.
sonal letters, and the customary ''fol.
low-up" system of advertising. They
index all inquiries regarding their
stock and at regular intervals COM
municate with inquirers who appear
interested, ultimately making many
sales. Persistency, consistency, and
insistency form trinity in poultry
advertising and the uniform and profit
able dissemination Of high-grade breed
Ing stock.

Squads are ready for market usually
from 3h to Az weeks of age and up
to this time they are fed by their par

promptly, as the period during which
they are In best condition rarely ex-

poultry specialists of the department,
squads are in good market condition
when fully feathered under the wings,

begin to leave the nest. If they are

their baby fat and their flesh begins
