Among genera!-purpose fowls all are
not equal in respect to either meat or

due to size, or to the shape of birds in

which keep n fowl in good laying

WAS TOOPREWOUS
Sarcasm That Berlin Newspaper
Probably Regrets.
Prophecy That American Soldiers
Would Soon Cross the Rhine and
Enter German Fortresses Has
Been Very Literally Fulfilled.

The most biting irony that came out
of Germany during the war was IN
tanned in the Berlin Lokal Anzeiger. a
little more than a year ago. Several
of II soldiers had been captured by
the Germans. They were dragged all
over the empire and exhibited to the
enrngcd populace. just to show the
Germans that the Americans were
not to he feared" The day the I'M
fortunate prisoners arrived in Berlin
the paper printed the following under
the heading. Good Morning, Boys"
"Three cheers for the Americans!
Clever chaps they are, it cannOt be de-
MED. Scarcely have they touched the
soil of this putreicd Europe when
already they are forcing their way into
Germany. Before long they will cross
the Rhine and also enter our for
tresses. That Is express train speed
for American smartneSs.
ut Is our good fortune that we are
equipped to entertain numerous guests
and that we shall be able to provide
quarters for these gentlemen. How
ever, we cannot promise them dough-
nuts or jam, and to this extent they
will be obliged to recede from their
former standard of living.

WITH TWO HUSBANDS

Cleveland, O.-POlice here are deal

which an unnamed woman finds her.
self. Fifteen years ago the wOman
was married to a Minnesota man and
moved with him to Cleveland, where
they opened a small shop. A year ago
the woman disappeared. Three months
later she came back to town with a
man whom she introduced to her hus-
band as her new husband. and showed
a marriage license from Toledo to
prove that she had another man."
An argument. apparently go0d-na-
tured, followed, and husband No. I
proved TO be a good talker, for his
wife went back to him. Then she left
again and sought out No. 2. The two
husbands tried argument again. but
this time the woman said n policeman
would have to decide the question as
TO whom she ought to live with, 20
they all went to n police station and
told the story. The prosaic sergeant
could see no love to the case and held
the woman on a charge of bigamy.
She is waiting action by the court ut

~ seek some way to help her out of
her trouble.

ing, there exists a tendency to put on
fat whenever laying is interrupted,
only unremitting skillful management
to keep a hen in good laying condition
will make her a first-class egg pro.
ducer.
The egg type or laying type of hen,
in any breed, is the hen that with the
qualities that make for good e pro-
duction, has no quality which is an
obstacle to continual laying. The meat
type is not the of the egg
type, even though the hen that is not a
good layer is fit only for meat.
The meat type, in all kinds of poul-
try, is the type that grows rapidly and
at maturity carries abundant flesh, es-
pecially where the preferred parts of
the meat are produced. The most de-
sirable meat type is rather fine in
bone, with the frame we'll knit but not
too compact. Under any kind OF good
management u hen of this type that is
In normal condition will be q good lay
er. She may not lay any better than
n hen not quite as we'll feshed, but she
ought to lay just as Well, and when
the time comes to make meat Of her
she makes more and better meat, and
rs u breeder she naturally tends to re-
produce offspring that will make more
and better meat.
Such hens are in reality of the dual
purpose type, no matter what their
size or breed. They are equally yalu-
able for eggs and meat. That is the
kind of stock that will contribute most
to the big increase in poultry that is
wanted. 1t is the dual-purpose type of
every breed-a type that exists in
every breed, and can easily be made
the prevalent type without detriment
to any breed, and to the benefit of
every breed-that has suffered from
neglect.
