SPECIALISTS FAVOR
FEEDING BY HOPPER
Flock Is Insured Against Faulty
or insufficient Ration.
Greater Egg Yield Will Result Where
Hens Are Permitted to Get What
Thsy Want-Important That
Growth Be Rapid.

With scarcely an exception, every
poultryman and every farmer who
keeps hens should hopper-feed dry
mash. If the hens are allowed free
range, as they should in the case of
the farm flock, they are expected to
pick up a considerable part of their
living from the wasted material about
the fields and barnyard.
1t is difficult to estimate how much
of such material the hens are finding,
and as a result the farmer may think
that the hens are getting plenty of
feed, when as mattcy 81 Fact they
are not getting more than enough to
keep them alive. and therefore they
cannot do much in the way Of laying
eggs, but a dry mash provided in a
hopper, where the hens can help them.
selves at will, will insure the flock
against insufficient or faulty feeding
and will result in a greater egg yield.
Often, too, in the case of those
who are specializing in poultry keep
ing. judgment as to the amount Of
feed to give by hand may be faulty
and supply of dry mash insures the
hen an opportunity to get what she
needs in order to remain producer.
In raising young stock, specialists
Of the United States department Of
agriculture point out, 1t is important
that the growth be rapid and even. A
setback in growth is handicap from
which the chick never entirely recov-
ers. Regardless Of how the growing
stock NAV no fed n is therefore the
best policy to keep supply of dry
mash in hoppers where the chicks can
help themselves, MS this will insure
the chicks getting ample feed all the
time and will promote greater feed
consumption and more rapid and even
growth.

|EARM>1NOTES

Taking advantage of the market is
more profitable than dumping onto it.
Let us put agriculture on solid
basis by breeding only the very best.
Keep all poultry manure dry until
spring and then apply it to the garden
and special plants.
The great value of rape lies in the
fact that its rapid growth makes it a
good emergency crop.
Stables should have water-tight
floors. Fully One-half the value Of
manure is in the liquid.
The farmers money profit is not
the only dividend that he draws from
his life in the country.

Very Few Drivers Understand
Trick of Getting Car Into
Small Openings.
kNACK WELL WORTH KNOWING
Conditions Govern to Some Extent
Movement and Amount Of Turning
OF WheeI-PIan Outlined
for Cutting Out.

Not one driver in hundred knows
how to work car into small space
to get near a wall or curb when ii is
necessary to wedge in between two
cars not more than twenty-six or
thirty feet apart. This indictment ap-
plies to old as well as new drivers, in
Guiding some chauffeurs and otherwise
capable demonstrators according to an
article which appeared some time ago
In one of the large motor magazines.
To do this Is a trick worth knowing,
for 1t saves time and possible damage
to another mans car that happens to
be in the way.
Goes In Head First.
As a general practice the driver at
tempts to go into the space head first.
whereas 1t will be impossible to work
into space by this method, particu-
1arly II the space is limited. No
amount Of working around and
eramping of wheels will avail unless
there is ample room, and then it will
take good deal of maneuvering.
The direction of the movement of
the car should be a swing to the left
and alongside the forward car. This
will set your car In position heading
slightly out, making it possible to be-
gin backing into the place between the
two stationary cars.
Naturally conditions will govern to
some extent the exact movement and
the amount of turning of the wheel.
but 1t can be seen by this idea the car
ha oil %o fho rt, ot
the back wheels when it is easy to turn
the wheels. This turning of the wheels,
however, should be performed while
the car is still slightly under way, or
else destruction to the tires may result.
Final Operation.
The final operation comes in pulling
the front end of the car around and
getting the front wheels as close to
the curb as possible, yet permitting
room for swinging out. and then turned
out slightly, followed by straighten-
ing movement. Otherwise the body of
the car will not come parallel with the
curbing.
The wheels should not stand nearer
than six inches from the curb, or It
will be difficult to extricate the car
from a close space.
The getting out process is exactly
the opposite: that is. swing the front
end around, but exactly reversed,
bringing the car into position SO the
front wheels will be headed out ani
from this situation it is only necessary
to go ahead. swinging outward, but
being careful to signal on the left that
you are cutting out and into the line
Of traffic.

WHAT ARE
YOUR CHANCES
OF SUCCESS?
Do You Step Out with Snap and
Vigor? Are You Able to Get
Things Done?
DON'T sTANDIN YOUR OWN WAY
People With Thin Weak Blood Have
Hard Time of it. They Should
Take Pepto-Mangan

Look at the facts of your health. So
much depends on having red blood. If
you stand up in front of your work
with half-starved blood in your sys-
TEN you are standing in your own
way. You are blocking your own pro-
gress.
Thin blood makes you dull. 1t
makes you pale. You take no enjoy
ment out of your work. It is only
half as good as it should be.
You can remedy that condition so
easily. Begin taking that fine tonic,
Pepto- -Mangan, today and keep it up
for a while. Your blood will become
nourished. Pepto-Mangan makes id
blood corpuscles. You will get energy
and strong power of resistance. In
stead of standing in your own way,
you will push yourself ahead because
of greater vitality.
But be sure you get the genuine
Pepto- -Mangan. 1t is put up in both
liquid and tablet form. Ask for
"Gude's" and be sure the name is on
the package. The tablets or the liqui
have the same medicinal value. Adv.
