AVOID HIGH Favored FEEDS
Onions Have Been Fed In, Sufficient
Quantities to Affect Egoe-coier
3, ct Yolk Influenced.

In extreme cases the, flavor and
odor of the feed have been impaired
to the egg. Onions have been fed IN
sufficient quantity to bring about this
effect. Those who desire to market a
arst-class article should not give feeds
of high and objectionable flavor to
their fl0cks.
In no case should tainted feed be
allowed to enter the ration. Feed also
has an influence on the color OF the
;yolk, according to the United States
department of agriculture. Corn ted
exclusively will give a deep yellow or
highly colored yolk, while wheat fed
alone will produce a much lighter
yolk. A fairly high-colored yolk is
usually preferred and can usually be
obtained by feeding moderate
amount of corn. Plenty Of green feed
also enriches the color ct the yolk.

Then Father spurted.

While mamma was out one evening,
father undertook.to cut little Freddie's
hair. BARRIERS are so expensive in
these days.
Though he was making quite a
good lob of it, he was rather slow, and
Freddie, who Is only six and a bit,
found the operation wearisome.
"Are you nearly done, daddie?" he
asked at length.
"yery nearly, sonny" replied his
father. "Tye only got the front to
do now"
"Tm afraid" sighed the small boy
sadly, shat the back viii grow again
while you're finishing the front"

SHOOTING EXPENSIVE SPORT
More Money Spent on Grand American
Handicap Than Any other Big
Sporting Event.

1t costs money to indulge in trap
shooting. One of the shooters in the
Olympic Athletic club Tournament in
San Francisco figured out the cost of
the tournament and was surprised.
Ninety shooters participated in the
four days shooting. They shot at co.
600 targets at 3 cents each, and fred
10000 shells at 5 cents each, while the
other charges cost tIe club about 10
cents shot--which means that the
tournament cost about $4,000 More
money is spent on the Grand Ameri-
can Handicap than any other sporting
event in the world, including the
worlds baseball series.

clerk that I would be back to get my
things in very few minutes.
AS / stepped into the car, my best

1T proved to be a wonderful one, as

myself in the doorway Of the grocery
store. had gone over the curbing
and all, breaking the window as I

SPEND MILLIONS FOR
LARGE SPORT ARENAS
Much Money Being Spent in New

Great Interest Being Displayed in
Various Branches of Athletics Since
Close of War--Tex Richard
Leases Garden.

More than $4,00O,O0O has been in
vested this year in New York city in
buildings and arenas to be used ex-
ciusively for sporting features. This
is just one more illustration Of the
great interest in all branches Of sports
since the close of the war. An entire
ly new field has been opened for the
promotion of sports. The fly-by-night
promoter has been shunted on the
siding and in his place we have real
business operators, organizing to con-
duct amateur and professional sport
ing fixtures on an elaborate scale.
The New York Velodrome company
started this movement for clean and
attractive competition with an invest
ment of $250,00O in the modern stadi.

COULDN'T TAKE HER IN CUP
"Honey" Was What the Youngster
Was After, but Not in Quite
Such a Generous Quantity.

Tommy Brown had not studied pei
manism and his brain was like sieve.
When his mother told him to take
cup to the grocer's and get it filled
with honey he heard what she said !;
but when he got to the grocer's he
forgot what he had come for.
The grocer named one article after
another in the good-natured attempt
to refresh his memory, but all to no
avail. Then he turned to his plump
wife and said:
Honey, can you think what it might
be-"
"That's it; that's it," cried the boy,
excitedly. Honey! But, look here. "
he added, cycling the buxom lady,
you'd better put her on my back and
let me take her that way, for the cup
wouldn't hold her."
