Back Yard Flock
Keeps Family in Eggs

A small flock of hens can be kept
with profit by many town and city
dwellers who have a backyard, say
the poultry specialists Of extension
division, Louisiana State University.
Even as few as eight or ten hens
should produce eggs enough, when
used economically, for a family of
four or five persons throughout the
year, except the moulting period of
the fall and early winter.
Householders usually desire not
only eggs for the table and for cook
ing, but also an occasional chicken to
eat. For this reason one of the gen
eral-purpose breeds, such as Plym-
outh Rock, Wyandotte, Rhode Island
Red, or Orpington, is preferable to the
smaller egg breeds, such as the Leg
horns. Not only do the mature
fowls of these breeds, because of
their larger size, make better table
fowls than the Leghons, but the
young chickens for the same reason
make better fryers and roasters,
whereas, chickens of the egg breeds
are suitable only for the smaller broil-
ers.
The general-purpose breeds are al
so ''broody" breeds, the hens making
good sitters and mothers, which is a
decided advantage when it is decided
to hatch and raise chickens, since the
hens of the egg breeds seldom go
broody and are in any event rather
unreliable sitters and mothers. If,
however, the production of eggs out
weighs the desire for an occasional
table fowl, the lighter egg breeds un-
doubtedly will be found better, be-
cause they lay as many eggs and do
so on less feed, with the result that
they produce eggs more cheaply. It
is by all means advisable to keep some
pure breed or variety. Where this is
done, sales at a profitable figure can
often be made of breeding stock in
tended for market, or of eggs for
Matching.

ARE YOU A

INFLUENZA?
1t Hits Listless, Rundown Peo-
pie First-Their Blood

IN EPIDEM TIC
Be Prepared-Strengthen and
Build Up Your Blood With
Pepto-Mangan

If it is true that you are not feel
ing your best-if you have that sal
ways-tired" feeling in no interest or
enthusiasm-then you should be care
full of the influenza.
1t is a thin-blooded, anemic peo-
pie that disease strikes first. The fact
that you have had very serious ill
ness has nothing to do with it. Every
one gets rundown occasionally, and
when they do, the blood is in no con-
dition to fight off disease germs, be-
cause it has not enough red corpus
cles. It list he red corpuscles of
the blood that fight disease and save
you from sickness.
You simply can't afford to take
chances when influenza is striking
down thousands everywhere. Forti-
fly your blood-build it up yith the
pleasant tonic, Pepto-Mangan.
And should you be just recovering
from influenza, you need Pepto-Man-
gan because your blood has exhaust
ed its strength. Pepto-Mangan will
help build you up.
Pepto-Mangan is widely and hear
tily endorsed by physicians. It is
effective and easy to take. Comes in
either liquid or tablet form. No diff
ference in medicinal properties.
Sold at any drug store. But be
sure you get the genuine Pepto- Man
gam Guides" Ask for it by the
name and be sure the full name is on
the package.-adv.
