now seem improbable, it will be the fault
of those who are connected with business
operations or others who by reason of
official positions improperly interfere.

predicted by Mr.. Gary. He described in

fields of the two countries, expressing
surprise that any appreciable progress

feed on the range.
By feeding mash which is more
or less what might be termed
"predigested ration" the feed pass
es through the crop and gizzard
with little or no delay and goes
almost directly to assimilation and
egg development and requires very
little grit to accomplish prepara-
ton for those purposes; hence the
increased egg production.
Sight must not be lost OF tne
fact, however, that if this mill
or gizzard, is not kept in operation
to a certain extent it is liable to
become sluggish and perhaps d.
seased; so it is advisable to feed a
certain amount Of whole grain, or,
preferably, scratch feed, in the
afternoon before sundown.. The
fowls are assured the necessary
material for the nights run,
which not only keep the "mill" in
order, but also serves to generate
warmth for the body and stimu-
late circulation during the period
of inactivity while the fowl is
asleep.

a winner when we secured the ag-
ency for "The Federal Washer"
The Federal is quiet running,
takes up very little space and does
the best possible work in the short
est length of time.
The Federal is one of the very
few machines that after being
thoroughly tested in every way,
has been approved by the Good
Housekeeping Institute. This is
the highest authority on all things
pertaining to the home.
Besides being exceptionally well
built, the Federal is constructed of
the famous Armco Rust-Proof iron
and is beautifully enameled in blue
and white. 1t is equipped with
swinging reversible wringer with
gears enclosed.
The machines are now on display
in the implement department.
