Pat Moran,


The Reds have been put on the
grease by some of the experts who
claim they are overconfident. Pat
Moran nailed the sentiment before it
got far. Pat says:
THE Reds aren't .overconfident.
They realize that they will have to
fight hard for every game. The
Giants, Dodgers, Cubs and Pirates will
not be easy by any means this season
and the Reds know it. I'll make no
changes in the lineup. See, Crane,
Schneider and Corner are good extra
men. I'll use them now and then to
give the regulars rest. But l can't
afford to take any chances. The
champions will be ready for quick
getaway on April a."

DRUGS Detrimental TO COW
Experiments at Iowa State COLLEGE
Show That Alcohol, AIoes, ETC.,
Are Harmful.

The use Of drugs with the idea OF
increasing the fat production of test
COWS has been tried out by Iowa State
Agricultural college dairy section. In
most cases it was found that drugs
decreased rather than increased the
fat production.
Such drugs as alcohol castor oil.
pituitrin, aIoes, magnesium sulphate,
nnx vomica and sodium chloride were
tried and in all cases they were detri-
mental to the cows All cows used
were in good normal condition at the
start of the tests and various sizes Of
doses We're used.
In some cases it was found that the
flow of milk and butterfat was in
creased slightly, but this soon fell of
and in the end decrease was no.

Up to date no drug has been found
that will increase the butterfat
Dalrymen are strongly advised not to
resort to this method as it INJURIES the
COWS and is not a fair way to gain a
record.

Pullets and hens do better for hav-
ing oyster shell as regular part of
their ration. This was proved by the
New York experiment station some
years ago, when a poultry writer con-
demned the use of oyster shell as un-
necessary.
It was proved that a pound of oyster
shell contains enough lime to manu-
factnre about seven dozen eggs. This
should not be fed in the mash. Fowls

Good Roads Are Advantageous Alike
70 Producer and Consumer
Storage Charges Less.

When the roads Of the great pro-
ducing zones Of this country are i'm
proved, benefits will accrue not only
to producers but to consumers. When
marketing is distributed throughout
the year, storage charges must decline.
This country is paying at present lArge
storage prices on foOdstuffs. The dis
advantages Of freight congestion in the
fall cannot be entirely eliminated In
many places, but good roads will GER
tainly have marked tendency to dis
tribute hauling over longer periods.
1t is reasonable to say, therefore,
that good roads mean that diversified
farming will be encouraged, the area
Of profitable production increased, the
opportunity for favorable marketing
improved, and more uniform distribu-
ton of farm products secured.

HOW TO RID FLOCK OF FLEAs
Necessary to Clean and Spray Houses
and Runs Thoroughly and Then
Treat the Fowls.

In many of the Southern and South
western states fowls and chicks are
often infested by species Of flea,
commonly known as the "stick-tight"
flea because of it's habit of sticking to
one place on the bird instead Of NOV
ing about like lice and mites. They
are usually found in clusters on the
comb, wattes, and around the eyes.
Chicks, when infested, often die quick

and more resistant, will cease laying,

BEST TEMPERATURE OF MILK
only way to Insure Accuracy in Feed
ing Calves Is Thorough Use
Of Thermometer.

MILK as it comes from the COW DOS
sesses temperature near 100 de-
grees Fahrenheit. When feeding young
calves it is we'll to be very particular
in regard to this matter. The only
way to insure accuracy in determining
temperature is through the use of
thermometer. AS calves grow older
eight to ten weeks OF age, the tenn
perature may be reduced to 80 de-
grees Fahrenheit. However, it is al
ways desirable to warm the liquid ra-
ton slightly, even for calves six
months Of age.

POINTS
KEEPING MARKET MILK COOL
out Proper Refrigeration Shows
High Bacterial Count.

Generally, the larger numbers Of
bacteria found in market milk when II
reaches the consumer are due more to
the multiplication of the bacteria than
TO the original contamination. This
great multiplication occurs because
the milk is not properly cooled during
storage, transportation and delivery.
Just now this fact is of particular i'm
portance to the person having milk
to sell.
Commercial experience confirms the
results Of experimental work. Milk
which has been held for several hours
without proper refrigeration nearly
always shows higher counts than fresh

IMPROVED
HIGHWAYS
INCREASE IN MOTOR TRAFFIC
Statistics show lncrsas. Of 1,4,s,s2s
Cars Over 1s1s-Roads Must
Be Maintained.

That the present interest In the con-
structiOn Of new highways should not
divert attention from properly main
tanning highways already improved is
point which the bureau of public
roads, United States department of az
riculture, has had occasion to enlpha-
size many times in recent months. par
ticularly in view of the enormous in
crease in motor vehicle traffic which ID
taking place. The bureau recently
completed compilation of statistics
from all the states Of the Union show
ing that there were total of 1865, 446
registered motor cars (including motor
cycles and trucks In the United
States in 1919. This is an increase of
% per cent, or 1,418.S29 motor cars
over 1918. Such figures Indicate that
the country's highways are being used
far more than in the past, it is pointed
out, and in consequence added atten-
ton must be given to the repair prob
lem. The increase in the number of
cars for 1910 over 1913 represents
about 10 per cent more cars than the
total number registered in the entire
United States for 1913.
Additional use of roads and streets
has, Of course, been accompanied by
additional revenue paid to state and
local governments in the form of IL
cense fees, which in nearly all states
are devoted to highway needs. The
registration and license fees for auto
mobiles, trucks, and motor cycles in
use in 1919 totaled $64,697 .255. 5S--an
increase of 20 per cent over 1918. The
total revenues for New York and Penn

HOPING FOR FAIR
 FREIGHT TARIFFS
 ON SOUTH'S ROADS
Traffic Men Think Com mission Will Realize South Is Already Taxed Far
 Higher Than North

E. B. Gains, assistant gen. eral manager of the Montgom- cry traffic bureau, believes that the interstate commerce commission is going to raise transportation rates in the southeastern territory about 15 per cent and those in the north ern and western classificaions 100 per cent.
 He further believes that the Is per cent raise will be distributed in about this way; Ten per cent in freight rates. the other per cent equally in express and passenger rates.
 MT. Gaines bases this belief on the showing made by the southern traffic bureau, representative of the various local southern bureaus, in the presen- tation of the case before the commits sion.
 The case was presented by Charles E. Cottrell of Atlanta for the sonth at large. He was materially assisted by M. M. Caskie of Montgomery, general manager of the Montgomery traffic bureau. These gentlemen showed two things:
 That the southern railroads had made net earnings during the railroad administration and since, while the northern and western roads had shown up with deficits.
 That the rates in the south are all ready 100 per cent higher than the same rates are over the northern roads.
 The gist of this showing was this:
 NEED LESS AID
 The southern railroads need less aid than the northern, and the southern people are already paying higher rates than the northern. The northern roads need more aid and the northern people are paying lower rates than the southern.
 MT. Gaines says the showing was such a complete one that he and Mr Caskie feel confident that the advance

JOURNEY TO LONDON
 FOR ONE BOY SCOUT
International Convention to Be Held There Soon

Birmingham will be represented in the international convention of the Boy Scouts of the World, which will be held in London, England. some time in July, if the plans of the local scout masters materialize.
 At the international convention there will be scouts from almost every country including China and Japan. The Hawaiian Islands also will have delegate and nearly every large city in the United States will send one or more.
 Brmingham's delegates has not been named yet, but will be appointed by E. s. Andrews, scout executive. from several who are considering the trip.
 The total cost of the trip is esti- mated at about S400. Scouts are sup posed to pay their own way but in Birmingham donations will be made to fund which will be used to meet the expenses of the delegate. The trip to London will occupy over a month, but the convention will only last about three days. The originators of the scout movement in England and America will be present.
