SO we'll that they are likely to over
eat. but it will supply source of feed
in case they are not getting enough
grain feed. The dry mash also pro-
vides a suitable medium for feeding
beef scrap, a certain amount of which
may or may not be necessary, de-
pending upon the amount of meat
scraps available in the table waste.
II the hens show tendency to be-
come overfat it may be desirable to
close the mash hopper during a part
Of the day and allow them access to
it only during a certain period, pre-
feraly the afternoon.
A good dry mash, recommended by
poultry specialists OF the United
States Department of Agriculture. is
composed Of equal parts by weight
of corn meal. wheat bran, wheat mid
dlings and beef scrap. Another mash
is composed Of 3 parts by weight of
corn meal and part Def scrap. Still
third mash, which, has given excel
lent results, is composed Of l pound
OF wheat bran, pound of wheat
mtddings. 6.5 pounds Of beef scrap,
and 1875 pounds of corn meal. The
beef scrap used in the dry mash is
usually the most expensive ingredient,
but it is an essential part of the mash
and very efficient for egg production
1t should not be eliminated or re-
duced unless the quantity of meat IN
the table scraps is considerable or
unless some other product can be
substituted for It, Fish scrap. when
available, may replace the beef scrap.
or cottonseed meal can be used to
replace one-half the Def scrap in the
mash. No attempt should be made
to replace more than half the beef
scrap with cottonsed meal, as the re-
suits in egg production and in the
quality of the eggs will be unsatis-
factory.
Green-cut bone can often be pur-
chased from the butcher. This ma
terial when procured fresh makes an
excellent substitute for beef scrap
1t should be purchased in small
quantities. as 1t can not be kept fresh
for any length of time and when
spoiled may cause sever bowel trou-
BILE. 1t is best fed in trough not
oftener than every other day, allow
ing about one-half ounce per bird
Should severe or continued looseness
of the bowels follow the feeding of
green-cut bone it should be discon-
tinued or the quantity reduced.

Fowls to be used at home may be
killed more easily by chopping off
their heads. The fowls may be either
dry picked or scalded. Dry picking
makes better-appear'ng market
fowl, but scalding. which is easier. is
often preferred. il the bird is for
home use. Dry picking should be
done Immediately after the bird is
killed, as the feathers then come out
more easily. Be careful not to tear
the skin. For scalding. use water
heated Just below the boiling point,
immersing the fowl two or three
times, or until the feathers pull off
easily, but do not leave it in so long
that the skin scalds.
Cool the fowls after they are
picked, either by hanging them up in
a cool place or soaking them in cold
or iced water. Fowls for market are
usually sold undrawn. but for home
or local use they may be drawn by
removing the crop through an open
ing made in the skin of the neck, and
cutting Ground the vent and then re-
moving the nitestines and all other

Usually hens make better breeders
than pullets. Cockere's. If well
grown and matured. often give better
fertility than older birds. However,
cock birds that have proved good
breeders should be used.

POTATO GROWERS DEMAND
OFFICIAL STATE GRADING
Ten Inspectors in Yakima Valley
Giving Entire Time Grading
TubcrS for Market.

M. l.. Dean, chief of the horticul-
tural division Of the state department
OF agriculture. has returned to his
Office in the state house after a weeks
trip including Prosser. Spokane, Yak
ina Valley and Walla Walla where he
has been looking up matters connect
ing with the potato inspection, a new
= service which is being rendered by
this department on broad scale this
year in the Yakima valley and in the
vicinity of Mount Vernon in Skagit
county.
For the past three years the potato
growers of the state have inspected
their potatoes under the federal grade
but in 1919 the Washington state
grade was declared and few shippers
in 1919 sent out their large shipments
under the Washington grade. This
year all the largest shipprs in Yakima
and Skagit county are shipping pota-
toes under the state law which is
divided into three grades; Washing
ton fancy grade. Washington grade
No. and Washington grade No. 2.
Before the potatoes can be certified
they must be inspected and graded
according to suality.
.~ According to Mr.. Dean there are at
the present time ten men in the Yak
ina valley who are giving their entire
time to potato inspection.
The potato growers association,
with headquarters In Toppenish
which covers IS per cent of the crops
in the Yakima valley is planning to
send out entire crop this year under
the state grade. At the present time
the state grade is not compulsory
but there is large demand, stated
Mr. Dean, to make it compulsory and
that oil potatoes sold in the state
must be sold under the grade.

Give the Cut Tire Attention.

ulto TIC Sul lite fACUt,utIOus
ABUSES to tires are more frequent
during winter than perhaps any
other season of the year." declared
r. o. Tucker, sales manager of the
Kelly Tire Company, distributors Of
Kellys in Thruston county and Olym-
pia. Mr.. Tucker goes on to show
how greater satisfaction can be had
from tires If only car owners will
give them attention.
"A cut in a tire during winter
time, If deep enough. can prove fatal
to a tire, no matter how we'll made 1t
it, If the owner does not give 1t at
tentioi' said Mr.. Tucker. THE wet
sand and water eat their way into
the inner fabric and it finally results
in a blowout. 1t costs SO very little
to have a tire vulcanized or attend
ed to in some other manner that 1t
really is nothing when you consider
you are saving the price of tire.
Give the cut in the tire attention as
soon as possible.
"Other abuses that result in enor-
nous waste are skidding, misalign-
ment of the wheels, running In car
tracks. rubbing against curbs and
ruts, and under-inflation. Practical
ly every motorist is guilty of one or
another of these abuses and all tend
to raise his tire costs. The car
owner will find to his surprise how
much longer his tires will wear II he
will but avoid these few little ILL
treatments"

Special TO THu suN AM EEw YoAK HERALD.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 10. - An inter-
view with DR.. Hugh II. Young Of
Johns Hopkins, printed to-day in the
Baltimore Sun, caused a stir In Wash
ington becouse 1t was the first admis-
sion by one Of the Presidents physi-
clans publicly made that the Presi-
dent in October had suffered from a
cerebral congestion, with resultant
paralysis OF the left side. Or. Young
in this interview is quoted as saying:
"As you know. in October last We
diagnosed the Presidents case as cere-
bral thrombosis which affected his left
arm and leg, but at no time was his
brain power or the extreme vigor and
lucIdity OF his mental process in the
slightest degree abated. This condi-
ton has from the very first shown a
steady, unwavering tendency toward
resolution and complete absorption.
The increasing utility Of the left arm
and leg, greatly impaired at first, have
closely followed upon this improve
ment. The President walks sturdily
now without pain and without fatigue,
He uses the slightly impaired arm.
and more every day."
DR.. Young was quoted as saying fur
ther that the Presidents mental vlgor
was simply prodigious; that in many
ways he was in better shape than be-
fore his illness; that he could now work
several hours day without fatigue, and
that the weather only was holding him
back so far as his public appearance is
concerned
DR.. Young made 1t clear that he per-
mitted the quotation OF these statements
In order to relieve the public mind. DR..
Grayson refused to comment on this
interview in any way, although he did
not seem to be In the slightest degree
upset by Il.
The condition of President Wilson has
Improved so much in the last few weeks
Is to give the greatest encouragement to-
his friends There Is no question that
Mr.. Wilson ls doing Pa increasing
amount of work every day, which al
ready covers much OF the White House
routine, and that he looks better than
he has In many months.

SURROUNDED BY LUXURY

The body OF Mrs. C. E. Page, 40
years old, formerly a wealthy resident
Of Mamaroneck. n. Y. was found on
bed in her apartment In the Van
derbilt Hotel at o'clock last night
by an assistant housekeeper, bullet
wound In her right temple and a re-
volver clutched in her right hand. She
had committed suicide, according to
DR.. Charles A. Norris. medical exami-
ner, eight or ten hours before.
The fact that Mrs, Page had written
a note to an officer Of the hotel, dl-
recting him to deliver the key to her
safe deposit box to stoneham & Co.,
New York brokers. and also that be-
side her beA lay a copy Of yesterdays
Wall Street Journal, led detectives to
believe that she had become despon-
dent over financial matters and the
money markets decline.
In the beautifully appointed room In
which Mrs. Page had lived since Janu-
ary were many costly gowns and more
than a score Of pairs OF shoes. Hats
and evening wraps filled the closets and
an envelope found In the room contained
a receipt for $425. her last monthly pay
ment on Woodlodge. her home in Mama
roneck. which. It afterward was learned,
she has sub-leased to Mrs. Mary Gish,

Members OF the staif Of the Wander

ment rents promptly and had lived In
the Vanderbilt quietly, receiving few Wis
itors and doing little entertaining.
On Monday. according 10 an assistant
manager OF the hotel, she had called for
a notary 10 assist her In drawing up

The fact that the lights were burning
