The hens should be culled out dur

and August. When hen is laying
her comb will be large, full Of blood.
and bright red in color. AS she stops
laying the comb becomes small and
shrunken, pale or dull in color, aud
is usually rather hard. Another cool
indication to use in selecting those
hens which stop laying early is mott

early--that is. in JULY and August
are usually the poorest producers.
While hen which has molte1

is to handle them. Before the body

Twelve major federal Fairgrounds
In the West. as we'll as many national
monuments and forests, have been
lassoed by scenic running moose, IN
the master motor road of the country,
known as the National Park-to- Park
highway.
This lariat highway was suggested
by the National Park service: mapped
out by the American Automobile AZ.
ISOLATION, of which Gus Holms,. oi
Cody. Wyo., is president.
Its defined course not only makes
history for motordom, as being the
longest continuous wonder way in the
world. but invites anticipation Of the
early recognition by the congress of
the indisputabls fact that within. the
confines Of this encircling highway is
an arboreal fairyland, with interna-
(tional drawing powers.
This connecting park highway is
$500 miles in length and traverses
nine states. Its dedication recently,
at Denver, to all the people presaged
the day. not far distant, when a fed
eral highway system of hard-surfaced
boulevards will extend from coast to
coast. in the consideration of which
recreational benefits and facilities in
reaching open markets with crops are
destined to be important factors.
The mapping and opening of the
National Park-to-Park highway is the
first concerted step taken toward that
great end. Its scope, as to varieties
in climate and length Of journey, may
be favorably compared with CONT
mental Europe. in that 60-day tour
OF the route now is in progress.
Stephen T. Mather, director of the
National Parks service; A. l.. West
gard, who made the pathfinding trip
as the representative of the American
Automobile Association, are among
the official party. The dedicatory
ceremonies held in Denver are being
continued in meetings held in the
principal cities visited. including Che
yenne and Cody, Wyo.; Great Fails,
Mont; Spokane mad Seattle, Wash;
Portland, Ore; Sacramento, San
Francisco and Los Angeles, Calf. and
Pueblo and Colorado Springs. Colo
In the caravan of 25 automobiles
bearing the party are cars represent.
ing every state through which the
highway passes. California. Wyoming
and Montana sent cars to Denver to
begin the journey from the starting
point, on August 25, and other cars
containing state and county officials
are acting as convoy to guide the car
AVIAN through its own commonwealth.
The official party will pass through
this section late in September.
The master highway begins. lariat
fashion, any place, in Maine, Virginia.
Florida, Illinois or Louisiana.
wherever the automobile tourist lives.
Other cities on the route may be used.
but Denver is the logical gateway to
these IL national parks. The scenic
lariat, officially. is thrown out from
within the department of the interior
at Washington. D. c., Of which John
barton Payne is secretary.

touches every main transcontinenta!
