THE GIRL ON THE JOB
How to succeed-How to Get
Ahead-How to Make Good
Dy JESSIE ROBERTS
CHANCE WITH POULTRY

WHEN a woman wants to earn
w money and doesn't know how
seven times out Of ten she will decide
that the thing for her Is poultry. She
decides to raise chickens.
And after a while. with her money
spent and more experience than she
will know what to do with for years
to come, she parts from her chickens,
those that are left, and goes to some
other and as far away az possible
place, deciding to clerk In a store or
walt in lunchroom rather than ever
sec a live chicken again.
But women do make success with
poultry, and they are among the hap
piest and healthiest and most salts
ned women In America. The life out.
doors with the pretty birds they raise.
the feeling that they have a home Of
their own and are their own masters.
and the genuine interest Of the work
are all factors In this result. But the
young woman who turns longingly to.
ward chicken raising. especially at the
prevailing prices for eggs and poultry,
needs to stop. look and listen.
II she can afford the time and
money. two-year course In some
agricultural school or college will be
fine thing. But she can do without
this. She can get excellent books on
the subject. and II she looks about a
little she may be able to get some
practical experience on poultry farm.
One summer would be a great help II
so spent.
Successful raisers agree that II
takes four or five acres Of land and
about five hundred pullets to make a
start. The same experts say that II
requires nt least 1000 chickens TO
make good living. This means plenty
Of work, especially in the Matching
season. With that number on well.
managed ten-acre lot girl can count
on fair income. She can supple
ment her profits by keeping pigeons,
that are also good investment when
you know how to handle them, and
further by having a healthy little set
tlement of hares and rabbits for the
market.
by that time she can afford q iiv.
yer and begin to buy some baby bonds.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"NEws."

DoPULAR etymology, which
L is akin to 'fireside law"
states that the word news" Is
derived from the initials Of the
four points Of the compass
North, East, West and South
and that the weather.vane SYM
bol was placed at the top Of q
number Of the earlier newspa.
pers to indicate that they col.
lected their information from
all parts Of the earth. The lat
ter statement may be true. but
the former can hardly be credit.
ed for the reason that the word
news" was used by Shake
speare some nifty years or more
before the publication Of the
first newspaper.
A study Of the equivalent
word In German and other Ian.
guages will further show the
fallacy Of the compass.theory.
The Teutonic word Is neuigkeit-
en- and the French nouvelles and
II Is impossible for either one
OF these to be derived from the
points Of the compass which, In
the two languages. are repre-
sented by the letters IN. O. W.
s." and IN. r. o. g." The Ger.
man das neue appears to be
much closer to the English
news" but the word was
really derived from the Anglo
Saxon niwes, us clearly indicat.
ed by Berner's translation Of
Frolssart. published In 1900. In
which II is spelled "newes."
