Save Chicken Feed and Get More Epr,

By culling out and selling the chick
ers from your flock that moult early
in the season you will to a very large
extent remove the boarders. Owing to
the high prices of feet, this is espe-
cially desirable at this time Also
since the prospects for egg prices the

should keep only good laying hens by
culling your focks according To di-
rections given in recent publication

Lewiston has undertaken rather
unusual activity in the form of a
campaign against rats. The rodents
are declared to have increased to a
degree that constitutes a serious loss
to the community, damage in the in
stance of one merchant being said to
aggregate more than $40 daily. In
formation as to methods of eXtermin-
alton is being sought from other Pa
cific Northwestern cities.
One hundred and fifty acres of seed
potatoes were produced in Spokane
county this year. Virgil Patton, coun-
t. agent, foreSees in this activity the
advent of new agricultural industry
in the county. 1t is suggested that
the demand for seed potatoes is so
large and the returns so commenSu
rate with the effort involved that ad-
joining counties might also engage in
the industry with most satisfactory
results.

the prize. The story preceding it was
as follows:
"The LATEST man ever knew" said
one young fellow, was Billy Smythe.
He was so lazy that when he started
into building he would get within
the revolving door and wait for
somebody to come along and revolve
it,"
"That man was as busy as bee
compared to Hank Perkins. down in
Arkansas said another Young man.
Hank was given up to be the --LATEST
man in the United States. He was so
lazy he wouldn't get out of the sun
when it was hot, or out out of the
rain when it was wet. One day Hank
was setting on the porch with his
wife. As il happened, his back was
60 the road. A prominent farmer had

remain to be done. The concrete has
been poured in all but "a small section
'of the forms and the wooden fixtures

set in place. The layer of gravel
which will form the foundation of the
playing field has been laid and the
players tunnels are completed.
Homecoming Week, an annual in

at that time The program arranged

return that will increase their inter

old memories 1t is planned to make
this a homecoming surprising all
others, both from point of numbers
and things happening. Not since the
foundation of the university has
there been such an incentive to re
