BABY Chicks-Tollrists

How would you like to see 1000 baby
hicks all at once?
1t would be fun would it not?
Out at Mr.. Fred Porterfield's house which
about two hop, skip and jumps from the
Id wooden bridge on West Fifth street
hat goes over the railroad tracks, the folks
here see 1000 baby chicks every Tuesday
morning.
Mr.. and Mrs. Porterfied make it bust
ness to hatch little chicks and they have a
great big incubator about as big as small
room which holds 10000 eggs at one time.
This is heated by little coal stove and is
kept always at the temperature OF 100 de-
grees Fahrenheit. There are electric fans
inside this large incubator which scatters
The heat all around. Every week On Mon
day, 1900 new eggs are put In on the very
topmost shelves of the incubator and every
week on Tuesday, 1000 little chicks are TAX
en- out from the lowest shelves. 1t takes
three weeks for the chicks to hatch.
Your editor was at Porterfields last Mon
day afternoon and saw the baby chicks
some already Matched some just PARKWAY
out of the shell and some just beginning to
crack their she'll How pretty and downy
most of them were and so fuzzy and talk
alive! Most of them were yellow, but there
were some brown ones and some cunning
little black ones with white topnots. After
they are Matched they are packed in grass
in chick boxes and are sent to places far
away, where they spend their lives. Some
have been sent to Philadelphia, some to
New York and some as far away as Georgia.
From their happy "cheep. cheeps' one
imagines that they think themselves very
lucky chicks to be able to see so much of
the world.

Few Of us escape measles-it
is one of the corntnonest of child
hood diseases. Every mother
knows the symptoms, but the
mistake that most mothers make
is in failing to realize that the
child is not fully recovered after
the eruption and fever disappear;
The air passages are still infa1ned
and if this Inflammation is not
cleared up, the air passages may
be weakened, thus paving the
way for pneumonia or serious
disease Of the lungs.
Nightly applications OF Vick's
VapoRub will aid nature in
relieving this inflammation. Be
cause Vicks acts locally by slim
ulation thru the sVsin to draw
out the inflammation attract the
blood away from the congested
spots and relieve the cough. In
addition, the medicinal ingre-
dents of Vicks are vaioorized by
the body heat. These vapors
are breathed in all night long,

EuRoPE's GRAND YOUNG MAN

II is impossible not to marvel at the
amazing athlete, Clemenceau. He Is at
once the old man and the small boy OF
Europe. How he survives his various shocks
and misadvcntures IL nothing short OF q
miracle, vet survive them he does, and
each time he comes up smiling, apparently
with an inexhaustlble appetite Tor more.
Last spring, when alpost so years OF
age, he was shot. Most people thought
that, with one of his years, the effects OF
the shock, if not of the bullets, must per-
force prove fatal.
Yet they proved nothing OF the sort.
The iron old man, even while his would
be assassin was firing successive shots at
him. merely laughed and grlnted a com
ment upon the atrocious marksmsnship OF
his assailant A few weeks ago this right
ly-named Tiger" of energy made q fly
ing trip TO London. While crossing the
Channel he had n fall which was said TO
have injured his ribs; but such o mishap
had no daunting results upon Clemen-
ceau. He seemed to forget 1T at once and
dispatched. apparently vast amount or
business with Lloyd George. He returned
to Paris and had no more TO say about
the accident.
Now, still more recently, he was par
ticipant in an automobile smashup which
seriously injured four deputies. Clemen-
ceau himself escaped unhurt. The man
seems to bear charmed llfe.-Minne-

PRESS COMMENT.
CONCURRENT POWER.

In his inaugural address, 0ovcrno'
Edwards Of New Jersey proposes u make
the most Of the concurrent power ot en-
foroement conferred upon the States py
the Eighteenth Amendment. he I'm,
guage scd, he says, 'is not the result OF
accident or idle thought, but rather Is
indicative of the intention on the Pnrt OF
the several States to require their con-
currcnce Mt lcast as TO intrnststc ooni~
merce, in any proposed Federal Legislation
concerning Intoxicating beverages.
To give practical application to tls,6
theory the governor urges statutory III
terprctation of the amendment by the
Legislature, pending the determination
of the validity Of the article and to g,inrd
against an attempt to enforce Federal leg
islation whic may be contrary to the cS-
pressed desire Of the people Of New Jersey,
II the State shall thus meet tho issue OF
concurrent power. it will present ques-
ton second only in Importance to that
raised by Rhode Island, which challenges
the legality of the amendment IN It's
entirety.
In no other part Of the Constitution IS
such a thing ns concurrent power mention-
ed. Certain powers are denied TO the nat
and TO the States, always without equivo-
cation. The true authority of tho nation II
never shared with the States, and the
powers reserved 10 the States or the people
are absolutely withheld from the Federal
government. Unless the amendment Is TO
be pronounced invalid on the ground OF
indefiniteness, the concurrent power
clause is as vital to the States as TO Con-
gresss. and New Jersey properly takes the
lead in testing the matter.--New York

THE TREATY TIDE.

II say, in conclusion, that the tide OF
public opinion is rapidly rising against the
ratification of the League, with or without
amendments. Senator Reed.
Time and tide wait for no man except
the Senator from Missouri. That open
minded statesman seems to have secured
possession and control of tide which
operates under laws effective in the Ozarks
but nowhere else in nature. 1t rs tide
which Senator Reed end his colleagues
of the Death Battalion discerned to be
rapidly rising before MIR. Wilson began
his Western trip and which has been rising
with such rapidity since then as to leave
the treaty-killers high and dry. IL IS a
tide which was TO overwheln the President
in California and which swept the leading
Republicans of California into repeated
petitions to the Senate to ratlfy the Treaty
Ii is tide which surged through Oklahoma
and threw eggs at Senator Reed. 1t Is
tide which has carried the churches, the
chamber of commerce, the women's or
CARNATIONS, the colleges and the Fedora
tion of Labor off their feet and into Wash
ington with insistent demands for the
ratification of the Treaty. The rising
tide against the Treaty is rising backwards.
