TO KEEP HENS COMFORTABLE
House Must Be Kept Dry, Well Ven-
tllated and Sufficient Space
for Scratching.

The poultry house is both the
home of the hen and the factory
where winter eggs are produced, and
unless 1t provides suitable living and
working conditions the hen cannot
be expected to lay well. The chief
requirement is that the house must
keep the birds comfortable. To be
comfortable the house must be dry,
well ventilated, we'll lighted and have
sufficient floor space to provide eXer-
else by scratching. Dryness is in
sured by having a good roof, keep
Ing the floor Of the house higher than
the surrounding ground, and by pro-
viding good ventilation Ventilation
must supply plenty Of fresh air with
out drafts. This Is secured In the
poultry house by having the south
side relatively open and the other
three sides absolutely tight. The i'm

CONTROL OF SPOTTED BORER
Best Friend of Apple Grower in De-
stroying Most Injurious Pest
Is Woodpecksr.

The best friend Of the apple grower
so far as warfare on spotted apple
tree horers Is concerned-is the wood
pecker. Specialists of the United
States Department Of Agriculture de-
clare that If 1t were not for the wood
pecker this pest would be more wide
ly known and much more destructive.
Control Of the borer at present, how
ever, Is not difficult matter, accord
Ing to department bulletin No. $50,
which contains a full discussion Of
the pest and the best means for keep
ing It's destruction within bounds
Spraying apple orchards with ar
senicals for the codling moth and
other common insect pests kills many
adult borers, 1t is said. While small,
borers may be found and removed from
the trees very readily by pairing away
the bark over their burrows with a
sharp knife.

TREE-REPAIR WORK SLlGHTED
Due at Times to unfavorable Expert
ences With Dishonest or Incapable
HortleulturIst

At present trec-rcpair work has not
received the recognition and approval
from tree owners that 1t deserves.
This may be due ut times to unfnvor-
able experiences with dishonest or lg-
norant tree surgeons, at other times
spend much money In preserving their
trees, or from their ignorance OF the
benefits that may result when tree
repair work is properly done.
Reliable tree surgeons are doing
much In practical way to educate
the public rs TO the benefits of tree.
repair work. A few states have laws
regulating tree-repair work on II COM
merc!al basis.
The United States Department of
Agriculture invites correspondence
concerning methods Of trce-rcpair
work, and Is prepared to advise for
or against any particular method so
far as experience and the results of
experiments permit. Farmers Bulle-
tin IT'S on tree surgery will be sent
free on application.
Tree owners are urged to remember
that the necessity for tree-rcpair work
Is or 20 years hence may be reduced
materially by promptly attending to
the fresh injuries Of today.
Most persons can, at least with a
very little preliminary practice on the
simpler types of work, undertake ordi-
nary tree surgery provided they are
familiar with the use Of gouge and
mallet, saw and paint brush. a
steady head and ability to climb will
be necessary for work In the top Of
the tree.
A badly diseased or injured tree
should be removed and replaced by a
healthy one unless there is some very
special reason for trying to preserve
the tree.
Two axioms of tree-repair work
that should be horne in mind constant
ly are: that prompt treatment Of
freshly made wounds Is the surest
and most economical method Of pre-
venting disease and decay in the fu-
ture, and that all wounds made in tree
surgery should be cleaned, steriIized
and protected from infection just as
thoroughly as In animal surgery, and
for the same reason.

PEOPLES FORUM

The legislature in session at
Olympia has up for consideration
very important educational legis-
lation contained in senate bill
number 10 and introdced by Sen
ator Sutton of Spokane. This bill
is designed to rcorganTZc every
rural school in the state of Wash
ngton employing less than %
teachers.
At the special session Of the
legislature held a year ago emer-
gency financial legislation was
passed based on the 20-l0 plan,
which means the state is lcvying
sufficient tax to raise 500 for each
child in the state and each county
levics sufficient to raise SO for
each child in the county. This
was an increase Of $40 for the
state. 1t was felt at that time
that some fundamental changes
| in the organization Of the rural
schools should be made. AS a
result of a resolution passed by
the legislature in March, 1920,
Governor Hart appointed a public
school administrative code com
mission made up of the following

Ghost Runs SeWinu Machine.

They say that headIess horScmen
used to ride through England and that
hounds even now fly above the rain
drenchcd mountain tops of Ireland;
but 1t Is undermining ghosts to bring
n phantom sewing machine into the
circle of the supernatural. Scientists,
philosophers and spiritualists of Port
ugal are trying to explain the origin
of strange sound first heard three
months ago in a house in Oporto. The
sound occurred at midnight and those
who heard 1t, believe that 1t Is caused
by the soul of n seamStress, doomed
to haunt the world to eNpiatc sin.
The opinion here will rather be that
one of the enterprising agents for n
sewing machine company is seeking
free publicity.

FERTILE EGGS FOR MATCHING
Maximum Fertility Not Likely to Be
Obtained Before Two Weeks
After Mating Fowls.

Matings should be made at least
two weeks before beginning to save
the eggs for Matching. If less time
Is allowed, the maximum fertility is
not likely to be obtained. 1t is often
desirable to mate even further ahead
than two weeks so that few eggs
can be incubated for five or six days
to see whether they are fertile. If
these eggs are not fertile, there is
still time to change the male bird
and thus be sure of fertile eggs for
the earlier matches,

A LESSON IN POLITICAL ECONOMY

The farmer who recently ex-
planned why he needed to. borrow
money in spite of the fact that he
had Just sold his corn NAV not
have used standard English pro
nunciation in his discourse to the
banker, but even the keeper of the
strong box had to admit that the
message was perfectly clear
He said it was de ducks
which ate up the money which the
corn should have yielded. This
of course was unintelligible to the
banker. who like the rest of us
did not believe that ducks eat
money. He didn't even under
stand how the farmers ducks
could eat the corn which the
farmer had really sold and ship
ped, out of the reach of the ducks.
But the explanation left no
room for. further doubts. On the
market it seems the.co was sold
for 50 cents bushel. But" the
farmer said, they de duck the

OWE EXPRESSION TO INDIANS
To the Custom of "Potlateh" May Be
Traced the Term often Heard,
"lndian Giver."

The expression, Indian giyer," Is
used in allusion to the fact that an
Indian expects an equivalent for
gift, or its return. The term Indian
giver" probably originated from the
Indian custom of potlatch, an American
Indian word signifying a gift. which
is used among the American Indians
of the northwest coast. 1t also signl-
fies a feast in which rich person
gives away the most of his goods 10
members of his tribe, as the evidence
of his greatness a custom among In
dians from Puget sound to south Alas
ka. Among these Indians giving is
regarded as kind of ordeal. and the
recipient, is expected to respond with
Interest. Among the. Kawakiuti he
must pay it back at the rate of 100
per cent. The unit is, the blanket and
this custom is helpful, to the young
