POULTRY PIcKuPs

Eggs have gone down with every
thing else. That was to be expected.
Things looked blue for good many
for while. Still, few men here
and there made money out Of their
hens, even when things were at their
worst.
But these successful men were the
ones that did not think os say:
Hens don't pay; I'll let mine shift
for themselves" The hen that
rustles for herself Is not doing much
rustling for you.
Many farmers have the matter OF
costs In poultry keeping down to a
bedrock basis. Now, let's all turn in
and work for better markets and
more prompt transportation.

Irish Conference Expected to
Break Down Almost Immc.
diatcly as Result Of Eng. |,
lish Demands.
Sim Fem Reject Plan

London, Nov. 30.-Govcrnmcnt
circles today expressed belief that
the Irish conference would break
down almost Immediately as re-
suit of the difficulties which have
arisen and that the resumption OF
armed hostilties could not be post
poned.
The alternative settlement plans
submitted by the government to the
Sim Fein representatives last evcn-
ing included the necessity for def
mite undertaking by the Sim Fein
to take the oath OF allegiance to the
crown.
Many Objections.
The Sim Fein has many objcc-
tons to the governments new plan,
but even if it agreed to discuss this
plan 1t will not now give its assent
to the oath of allegiance proviso, it
is stated. f.
Thus it appears, according to gov
ernnlent officials, that the break in
the negotiations, if it comes, as now
feared, will take place over the allc-
glance issue.
There has been hope OF prolonging
the truce and adjourning the nego-
tiations for an additional period of
two months, but this hope now has
rcceded.
Rush for Guns.
The moment breach occurs il is
believed in these quarters that there
would be imminent danger of the
Sim Fein on the one side and the
police auxiliaries on the other, try
ing to get to their guns first.
The military, it is indicated, would
be put in charge of affairs in Ireland
and interference by civilian officials
with its action would not be per-
mitted.
A meeting of the British rep
resentatives in the Irish conference
was held today. 1t was presided
over by Prime Minister Lloyd
George.
