PRESIDENT HAS SPECIAL FLAG
Nation Upon Man Who ls Its
Chief Executive.

One Of the hOnors bestowed upon
the President Of the United States is
a special flag. This flag is not seen
frequently. 1t does not float over
the White House. Its use is reserved
for the most part for occasions when
the President appears in his ex-oficio
function as commander In chief of
the army and navy.
The Presidents flag consists Of the
coat-of-arms as they appear on the
Presidents seal, against blue back
ground and fianked by four stars. Its
history and use are described In the
monograph on "Flags of the World"
of the National Geographic society as
follows:
"When the President visits a yes-
sci Of the United States. the Presi-
dents flag Is broken at the main the
moment he reaches the deck AID Is
kept flying as long as he is on board.
If the vessel can do so, a national
salute OF 21 guns is fired as soon as
possible after hiss arrival on board.
"Upon departure another salute Of
21 guns is fired, the Presidents flag
lowered with the last gun of the sa-
Lutte"

Ronald Young was bored. He had
been at the Lakelands summer hotel
for three days, and had exhausted the
much-advertised pleasures Of that re-
sort on the evening Of the second
twenty-four hours. He had tried the
golf course, to discover that 1t was

extent; there was no one, apparently,
who cared to play tennis; there were
plenty Of places to ride, but no horses,
and the swimming, despite the fam
ooyant title Of the hotel, was neg
ligible.
Hence the ennui Of Ronald Young.
He sat in the lobby, which was main
ly peopled by elderly women and fret
ful children, and wished that he had
never decided to come to Lakelands
for his vacation.
AS his pessimistic gaze rOved over
the rocking chairs and potted green
cry of the lobby it was arrested by the
sight Of girl-a remarkably pretty
girl-who was wandering about with
a peculiarly vacant look on her face.
Her eyes roved this way and that,
on the floor, the many chairs, the
green pots, even the children. From
time to time she approached one Of
the tenants Of the rocking chairs and
put question, to which, apparently,
she received always a negative reply,
fer her air of bewilderment deepened
and the little wrinkle Of worry be-
tween her eyebrows grew in intensity.
Ronald watched her with interest

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Chicken hens and incubatOrs can be
and often are used successfully for
Matching turkey eggs, but the surest
means, United States Department of
Agriculture poultry specialists say, is
to use the turkey hen and give her
proper management. Turkey hens are
close sitters and will cover, SO there
will be no danger Of chilling, from Is
to 1S eggs, depending Oh the size Of
the hen.
Nests for setting TURKEY and chick
en- hens are best made on the ground
by following out little earth, SO that
the center is deep enough to keep the
eggs from rolling out of the nest. A
thin covering Of clean straw or hay
can then be used to prevent the eggs
from being directly on the ground,
and a large, roOmy coop should be
placed over the nest to keep the hen
from being disturbed. When a num-
ber of hens are to be set. long row
Of nests can easily be made on the
ground, separating them with board
partitions. If this is done care must
be taken to see that when the hens
come off the nests each returns to the
right one instead of crowding into a
nest with another hen and leaving
some Of the eggs to become chilled.
With only few hens ii is better to
set them some distance apart, as they
will then require less attention.
When a Hens In Earnest.
When hen becomes broody and
shows that she is earnest by remain
ing on her nest for two or three
nights, she may safely be trusted with
the eggs, provided she is allowed to
sit in that nest. If she Is to be set In
another nest, as Is usually the case,
then she should be removed to the
new nest, preferably after dark, given
few nest eggs, and shut In to pre-
vent her from returning to the old
one. If she sits quietly on the nest
eggs she should be taken off on the
evening Of the following day, and the
eggs to be incubated placed in the
nest. On being freed, she probably
will return to her old nest; If so, she
should be carried back and set quiet

HOW Can YOU TELL your
FAv0RITE TOBACCO?
As Plain as the Nose on Your
ace-Just Smell II

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out il they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms of their hands and smell it.
The nose is an infallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment.
All smoking tobaccos employ some
favoring Ito improve the favour and
burning qualities OF the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopaedia Britannica.
Naturally, there is considerable differ
ence in the kind Of flavorings used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious Of all
favorings-chocolate. And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity of TUXEDO Tobacco.
Carefully aged, old Burley tobacco,
plus a dash Of pure chocolate, gives
TUXEDO Tobacco a pure fragrance

any other tobacco. Try it and see.

Off she returns to the new nest rather
than to the old one. 1t sometimes
takes only two or three days, and sell
dom more than week, to break Il
hen from returning to her old nest.
Turkey hens do not ordinarily come
off for feed and water more than once
every two or three days, but when
confined they should have a chance to
come off every day. Occasionally u
turkey hen does not come off at all,
and In such case she should be taken
off once a day, as otherwise she will
die on the nest.
On coming off her nest the first
thing turkey hen does Is to stretch
her wings, step gingerly for few
steps, and then she often takes a
running start and flies for short dis
tance. Exercise Of this sort helps
greatly to keep sitting hen in good
condition, and for this reason It Is not
well to confine her to small space
A dust bath Is greatly enjoyed by sit
ting hens, and helps to keep them
free from vermin. Whole corn Is
good feed, and fresh water and grit
should always be accessible.
Lice are a great annoyance to sit
ting hens, and are one Of the worst
enemies of young poults. To prevent
their getting a start. the hen should
be busted thoroughly with sodium
fluoride or some good lice powder be-
fore she is placed on the nest. The
nesting material should be kept clean,
and II the eggs become dirty they
should be washed with soft cloth
dipped in lukewam water. Just be.

nesting material should be replaced

Matching eggs is the proper mating
and selection of breeding stock. This
step in the process should be accom-
plished early in the year but it is
not too late to eliminate hens from
the Matching flock that do not have
strong, vigorous constitutions and
every sign of health and strength.It
is particularly important to keep
watch on the breeding males as the
season advances. In some cases it
may be necessary to change males re-
placing weak individuals with strong
er and more vigorous ones.
1t is poor economy, and in fact no
economy at all, to save Matching
eggs from more limited number of
birds of good quality. Aim to i'm
prove quality, rather than quantity
for quantity of poor quality will not
bring the results expected.
Every egg for Matching should be
of good size and normal shape. Small
eggs will produce small chicks. The
holding of eggs beyond certain time
tends to weaken the vitality of the
germ and retards its development
For the best and most efficient hatch
| ing eggs should not be over two
weeks of age when placed under the
hen or in the incubator.

Decrease in Price
of Farm Lands

The average price of plowland per
acre in the United States decreased
about per cent during the past year,
according to report just issued by
the United States Department of
Agriculture. The average value of
plow1and per acre on March of
this year was 1878 as compared to
$1,000 in 1920 and $74.31 in 1919.
The statisticians of the department
attribute the decline to the reduction
in the prices of crops.
The report shows that the heav-
lest drop in the price of land is in
the Southern States where cotton is
the principal crop. In some sec
tons of these States there has Zeen
decline of 80 per cent in the price
of plowland during the year. The
average price of plowland in Georgia
this year is $50 per acre, while last
year it was $46-a drop of about
% per cent. The average in South
Carolina last year was SCI while this
year it is $3.50 drop of go per
cent.
Probably the greatest drop in any
one State was in Kentucky and is
attributed to the decline in the price
of tobacco. In 1920, the average
price of plowland in this state was
$40 per acre, while this year it is
$50. This is a decline of approx.
mately "a per cent.
Iowa is the state having the high
est price of plowland per acre. The

Farm Accounting

Farm bookkeeping is an essential
to efficient far management. Ac-
counts must be kept in order that the
farmer determine the relative value
of various crops, the size of crop
yields, the quality and quantity Of
livestock for a farm of given size,
the size of the farm business as a
whole, and the farm layout, and the
use of labor-all factors vitality affect
ing farm efficiency. Many Tennes-
see farmers are now keeping books
and they are findig that it pays.

report shows that it is valued at 5000
this year, as compared with $219
last year-a decline of about 8 per
cent. Illinois ranks second in the
value of plowland according to the
report, the price per acre being
$157. In Alabama and Mississippi
the average price of plowland per
acre is $26.
The Western States show the least
decline in prices of land and in the
case of California, Oregon and Colo
RADIO there is slight increase over
last year. Plowland in California
was valued at $3.50 per acre last
year, while this year the average is
$135.
The report shows that there was a
rapid increase in the price of land
from 1917 to 1920 when the highest
price was reached. The decline
during the past year is not as great
as the increase from 1919 to 1920.
Land prices are still higher than any
year preceding 1920.

How to Hatch More and Bette
Chicks

One of the first points of consider

chicks lies in the quality of the
Matching eggs that are used, say spe-

Strong, vigorous, livable chicks can
not be secured from poorly produc
ed and poorly selected Matching eggs
and poultry producers should exer-
