wilderness Of Indiana. Shortly
there followed Jesuit missionar-

trail came adventurous rangers
and fur traders. French forts
and trading posts were soon es-
tablished. In 1853 the British
took possession of this territory
after the French and Indian
wars, and remained in posses

One of the boldest campaigns
of the Revolution was that. of

rison at Vincennes and won the
Northwest territory for Virginia.
Pioneers from the East and from
Kentucky made their way into
this new territory, and among
these was Abraham Lincoln's
family. 1t was in 1915, the year
that Indiana became the nine
tenth state, that Lincoln at
tanned citizenship in Indiana.
With the increase in population
by 1906 Indiana Territory was
formed, extending from the Ohio
border west to the Mississippi
and north to Canada. Vincennes
was selected as the first capital.
In 1904, when the Louisiana Pur-
chase was made, the government
Of Louisiana was placed in the

capital of Louisiana was also

UNIFORM PRODUCTS FAVORED

Without uniform standards for farm
produce there is no recognized basis
for the business of buying and selling.
says the bureau of markets, United
States Department of Agriculture.
standardization of products gives
seller and purchaser a common Ian
guage and set quality upon which
prices may ne compared and fixed. Ex-
perience has shown that the products
which are sold by grade find better
market, bring letter prices, and can be
handled at less expense than thOSaSOld
without reference to standards. Stand
ards have already been fixed for many
farm commodities. such as American
Upland cotton, shelled corn, wheat,
oats, and for small fruit containers.
These Federal standards apply only
when the product is intended for in

WHITE ANTS lNJURE TIMBERS
Insects Enter Wood Wherever 1t Comes
in Contact With Damp Earth
and Eat Into Beams.

Winged white ants are often OBJ
served flying about houses in spring.
and are sometimes supposed to have
come in from outside The bureau of
entomology Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture explains that
these winged insects really are Matched
inside the buildings, and usually are
to be taken as indicating nests of
wingless white ants working destruc-
ton in the timbers.
These insects, which really are not
properly ants, enter the wood wher-
ever it comes in contact with damp
earth, and often eat into the center Of
an upright beam without manifesting
their presence on the outside until the
wood is entirely ruined, and possibly
a settling and cracking of the build
ing has resulted.
The department urges that build
ings be constructed with such founda-
lions that no wood touches the ground,
or if it is necessary to use wood, that
it be impregnated with tar creOsote.
Concrete floors should be laid on a
gravel base TO prevent dampness and
cracking, and where cracks occur they
should be promptly filed.

ana they may have been broOded care
fully for the first two or three weeks,
but unless they receive proper care
and management during their later
growing period they will not develop
properly, and many of them will be
lost by sickness and disease. This is
the timely warning made by poultry
men of the United States Depart

Suitable Food and Care.
The chief essentials to the proper
growth of chicks, according to the bull
letin, are good coops, or houses, clean
illness, proper feed and water, shade
and free range. Growing chicks
should be provided with large, roomy
cOops or houses, which will give them
comfortable place to stay at night
and during stormy weather. The bull
letin suggests no particular kind of
house. but states it should be so built
that it will provide the chicks with

plenty of light, pure air and sunshine,
and protect them from dampness and
storms of all kinds.
Chicks should never be crowded in
brood coops, for crowding will cause
them TO become overheated, resulting
in improper growth and sometimes in
dead chicks.
Sickness or disease usually starts
in unclean quarters, and in such
places lice and mites are always more
plentiful, the bulletin says. The cOOps
should be cleaned and sprayed once
week, and clean shavings, chaff, or
sand put on the floor. Examine the
chicks and houses often for lice and
mites, and if found they should be
gotten rid of at once. Farmers Bull
letin 111G gives directions for fighting
lice and mites.
Feed Right fer Rapid Growth.
The three kinds of feeds most nee
esSary for rapid growth are grain
feed. green feed and dry mash \
grain mixture should be fed night and
morning. giving as large a quantity as
the chicks will eat clean, but no more.
A good mixture for growing chicks
consists OF three parts cracked corn,
two parts wheat and two parts hulled
oats. Kafir corn or rolled or hulled
barley may be substituted for hulled
oats. supply of fresh green feed is

be kept before the chicks. as no feed
