CITY PLANNING in Schools.

1--WE have city planning courses in
all Of the Schools" D. d. PinkertOn,
president of the Kansas City board of
education says. I'VE call them courses
in civics. These courses deal with every
phase Of civil government and espe-
cial attention is given to civic beauty.
Even young children are given in
structiOn in civics. In the lower
grades we use a primer which covers
all the activities of q city in a COM
prehensive way. "A good example
of this type Of primer is the one used
by Walter Gidinghagen, principal Of
Humboldt school,"
In this primer these are some of the
questions asked:
Is your neighborhood supplied with
beautiful lawns and flower beds?
Are the alleys and yards kept clean
Do the children take pride in keep
ing the school yard clean?
How does the improvement of your
property help the neighbOrhoOd?
What conditions IN your neighbor-
hood might be improved?

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Many hotels and restaurants in the
large cities are eager to secure prime
young guineas, and they are often
served at banQuets and club dinners
as a special delicacy. When well
cooked, guineas are attractive in ap-
pearance, although darker than COM
mon fowls. The flesh Of young birds
is tender and of especially fine
flavor, resembling that of wild game.
Like all other fowl, old guineas are
very likely to be tough and rather
dry.
A few of the large poultry raisers,
particularly those who are within easy
reach Of the large Eastern markets,
make practice of raising q hundred
or so guineas each year, but the great
majority of guineas are raised in small

ECONOMIC VALUE OF BEAUTY
Good Points Made by Governor Lake
Of Connecticut in Arbor and
Bird Day Proclamation.

Governor Lake of Connecticut In his
proclamation appointing Arbor and
Bird day made some excellent points.
He recommended that all citizens, but
particularly the teachers and pupils
in schools, observe the day and added :
LET the pupils Of our schools DE
taught that the planting and care of
shade trees, the protection of birds and
their eggs, Is not only an economic
measure, but contributes to the beauty
of our state and the enjoyment Of our
homes. I further recommend the for
nation Of town and village improve
ment associations to encourage tree
planting and bird protection and to
exercise interested care over matters
relating to the scenic beauty Of our
towns and cities. Well-kept roads
streets and lawns enhance the value
Of property and promote the general
welfare of towns and villages"
Observe especially the last sentence ::
''Well-kept roads, streets and lawns
enhance the value of property and
promote the general welfare of towns
and villages"
Here is official recognition of the
economic value of beauty. Common
experience shows that Governor Lake
is right. If every community continues
it's cleanup until every lawn is we'll

painted. won't the tendency be to in

CALOMEL LOSING
OUT IN SOUTH
Mr.. Dodson, the oliver Tone"
Man. Responsible for Change
for the Better.

Every druggist in town has noticed
great falling off in the sale Of calomel.
They all give the same reason. DOd-
sons Liver Tone is taking it's place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know It," Dodson's Liver Tone is per-
sonally guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle doesn't
cost very much, but II it fails to give
easy relief in every case Of liver slug
gishness and constipation, just ask for
your money back.
DOdson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy, harm
less to both children and adults. Take
spoonful at night and wake up feel
ing fine; no biliousness, sick headache,
acid stomach or constipated bowels.
It doesn't grippe or cause inconvenience
all the next day like violent calOmel.
Take a dose Of calomel today and to-
morrow you will feel weak, sick and
uauseated. Don't lose day.

with white and is so handsome that
frequently the feathers are used for
ornamental purposes.
Guinea hens usually begin laying in
April or May, those in the South laying
earlier than those in the North. A
short time before the opening of the
laying period the hens with their
mates begin searching for suitable
nesting places among the weeds and
brush along the fences or In the fields.
In this search the male takes as ac-
tive an interest as his mate. and when
suitable location is found both help
to dig out the nest and make 1t into
suitable shape.
Each day as the hen goes to the nest
to lay the male accompanies her and
remains nearby until she comes off.
Should anyone approach he shrieks in
warning and thus betrays the where
abOuts of the nest, which might other
wise be difficult to locate. If several
guinea hens are mated with one male
they usually all lay in the same nest,
but sometimes hen after mating will
wander off by herself to make her own
nest. At times male bird, after help
ing one hen to make her nest, will
then desert her and pair off with an
other hen to make another nest.
From 20 to 80. and often more, eggs
are laid before the guinea hen becomes
broody, at which time she can be easily
broken Of her broodiness by removing
the eggs from her nest, when she will
soon begin laying again. If not al
lowed to sit, guinea hens will continue
to lay throughout the summer, laying
from 40 to 60 and in some cases 100
eggs during the season, say poultry
specialists of United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.
Ordinary hens are used, commonly,
to 1ncubate guinea eggs, but guinea
hens, turkey. hens, and incubators also
can be employed successfully. The
usual setting for a guinea hen is about
II eggs; for hen of the general pur"
pose breeds, such as a Plymouth Rock,
10 eggs; and for turkey hen, about
"a eggs. The incubation period for
guinea eggs is % days, although fire.
quently they start Matching on the Goth
day and are all Matched by the end Of
the 9th day.
If the nest In which the guinea hen
becomes broody is safe from any dis
turbance, she may be trusted with
setting of eggs, and more than likely
will hatch out every egg that is fer
tile, provided all hatch at about the
same time. AS soon as the guinea
chicks begin to leave the nest the hen
will leave with them, and any eggs
that are late in Matching are ruined
unless they are placed in an incubator
or under broOdy hen before they be-
come chilled.
