To License Tobacco Dealers.

Boise, Idaho.-Idaho's second
anti-tobacco law passed the senate
of the sixteenth Legislature last
Friday by vote of n to Io. 1t
places certain restrictions on
dealers by requiring them to obtain
a license to sell cigarettes or
tobacco and repeals Harding's law,
which the governor had just signed,
prohibiting the sale or importation
for sale of cigarettes or the ''com
pounds used in the make up or
filling of cigarettes.
Under the terms of the measure
passed Friday all dealers will be
required to pay license fee of $50
and deposit bond of $500 with
the commissioner of law enforce
ment. Violations of the terms Of
the tobacco law by sale to
minors will be punishable
by fine of from 500 to $500 or
Imprisonment in the county Jail for
six months or both. n addition to
the fine the violator upon convic-
tion will forfeit his license and
$500 bond.
Governor Davis said Monday
that he would sign the new bill.
The new law amends Sections
8362 and 1868 of the Compiled
Statutes of Idaho, and prohibits
"the use of cigarettes, cigars or
tobacco in any form by minors;
prohibiting all minors from
frequenting any premises for the
purpose of indulging in the use of
tobacco, and making it misde
meanor for any person who owns
or manages such premises 40
permit the same to be used for
such purposes, etc.
By vote of more: than two to
one, the house of representatives
Saturday voted to pass the bill
The ballot showed SO for and 13
against.
The new bill permits that
tobacco in all IFS forms may be sold
in Idaho, but, the penalty tor VIC
lation of the law is SO severe that
many Legislators think dealers will
be careful to whom they sell.
Strong opposition was registered
against the bill but it was brought
out that the measure was a COM
promise and as the hours of the
session were drawing 10 a close no
could be made. The
consensus of opinion was that 1t
would be satisfactory for two years
and much better law could be
passed in 1923.

DRASTIC SENTENCES IMPOSED
Judge McElroy at Recent Session OF
IredeII County Court, gave Liquor
Dealers and Makers a Bad Time.

Statesville.-n changing sentences
prove effective in dealing with the
violators of the liquor laws, Judge P.
A. McElroy made a long stride for
ward in the matter of the annihila-
ton of the liquor traffic in 1redell
county. There were a large number
of men convicted of the illicit bust
ness, some of whom plead guilty.
When the criminal docket was COM
pleted, all filed into the court roo11 to
receive their sentences.
Some of the defendants. had large
families that were entirely dependent
upon them for the necessities of life:
others were shown to be afflicted with
various diseases and ailments that
rendered them unable to perform
hard physical labor. Attorneys for
the defendants made earnest, eloquent
and often very tender and touching
appeals in behalf of their clients, but
the presiding officer gave them, with
only one exception, sentences on the
changing. Those who were proven
to have been diseased were given SEN
fences on the roads at 'such labor as
they are physically able to perform. )"
The Judge stated that reasonable work
in the open air would not likely be in
furious to the health of the afflicted
ones.

they get plenty Of mash. It is a help
to keep it in hOppers, where they can
have free access to it. A light feed
ing If moist mash, especially if mixed
with milk, may induce them to eat
a little more. If % per cent of buck
wheat middlings is added to the allot-
ment of mash to be moistened with
milk or water it will be eaten eagerly
by the puIiets. A liberal amount Of
meat scrap in the mash is advisable
at this time, particularly If plenty of
milk is not available.
Corn, wheat, oats and barley are
the principal grains fed. Kaffir and
buckwheat also are used, but are not
so generally available, and usually
cost more. Corn and wheat are the
two best grains and are about equal
in value, although wheat can be fed
alone better than corn, which is in
clined to be fattening. Oats and bar
ley, OH account of their hulls and high
er fiber content, are not so good as
corn Or wheat. Rye is not we'll rel
ished, and is seldom fed.
Corn meal, wheat bran, wheat mid
dlings. and meat scrap form the basis
of a good mash, While corn chop, corn
and-cob meal, ground oats, and low
grade flour may be added or substi-
tuted to advantage.

POULTRY
CACKLES
BEST RETURNS FROM PULLETS
Maturity Can Be fastened by Right
Kind Of Care and Feeding-Range
Desirable.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture)
A flock of pullets that can be
brought to laying in the fall will give
the largest yearly profit. The average
poultry keeper fails either to hatch
early enough in spring, so that the pull
lets may reach laying maturity in Oc-
tober, or he does not keep them grow
ing rapidly enough to bring this about.
Pullets that do not get to laying well
before the arrival of cold weather and
the short days of December, will sell
dom start egg production before Feb
ruary. Thus two or three months OF
additional feeding are required, and
the advantage of this period of high
est egg prices is lost.
Very few eggs are secured On the
average farm during autumn and early
winter, but experienced pOultrymen by
better management secure a fair. egg
production during these seasons. 1t
is advisable, though not essential, that
the cockerels and pullets be separated
as early as possible and given sepa-
rate free range.
Avoid overcrOwding Mt night. A coop
that will hold 100 young chickens will
not house properly more than ~half as
many growing pullets. Their maturity
will be retarded If too many are kept
together, or if they are annoyed by
lice or mites. Frequent inspection OF
the houses, especially after the pull
let's have gone to roOst, is advisable.
f mites are seen crawling on the
perches or are found by careful in
5pection of the house, prompt meas
ures must be taken to kill them by
spraying the interior of the house, as
advised by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, with crude 'pe-
troleum, kerosene. cresol solution, cat
tie dip, or some other effective sOlu-
ton. Body lice frequently cause much
annoyance and retard growth and ma
turity. Individual treatment of each
pullet with sodium f1uOrid or mercurial
ointment will clean up these pests on
the birds themselves.
Feed freely of a good egg-laying ra-
ton; give plenty Of range. and be sure
