POULTRY
CACKLES
RIGHT FOWLS FOR BREEDING
Hens Are Preferable to PuIlets as
They Lay Larger Egs+Free
Range Is Favored.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
If cockerels or pullets are used in
the breeding flock they should be well
matured, poultry specialists in the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture advise. Hens are better than
pullets. They lay larger eggs, which
produce stronger chicks. Yearling
and ~two-year-old hens are better than
older ones. Pullets used as breeders
should be mated with a cock rather
than with a cockerel. If a cockerel
is used he should be mated with hens
rather than with pullets. AS "A rule,
well-matured cockerels will give bet
ter fertility than cocks.
When possible, free range should
be provided for the breeding. stock.
1t is better to provide it during the
entire fall and winter before the
breeding season, but, If this is not
possible, free range just preceding
and during the breeding season will
be of great value. Birds on free

hearts. For utility capes and for

pear to have put designers under a
spell and in silk they invade the
realm of capes for dress. One of these
appears at the right of the picture,

velopment of the cape and the usual
fringe trimming.
But for dressy capes nothing rivals
crepe-de-chine and all its sister crepes.
There r many of them. too many
to remember the various trade names
that have been given them, and they
make glorious wraps. Fringe Is the
favorite trimming for them, but ap-
plique motifs made of the material
are ingeniously used on those with
the smoother surfaces and these are
wonderfully effective In crepe-de-chine.
Many of these crepes reveal two colors

range will get more exercise and,
therefore, will be in better health and
will give higher fertility, better hatch
es, and stronger chicks.
The breeding flock needs careful
supervision to make sure that the
fowls keep in good breeding condi-
tion. The birds and the houses should
be examined often to see that they are
not infested with lice or mites. Either

breeding male should be examined &C.
%casionally after feeding to see that his
crop is full and that he is not grow

hens to eat all the feed, with the re-
suit that they get out of condition.
II this happens the male must be fed

Provide the breeding stock with
comfortable quarters. The house
must be draft proof, yet well venti-
lated and dry. The birds should not
be crowded. If the birds are yarded,
4 square feet of floor space per bird
should be allowed, but on free range
from 3 to 3k square feet per bird will
be enough.
The breeders must be fed so as to
keep them In such condition that they
will produce eggs. Any good laying
ration is suitable for this purpose.
Beef scrap should not run above 10 or
10 per cent of the total ration. The
birds should be kept in good flesh but
should not be allowed to become ex-
cessively fat. All whole or cracked
grain should be fed in litter. This

African and Asiatie Elephants.

Many persons have, no doubt, won
dered why the African elephant,
though quite as intelligent as the IN
dian or Asiatic animal, is less often
found with clrcuses and at geological
parks. The reason is one which may
be easily explained: The African ele-
plant, 1t has been found, Is less doclle
in captivity than the Asiatic elephant ;
his surroundings seem to have more
effect upon his disposition. Then, too,
his tastes are different from those of
his cousin, the Aslatic elephant. Used
to the 1ungles, where he roamed ut
will, crossing the forests and fording
the rivers. he is not at all content with
his enforced captivity. Although all
this Is generally true Of tie African
elephant. yet Jumbo" long the great
pet Of Barnum and Bailey's circus, was

came from the widest part OF Africa.
Yet "Jumbo" never caused any trouble

WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and

Women's complaints often prove to be

result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
