tracts like. While a mans mind is
saturated with the poverty thought, the
poverty expectation, while he continues to
visualize poverty conditions, he can't at
tract anything but poverty.
If you draw steel magnet through
lot of rubbish it will pull to itself the tacks
and nails, the bits of steel, in whatever
form, that may be there, but it will pull
nothing else; no paper, rags or other sub
stances. In other words, it will attract to
itself only that which has an affinity for it.
What you get out of life depends upon
what you can attract with your mental
magnet; upon how much of magnet you
make yourself for the thing you long to be
or the thing you long to possess.
Just keep the idea constantly before your
mind that you are powerful magnet,
enveloped by the great creative energy of
the universe from which all things pro-
lceed, attracting to yourself the things
which belong to you by virtue of your
affinity to them; the things which match
your thoughts, your motives, your am
Z bitions, your desires, the longings of your
soul. No matter how discouraging your
environment, how distressing your condi-
ton, if you hold fast to this one idea you
will be surprised how soon these things
will begin to come your way.
There is no surer way of making and
holding yourself a prosperity magnet than
by cultivating the consciousness of your
oneness with the Source of all Prosperity,
the Source of All-Suppy. When the
pessimistic poverty thought tries to get
hold of you, think of the abundance that
is your Fathers; think that you are heir
to this abundance, and say to yourself,
"The Lord is my Shepherd, and cannot
wants Hold that thought constantly in
your mind and fear, doubt, worry, anxiety
as to the living problem, or your future,
can never again disturb your peace of

SEWING WOOD

There has appeared in this country re-
Gently special plywood material for air
craft construction.
This new material must not be confused
with ordinary plywood, which is gifted to-
gether. 1t is claimed to be super-ply-
wood, and is actually sewn together!
First, the layers are cemented together
with waterproof material, and then stitched
through in parallel rows about one and a
quarter inches apart. This gives rigid
ity and residence not to be attained by
any other method.
Weight for weight, it is the strongest
material yet invented. 1t is made in
sheets of any size or shape UP to eight
feet wide by 80 feet long and from one
eighth of an inch to fve-eighths of an
inch thick; thus doing away with waste

HEAVY EGG PRODUCING HENS
By a Fancier

You. have all heard of the heavy pro-
ducing hen, and have seen ads in poultry
papers for eggs from this kind of stock
Perhaps some of you have at sometime
ordered eggs from poultry men and speci-
fed that the eggs were to come from hens
having an egg laying record of ESQ to
800 eggs.
The poultryman asked fancy price for
these eggs, not because they were worth
it, but because he knew there were lot
of fools who were willing to pay the price
he asked.
When you received the eggs you gave
them the best of care, but you found them
weak in fertility, and the chicks you were
able to get out of the shell were weak and
ill-shapen birds. You were very much
dissatisfied. No doubt you had thought
they all would be show birds or at least
fancy layers.
If you were asked to pick a baby with
a chance to win at baby show would
you go in the home where the father and
mother in their early life practiced dissi-
patton or would you go to the home where
virtue had been priced? There is no
doubt in my mind as to how you would
answer this question.
1t is the same with poultry. If you
want prize winning stock or stock that has
the necessary vitality to produce eggs you
must not get it from hens that have been
crowded. A hen has only so much vitality
to put into eggs If this vitality is i'm
parted to 200 eggs all well and good, but
when you try to spread this out through
500 eggs nature balks and you get infertile
eggs and runty chicks.
Remember this-care, fresh air and feed
are what hen must have to produce eggs,
and if you select good strong healthy birds
that have the type for egg production you
will have better chance to crowd them
for eggs.
Don't make the mistake of paying a
fancy price for eggs, but know the type
of your birds. Two years ago we had on
our farm, two pens of birds, one pen was
advertised with an egg record and we
were oversold from this pen. wrote to
several customers and explained the situa
ton and told them we could supply eggs
from another pen for less money and
guarantee that the stock in the second
pen, bird for bird, were full brothers and
sisters to the birds in the other pen, but in
nine cases out of ten they were determined
to have the stock from the heavy layers
and would not look at the cheaper eggs.
As / said before this second pen was
made up of birds, full brothers and sisters,
to the birds from which we were getting
the high priced eggs, and, as a matter of
fact, we sold all the eggs from the high
producers and hatched our stock from the
hens that were not crowded. Last year
the people who paid for the fancy priced
eggs bought their stock from the offsprings
\ of the cheaper pen, because last year they
were the ones we could crowd for eggs,
having had the vitality to stand it.

ton, despite the fact that "Mr. Jinx"
played havoc with the team during the
mid-season games. However, the weather.
man" after giving us dark annd gloomy
aspect in the opening of the season, caused
two games with South St. Paul to be post
poned, prior to the date of May 21st
which was the opening date with South
Saltwater as the locals opponents. This
game resulted in tie, the score standing
to at the end of the ninth inning.
VOL did the twirling for the locals on this
memorial day, while Bur was at the re-
ceiving end. ,Wol made record in the
initial game that was never topped by
any of the local pitchers during the sea-
sen. He struck out sixteen men and al
lowed only four safeties.
Then on June 4th this same South Still
water team came back to even up the
score but they did not reckon on who they
were to face in the box. Thorn, new
recruit, was selected to show his wares
and the goods he produced was highly
commended by all, for he pitched shut
out game, getting sixteen strikeouts and
allowing only four hits, while his team
mates got busy and clouted out 10 to
victory. Thorn accomplished practically
the same features in this game as VOL
did in the former
During the season there were twenty-six
games scheduled here with outside PLAYERS
and twenty-five of them were pulled off as
per schedule. Only once did the visiting
scheduled team disappoint us and that was
with the South St. Paul team on Septem-
Der 10th. This being the last day of the
Minnesota State Fair, it was no doubt, un-
thinkable, that this team could make the
trip intact Nevertheless, we were not de-
prived of a game on this datr;- for a
hurriedly picked aggregation from South
Saltwater gave the locals real run for
their money!
Every game has been witnessed by our
scribe and duly recorded but one. The
game that was played on September 18th
with the ST. Paul All Stars managed to
slip by his observation. However, we can
truthfully state that it was an. exciting
game from start to finish The visitors
were leading up to the, seventh round by
score of to 4. Then with two men on
bases and two men out, Bur walloped out
home run, tieing the score And in the
last frame the locals nosed out a victory
by an 8 to count.
Along in the middle of July the local
team had batting average Of .345 per
cent. But during the games that followed,
some of the leading batters got into bat
ting slump, the results causing several de-
feats in succession. At that time, Iver
was batting up near the 500 mark and
was in second place. All at once he
seemed to go hitless, with the result of
dropping to fifth place at the close of the
season. Hic, who played with the locals
last season, did not join their ranks this
year until July 9th and since then he has
led the list all the way with batting
honors. Bur leads the team in clouting
out hits for extra bases while Bon holds
the honors for the second division.
Watch for next weeks issue it will con-
tain the fielding percentages, And then
last but not least of all, will appear the
pitching percentages in due season.
