Gramont choked back any response,

say too much. He saw that Fell

and that he must strike his own blow
at Fell without great delay. 1t was a
battle. now fight to the end.

conditions, particularly when clear

asleep. In rainy weather it served as
an umbrella. The brim, when grasped
between the thumb and fingers and
bent into trough. was on it's upper
surface the only drnking-cup of the
outdoors: when pulled down and tied
over the ears, it gave complete pro-
lection from frost-bite. 1t famed in

to the face Of history by formally dcs-
'ignating the dented high DcIh as the

Around the crown, Just above the

which was adjustable as to length The
belt was made usually Of leather. but

TWO DOG STORIES

Down at the barber shop a few
mornings ago, a group of fruit grow
ers were giving opinions on how many
holes for fruit trees constituted a
days work. The number ranged from
800 to 400. After listening until each
one had had his say, Tom Hance stat
ed that if it were possible to secure
the services of bull dog on the
South Slope, 500 holes could easily be
dug in day. Tom said the dog was
so well trained that if the locations
for the trees were staked out, the dog
would proceed to do the preliminary
work by pulling up each stake as he
came to it and scratrhing out a good
sized hole with his .forefeet. All his
helper-the man with a shovel had to
do was to trim the hole and loosen the
dirt in the bottom.
Then John Gamage got into the
game. He said he used to own a dog
which, when he became hungry, would
lie down in field as if dead. Pretty
soon flock of crows would spy the
supposedly dead canine and thinking
they had choice morsel, alight upon
mis- carcass. OF course, the dog would
then come to life, seize as many of
the crows as he desired, and fill his
hide full of crow meat.

Radio Telephones on Farms.

Henry Payne, bench rancher, pre-
diets that within three years radio
telephones will be as common in farm
houses as the ordinary telephone is
now, and will be source of both
pleasure and profit to the users. He
believes radio telephony will to a
large extent solve the "back to the
farm" problem, making farm life so
pleasant and alluring that there will
be no need of campaigns to lure peo-
pie from the cities and towns. Within
three years Mr.. Payne expects to sit
in his home and hear concerts by
great artists, music by famous bands
and orchestras, lectures by world re-
nowned scholars and scientists, and
sermons by celebrated divines. In
addition to that, he will get the mar
ket reports as soon as issued and re-
ceive the important news of the day
as soon as it happens. Then, he says,
there will be no incentive to live in
crowded cities, for the farmer will
have all the advantages in the way of
entertainment that his city brother
will possess

POULTRY DEPARTMENT
(By Mrs. A. Helmick)

! Have you noticed the diploma in the
window of the Emmett Grocery? You
may say it is pretty, but we are proud
of 1T for what it stands for. The
knowledge we have gained in earning
this diploma makes US feel more sat
isfied that knowledge is power" when
we are certain how to do things sus-
cessfully. The American School of
Poultry Husbandry has enrolled 6,791
pupils during the past twelve months,
according to their annual report, and
the rolls have a total of $4,000 men
and women graduates located in every
state in the union and 19 foreign
lands. According to the census re-
port and government statistics, prac
tically so per cent of the poultry pro-
duced in the United states annually
is produced in the central western
states. Thus we have some idea of
the interest taken in poultry work and
the large volume of work that has
been carried on successfully can best
be understood by referring to late
government statistics of which / do
not have; but it will surprise the most
fastidious to learn through the les
sons how and to what volume the
work is being carried on. The lessons
are clear, concise and easily under
stood and cover every phase of the
poultry work. 1t is a worlds of in
formation which would otherwise re-
quire years of experience to obtain.
The successful poultry raisers have
learned that incubating any egg that
will hatch is a good way to raise a |
lot of pullets, when tested, to Gull for |

Dracticed until production of poultry |
FOR the market is so large that regu-
ar markets in this country, at this |
lime of year when we have been ac
to getting a good price for
hens, must ship to other
markets and poultrymen do not get
enough to pay the cost of production.
Until poultrymen learn how and when
o Gull, this condition will exist. 1t
S mistaken idea, too, that poultry
f high egg production is no harder,
r does not cost more, to produce than
