FANCIER EDITOR CHANGES
TO DUAL PURPOSE POULTRY

Editor Frank L. Platt, of The
I American Poultry Journal having
seen the degenerating effects of spe-
cialism in focks, is advocating dual
purpose poultry breeding. He real
ICES that at present it is an unpopular
course to pursue. but is confident that
J in the long run the American egg
and-meat types will be the most
profitable in the hands of the majority
of farmers.
Breeders of poultry and livestock
are eager to sell to farmers-to "get
the farm trade" Would they not be
far more successful then they have
been in the past if they would offer
farmers breeds that are adapted to
farm conditions and practices to fit a
speciality? re American breeds of
poultry Mr.. plu : says, are of dual
purpose tyre; De would maintain and
improve then in relation to that
standard.
1t is an interesting anomaly that the
overwhelming majority of farmers,
who are not specialists. should, with
out special training and experience,
be expected to adopt specialize d
breeds and the teachings of special
lists. We suspect that if those who
preach specialization the loudest
knew more than some of them appear
to know about farming and farm con-
ditions as farmers know them, they
would modify their message" make
more converts" and do more good.
1t is most important and appropriate
that specialists should come down and
talk rationally. to. farmers in the
terms Of practical farm experience,
than that all farmers should eagerly
fly up. like unreasoning moths, to
take their bright teachings and mag
netic specialties on faith.
Specialism has ACCOMPLISHED many
invaluable things for agriculture, but
and their specialties are
running too far ahead of the vast
procession of farmers. This accounts
for the widening gap between the
large body of accumulated scientific
facts and ~the methods of farming

Secretary Laying Competitions

Another flopover for first place in the
Eleventh Philadelphia North American
International Egg Laying Competition
was the surprise of the forty-seventh
week; pen %. long the holder of honor
place in greatest egg score out of 100
pens of layers, has, after a lapse Of
one week, again taken the lead by a
margin of eggs, its competitor, pen 3,
going back to second position.
Pen 2S laid IA eggs and pen 8 laid 8;
in the meantime pen % produced "a

leader.

ing date, October 31st A strong finish
by any 70 the three top pens will cause
a complete upset Of the present arrange
ment Of places. particularly If pen 2S
keeps anywhere near it's present stride. |
Fourth, fifth and sixth place holders
are quite likely to maintain their pres |
ent relative positions-there is too great |
a margin between fourth and first to |
permit interference from this source.
Bird 3 in pen % again laid 5 eggs, the |
number required each Of the five re-
naming weeks to reach SOO-just what
may be the final score is doubtful in
view Of this birds failure to continue
her heavy production thru the forty-sec-

IOWA HAS HALF
MILLION AUTOS
Registration of Automobiles to Show
Big Increase During the
Year of 1922.
TOTAL FEES PROBABLY
WILL EXCEED $4,000, 900
81 Per Cent of Sum Goes to Road
Improvement, "a to Highway
Commission, 81 to Auto
Department.

Des Moines, Iowa,-An increase in
the number of automobiles in Iowa
and the licenses collected, as shown
! in the records of Secretary of State
Ramsay, is recognized as nothing less
,:han marvellous.
1t is estimated that more than half
million cars will be registered in
Iowa in 1922. In 1910 the total num-
Der of cars registered was 10,422, and
the total fees collected amounted 20
sos sos.
In 1921, Secretary Ramsay's office
registered 481,535 cars, and the IL
cense fees paid amount to $7,719,-
127. This year the total fees prob
ably will exceed SS,O00,OO0. So. that
in short eleven years il is recorded
the state has increased its number of
motor cars from mere handful to
half million, and its fees from $685.
COS to practically $S,000,000.
Ninety-four per cent of this auto
mobile money is set aside for road
improvement, 21a per cen: is as
signed to the support of the state
highway commission, and 31a per
cent to the maintenance of the state
automobile department.
Of the amount allowed to the state
sautomo bile department, Secretary
Ramsay reports that last year the de-
partment turned back into the gen.
eral automobile fund S51,433, which
was the unused balance in the fund
assigned to the state department.
A movement has been started by
Secretary Ramsay to secure more
uniform registration of cars in the
middle west states or the states bor-
dering Iowa, so that it will be easier
to trace a stolen car, and additional
aid will be provided in the recovery
of stolen machines.
He has sent invitations to those in
charge of the state auto departments
in Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, South
Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin to
participate in a conference to be held
here The week of June %. c-N z
In 1921 there were 221,44S cars
stolen in the states named, and only
10 per cent We're recovered. The re-
cords show that 1889 cars were
stolen in Iowa in 1921 and about 100
cars were recovered.

A noted woman worker in social
hygiene advocates more women in pol
tits and more laws as cure for vice
and the activities of vicious women.
A national legislator wants mar
riage laws so amended that from ten
days to two weeks must elapse between
issuance of license and marriage, as
a cure for divorce, the divorced wo-
men being one of the great evils of
the countryl
1t would be "a dull world if we all
thought alike. Yet one is reminded
that fundamental of the government
of what we revere as the land of the
free is tolerance; willingness to con-
cede to the other fellow the right to
his opinion, even as we hold inalien-
able the right to our own.
No good American has any objec-
ton to anyone thinking that flappers
cause wars, that women are evil crea-
lures, that hasty marriages undermine
the American home, or that vice can
be cured by don't do it, laws. But
there is great objection of evange-
lists, educators and legislators stating
as facts which they wish to be the
basis of legal action what are, after
all, only personal opinions, the truth
of which it is difficult to substantiate
by any evidence.
One does wonder, at times, whether
these reformers who decry women
really had mothers, or if, like Topsy

Why 1t Happened.

AN unexpected climax to delicate
situation was the announcement Tues
day that the interstate commerce COM
mission hadgranted the petition OF
the Oregon Short Line to build the
Homedale extension
If the protest of the Caldwell Trac-
ton company ever reached Washing
ton, it quite evidently was discounted
and over-ruled. 1t is also quite evil
dent that the arguments of the pro-
testant cannot now be heard, that, if
an injustice has been done, it cannot
be righted For the interstate COM
merce commission rarely, perhaps
never, reverses itself.
Justifying the interstate commerce
commissions viewpoint is not diff
cult. Idaho officials, including the
governor, the attorney general and the
public utilities commission, volunteer
ed that no protest to construction OF
the branch line would be made. They
absolutely ignored, however, the one
and only possible protestant, the
Caldwell Traction company.
And when, caught in the web OF
their own error, Idaho officials pro-
ceeded Immediately and injudiciously
to discount objections the Traction
company did file. Unquestionably
these final and unbecoming represen-
state commerce commission.
And that is that.

Why Nope?
(By GUY FLENNER)

THE Mountain States Telephone
company has arranged to spend
a very large sum in betterments in
Idaho this year. The telephone COM
pany, aside from its desire to give pre-
sent service, believes in Idaho's flu
ture and is building and extending and
charging in harmony with its belief.
The Oregon Short Line will this
year spend large amount of money,
couple of million or so, in improve
ments, which will include more double
tracking around Glenns Ferry and ex-
tension to certain points in order to
give additional rail transportation to
