PORTABLE HOUSES ARE BEST
Make II Possible to Keep Young Grow
ing Fowls on Fresh, Uncon-
taminated Land.

On a recent visit to a large prac-
teal poultry farm, it was observed
that good use IA being made of a
number of portable poultry houses.
These were of good size and were on
runners made of heavy joists. The
runners were braced against each
other, So that a horse could be hltched
10 the front and the house hauled any
where. This made II possible to keep
the young growing birds on fresh, un-
contaminated sod. which was always
sending up "A good lot of fresh grass.
When the movable houses were
pulled AWAY from each place where
they had been for a few weeks, the
rains soon washed the droppinGs into
the soil. This nourlshed the grass
and improved the land. In no case
was the sod eaten down till the
ground was bare.
For small chicks the same plant
used small coops on two wheels that
could easily be pushed from place
to place by hand. In this way they
never were troubled with gapes or
contaminated soil.

TELLS OF ESKIMO MELODIES
Arctic Explorer Declares They Are
Weird and Wistful to a Degree,
and Characteristic.

Knud Rasmussen and Fridtjof Nam
sen and also Hinrich Johannes Rink,
who was sent north years ago by Lady
Franklin to find her husband, have
given to the world valuable facts about
the customs and lives of the Eskimos,
the Detroit News observes. Christian
Leden's unique contribution from the
arctic regions is in the field of music.
For years he studied and faithfully
transcribed the Innult melodies. Each
Eskimo, he says, is obliged to compose
his own song, and no person may sing
the song of another without first OBJ
tanning permission. The mother has
her cradle song. infinitely low and
sweet. The hunter has his song Of the
chase, clear and bold. Even the bad
man of the tribe has his song, and 1t
was quick and appropriately brazen.
Harmony has not been developed
among the Eskimos. They sing only In
unison. But their melodies are weird
and wistful, often consisting of only
two or three motives. which are
strangely effective.
1t is during the long polar night
that the Eskimo has time to rest In his
igloo and sing his songs.

A lambing-off demonstration In La
Porte County, Ind, proved so success
full last year that plans have been made
for a similar one this year, says a
report received by the United States
Department of Agriculture. Last year
a 80-acre field was planted to corn and
Ito San soy beans. The bean seed for
all but 6 acres was i%noculated. The
beans were planted with a soy-bean
attachment on the corr planter at the
rate Of 6 pounds an acre.
When the corn and beans matured,
800 lambs, purchased for $685. a hun
dred pounds, were turned in to harvest
them. The lambs were sold for S10.25
a hundred pounds, with a total profit
of $500. After the lambs were re-

cULLING FOWLS FOR MARKET
To Make Best Possible Returns Every
Hen in Flock Should Be Layer

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Every boy or girl having poultry
naturally wishes to earn as mucn
money as possible. To do this every
hen should be Il good layer. All cock
erels. except those kept for breeding
purposes, as well as pullets that lack
vigor and vitality. should be eaten,
eanned for home use, or sold as 5000
MS they are large enough. says the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. Selecting or "weedlng out" the
hens that are poor layers and picking
out for market The eoekerels least
likely to develop into good breeders Is
commonly called "culllng' or culling
for eggs and for market.
The best time to Gull the hens is
during August and September, usually
from August u to September 10, for
at that season 1t Is easier to determine
which are the good layers and which
are boarders. At that time of year
hens which show signs of laying or are
laying and baye not molted usually
are the ones that have been the bet
ter layers during the entire season,
and the hen that lays best during her
first year usually will lay best during
her second aud third years. She Is.

one source or from any one class. Our present revenue laws al a whole
re discriminatory. 1t will not be many years before the sources of tax
alton will be dried up to such an extent, and principally through the ever
increasing issue of taxexempt securities, that even the present directors
to a sales tax will be demanding it. If all the members of congress who
believe a sales tax is the proper solution of our revenue legislation would
vote Tor 1t, we could, in my opinion, before the close of the next session
OF congress, make 1t a part Of our revenue laws.
l take this occasion to warn the aboring men, the farmers and the
active, energetic independent business men and manufacturers Of Amer
lea against the disastrous results affecting the future revenue receipts
OF our government if restrictions re not placed upon the issues Of future
taxexempt securities. The regular annual revenues will not only be
affected, but the revenue received from estate taxes will diminish to a
minimum. The wealthy of our country need no one to tell them how to
protect themselves against taxation under existing laws. If they have a
wealth sufficient to provide for themselves and dependents they are guar
anteed against federal and state taxation, both rs to income and inheri-
lance taxes, by the transfer of their holdings into tax-exempt securities,
and at the same time they take from the channels of legitimate business
that amount OF capital that is so necessary to the natural growth and
development of our industrial life, also depriving our laboring men of
needed employment.
he ease with which taxexempt securities ar disposed of has been
the means of many of the states going headong into debt. The money
came easily and was spent extrayaganty and from now on the interest
on the bonds will be a heavy added burden to the already oyerburdened
taxpayers. | hope to remain in the senate long enough to see this mon
strous evil corrected.

Sex Misinformation and Unwholesome
Impressions in Formative Years


A study of 9s college men revealed that the vast majority of them
received their first permanent impressions of sex at a very early age and
that for the most part these impressions came from distinctly unwhole-
some sources. This misinformation and these unwholesome impressions
during the formative years of childhood and youth, left uncorrected,
explain why We find the subject Of sex unduly occupying the foreground
of the consciousness OF students.
Tn promoting sex education in colleges the aim is not to introduce
special courses under special teachers. The purpose is rather to bring
about adequate treatment of the subject in a natural, constructive way
rs an integral part Of the broader subjects to which sex has a natural rea-
ton, with a view to normaizing consciousness and attitude with respect
to sx and to furnishing such an understanding, Interpretation and valua-
ton of the subject as will enable students to adjust it satsfyingly to q
social philosophy of life.

Passing of the CoWboy="Folks, Just Plain,
Orn'ry, Bowlegged Humans
By f. b. OSBORN, in London Post.

The stock farm has succeeded the vast, unfeneed range, and the life
described in "The Virginian" of Mr.. Owen Wider, the most faithful and
beguilng picture of its kind in American literature, has vanished Is COM
pletely as the spacious river epoch of Mark Twain's ~"Euckeberry Finn"
/ can see in the minds eye that western "cheyalere' gayly starting down
the Trail Of the Obsolete, driving before them a huge coudlke mob Of
the wild longhorned range cattle which would no longer be worth their
keep.
They we're themselves unconscious of their historic appearance, their
peculiar and almost impersonal virtues; as Bart Smith, that famous cow
puncher, once observed: "We are merely folks-just plain, ornry bow
legged humans"
But they we're in truth a rae apart, a workaday order Of chyalry
with a character as distinctive as their dress, and the world is the poorer
for their passing. After all, men who live on horseback, think on horse
back, inevitably their thoughts re cinched up a little higher than those
of pedestrians %ploddng in the dust.

If the Medical Profession Once Applies Itself

How long should a man be able to live? There is no telling. Man
