To the college bred girl the chal-

whose efforts she is obtaining it. and
what use she means to make of it
in life. To her the experiences and
outlook on life of her factory train

MILE. D'ALyIELIA VISITS
AMERICA
Daughter OF Belgian Nobility Says
Opportunities For Women Are
Few In Belgium

Each tick of the clock means an
other opportunity for women in
America" says Mile. Helene Goblet
d'Alviella, daughter of Count d'Alvi-
ella former Minister of State in
Belgium, who is making her first
visit to this country to speak at the
Y. w. c. A. Convention. yet in Bel
GUM, where for four long years not
wheel turned, not a single type
writer clicked. even today there are
few run by women. About the only
occupation open to women of the bet
ter classes is teachingi Even nurs-
ing is still largely in the hands of
nuns. The opportunity for self-de-
velopment and expression, as you
know it here, is unknown in Bel
GUM"
Up to recently doing embroidery
was the major occupation for leisure
time, she added, although Belgian
charities, due to the splendid volun-
teer leadership by women, are I'M
equaled in Europe. I'VE could not
show what we could do in mems jobs
during the war for there were no
jobs to be had" she concluded. "The
German occupation and our complete
isolation from the outside world de-
barred us from making The Same rap

Of other countries. Now we are anx-
ious to take our part in the world
and are deeply concerned that it be

TIMELY POULTRY NOTES

Don't relax. The fowls need pro-
per attention Just the same in the
pleasant weather of spring time as
they did in the more rigorous winter
weather now past.
If the slop or refuse from the kitch-
On is fed to the chickens it should be
done while fresh and not allowed to
stand until sour.
Scatter air-slaked lime freely
about the houses and yards; it viii go
long way towards preventing dis
ease.
1t is always easier and better to
prevent sickness by proper care and
timely forethought than by trying to
dope and doctor after it is too late.
Now that warm weather is coming
on, cape worms will soon put in an
appearance in certain localities. They
can often be prevented by putting a
few drops OF turpentine in each quart
of water-and scattering air-slaked
lime about the coops and runs.
Avoid over-crowding. 1t is bad
practice with fowls of all ages, but es-
pecially with youngsters. Chicks with
mother hens or in breeders often are
crowded at night When they get out
in the morning most of them take
cold and this often develops into roup,
which is usually fatal in the case of
young chicks.
Too many farmers still pursue the
Fashioned policy of breeding from
the whole flock of poultry. 1t is far
better to have just one or two small
pens of your choicest fowls from
which to set eggs and hatch chicks.
Thus your standard of quality will
show improvement from year to year.
The various brands of prepared
chick feed are good and economical to
USE They save time. make stronger
chicks, and do away with the uncer-
tainty OF mixing a correct ration at
home.-Farm Life.
