NAL industry.
Many bulletins are available dealing
with various phases Of poultry raising,
any of which may be had free upon
application to the division of publ
cations, United States Department of
Agriculture. In addition to the regu-
lar bulletins there are number pre-
pared especially for boys and girls
clubs and for persons beginning the
poultry business without much knowl-
edge of its requirements. A list OF
these may be had upon application to
the same division.
At the departments experiment
farm at Beltsvflle, Md. various ra-
lions are being fed to hens to study
their effect. For example, in one ex-
pertinent the hen balances her own
ration in another fish meal Is includ-
ed; in another no wheat or wheat
products are used; while cotton seed
meal replaces part of the beef scrap
in another. Comparisons are also made
Of the effect of the same rations on
hens of the egg breeds as compared
with those Of the general-purpose
breeds. Only simple rations of widely
available feeds are used.
Hens in considerable numbers are
being trap-nested, and matings made
to determine the possibilities Of differ
ent methods Of breeding in increasing
or fixing egg production. Matings to
fix certain types or characters de-
sired in the fiocks also are made. No
birds are retained In the flock which
have a disqualification that would
bar them under the rules Of the
American Standard of Perfection.
The resultsN being obtained indicate
that 1t Is possible to combine utility
and standard breeding to a practical
degree Any Of this information is
available for the persons requesting
1t, and the department is eager to have
It used widely.
Boys and girls poultry clubs have
wide influence in interesting the
children In raising chickens, and in
teaching them and their parents the
best methods Of handling poultry for
the production Of eggs and meat. =.
The department is giving special at
tention to- improving the quality Of
market eggs with view to overcom-
ing losses estimated at many millions
Of dollars annually. These studies
cover the production Of eggs on the
farm, and their handling from the
farm to the country store. The pro-
duction Of infertile eggs, which are
far superior In keeping qualities to
fertile eggs, is being advocated.

the presence of this handsome young
stranger, abashed in the glamor of his
uniform, and all the beauty of him.
With boyish admiration he was con-
templating the sparkle of her gray
eyes, shaded by long lashes as ebony
black as her hair which hung in ring

she was very pretty, and that he liked
to have her in the Salvation army

There was mute pleading in her ex-
preston as she drew back on the
bench little farther away from him.

GOOD BOOSTS FOR CHICKENS
Points to Be Considered Are Ease Of
Cleaning and to Prevent Lurking
Places for Mites.

Good roosts are to the chickens
what a good bed is to humans. About
half the fowls time is spent on the
roosts. The points to be considered
in putting In the roosts are ease of
cleaning, spacing from the back wall

Bonus Bill Agreed on by Republicans

A general aereemnnt for the enactment
of bonus bill for former service men
early in the present session of Congress
was indicated at the conclusion of a
White House dinner recently between
President Harding and a number of sena-
tors, representatives and members of the
cabinet
The plan contemplates, it was UNDER
stood, that the cost Of the bonus will be
betrayed, if possible, from receipts from
the allied debt to the United States. IL
these are not sufficient, it was said, it was
tentatively suggested that a sales tax
might be supported by the administration
for. the purpose.
All the agreements reached at the dim
ner were provisional, it was emphasized
by those who attended, and subject to re-
vision if further canvass of sentiment
among Republicans in the House and
Senate make it necessary. Other items
of legislation under discussion included
the permanent tariff and the refunding
bill for the allied debt
In the party which assembled were five
senators, seven members of the House,
two members of the cabinet, Attorney
General Daugherty and Secretary Weeks,
and Chairman John T. Adams of the Re-
publican national committee. The pro-
gram followed was identical with that at
other White House dinners at which the
general policies of the administration
have been discussed since Mr.. Harding
assumed Office.
