LITTLE LAMP WARNS WATER
Operating 24 Hours Daily With Cur. rent at Ten Gents a klloWatt
 Hour ls Cheap.

Not only should drinking water h. tended for poultry be kept from freez- ing so that the hens can drink at all times, but, according to scientific poul- try raisers, it should also not be cold enough to chill the birds. Both req uisites may be provided for by the use of this inexpensive electric water warmer
 An ordinary pail or pan may be used with the addition of large tin can or small pail for the heating unit. If rade of galvanized iron, the parts will last longer. Arms riveted to the can extend over the edge of the water pail. Care must be taken to solder around the rivet holes on the outside, for the lamp container must be water-tight.
 An ordinary metal lamp socket Is soldered or crimped into tin disk large enough to cover the container. This cover must be either tight-fltting lid or be made to fasten with a spring or catch.
 In all but the coldest weather a 15- watt lamp will warm a ten-quart pail sufficiently. Operating 24 hours day

ARKANSAS SCHOOLS
 ARE FACING CRISIS
Says Superintendent Hill, Suggesting Measures for Legislatures
 Consideration.

Little Rock, Jan. 20-"Arkansas is in the midst of an. educational crisis, it is said in statement issued yester- day by A. B. Hill, state superintendent of public instruction. "A great major ity of the people of the state are inter ested in securing, in some way, relief from the financial embarrassment which exists in great many local school districts"
 MT. Hill said that in his judgment, the legislature should consider, seri- ously, the question of education. The State Department of Education, he said, has no set program to which it is welded, which it desires the General Assembly to adopt without serious consideration and does not wish to be understood as advocating any partcu- lar system of finance or taxation with reference to the schools. He believes, he declared, that the financial prob lem is one for the governor and the legislature to solve.
 Suggests Legislative Program.
 With this idea in view, MT. Hill sub mits the following items to the legis- lature for considerations:
 Some plan of giving relief to all the local school districts in the state, the plan agreed upon to be in line with the present constitution, so that no risk of uncertainty or litigation will arise.
 Subsidy to be used in encouraging the consolidation of rural schools, this subsidy to be large enough to make the plan effective.
 Subsidy to be used for the purpose of encouraging the establishing of rur- al schools and standardizing of high schools already in existance.
 A fund to be used in purchasing text books.
 A revision and simplifcation of the present teachers certifcation of the school code.
 An act requiring all special school districts to make an annual repor. to the State Board of Education show. ing outstanding indebtedness assets. and an itemized statement of expenses Tor the current y ar; this statement to be given to the press for publication in local papers.

GREEN FEEDS FOR CHICKENS
in Summer There Is No Difficulty Different in Winter.

Prepared by the United States Department
 of Agricu'ture)
 If the best results-are to be obtained with poultry, they must be furnished with plentiful supply of green feed. Where fowls have unlimited range on farm they will secure green feed during the spring and summer, but during the winter 1t must be supplied for them.
 The question of how to supply the best feed at the least cost is one that, each poultry keeper must decide large ly for himself It will probably make but little difference what kind of green feed is supplied provided it is relished by the fowls. Cabbages, turnips, beets, potatoes, etc., are suitable for this pur- pose. The larger roots and the cab bages may be suspended by means of a wire or string or they may be placed on the fioOr in which case it would be we'll to split the turnips or beets lengthwise with large knife. Pota- toes and turnips should be fed cooked. The mangel is an excellent root for feeding raw.
 Cut clover, soaked in boiling water, fed alone or with the mash, is good, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Clover meal and ground alfalfa make very good feeds for this purpose. Where the fowls are yarded and not enough green feed is furnished by the yards, a small patch of clover, alfalfa, or rape may be sown. Any one of these, if frequently moved, will fur nish a great quantity of green feed in a form relished by the fowls. Canada field peas may also be sown for this purpose, and when fed in tender, crisp condition are eaten readily. Rye is good crop for late fall and early spring, for it will germinate and grow in cold weather As general thing, fowls should have once day about all the green feed they will eat.
