administration of laughing gas
by dentists, because of the atten-

was voiced in an address by DIR. M.

dentist "has never used this gas

satisfaction" he said.

Proper Poultry Feeding Begins
With the Food Itself
by ]. W. KELLER, Eminent Poultry Expert

The proper feeding Of poultry and

methods instead Of simple, easily
worked ones. But It will always be-
noted that as knowledge and exper-
fence are gained, troublesome feed
ing methods are dropped and simpler
ones used. So to the beginner we
wish to offer this advice:-Do not
spend too much time experimenting
because others have done this for
Won, Adopt some feeding method
That has been proven satisfactory
and stick to 1t. You will make the
most rapid progress in this way.
Don't be afraid Of overlooking a
welLbalanced ration. Your birds
will not get too fat to lay"-they
will get fat if they don't lay. And
the big problem is to induce the
LAYERS to eat as much food as they
can digest in order that they may
lay heavily and steadily. Poor pro-
duction-when proper ration is fed
is more often the result of under
feeding than anything else.
1t must be admitted that heavy
feeding puts the layers under heavy
strain. This explains why the great
est attention must be given to main
tanning health and vigor, why both
external and internal conditions must
be kept right. Keep a watchful eye
on your birds. Layers may get out
Of condition sufficiently to check egg
production without being really sick.
as this latter word is generally
understood.
In the experiments which the Pratt
Experimental Poultry Farm of Phil
adelphia have conducted along these
lines, many valuable pointers for
poultry raisers have been discovered.
This information on proper feeding
can be had for the asking. Instruc-
tive booklets on all poultry raising
problems will be sent on request.
Feedina-The Big Problem For
Success
Many things enter into the proper
feeding of poultry. but none Is more
important than the feed. itself Re-
suits from inefficient home nafxed
feeds are disastrous. in the long rum.
The only advantage that can be
claimed for home mixed feeds is
that the maker knows what goes into
them. But outweighing5 this 100 to

very fine. desirable quality of feeds
that enter into scientifically prepared
commercial mash or scratch feeds
are not ohtainable from small dealers
by the poultry man who would mix
his own feed.

and profitable, to start
the proper feeding of your chickens
by using a scientifically prepared feed
than relying on your own judgment

INSURCENT HOUSE
GROUP TO CONTEST
Mellon TAX Plan

Washington, Feb. 1--Rumblings of
dissatisfaction among house Republi
cans over the action OF the majority
members of the house ways and
means committee in deciding to re-
port a tax bill carrying the income
rate proposed by Secretary Mellon
crystalliZed today in an announce
ment by Representative Frear, Wis
consin, a leader of the Republican
insurgents, that his faction would
not support the measure.
In announcing the stand of the in
surgents, Mr.. F'rear revealed that Il
compromise on the Mellon rates had
been virtually agreed t. yesterday by
some Republican members Of the
committee, including Chairman Green.
and the insursent groups. The pro-
decision Of the committee majority
included. it is understood. a fifty per-
cent reduction in the normal tax in
stead of twenty five percent cut as
suggested by Mr.. Mellon and maxi
mum SurtaX of about 40 percent in
stead of % percent. Eleven members
Of the committee insisted upon the
Mellon rates, which were adopted.
While the Republicans of the ways
and means committee worked on to
further the details of the rate sec
ton, preparatory to taking the bill
up again next week in full commit
tee. Secretary Mellon ISSUED estimates
showing that the rate reductions pro-
posed by Representative Garner. of
Texas. for the Democrats, would cost
| the government $34T. ,491 in reve-
nue. against a loss of $2S7,Sl4,261, if
the Mellon rates were accepted. lie
made on comment upon the estimates.
Commenting on the compromise
for rate reductions, Mr. Frear said 1t
was generally commended by some
Republican members of the ways and
means committee for its fairness.
"Qf course. every member of the
house and OF the committee Mr..
Frear said. understands that when
the bill reaches the house the rates
will he showed under. AS political
proposition the Mellon bill is destined
to be tea pot tax that will ~rivai
its namesake before it gets through
I congress" ..,. -
The Republicans of the committee
today rejected Mr.. Green's proposal
for n gift tax. which nehrged as a
complement TO the estate tax to pre-
vent evasion Of the latter.
The Democratic National Commit
tee issued n report today showing
that 6,641,262 persons would be bene-
fitted under the Garner plan for tax
relief against 9.433 under the Mellon
pla'n. The statement also said it was
estimated that either plan will raise
an adequate amount of revenue for
the government"
