Winston Churchill Comes Back.

Winston Churchill, war correspondent, writer leader of the Antwerp expedition that cost England 75O00 soldiers and accom- plished nothing, originator of the Dardanelles and Gallipoli expedition that cost Australia and New Zealand SOO,O0O soldiers and ac- complished nothing, is again candidate for parliament. This time as a conservative. For merly he appeared as a liberal. But this time he is showing that he really understands the trend of the times. In the future there will be new alignment of parties in England and probably also in other countries It will be socialism against conservatism. In that strug- gle, liberalism is slowly grinding away. Some oe the adherents of the liberal party will join the ranks of labor and others will go, into the conservative phalanx, It is something that comes as a natural consequence of cir cumstances, the iron march of economic his tory. And Winston shows that he has, at least this time, rightly understood the situa- tion,

4 Last Resort

I've tried my hand at literature; I've tried my hand at art; In law I've struggled to secure A satisfactory start. But all in vain, with might and main, I've battled 'gainst my fate, While summers bloom and fade again, I grow disconsolate. I've tried my hand at everything; I've studied five or six Professions. No reward they bring. I'll now try politics; Since all the other things I've done ~ Have proven fruitless to run I guess I'll undertake to run
 The governments affairs.

Tchitcherin And La Toilette.

A NEWSPAPER in the United States "A capital says that recognition of the union of soviet republics would mean a surrender to communism. The same paper insinuates that Mir. Tchitcherin is giving out interviews to help Senator La Toilette in his campaign for president. MT. Tchitcherin, who proved himself no fool at the conference at Genoa, is not likely to be so anxious to help Senator La Toilette. Tchicherin's po- litical school has a party of it's own in this country. It's not much of party and it has little influence. But it's here and its candi- date for the presidency is William z. Foster. If Georges Tchitcherin gives out interviews to help any candidate in the United States, we may reasonably expect he will favor his own comrades" If not, Mir. Tchitcherin would have to face the discipline of the Third Internationale at Moscow. Coolidge they call an out-and-out reactionary, the enemy with out disguise. La Toilette is q so-called yellow liberal, who uses their phraseology to delude the workers. Moreover, to the reds, Mir. La Toilette is less acceptable than Mir. Coolidge. And as to surrendering to communism! Has England or Holland,. Scandinavia or ter ' nany had any ill-effects from recognizing the soviet government? It's strange to what illogical arguments and misleading state ments political campaign will lead men.

Herriot And The Monks.

Premier Herriot has received letter signed by tine six cardinals of France asking him to use moderation in respect to his plans in AIsace-L Lorraine and in other religious questions. Herriot recently announced that he would strictly enforce the existing laws against religious orders and also that he would abolish religious education in Alsac& The French ambassador at the vatican is to be recalled and the papal nuncio at Paris IS to return to Rome. Herriot reasons. from the standpoint that the vatican represents a spiritual power and not a temporal one France though is a temporal power and can not nave dealings nor accept the discipline of a power that considers itself supreme. In regard to the religious communities the French premier is warned to be wary. The members of these orders showed their patriotism during the war, he is told. But another matter to be considered is the dan ger that religious communities leave the country. To the liQueur industry and the lace industry this would be a heavy blow. When the separation of church and state came about before the war under Premier Viviani, the monks of Chartreux, distillers of the famous Chartreuse, left the country and went to Hol- land, They took with them the secret for nula of the delicious "aperatif." This has meant to France a loss of 9 million francs a year in export values. The suit of the French republic against the monks for the recovery of their formula is still in the courts.

 A meeting is called at an early date in Birmingham to arrange for proper exhibit in January at the Southern Ex- position in New York. Most of the space allotted to other Southern states has been taken. Alabama has so far neg lected her opportunity in this respect, and much of the space allotted to this state is still open. The Manufacturers Record has offered price of five thou sand dollars to the Southern state mak- ing the best exhibit of it's resources at the exposition. This is a secondary con- sideration. The value of a creditable exhibit where thousands of visitors from every part of the country could see and be impressed, with it would be worth immensely more to the state than the winning of a prize of ten times that sum. As the result of a convincing exhibit, millions of dollars would be in-
 vested in Alabama, and scores of new
 enterprises would come in.
 One of the things which Alabama has
 lacked is intelligent publicity. This ex- position offers a splendid opportunity to catch up in that respect. 1t is believed
 that if the industrial, commercial and
 agricultural interests of Alabama would
 combine in a concerted movement to give the state and it's resources such
 advertisement in such places and under
 such conditions as they deserve, there
 would result great development and ex- pansion in every constructive field. All
 the clements and factors for development
 are here. They must be made known to
 those who can and will develop them.

"Interesting-If True. '

Paris is excited and worried. Conferences are held in the war department and in the air ministry's offices. Rumors has 1t that a few nights ago fleet of German airplanes, flying at an immense altitude, passed over the French capital, went us far as the channel coast and returned to Germany Wireless stations picked up their signals to each other, it is said. But the government gives little credence to the rumors after due in- vestigatiOn. Where would the Germans get the planes? How could they keep such plans secret? The air has given rise to many mysterious stories before. During the war it was said that German aviators carried with them a picture projection machine and fly ing above the Russian lines at night, threw a picture of the Madonna and child on the clouds above the German lines. The Rus sian soldiers, seeing the immense sign in the skies, refused to fight against an army pro- tected by the Queen of Heaven herself and laid down their arms to the Germans. It's a good story, and interesting if true. as city editors are in the habit of saying.

Gull the Flock Early for Fall
Layers and Show Winners
BY J. W. KELLER, Eminent Poultry Expert



Have you ever stopped to consider
the question of when culling in the
poultry industry should actually be-
gin? Doubtless you have read numer-
GUS discussions dealing with the
rules by which physical character
istics Of fowls are employed to de-
termine their ability to lay. You are
also very likely aware OF the sure
ness of the trap-nest In this respect
Not everyone, however, can spare
the time to use this sure but slow
method. Then too, with only the
trap-nest system as your guide, you
are forced to feed and care for many

judgment could be eliminated from
the board bill" long before the
arrival of the laying age.
When then should culling begin?
Culling should begin with the hatch
ing egg. The character of the egg
itself is an important factor in deter
mining the physical characteristics
of the chick that is Matched from it.
Select the uniformly long egg for
Matching and you win get the egg
type with its long deep frame. That
is one of the big requirements in egg
production. Short, round eggs will
naturally compel short body and
f.ame development. Begin to Gull
When yoa start to hatch
How 30 Gull Matching Eggs
Too little attention is given to the
proper selection Of Matching eggs
especially in the early season when
they are harder to get One hatchery
informed the writer quite recently
that it could not get eggs enough in
the early season to warrant careful
culling such as is practiced when
eggs are more plentiful Here per-
haps is the explanation of why weak
chicks and runts appear. Some eggs
that are normal in shape and size
should be classed as acceptable.
Those answering the following
description should most assuredly be
rejected as culls: all irregular
shapes. abnormally large or small
sizes, rough shells, ringed or ridged
shells and shells that are too porous.
This then is the first step in system

characteristics, 1t means a saving
