READ THE ADVERTISEMENTS

Read the advertisements that appear in this
issue. Red Lodge has as progressive and enter
prising a set of business men as are to be found
anywhere. They have clean, new up-todate
stocks of goods, courteous clerks and attractive
show windows as a visit to the various shops and
stores will prove. Their Christmas displays in
dictate careful selection on the part OF the buyers
and customers are assured that they can find just
as appropriate gifts here as can be found any
where.
The same may be said Of the Bearcreek mer-
chants as has been said above of the Red Lodge
merchants and Bearcreek subscribers are also re-
quested to carefully read the advertisements Of
the merchants in that town.
Of course, Christmas gifts aren't everything.

every one of our advertisers are commended to
the buying public whether you want staple or

Domestic Science is taught in all first class
High Schools nowadays and the span of life is
steadily increasing. That is as it should be for

WILL 1T PAY?

On last Thursday eighteen hundred school
children Of Southwestern Iowa and Northwestern
Missouri left Shenandoah, Iowa, for Springfield
Illinois to visit the tomb of Lincoln Three special
trains were used for the pilgrimage which was
financed by their local KiWanis clubs
Quite an undertaking, wasn't it? Quite an
expensive trip, don't you think? But-will it pay?
We revere Washington, the dignifed, soldier
ly statesman; we admire Jefferson the scholarly
enemy Of oppression and misrule; we love Lincoln
the homely, hearty, helpful product of the western
woods and prairies, the man with the intellect of
a Caesar the fearless honesty of Hampden and
the humanity of King David.
Our school children are taught too little of
this wonderful American, of his methods motives
and rules of action, but with chiidhood's uncon-
cious absorption of the feelings Of their elders
they value Lincoln highest in their thoughts and
have enshned him hottest in their hearts.
Yes that was quite an expensive trip, quite an
undertaking, but-Will it pay?
Everyone of those children will come away
with higher ideals and be inspired to better
things. Lincons very name serves as a spur to
eloquence, his words are eloquence itself, his
deeds shine on the pages of the worlds history so
that they dim the splendor of high achievements
by Others
But that expensive pilgrimage, will it pay?
The DID, old American question-Will it pay?
AS though anything else those patriotic Kiwanis
could do would pay as well! PAY Yes pay i'm
measurably, iimitably unspeakably, and in a
hundred ways material and spiritual alike
Pay? If every American school boy could
stand hat in hand at the tomb in earnest medita-
ton until his eyes dampened in the humility of
his own future responsibilities and while he made
his own earnest obeisance to America wouldn't
that pay? 1t would pay-pay him and US and our
childrpn'S chdrpn'S children
Success to that pilgrimage. 1t will pay.
When this nation-when this world ceases to
revere Lincoln's memory to honor his name and to
emulate his virtues chaos has come again and the
end Of enlightments and popular government isih

or what party is successful in county,
state or nation we seem to survive somehow.
Of course, all the stories and rumors that
were spread about among the electorate as to Is
sues, whether good or bad, were not true, So lets
forget.
Everyone knows that the candidates of the
party opposite his own were bunch Of porch
climbers and wife heaters and booze fighters and
ircompetents sc what the difference nowf Aside
from those minor faults they are a pretty good
set and will make good officers, SO let's forgive
1t is said that the most violently insane case
in an Eastern institution is a woman who, being
new in politics. believed everything they told her
regarding the life and character of the candidates
They actually have to keep her in a straight
jacket, whatever that is Just imagine anyone
keeping woman politician dressed in jacket
for any length of time in these days of decollete
styles The second worst case recorded is said to
be fellow who believed everything he read in the
newspapers.
Politics is a great game isn't it? But it is
we'll that we declare truce between campaigns,
so in this age of weeks" why not have Brotherly
Love Week, say month after election is over.
Of course, it should come in the dull season when
one would have little else to do but sit arond and
love his neighbors which is indeed some task Just
sit around and knit or white and love his fellow
man. Quite an idea don't you think? I'll tell the
world it u.s.
Could there be more important week estab-
lished than that? Surely not.
In the golden years of peace and happiness
that such an action will help to bring in prosper

BREEDING POULTRY
WITHOUT TRAPNEST

Speaking over radio broadcaster
K F A E on "A Practical Plan Tor
Breeding Without the Use OF Trap
nests" Prof. John 5. Carver, head of
the poultry department OF the otale
College of Washington said the other
night:
Most poultrymen today agree The
only accurate method of breeding for
high egg production is by use of trap
nests and individual pedigree records.
1t is impossible, however, for the av-
erage poultryman, in commercial pro
duction of eggs, to afford either ths
necessary time or equipment for ia
dividual pedigree work. 1t is esti-
mated that it costs about 90 cents a
year to trapnest a bird, and this cost
plus the large amount Of record keep
ing makes it prohibitive for any but
those breeding for egg production as
business.
But the poultry raiser who is max
irg lis own ma-sngs and Matching
chicks from his own eggs must follow
we'll worked out plan in breeding for
egg pro, action and keeping Z iign
average flock egg production. Many
plans have h1en proposed, but the fol-
lowing has proved most successful
after number of years Of operation.
THE high producing hens must be
selected in the following manner. The
first pullets TO lay in the fall are
bands, and TIE number recorded with
the date Of the lay. Colored spiral
celluloid bands are also placed on their
EGGS to indicate time Of maturity. The
/ as, al plan is to divide this into 3-week
periods, blue band indicating the
first birds to mature, red spiral
shose maturing the next 3weeks and
yellow the third period. The object

maturing birds are the highest pro-
ducers, the ones that start TO lay early
are the persistent layers and late
moulters.
The broody periods are recorded by
spiral bands, white on the leg of
each bird each time it goes broody.
A bird persisteneiy broody soon ac-
cumulates large number of these
white bands, and will be discarded as
a breeder because Of this wasteful
/ instinct.
ANY sick bird is marked with a
black band, which quickly disting
luishcs her as IN undesirable breeder
at the end of the pullet year. Such
birds should not be used as breeders.
In the fall when the birds are fin-
ishing their first years production
they are bander with colored spiral
hands to indicate the time Of moult.
The yellow band will indicate the early
moulter, in August and September;
the red an October moulter, and the
blue one moulting in November or
later. If management conditions have
been correct it will usually be found
that birds banded with blue spirals the
previous September will also have q
blue band in November the following
year, indicating birds Of high pro-
duction that have laid persistently
for long period. In other words, two
blue bands indicate high production;

The other day a prominent leader
in agricultural work gave talk by
radio. He wasn't trying to get votes,
money, or support of any kind from
the farmer and so he simply told the
truth. Thousands of letters and cards
from all parts of the United States
came in to him during the following
week. This made it evident that he
sounded out the opinions of most pro-
gressive farmers.
Agricultural conditions" he said,
"can be improved in two ways: by
economical production and by scientific
marketing"
Don't fall for everything because II
is called cooperative" he said. But
keep an open mind toward those mar
keting enterprises which seek to get
your product to the consumer in n
more efficient way than 1t is now get
ting there. II the project sounds busi-
nesslille, If the promoter talks as
though he knows something about bust
ness-lf the plan OF distribution Is
similar to those plans which have al
ready been successful, then it may be
well to lend your support.
"You will have a long wait, how
ever" he added, "if you are looking for
relief through the growth of co-opera
tive marketing enterprises. In the
mean time it might be well to test
your seed corn and raise your produc'
tion from eighty or ninety bushels Ia
the acre to two or three hundred bush.
els. Then you can make as much as
you are making now by cultivating
less land and doing less work.
"Or get into COW testing associa.
tion and get rid of the Improbable
cow, or learn to Gull your flocks, and
I then raise only the hens which pay
their own way. Or grow more alfalfa
and soy beans and buy less ready mix
ed feed"
This was his advice to the farmer
who Is tired Of waiting for relief from
the politician and the clever talking
promoter.

Endorse Baker

To the citizenship of Randolph county:
We, a number of the ex-ser~ice men
of the late World War, desire to call
your attention to the candidacy of our
friend and your friend, Rufus X.
Baker. for sheriff Of Randolph county.
Baker is an honest, hard working
country boy who has risen to positions
of honor and trust by industry and
hard work. He, like many other Ran
dOlph county boys, volunteered when
his country called, and was overseas
in the front line trenches for nine long
months. If his services were appre-
ciated by you, why not show us by
electing him as our next sheriff and
collector of Randolph county?
We feel that Baker is sure winner
in this fight, as all his buddies are
behind him. He has fine showing
among his civilian friends and this
vote, with the vote of the boys will put
him over. I'VE fought together, let's
stick together" 1t is his time now;
1t may be yours in short time. Let's
go over the top.
Hoping that you may all see ft TO
give Baker your vote and earnest sup
port next Tuesday.
Sincerely yours,
ADV. His Comrades In Arms.
