oDDlTY.

What is oddity? The Century Dictionary says: "The quality of beng odd; singularity; strangeness whimsicality;" but is also reminds us that odd may mean singular in excellence; unique; sole; hence, peerless
 Now I am disposed to think that oddity is the great lack of the day; yet it is the pressing need. This is the one thing we all shrink from 1; consequently we are all like peas in pod, we all walk in the same rut, we adopt the same lingo.
 Do not misunderstand me. The oddity I mean is not the assumption of something ridiculous or different from everybody. else, with the ex- press purpose of becoming odd; but rather that which is the natural se- quence- of an uncompromising fideli- ty.
 Who, then, will be an odd man wholly and solely for Christ's sake bearing his reproach in places where he is despised?

TIME TO FATTEN CHICKENS
FOR THE HOLIDAY MARKETS

Early autumn is the time poultry
raisers will usually find advantage
Gus to fatten and dispose of surplus
cOckerels as well as early Matched
pullets of a quality not desired in
the flock of winter layers. Market
poultry prices are usually highest
just before Thanksgiving and
Christmas. Another advantage in
selling surplus stock fairly early in
the season is found in the saving of
considerable food material.
DR.. M. A. JUL, poultry husband
man, United States Department of
Agriculture, recommends as fat
tening ration a soft mash, measured
by weight, composed of corn,
parts; oatmeal, parts; middlings,
parts; and beef scrap, part. The
ground grain should be mixed thor
oughly and moistened with sour
skim milk or buttermilk. Milk is
excellent in fattening mixtures and
about pounds, or a quart of milk
is used to each pound of mash.
Care should be taken not to feed
the birds too much during the early
part of the fattening period. For
the first few days of this diet feed
lightly three times aday. For the
rest of the period give the birds all
they will eat three times a day but
do not leave it before them. A 4
pound cockerel should add a pound
in two weeks. Four pounds of the
grain ration may produce a pound
gain.
Experienced fatteners sometimes
keep poultry on the fattening feed
for as long as three weeks, but in
most commercial fattening plants
the birds are fattened for from z to
10 days. There is often difference
of 5 cents a pound between the
market price of thin and plump
birds. However, farmers in many
parts of the country may not find
such advantageous marketing OPP
portunities, and the prices received
may not pay for the expense and
bother of fattening the birds. In
such cases it may prove wisest to
sell direct with no attempt to fatten
the fowls. Many such birds are
bought at the markets by fatteners
and continued and fattened for re-
sale.
