Fosters meeting was advertised
only through the Communist and

the papers being weekly organs. 1t

The Green meeting had boosting
for it the full force of the capitalist

Green had a little distribution,
too, however. Members of the TUUL

The distributors of this leaflet

too late.

Economical Egg Ration
for Summer Production

Sixty per cent of the cost of egg
production is usually feed cost, II.
III. Alp, University of Illinois, told
farmers at Urbana recently.
1t is to the advantage of every
pOultryman TO use good ratiOns but
as cheap ones as possible while
eggs must sell for 20 cents a dozen
or less.
An economical ration at present
grain prices can be made by using
1g5 pounds yellow corn, 100 pounds
of ground wheat, 100 pounds
ground oats, 100 pounds meat
scrap and five pounds salt. The
price of this ration should be
around $1.65 a hundred.

MINERAL SUPPLY
MAY CAUSE ILLS
Small Amount Only Needed
With Meat Scraps.

Too much mineral in the chick
ration may cause as much trouble
as too little, declares +. B. Zula-
bro, extension specialist in poul-
try husbandry for the Ohio State
university.
An OverSupply of mineral may
cause abnormal bone development
in young chicks, and be responsible
for chicks going down on their
legs" just as too little mineral may
be responsible for subnormal de
velopment of bone.
If plenty of meat scrap and skim
milk is included in the ration for
chicks from Matching time to ten
weeks of age, there is need for but
little mineral materials in the ra-
ton, Zumbro says. Meat scraps
contain 20 to % per cent of lime
and calcium, the two minerals that
make up 75 per cent of the ash in
chickens, and one-tenth of the to-
tai solids in skimmilk is phos-
phOrus and calcium.
More minerals are required In
the ration when some form of veg
etable protein is substituted for
meat scraps, or when a high-pro-
tein meat scrap is used, he says.
Zumbro recommends a ration con
tanning 40 pounds of ground yellow
corn, 10 pounds of middlings, .
pounds of bran. 10 pounds of oats,
and, to supply the minerals, Il
pounds of meat scrap, 3 pounds of
dried milk, and l pound of salt.
Some pOultrymen are mistakenly
reducing the amount of cod liver
oil fed in the ration if plenty of
minerals are fed. The cod liver oil
is necessary to supply the vitamins
which enable the chicks 10 assim-
ilate the minerals into bone, Zum-
bro explains.

Market Infertile Eggs
for Superior Quality

POultrymen who cater To mar
kets demanding prime quality eggs
may experience difficulty in meet
ing such demand during hot
weather unless their eggs are infer
tile. Such is the belief of Prof.
William c. Thompson, poultry hus-
bandman for the New Jersey az
ricultural station, who explains
that germ development of fertile
eggs begins at a temperature of 6S
degrees Fahrenheit. Once the
breeding season is passed, he adds.
there is no reason to continue pro
ducing fertile eggs, as the pres
ence of male birds is never essen
tial to egg production.

Good Poultry Ration

There is no one best ration for
goslings or for any other kind of
poultry. The United States De-
partment of Agriculture in their
bulletin on goose raising recon-
mends the following management
of goslings: No feed for at least
SO hours. Then dry bread soaked
in either milk or water with fine
chopped hard-bOiled egg added.
Feed several times a day with
chopped grass or some other form
of green feed for at least the first
two or three weeks.

Save Some Broilers

1t adds to the pleasure Of pOul-
try farming if you can retain some
of the broilers instead of selling
chem all when they weigh two
pounds each. Keep them until
hey weigh about four pounds
each or more, depending on the
breed, and they make excellent
roasters for home use during the
fall. These birds should be of the
quality suited for breeding pur-
poses as this permits the poultry.

Art of Caponizing Is
Profitable Operation

Poultry raisers who can spare
little time should study up the art
of caponizing. Capons demand
good price upon the market. and
are always in good demand. The
operation process is easily learned
and is so profitable that it pays
any poultryman to try his hand at
it. The slips are not lost, and if
you kill a few by practicing you
can sell the carcass on the market
or use it for home consumption. OF
course it is necessary that you have
proper tools to do this work, but
these can be purchased at poultry
supply stores anywhere.

Prevent Disease

Losses from pullOrum disease or
bacillary white diarrhea occur
mostly during the first month of
the chicks life. This disease can
not be cured. The best way TO
put a stop to the losses is to buy
or raise chicks from healthy par
ent stock and to be sure that all in
cubators and other equipment have
been thoroughly cleaned and dis
infected. The infection may be
transmitted from the breeding stock
through the egg or the chicks may
contract it in the incubator.

Senorita MEGA has light, high
soprano voice with clear. silvery tone,
her ability In brilliant colo-atura
passages not marring the legato.
She showed to particular advantage
in the famous aria from David's

tones blending with the instrument.
The group of three short songs which
she sang were all from the works of
Cuban composers and she was ac-

SIX-HOUR DAY PLAN
PROVES SUCCESSFUL
Cereal Company Adopts System
Permanently After Finding
Many Advantages.
a. &c Associated Press.

r. the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April l5.-The six-ho,Ir
working day will be adopted as a pernla-
nent operating policy by the Kellogg
CO. cereal manufacturers, Battle Greek,
Mich.
Lewis J. Brown, president Of the COM
pany announced yesterday the COM
pany's experiment with the plan since
December had proven profitable for
both stockholders and employees.
Production was increased, he said.
Consumption was stimulated, overhead
was decreased.
Since inauguration of the plan the
company has worked four shifts in its
plant six hours each to replace the
former three shifts of eight hours EACH
At the same time it increased the base
wage l2i2 per cent
The plan was originally put into force
as an emergency measure to relieve
unemployment in Battle Creek and 20
per cent more workers we're added.
President Brown said the company dis
covered many unexpected advantages.
Each shift has equal advantages, :"
he said This eliminated the need for
extra allowances for any shift and also
eliminated the stop for meals. The
efficiency is greater than when working
on an eight-hour basis
He said that under the eight-hour
system production slowed before meals
and was slow to pick up after meals.
also the monotony OF repetitious work
caused carelessness and waste toward
the end of the e:gnt-hour day.
AZ definite advantages to the en-
ployes he listed more leisure time for
recreation; opportunity 10 cultivate
farms or gardens; time to pursue
educational courses or other cultural
activities: increased incentive to pre-
pare for mana gerial jobs: less fatigue;
decreased cost of living with all meals
at hcme: less waste time; opportunity
for mothers who must support children
to earn a living and yet care for their
families: greater assurance Of a steady
job
