dents in her business career was her
insistence upon a brilliant red door,
as part of the modernistic scheme of
her present building front. The ar
chitects all but collapsed at the idea.
She made one architect walk all over
town criticizing other doorways, and
finally he gave in. She got her door,
way.
She spends as much time as pos
sible on a farm in Maine, which she
calls the Maine Chance. She keeps
an English butler who designed a
uniform to match the store-a flam-
ing red tie and a slick white coat.
Her estate is near the water and
she keeps both aquaplaneS and mo-
torboats at hand. When she first
took over the old farm, she kept 60
men at work until she arranged the
grounds and house to suit her tastes.
It Is now, two years later, one of
the Maine showplaces. She finds the
attention it gets somewhat embar-

are routed past the grounds.

Tracey himself killed Sprague to
protect his wife, not only from
scandal. but from a charge of muir

honestly, do you think Tracey Miles

her?'

When he had finished reading the

have been if Flora had confessed to
him Saturday night that she had

(Which was not my theory, if you

ment is gaining strength in the
northwest.
Industrial workers are seeking
information about farming cond.
ditions and low priced farm land
In the northwest, according to e.
G.. Leedy. general agricultural
development agent of the Great
Northern Railway. who says his
department has received more
than 10000 inquiries during the
year and that the number OF in
quiries Is continually increasing.
To encourage this back-to-the-
farm movement, the Great North
ern has announced low round trip
homeseekers' excursion rates Of
one fare, plus two dollars, accord
ing to MIR. Leedy. These special
rates will go into effect In Febru-
airy, and tickets will be sold every
Tuesday thereafter to points in
Minnesota, North Dakota, and
Montana, and on the first and
third Tuesday of each month to
points In Idaho, eastern Washing
ton, and eastern Oregon. The
tickets allow s%top-overs both go
ing and coming, and are good for
a twenty-one days trip.
Mr.. Leedy said that many Of the
inquiries come from farmers In
this territory, who were attracted
to the cities by high wages.
Many of the others are young
men who grew up on farms and
now, on account of uncertainty Of
employment in the cities, want to
return to farming.
Good farm land now can be OBJ
tanned at the lowest price in years
and the opportunity to r%e-establish

ness is better than it has been
for many years." said Mr.. Leedy.
Farmers today are able to
lower their production costs by
reason of this lower priced land,
and by taking advantage of new
resources in the growing of feed
crops and the raising of livestock.
They are able to produce beef,
pork, mutton and butter fat profit

COD LIVER OIL ADVISED
FOR ROUPY CHICKENS

Many pountry raisers in Roose.
welt county are troubled with a
poultry ailment that causes the
chickens to become weak, and
light and eventually it causes
death. The more serious Eases are
causing the owner much concern
as he sees his flock diminish in
numbers and the individual birds
lose in weight. Many minor cases
ire being overlooked.
Further symptims mentioned In
the inquiries directed to the Ex-
tension office mention swelled
heads, a roupy condition with a
discharge from the nostrils, swol-
len eyes and a general lack Of
thrift.
In many cases the condition
described above in caused by i'm
proper feeding. A straight grain
and water ration is very apt to
produce Just such conditions in
any flock. Plenty of feed If of the
wrong kind will not correct the
trouble in the least.
Cod liver oil has been used with
considerable success to correct
this trouble which arises as the
need of vitamins becomes more
acute. Green vegetables, roots,
green cured alfalfa and sometimes
yellow corn are all beneficial but
are not as effective nor do they
give as rapid results as cod liver
oil.
The oil may be administered by
mixing a couple of tablespoons OF
oil with a quart of corn or wheat
and scattering so each and every
chicken will receive their proper
portion. on fed three or four
times a week should check losses
and put the flock in thrifty condi-
