Former Representative William D.

rays address as most unfortunate
Mr.. Upshaw said
1T is most unfortunate that Gov.
Murray, after having declared himself

original prop6s1Ulon and not even con-

Gov Murray's plan for regional liquor
control was set forth in considerably
more detail in his prepared speech than
in the address he actually delivered
In his advance copy he said:
Some have suggested that it will be
necessary to repeal the eighteenth
amendment and leave to each State the
settlement of the question. That will

Barley Not Sufficient
for Fattening Turkeys

Here is the advice given by Pro-
fessor Halpin, Wisconsin College of
Agriculture, to an inquirer who
asks about the plan of fattening
turkeys on barley:
'Tn reply to your letter, would
say that if l were you, would not
depend upon barley alone for fat
tening turkeys, but would use a
combination of barley and corn or
barley, wheat and corn. In addi-
tion to this | should want to feed
some milk. Barley alone is incom-
plete. Barley and green grass and
milk would bring your turkeys
along fairly well. A combination,
though, of barley with corn or bar
ley with corn and wheat and the
milk would give you, on an average,
more satisfactory gains. Barley is
good poultry grain, but like all the
other grains must be supplemented
with these other things to get good
results.
81 note you have to buy corn. /
would urge you to buy good, dry,
old corn. l wouldn't feed turkeys

EGGS FOR MARKET
AND FOR HATCHING
Point for Poultry Breeder to
Consider.

The poultry breeder must and can
count his chicks before they hatch,
If he manages his breeding flock
properly, says G. F. Heuser of the
New York State College of Agricul-
ture. In addition to large numbers
of eggs, the flock must lay eggs
that are fertile and that are capa-
BILE of producing chicks that are
healthy and vigorous. Feed makes
the difference between good and
poor Matching eggs, he says.
Two pens of hens at Cornell laid,
On the average, 211 eggs to the hen
in year, satisfactory number
but one pens eggs hatched 27.5 per
cent, and the other hatched TIA of
the fertile eggs that were set in
February. The two pens received
two different ratiOns, both salts
factory for egg-laying but not
equally satisfactory for Matching
purposes.
w CIShI may DC uo6u dS an AlANIi-
cation of health. Hens gaining or
maintaining their weight show the
best matches, while those losing
weight suffer most. Hens with
yellow color in the shanks have
eggs that hatch better than those
with faded shanks, because the
presence of the color indicates a
better surplus of fat and vitamins.
Intensive laying and long-laying
periods previous to the Matching
season may result in lowered
hatchability, since it is difficult to
maintain high production and the
weight Of the birds at the same
time.
A lack of vitamins, especially,
has shown unfavorable results.
Experiments conducted at Cornell
show cod-liver oil improved hatch
ability 10 to 25 per cent, depending
on the severity of the conditions
under which the hens were kept.
The inclusion of green food In
creased the hatchability to 10 per
cent, and the feeding of milk 5 to
Is per cent.
The Coolidge examiner., 1932-03-25
Leg Weakness

When chicks wobble about and
lose control of their legs it is al!
most too late to make real good
pullets from them. Leg weakness
should be prevented by getting
chicks out into the direct rays of
the sun as early as possible and as
much as possible. Where chicks are
confined and do not have sunshine,
there must be 1 per cent of fortified
cod-liver Oil in the mash. Green
feed is a real help. There are eiec-
trio light bulbs which give off
enough ultra violet rays to prevent
leg weakness.-Oklahoma Farmer
Stockman.
The Coolidge examiner., 1932-03-25
Green Feeds for Hens

Ground yellow carrots can be sub
stituted for green feed for chickens
in winter rations if fresh green feed
cannot be provided. Chopped al
falfa hay or alfalfa meal is another
substitute feed that gives satisfac-
tory results. If possible every
laying flock should have some
sprouted grain each day. In a test
run in a western state hens with
green feed each day produced 6S
cents more income per hen during
the year over those that did not re-
ceive this kind Of feed.-Prairie
Farmer.

in spots. Much of the time
they were filled with gloom and
fear and resentment. Things
frightened you, confused you,
hurt you terribly. You felt that
everyone was picking on you,
or laughing at you. For you
were still living in the raw .
you still had acquired no cover
ing for yourself. You began to
see that you were not only the
only person on earth.
You began to forget yourself,
once in a. while. And when
you forgot yourself, you dis
covered that there were other
people around you. and that
other people had things hap
pening to them too. things
which seemed quite as impor-
tant to them as your expert
ences seemed to you. When
you realized that, your own
experiences no longer seemed
so important, or so terr1fy-
ing. For if others could sur
vive. if others could manage
to be happy and brave and
strong and calm in the midst
of this hullabaloo, SO could you.
And so you acquired a cover
in for your naked egotism
a protection of understanding.
sympathy, tolerance, philosophy.
And your individual life no
longer was so TRAGICALLY'
PERSONAL. It became part
of a vast. impersonal perfor-
nance in which others were
involved as much as you.

And now you're not naked.
Now you have a decently
clothed human spirit. E.
.OR HAVE YOU?
That's the way life should
have gone with you-but per-
haps it hasn't. Perhaps you're
still taking life on the raw,
though you have lived for
30 or 40 or so years. Many
people do. Many people never
acquire a covering for their
spirits. Some never learn that
they can acquire a covering.
Some don't want a covering!
They pride themselves on "be-

taking things personally. And
so they make misery for them
selves and are a nuisance to
everyone who knows them.

Everything worth having in

And, it's worth any price you

timid, gray souls, who have
never loved or lost, never thrill

and died without a touch of
glamour or ecstasy in their

we're afraid to love, for fear
they might be disappointed or
