Portland, Ore, Oct. 5.-(P)-Forest

flames that had swept over thousands

The postoffice, store, service

Forest service officials said they
believed rain would be the only eff

California border. The weather bu-
Teau forecast continued dry weather.
Although hundreds of lives have
been imperiled by the fires, only one
has been lost. Damage in the Coch-

fighters at more than 100000.

"rhese measures representing the

Many Of these battles have been

continued, without the cheers of the

Electric Light Speeds
Up ACTIVITY" of Biddy

The modern chicken farm which
matches all of its chickens in ineu-
batOrs also uses electric light to en-
courage egg production, especially
for the Easter season. This method
has passed beyond the experimental
stage and many large scale chicken
raising establishments are now en-
ploying it with marked success.
From early November to the be-
ginning of April the days work of
hen is unduly shortened by lack of
daylight. But when the days during
that period are artiflcially length
ened by the use of electric light in
the fowl houses, the hens stay
awake, scratch about more, eat more
food. and lay more eggs.
That is the whole theory, and 1t
works out in practice. A very i'm
portant part of its value lies in the
fact that during the period from No
vember to the end of March eggs
usually cost the consumer more, and
so bring a much better profit TO the
producer.
1t has been found that hens sub
jected to the electric light treat
ment, however, do not necessarily

Costly losses from troublesome
round worms that sap vitality and
produce runts in the poultry flock
may be prevented by taking three
simple precautions. The first step
in protecting the chick crop against
round worms is complete isolation
of the chicks from the adult birds.
This is most easily accomplished
by keeping the laying flock either
confined to the laying house or con-
fined to a limited range. 1t may al
so be done by brooding the chicks
on ground which has not been used
for poultry or where poultry ma
nure has not been spread for at
least two years, and where the
adult birds cannot come in contact
with the chicks.
The second step is to take precau-
tions in preventing the carrying of
infective material on the shoes,
buckets and equipment when the
poultryman is walking from the lay
ing house to the brooding quarters.
Frequent cleaning of the poultry
buildings and the removal of ma
nure to some distant field where it
should be spread thinly is the third
step in controlling this dreaded pest
of the farm flock. If this is not
practical, a manure pit constructed
to keep out the flies, insects, and
rodents will not only aid in the pre-
vention Of round worm infestation,
but will also tend to prevent the
spread of tapeworms from adult
birds to the growing chicks.

Tell-Tale Invention

Feed Mixtures on Which
Chickens Will Thrive

A good mash feed for chicks,
when milk is the only drink, Is
mixed as follows: 80 pounds of
ground yellow corn. 100 pounds of
wheat bran, 100 pounds of oat -four,
IS pounds of wheat shorts or mid
dlings and 80 pounds of high-grade
meat scrap.
When the chicks do not have ac-
to green leafy feed, five pounds of
alfalfa leaf meal should be added
to each 100 pounds of the mash,
says the Dakota Farmer. If meat
and bone scrap are not used. three
pounds OF bone meal should be in
cluded to each 100 pounds of mash.
One pound of sifted table salt and
one pint of high-grade cod-liver oil
per 100 pounds of the mash should
be mixed in. The cod-llver oil
should be mixed with the bran first

nSTRICH is the latest news In
~ the world of fashion. Unless
signs fail we are standing at the
threshold of an era of ostrich such
rs has not been for years We are
going TO trim our evening frocks
with lots Of ostrich and adOrn our
hats with ostrich fancies. French
milliners are even now making lit
tie turbans of fiat ostrich. and we
are going TO wear ostrich feather
boas. Fashion reports as to the
costumes worn by smart, Pari
siennes at the recent races make fire.
Quent mention of handsome acces-
sOries and the latest cOuturier col
lections confirm coming revival of
it's vogue.
The treatments in ostrich are
varied. A much featured fashion
is that of the little shoulder cape
which is bordered in ostrich. The
standing figure TO the right in the

typifies this new movement. The
idea is to harmonic the color of
the ostrich so that II will blend into

Feather picking is a mean habit

Poultry Outlook

The poultryman has led all of his
fellow farmers in adjusting supply
to demand. Four hens, on an aver
age, have been taken out of every
farm flock in the United States or
about 20,OO0,OO0 hens. In addition
fewer chicks have been hatched, so
much of a decrease in fact that
some forecast a shortage of eggs
next winter. Prices are bound to
reflect this adjustment just as they
will in every. other agricultural
product when the same adjustment
takes place-EXchange.

Let Sun Shine In

On warm days the fronts of poul-
try houses should be thrown open
so that the sunlight may get into
the house and on the birds. 1t will
help keep the flock strong and
healthy in addition to keeping the
house dry. Sunlight not only aids
in improving the health of the flock,
but also tends to increase laying
and to improve the shell strength of
eggs, states E. w. Henderson, Iowa
State college. Soft-shelled eggs
often result from insufficient sun
light.
