democracy" Plan Not
Needed in Illinois

Technocracy, or perhaps it might
better be termed democracy" has
appeared in the poultry industry,
but the owners of Illinois 100000
6ocks need not resort to it in or
der to get benefits, says II. II. Alp,
poultry extension specialist Of the
college OF agriculture. University of
Illinois. All they need do Is fol.
low the Illinois poultry sanitation
plan as outlined and advocated by
the college, he said.
democracy" is Alps name for
the new system under which hens
are kept In individual metal coops
assembled in battery form. In Mi
ami, Fla, for instance, 10000 laying
hens were placed in batteries in a
J00-roOm hotel The concentration
of so many birds in one building is
made possible through the use of
batteries equipped with labor-saving
devices for cleaning the equipment
and caring for the birds. The hen
Is even deprived of an opportunity
To admire her egg. for as soon as
it is laid, it rolls into a trough to
be gathered.
The practical lesson in this for
flock owners is the strict sanitary
conditions under which the hens are
kept, Alp pointed out. Much the
same benefits which this close con-
finement gives in the form of disease
and parasite control can be obtained
by Illinois flock owners through fol
lowing the colleges poultry santa

POULTRY BUSINESS
LEADS MANY OTHERS
Gross Value Exceeded Only
by Corn, Hogs, Milk.

Feeding and care of chicks from
the start in manner to keep them
going right toward their fall job Of
filling egg baskets next fall and
winter, or fitting them for dining
table decoration in as short time
as possible brings out the best skill
and knowledge possessed by the
poultryman and his wife.
American hens produce less than
one egg day for the entire popula-
ton, yet the total is 2,70O,000,000
dozen eggs each year. The poul-
try industry of the United States
is estimated at 333,OO0,OOO in
value
American hens and their products
exceed in value all the cows and
calves in the country-six times the
value Of all sheep and lambs, five
times the value of all farm ma
chinery-half the value of all the
motor cars we ride in.
1eSi lHe pOuilIy DuSlueSS Is one vi
the principal agricultural indus
tries in the country. It's gross value
is exceeded only by corn. hogs and
milk among the farm products. This
husky farm industry nearly equals
the value of all the metals produced
in the United States in a year
1t is greater than the value of all
the soft coal and is more than three
times the value of hard coal pro-
duced. 1t is double the total of all
postal revenues, including stamps,
money orders and postal savings. 1t
is more than one-seventh of the to-
tai stock of money in the United
States. Certainly poultry raising is
a leading industry.
Gull the flock carefully. so that
only producers are left. Start with
strong chicks Of your favorite breed.
Feed and tend them with best skill
and care. The markets will always
call for best poultry products, and
will be ready to pay for them.-Wis

WOMEN ACTIVE IN
WORLD OF TRADE

Woman's place may be in the
home, out the annual reports Just
issued by numerous leading corpo-
rations ih the United States disclose
that she is qISo making place for
herself in the financial world through
the medium of stock ownership. A
few years ago the names of women
were seldom found on the rolls of
stockholders, but If figures are to be
believed feminine investors are en-
croaching steadily on field hitherto
dominated by men.
Furthermore, the women are not
content merely to own a few or many
shares of stock and sit idly by and
let the men run affairs. Many wom-
en- today are members of the boards
of large corporatiOns-and they are
not mere figureheads. They are ac-
tive members and the men have come
to respect their judgment.
Stock records indicate that the
women like railroad shares. One
great railroad has 250,5O6 sharehold-
ers as Of last January 1, and of this
number 10S,210 are women, or 1919
per cent of the total. With an aver
age holding of 80 shares they owned
1927 per cent of the outstanding
stock.
Brokers who have handled their
purchases say that the women are
uncommonly wise in their selections,
most of them excelling male in
vestors in this respect. Moreover,
when they lose they prove themselves
to be good sports and accept their
losses with good grace-St. Louis

from an exporter and raised to ma.
turlty. While the more impressive

species. the African, is a formidable

contrast to the evil-tempered pachy-
derm, with the deadly horn and the
tiny, piglike eyes, is the good-na-
tured hippopotamus. as genial as he
is fat.
Elephants From India.
Circus elephants, almost without
exception, come from India. Their
African cousins, though larger, are
much harder to handle and have
proved pretty generally useless In
circuses except for display pur-
poses. Jumbo was an African and
he was stubborn, like the rest of his
four-footed countrymen. One night
many years ago, In st. Thomas, Ont,
Jumbo got into an argument with a
freight train on the wrong track,
with the result that his funeral was
held the following morning.
Indian elephants are natural
actors and enjoy doing tricks in the
big show. They are quick to learn.
once they realize what is expected
OF them, and their ears are tuned
TO applause like those of a born
trouper. Most OF them are surpris-
ingly good-natured, and they are
so anxious about a firm footing that
in most cases they will not volun-
tarily step on a man. Giraffes are
captured by means Of lasso, and
often an African-born giraffe will
be seen to have about two inches Of
hair missing from his stubby name

Cater to Appetites

When birds are out of condition,
feed should be given according to
their appetites. When they regain
their health and appetites, the reg
,ular feeds and schedule of feeding
can be gradually resumed. Even
with layers in the prime of condi-
ton, it pays to cater to their appe-
tites as no two flocks are likely to
have the same tastes. One flock
will prefer one kind of grain or
mash and another will prefer some
thing else. 1t pays to give them what
they want.

POULTRY HINTS

evidence that the lasso was instru-
mental in his capture.
The big circus cats, unless born
on the show, are captured In the
jungle regions with traps and pits
covered with young goats. A new
method of capturing wild beasts
alive involves shooting them with a
gas bullet that puts the animal to
sleep without pain. When the crea-
ture wakes up he finds himself a
prisoner. These recently perfected
gas bullets are said to be capable OF
bringing down a lion or a tiger at
distance of 2CJ feet. But circus ami
mails from the four corners of the
earth are imported for a far more
interesting purpose than mere ex-
hibition. Many of them are edu-
Gated. In the circus classroom" the
natural enemies of the jungles are
taught to tolerate one another.
Mystery Of circusdom.
Much of the mystery of circus
dom lies in the moving of this minia-
ture cosmos, with its cltiZenry Of
animals and people from every
cline, and In the pitching OF the
tents that compose the canvas city.
The largest circus carries It's own
doctor, lawyers, detectives. barber
shop, blacksmith shop. fire depart
ment, chefs, business experts. and
postal service. and 1t travels on 100
railroad cars in four sections. There
are long, steel fiat cars for the
wagons and other vehicles; huge box
cars for the hundreds of horses, ele-
plants. camels, llamas. zebras; COM
modious sleeping cars for the per-
formers. staff, and laborers.

 For Two Years H

Washington, Sept 7--(UP) -.4 Rear Admiral Richard D. Byrd, polar explorer, announced at tho White House today that he would sail Sept 25. from Boston for a two-year exploration voyage to tho antarctic. Byrd called to say good- bye to President Roosevelt before departing with two ships, the old revenue cutter Bear and the sup- ply vessel Pacific Fir, for Little America, his base on the antarctic ice.
 T am going to attempt to ex- plore an uncharted land as large a0 the United States and Mexico cou1- bined," Byrd explained.
 He added that he expected to do 10 times as much flying as on hi1 previous trip to antarctic when 10 flew from his base over the south pole and back.
 T am going to attempt to fiy beyond the pole this time" Byr4 said, for there is where the great unchartered area lies. As long aa there is such a vast territory un~' known by man existing on the faco of the globe believe 1t necessary to investigate. We will live In an| ice age. look for q new continent and at the same time serve 10 fo 12 branches of science"
 Byrd said that he was hopeful with his fellow explorers to pro- vide for science some of the n1isss ing links in the chain of facts. s,
 Harold June will be Byrd's chief air pilot. The admiral will do the navigating and some of the relief piloting. <
 He revealed that his expedition would be larger than the first one established at Little America. He is' taking with him 70 men, 150s sledge dogs and 14,000 different items of food and supplies.

PRISONERS IN MILLION DOLLAR
 JAIL PROTEST
Have Sanitary Water and Radios in C els But Object to Cuisine ID in Solitary

Billerica. Mass, Sept. 7-(UP)- Nineteen prosiners 'at the million dollar Middlesex county jail, where inmates drink from a sanitary bub- bier and have radios in their cells, were in solitary confinement to- day because of their militant pro- tests against the cuisine.
 Four of the prisoners were put in solitary after refusing to work in the cannery Monday because it was Labor Day. The other Is were punished in similar fashion after they had created disturbances Monday and Tuesday nights as ges- trres of sympathy for the four all 1sady confined. Officials of the model prison said an underlying factor was protest against food served.
 Sheriff John F. Fairbairn of Middlesex county sent Joseph M. McElroy. assistant master of the East Cambridge jail. to Billerica to investigate the situation. McEl- roy reported on his return that 1t seemed to be "a question whether the jail should be run by prison CTS or the duly-constituted author ities."
