POULTRY SHOWS
WAY TO PROFITS
Continued From Page One)

have the advantage of being in feed
surplus territory where feed prices are
low in comparison to the prices east
ern produce must pay for feed. Cold
storage supplies of poultry products
are six per cent below last year and
nine per cent less than average Cold
storage supplies of eggs are SO per
cent below last year and 70 percent
less than average
Poultry proved to be the most prof
liable enterprise on the majority of
those farms on which farm accounts
We're kept last year.
The poultry business is not all profit
however. As commercial poultry rails
ing advances and the industry attains
greater magnitude the problems in
volved become more intricate. Each
year hens must produce more eggs at
the period of high prices in order to
maintain satisfactory margin of
profit. This means that an orderly
breeding program, supported by well
organized plan for rearing chicks and
caring for the layers must be adopted
to attain success.
Poultry diseases and parasites cause
tremendous losses annually among
growing chicks. Outbreaks of cocci-
diosis and intestinal parasites come
unannounced and it sometimes seems
from nowhere.
The successful poultryman must be
ever alert and practice all the meth
DDS known to poultry science in order
to avoid introduction of diseases. The
science of feeding and brooding has
been developed far beyond the meth
DDS of decade ago.
Profit in poultry business depends
largely on egg production during the
high price months. Egg prices are
highest during the fall and early win
ter months.
The first requirement of high egg
production is good breeding Chicks
must come from ancestors of high pro-
duction if they are to produce. Any
one who expects to get anyplace with
poultry must start with good chicks
of known origin. Cheap chicks are
generally the most expensive in the
end.
Chicks should be started so that
they will come into production early
in the fall. Leghorns will start laying
comparatively heavy in five or six
mcnths. Heavy breeds take from six
to seven months to come into produc-
ton.
Only healthy pullets will produce
profitably. There are seven points
which lead to healthy pullets and
profit. They are: clean chicks, clean
feeding, clean ground, clean manage
ment, and good set of complete rec
ords.
The saying that there is more in the
feeder than in the feed holds true in
the poultry business.
The Extension Service is ready to
help Madison county poultrymen with
their poultry problems.

A general reduction in the total ma
tional acreage of crops is to be ex-
pccted, the board announced.
5000, O,000-Acre Drop Seen
The board added that, Judging from
reports, final estimates of 1888 har-
vests are expected to show decreases
in acreages of corn, wheat, oats, Bar
ley, Rye, flaxseed, rice, potatoes and
peanuts.
"These decreases" the report said,
s'are expected to be partially offset by
increases in tobacco, hay, grain sorg-
huns, and soy beams"
The total acreage in principal crops
other than cotton, on which no esti-
mates are made, appears likely to fall
below last years total by some 9,000,-
900 acres or about 8 per cent, the
board said
Potatoes, on which Ohio acreage in
creased, is forecast to be about 5.4 per
cent smaller than the acreage Of last
year on national basis.
Present Intentions, the board found
indicate somewhat greater reduction
than was shown in reports of Jan. J.

Of rain water. Apply this So
luton to the scalp immedi-
ately after you have Shampooed
your hair and use it several
times a week, applying it with
a cotton pledget.
For the dry dandruff, use /
pint Of bay rum mixed with "a
of a teacup of table salt, " a
dram of castor oil, and u Of a
dram of tincture Of cantharides.
Apply this the same way as d.
rected in the case of oily
dandruff.
Before using either of these
tonics, try giving yourself a
hot oil shampoo instead of a
plain shampoo. Massage castor
oil or olive oil we'll into the
scalp, leaving it on overnight if
possible. If you cannot leave it
on at night, be sure to steam it
thoroughly into the scalp by
applying hot towels to the head.
Then shampoo it out, using
pure CASTLE soap (and be sure
it is real castile). The soap
should be melted after you have
shaved some of it into a little
pan and mixed it with water.
Apply this to the wet hair and
give yourself several new soap
ings, rinsing the hair thor
ughly after each application Of
soap.

are golf outfits that are par
TALLY made of chamois. The
newest we've seen has a tweed
S ;irt, a blouse of chamois with
sleeves knitted of wool that
matches the skirt, and a hat of
the material of the skirt. We've
photographed it for you, and
it comes in brown with natural
chamois, and with either yellow
or rose beige knitted in with the
brown and combined in the
tweed. Wood buttons are used
for fastening. It's $16.95, sizes
IL to 20.
A Suede Jacket
Over this suit it's smart to
wear a brown chamois jacket,
or a leather coat, if you need a
wrap. Brown golf gloves and
shoes are correct for playing
golf, or plain sports shoes if you
wear the costume for general
sports.

Correct
Manners
BY MRS. CORNELIUS
BEECKMAN

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Will you please tell me how
long a young girl of 10 should
wear a mourning veil? My
mother passed away recently
and my aunt said to wear the
veil down three months and
thrown back for three months.
Also please tell me about my
sisters. They are much older
and are also married.
READER,
l. Nowadays a girl so young
seldom wears a mourning veil,
even if she goes into very heavy
mourning. Indeed a mourning
veil is now seldom worn, even
by q widow or a mother.
Mourning has ecome very
eight" and people often do
not go into it at all, preferring
dark clothes, or all-White for
the summer. I believe it would
be better for you, dear girl,
if you do not wear the mourn
ing veil any longer. Mourning
is really more a matter OF the
heart, and after that, matter
Of ones actions.
2. All that I have said in the
first answer applies too to your
sisters, even if they are mar
ried. The black and white
prints Of this season are most
appropriate, .-~-.--. .-,--

entS Of fashion are Skillfully
mixed and stirred together to
give us these glamorous dinner
gowns. They're the essence of
everything that's feminine and
fascinating about clothes-a
gown to captivate a the Only
Man, or devastate the Other
Woman.
Dinner Hats
And, of course, with the
dinner gown, in comes the
dinner hat!
Women love them, men like
them, and even children cry
for them-those flattering lit
tie affairs that do so much
for a woman's face! They're
nothing but wisps Of veil and
twists of velvet or lame-but
they make you feel like a COM
bination of Greta Garbo and
Mae West! You can have
them in any material to match
your dinner dresS-velvet with
a velvet gown, lame with a
lame-trimmed frock, or sequinS
with a Sequin-Spangled dress.
And always-an alluring veil
of tulle or fishnet mesh to add
glamor!
"Baby BOnnetS" For Sports
You've probably seen the new
"baby bonnets''-those cunning
little hats that make even the
most grown-up gal look as
though she'd just stepped out
of her romperS! So far, they've
been shown only in materials
to 20 with more formal cos
tumes-velvets, lanes and furs.
Supposing you wanted one OF
these baby bonnets" to wear
with sports clothes-So what?
So they're making them OF
bright wools-cute little GRO
cheted caps that are even more
charming than the dressed
up" type, we think. Now. you
can have all the fun of wear
ing these flattering "baby bon
nets" and still match them to
your knitted frocks and woolen
ensembles.

Advice to the
LoveIorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Recently I met a young girl
with whom I fell in love. She
is very pretty, Intelligent and
hardworking. She las no
mother and is not living with
her father; therefore, she sup
ports herself.
She is very contrary with me.
If I suggest going to the movies
or any kind of entertainment,
she won't do it. She likes to
do just the opposite of what
I suggest. When I ask her why
she treats me so mean, she
merely replies that she likes
to tease me and see me when
I'm mad.
She is always talking about
other boys, too. To be fair,
she claims she doesn't care
about any of them. She seems
to like me, and I love her, and
we could both be happy If I
could only figure her out.
PUZZLED.
All very promising symptoms,
my dear boy. Don't you know
that girls enjoy teasing the boys
they like? Just good old-faSh-
ioned coquetry on the part of
the young lady; the same brand
your grandmother and great
grandmother INDUCED in when
they wanted to bring grandpa
and gre"t-~"- rdra to terms.

The question is what to do
to get rid of it. Sometimes the
task is a difficult one.
Dandruff is apt to get worse
the latter part of the winter,
when the majority Of people
are in rather poor physical
shape anyway. Also the con-
slant wearing Of hats in the
winter time does not improve
the condition.
Now is the time to start
working on the scalp to ward
off the most serious stage Of
dandruff, otherwise it may be-
come a problem for a scalp
specialist.
Here are two treatments
which you might try, after you
have carefully analyzed the
condition of your scalp. If
you have the oily type Of
dandruff you should use one
and if you have the dry
kind, try the other.
You won't have to step out
Of your house for either Of
these treatments, except to go
to the druggist to secure the
necessary materials.
For oily dandruff take 7l2
ounces Of bay rum and mix it
with u ounce of glycerine, 20
grains of quinine and 112 pintS

BY SALLY EILERS
The three piece suit is an in
dispensable part Of my personal
wardrobe, especially for Autumn.
It has the combined attraction
of being an ensemble for street
wear or an afternoon dress, if
one cares to wear it as such.
The suit in which I am pic
tured has a beige dress in sheer
wool and a duvetyn coat in Gin
namon brown.
Chic to me has always been
largely a matter of combining
materials in an unusual fashion,
or of contrasting colors in a
subtle manner.
That is why I had a smart
plaid taffeta, combining green
beige and brown, used to high
light this costume, and give it
gayety.
The square wooden buttons
are different, too, and notice
that I have one used as a clasp
to my brown antelope purse,
which is trimmed with some Of
the taffeta used on my suit.
My beret is made Of brown
antelope as are my walking
shoes. which are banded in al
ligator.
I think the new fall clothes
will have a decidedly modified
shoulder cut with a mere sug-
gestion of fullness, like the
double tucks on my coat. This
and the fact that sleeves are
decidedly plain are the two
most startling changes in FASH
ion for the seaSon.

cold stock or water, stirring un-
til gelatin is thoroughly dis
