Proper Diet Important
to Welfare of Poultry

Birds should be free not only
from present diseases but also from
hangover weaknesses resulting from
previous chick ailments. Such trou-
bles as pullorum disease white d.
arrhea) coccldiosis, and typhoid are
very likely to occur. Chicks that
survive an attack of these diseases
are usually stunted and some of
them are likely to carry the infec-
ton In chronic form. Consequent.
ly, though they do not suffer them
selves, they are a source of danger
to healthy birds, which are housed
with them. For this reason every
effort should be made to avoid hous-
ing healthy birds with others which
have passed through an attack Of
the above-named diseases, says Sue
cessful Farming.
A proper diet Is important In
keeping the birds In good condition,
so they can withstand disease. The
ration should include good quality
grains, such as corn, wheat, and
oats. II should also contain prop
er minerals to satisfy the need for
bones and egg she'll. A third re
quirement is the Misunderstanding
vegetable proteins.
Two kinds of minerals are essen
tial. One is calcium. the chief
sources of which are lime and
oyster shells. The other is phos-
phorus. which Is best supplied in
bonemeal. The animal proteins most
often used are tankage, meatscrap
and milk, and the most common veg.
etable protein Is ground alfalfa.

Droughts.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

There seems to be no problem or task too large, complex difficult for science to tackle and hope, eventually, to solve. Natural phenomena, such as earthquakes tidal waves, typhoons, cyclones and, in fact any catastrophe which may afflic humanity, serve only to spur on the men of science to seek the cause, in order that future damage may be lessened or, perhaps, prevnted
 Droughts are case in point. H. H. Clayton, of the Smithsonian Institution, after than fotry- two years of observation and study asserts that the coming of droughtS may be predicted. partly lat least, through watching the movements of "cen- ters of action of weather MT Clayton believes that there are dozen such scattered over the earths surface, and that they are among the controlling factors in the worlds weather These centers of faction are in turn, Mir Clayton states, controlled by the changing heat of the sun.
 Says he "There is something in common in the weather in widely separated parts of the earth.
 Changes of weather in Central North America show la similarity to changes in Central South America.
 Changes in atmospheric pressure in the Indian Ocean show simlarities to changes of temperature on the coast of Chile. Annual pressure means in San Diego vary in the same way as in Buenos Aires and pressures in Ceyon vary nversely as those in Santiago, Chile"
 !, He further suggests that these common features lare occasioned by changes in the intensity of the circulation of the earths atmosphere but admits that in the last analysis it all hinges upon the varying degrees of solar radiation.
 In light of this fact, though the results of MT Clayton's long and intensive study may prove to be boon to the world in many respects, the cusion to be drawn is that will continue to suffer from periodic droughts until may be able to control the suns temperamental fits of varied radiation.
 Since there no immediate prospects of our ability to compel old "Sol" to maintain a stable temperature the sensible and intelligent thing to ldo is to be prepared for eventualities. This could be done by constructing reservoirs vantage points
 for storage purposes in times of plenty.

POLITICAL DAYS APPROACH.

The ending of July and the approach Of the dog days of August sgnaize again the coming of political days Party primaries and party conven- tions, at which the candidates who will oppose each other on the hustings next Fall will be selected and campaign orators will invade the cities and hamets to debate the New Deal, bureaucracy and other subjects that they assume will bring votes to them selves and their cause.
 Thirteen States have primary elections in August beginning with Tennessee on August 2, and con- tinuing with Kentucky August A. Kansas, Missouri Virginia and West Virginia three days later Arkansas Nebraska and Ohio August 14 Wyom- ing August 21, Mississippi, California and South Carolina on August 28 Nevada holds hers on Sep tember 4, between September and 15 Maryland; Arizona Colorado Louisiana Michigan Vermont, New Hampshire and Washington on September II; and on September 18, Wisconsin Massachusetts and New York The time for primaries is not fixed by law in Georgia. Idaho will have State nominat- ing convention on August 28 and conventions are to be held dates not fixed by law in Connecticut Delaware, New Mexico Rhode Island and Utah.
 Thirty-five States elect Senators next Fall, and the entire membership of the House of Represen- tatives comes up for election. Naturally as the summer wanes and fall days approach, there will be more and of politics in the daily press And since most and intimately con- nected with that subject and ought to be deeply interested in it. it is the mission of newspapers to purvey them all of the essential facts about the campaigns and the candidates.
 AIaska's own campaign though slow in taking form, is nevertheless beginning to gather momentum Party organizations stirring themselves Dvi- sional conventions have been held by the Democrats which drew out more than the usual number of delegates. The primary vote last April indicated that the Democratic vote would be much heavier this year than the Republican. More recent ndica- uons such attendance at political club meetings merely served to confirm the primary forecast
 The Democratic Party in Alaska has come out suuarely with strong endorsement in its platform of the New Deal, the Presidents program for recovery and of approval of the of Delegate Dimond and of the administration of Gov. Troy. The Republicans, though adopting platform for the First Division, remained silent to President Roosevelt's program and that of Delegate Dimond. It attacked the Democratic Legislature of 1883 and some of the acts of the Territorial Democratic ad ministration.
 These subjects undoubtedly will be developed by the candidates later. Democratic strategists will of course, make of the benefits accruing to Alaska under MT Roosevelt's dynamic leadership These have been numerous and outstanding that the G. O. F. campaign directors cannot dispute them and their only recourse is to undertake to attempt to capitalize minor local questions.

PLANNING AND THE CALENDAR.

The increasing demands of business concerns have led various governments to study more seriously the sundry plans for calendar reform This tendency is accentuated by the difficulties caused by our present calendar in the statistical operation of business and public planning It is not unlikely that when the calendar is changed, it will be as the result of widespread demand from the agencies in charge of economic planning.
 The present calendar has very great merit. That is the fact that it has been in use for some centuries and is the basis for all existing records, save for those business firms that have adopted a 13-month calendar. But against this argument there are numerous objections. When the year is divided into halves and quarters these not of equal length The months begin on different days, and contain varying numbers of working days. The result is that statistical comparisons extremely difficult to make with accuracy.
 Despite the fact that numerous business cor porations prefer the l3-month calendar. there is more Likelihood of general agreement on a reformed

Capitals Chance.
(New York World Telegram.

This week, under leadership of its new housing administrator, James A. Moffett, the Government will launch it's newest offensive against the de- presson.
 This attack differs from the great emergency spending projects of the New Deal It calls for action less from Washington than from every ham, let, town and city of the nation. The ammunition for this drive is not rain of public money but of private money. The combatants not Government employees, but home owners, contractors, bankers, building and loan companies material men. The objective is to take the sector still in the enemys hands, the heavy industries. The method is to loose the billions of private credit now frozen and put lit to work renovating and rebuilding homes making our cities more comfortable decently rehousing families. Normally we spend $11,00O,0O0,00O year in construction. Now we're spending only $30OO- 100000 and we're five years behind in normal building
 The Governments role under the new housing act is that of big insurance firm. Renovation loans of $20O0 or less are to be Goyernment-guar- anteed up to 20 per cent and new home mortgages are to be Governmen-insured up to 80 per cent of the property's appraised value In nsuring mort lgageS and making the mortgage market once more attractive to capital the Government is doing an- other great service-standardizng mortgages, with low interest rates and amortization features This is reform that has been needed for years
 The big task, however, is private capitals If this new movement is to succeed private initiative and confidence must be shown Banks and other loanng services must accept on a wholesale scale these insured and standardized mortgage invest
 ments. Material men must follow the lead of the lumber dealers, reduce the prices of cement steel and other building materials and seek to make up their profits from increased volume Railroads must reduce their rates. Wage disputes must be min imized step made much easier by recent action of
 the union carpenters, brckayers and electricians in
 making peace with sixteen other building trade crafts And all the benefciaries must join in sell ing" the rehousing adventure to the public Partisan critics have been charging the Govern
 ment with unduly invading private capitals baili-
 wick. Here is private capitals chance to do it's bit for its self

It has been called to attention that John E. Ballaine. founder of Seward, Bull Mooser and Progressive whs is now reported to be candidate for Republican nomination for Congress from the First Washington State District, aspirant last year when the Democrats went into power for the position as General Manager of the Alaska Railroad instead of Governor of Alaska Since the former job is the more remuneratve of the two, llr Ballaine probably aimed for it. That his aim was faulty and failed of its mark probably is one of the chief reasons for his return to the G. O. P fold.

Scores of Towns Shattered Reconstruction Is Started

SPOKANE, Washo July 25. -- Citizens of the Inland Empire are busy today with reconstruction in the wake of storms leaving scores of towns looking like they had been attacked by artillery. ,,
 At Standpoint, Idaho, an cleo trical storm cut power and commu- nication lines.
 Marble sized hailstones shattered countless windows.
 Trees were uprooted by a 60-mile gale.
 One man suffered a black eye when struck by a hailstone.

12-month calendar. The most generally discussed of these would provide four months of 31 days each and eight months of 30 days each. The four quarters and two semesters would be equal in number of days. Each quarter would begin on a Sunday and end Saturday. and every month would begin the day of the week. year after year There would be extra day at the end of the year, outside the months.
 The manifest advantages of such calendar even- tually may compel it's adoption, but it is idle to expect rapid action in a matter which involves the approval of so many groups of people and which would require the altering of so many habits.

It was announced , to diplomatic representatives of the various powers at St. Petersburg, that Russia would go to war rather than allow the downfall of Servia. All powers had been notified by 1, Austria Hungary of it's peremptory demand upon Servia to punish the assassin of Archduke Franz Ferdi- hand and his wife as well as those who conspired with the assassin.
