WHAT ABOUT JAP DREAMS

The Tokyo radio says that Americas
dream of victory in the Pacific is extremely
bitter because of the presence of the Soviet
power and the probability of clash of in
terests with the Russians.
Obviously, the Japanese broadcaster
is trying to take the minds of his people off
Japan's dream of victory in the Pacific
which is already much beyond the extreme
ly bitter stage.

six weeks straight and while mould

sections to use, and tempers get on
edge quicker-to many chicken rails
ers-it has meant. more eggs!
No longer do hens wake up and
seek new nests out in the bushes
to lay their eggs, making it difficult
to find for the egg eaters.
Now biddy also weary of the con-
tinual rain, lays her eggs in the
hen house nests, provided for her!
So egg production has slept up as
a result. Those who were getting
from one to two eggs per day get
from six to eight or dozen after a
good nightly down pouring. So at
least there can be a bright side to
all the rain the chicken raisers feel
after all. For July alone some 20.1l5
inches of rain has fallen here the
