The- dealer refused this demand on the ground that It simply couldn't b done. Thereupon, according to agreement, an attempt was mode to settle the matter by arbitration. The plan, which was adopted two ars atfti, provides that two men shall he selected by the local, two by the dealers and that the four shall select a tilth man to complete th board. The deadlock came on the selection of the :1ft h man. The four could not agree. Then the dealers sunu'ested that a disinterested man be obtained from the government labor department or from th war department but lo this the teamsiers would not listen. Finally, the local union delivered 'he till imsi I titn that the committee already determined must select their fifth man from a li"t which th'v had prepared. Otherwise a s'tike would be called. Tile dealers tou'd rut ye that thiit w as arbitral ion. The unu n came ba- k with tli.- statement tnst the afrreeni.nl to arbitrate liad expired anyhow And thus it stands. And th'is a strike is on. As a result, practically no coal, lumber, feed, or building material is being delivered today. How the matter will be settied Is still prob'einat :cn !

How Every Family Can Keep a Few Hen. Make four atror.g frames S feet long by 18 Inchea wide. Cover with chicken wire. Make one large frame 8 feet long and 80 Inches high, fill It with strips lengthwise, space so that a hen cannot go through It. These panels are then placed to form the sides of a coop with a larger panel down the center Jlko an old fashioned knife and fork tray. A pair of wheels which may be sawed out of wood are placed near one end of the middie partition. Drinking fountains and feed troughs are wired to the frames in the corners. The whole Is covered with ordinary canvas. Roosts are fastened to the middle partition. The whole outfit can be easily moved about the lawn in any city or village yard anl will accommodate six hens on each side. Get your hena in the spring, have them lay eggs for you all summer, eat them up In the fall, fold up your coop for the winter.

There Is Big Money In Eggs. ( (National Crop Improvement Service. : "-URINQ the past four years we j J have witnessed a great increase in me price or grains ani roouPtuff.' Corn advanced from 60 cents to 52.00 per bushel. Wheat Increased in value during this period from $0.90 to $2.50 per bushel, and the price of all other grains accordingly. Meat and animal products rapidly Increased In value. For Instance, pork rose in I value from ix cents per pound live : weight to 22 cent3 per pound. However, there was one exception to this i condition. Poultry prices advanced only from 13 cents per pound to 24 j cents per po'und. The price of eggs I In the preceding season during the J spring and summer months varied j from 22 cents to R4 cents per dozen. There was a reason for this slow advance. j Our great country was liberally j stocked with poultry, and when grain J prices soared many farmers shipped j their hens and the market was glutted. , Poultry raisers throughout the counI try sacrificed their highly bred stock 1 on the market and closed their plants due to the lack of feed. The effect of slaughtering our laying hens did not appear until this winter, when we found our cold-storage stocks of eggs completely exhausted by February 1. , We were facing an ecg famine. Our mild winter has aided the remaining hens to lay wonderfully well, and the j situation Is saved for the time being, jbut look out for next year!

FLOOD CITY WITH RED LITERATURE Handbills In various foreign lan guages were scattered all orer tha southern rart of Gary yesterday, ad vertlsing a meeting of the Reds to be held at Roumanian hall on Sunday, May 11. The hall is owned by the Tricolor Si. Ind. Romans Company, of which Andrew Flesher, Oary bt;al ress men, ia president. The building Is leased by Sofron Bnntea and Upon learning that a meeting was adver tised for next Sunday Mr. Flesher lm mediately served notice on the leasee that If he allowed a meet'ng of the Reds his lease would be forfeited and h would be ejected from the building there being no clause in the lease pro hibiting the holding of any unlawful meeting In the building. Mayor Hodges and Chief of Police Foribis have given orders for the police to arrest all persons caught distributing handbills calling any meetings of the Reds at any date In the city of Garay. PASSING HIMSELF AS SINGLE 3LAN Cecil Keilum. through her attorney. B. E. Houren, this morning in the Oary superior court filed a suit asking a divorce from her husband, Virgil Ke'lum, the ibill of complaint sefling out that defendant wa.s not only cruel and inhuman in man ways, but was guilty of association with Immoral women and on April 7th defendant aent for the plaintiff to Join him at Indianapolis and ipon arrival In the capital 'id&ggs When you consider that tb number of hens In the United States Is only 40 per cent of normal there Is basis for hijzh prices for eggs and poultry for the coming years. Eggs Are High and Feeds Lower. Grains and mixed feeds are declining in price and we have a reversal of conditions today, namely, eggs are high and feeda are lower. Our government urges you to raise more poultry to save meat. Eggs are excellent food, composed of highly nutritious proteids. In fact, eggs and milk lead all other foods la nutrition values. Time Has Come to Raise Chickens. It Is therefore the moment to raise chickens and we cannot urge you too strongly to make your plans at once, arrange contests among the boya and girls and give rrlzes for the greatest number of chickens hatched and raised by any club In your county. What to Feed. You are fortunate if you have the feed, but there Is good money in eggs, even should you buy all your feed. Don't attempt to cheat your egg machine. The high-priced feeds are high In values or they could not be sold. Beware of any feed that has nothing but "cheap" to recommend it. All the leading poultry feed mills Issue books of exact Information which will prevent you making mistakes. Don't try to economize on feeds. Go after the eggs and get them ; feed mixtures which will bring results. Don't be stingy with your hens; give them egg material and they will produce eggs.
