U. S. Calls Upon Everybody; to Raise Poultry; Will Richmond People Heed the Call?

Will the people of Richmond help Increase the nation's supply of poultry and poultry products? There are many backyards which have space for at least a doaen chlcktns and Mill leave room for a little M re! on and a play spot for the kidcileH. Not only will you help the country !y raising chickens but you will find It highly profitable. You will gpt fresh epjfs and chicken for dinner occasionally. Eggs are hlj?h In price. Why not grow them In your back yard? Poultry raising, so the food administration says, is lUht work. Boys and plrls can do It and thus make money for their Thrift Stamps and Liberty Honda. How do you raise chickens and get fKfrs? What work and expense does chicken raising entail? When do you Hart? How much space, food, time and what do I make out of It? The -.Palladium will answer all of llu'se questions and many more In a series of daily poultry lessons, the first of which is printed today, which comes from the pen of E. E. Richard", president of the American Poultry association. The lesson follows: (By E. E. Richards, President of the American Poultry Association.) We are going to win this war It Is going to cost our treasury billions of dollars, betides the lives of hundreds of thousands of our Lrisht young manhood, b;t we shall win. To win this war, the quickest, and with the lfast loss of lives, we must provide the food for as Napoleon said: "An ortny marches on its stomach." This means that an army must be well provisioned to reach Us greatest efficiency. In the war times that are passed, an army could largely subsist upon the country through which it passed, but there Is no living upon the country through which modern armies are passing. There is no living upon the Greek or Balkan states, nor on fialonica, so that as Lloyd George said some time ago the food supply is

one of this war's greatest necessities. The greater part of the food supply must come from the United States, not only for our 1.760,000 and more boys in the army and navy, but we shall have to feed our people at home, and must also supply the allies who are fighting this world's greatest battles. Mr. Herbert Hoover, the nation's food administrator, asks for more poultry, chickens, turkeys, ducks and geese. He pleads as follows: "To the American Poultry Association and producers of poultry and eggs in the United States: "We are short of red meat. Our soldiers and our allies require more than ever before. We are advocating in every household, every hotel and restaurant in this country the substitution of poultry for red meat. Increased production of poultry can be effected much faster than beef, perk

and mutton. While we want increase in all the latter, we must have a quick response in poultry and poultry products. There is a great waste of poultry feeds from every household and every farm. It requires little labor. Cannot the poultry raisers of the country help us by providing the increased supply we need?" Herbert Hoover. Every home, no matter how palatial or humble, should maintain a little house flock, to consume what would otherwise go to waste the offal from the kitchen table, garden and lawn and transform same into one of the best foods known to mankind: strictly fresh eggs, with an occasional fowl for Sunday's dinner. To the dweller in the village, town or city, a well kept flock of a dozen or twenty-five good laying hens will prove valuable, and such flocks may be profitably maintained in every back lot.

Mrs. F. W. Stephens Describes Trip

The following description of an automobile trip from Los Angeles to Richmond, was written by Mrs. F. W. Stephens: The Valley, itself la a park-like meadow, seven miles long by threefourths mile wide, above which mounlains rise all around 4.000 feet high, and the Merced River, like a silver pfream, winds through it. We registered about 100 miles over the floor, as It is called. The Falls are the chief attraction. The great Yosemite in three lf-aps. measuring 2,600 feet from top to bottom, is conceded by all critics to bo one of the most wonderful and beautiful cascades in the world.

Ph roar can be heard miles away, and j the Falls can be seen from the San

Joaquin valley, 60 miles distant. Im- j aglne a flood of water 35 feet wide and larger In the springtime, leaping over six or seven Punker Hills! An j auto can reach any part except the I trails. These invite you to ascend, j "An upward leading path is of itself j an eloquent persuasion." One must r bathe in the foamy, spray of Vernal i and Nevada Falls to fully enjoy their 1 "laughing waters," must feel the mist j at the foot of Bridal Falls must j r scend to the very end of the miriad : rainbows of this finest little beauty : tern of all j Half-Home Is called the chief glory, of the Valley, but surely not more in-1 rpirlng than El Uapifun. probably the! most kingly mass of granite known.! the most majectic column or buttress j on earth Muir says the Yosemite has j een wrought by Ice: the United i States Geographical Survey attributes j

mopt or ine worn done to water, relative amounts possibly 60 percent water and 40 percent ice Between them has resulted one of the most beautiful and stupendous pieces of mountain curving In existence.. We were in the Park from Sunday n m. HM Thursday p. m , its grandeur and beauty ever Increasing upon us. "The Ynsenilte." somn una says, "can

stand the broad searching light of j mlddav and not bf cheapened." We'

could have lingered long, not like the man who hurried away In one and a half days, saving "lie didn't wish to loHe the thrill."

Cathedral Rocks and Sentinel Iwne I held us with an alluring spell. Thej Three Graces, the Three Brothers. I Mirror Lake and Happy Isles, all en-1 treating us not to leave such loveli- j ness. The presence of friends in the I Park, former Richmond residents, add ! ed greatly to our enjoyment. We vis-j Itod together between ecstacies. talk-1 ing over the glories of the place. Then j one afternoon we gave two jolly girls a lift, starting on their long, tiresome tramp to Bridal Veil Full of lif and!

I nil, llir-j " I v i.'"n jwi. vi pwiu rt the end of the rainbow up there The next evening we ran arcoss them in the crowd at Curry Camp. "Hunting for you." they said, placing In our hnnd as pretty a bunch of trout as ever played in the waters of the Park Our net drive was to San Francisco At Berkeley we were refreshed with a visit and rest at the home of a niece, then on over our northbound whv toward Poland. We had formerly come up the coast by train and thought we had enjoyed Shasta to the

limit 01 our powers. Again we werej privileged to view this guardian mon-1 arch tet ween the Sierra-Nevada and!

Cascade Ranges. For miles and hours

along the base of this immense snowcrowned peak leisurely drinking in the wonders of the truly marvelous scenery. We drove into the Park at the Springs, took only a taste of its curiously, medical waters, but sipped to satibfaction our fill from its purest, pure fountain, iced with Shasta's perpetual snow. We. made a side trip of 86 miles in order to see Crater Lake called the "Eighth Wonder of the World." It is found on a fearfully prodigious height in Northern Oregon, h terribly precipitous road leads up 8.000 feet above sea level to this lake, whose depths have not been sounded.

We rode right up to the "top of the earth," and there the rarest picture Imaginable presents itself. The body of water fills the old crater of Mount J.inzaira, probably the highest of all the grat volcanoes of the Cascade Rar.j'e- -14,000 feet In the clouds. I nva thrown twenty milea t it3

eruption centuries ago, 17 square miles of mountain caving in. more than the whole of Mt. Washington, and into this Crater has come a lake of surpassing beauty. The bowl above the water is trimmed with green woods to the rim. Snow peaks at the top drop their reflections in the glassy depths, the shining surface mirrors a thousand tints, the blue sea full of fleets of diamonds, pearls, rubies and amethysts. One cannot, quite imagine the sensation of such a surprising scene. Its loveliness entrances: its beauty impells adoration. That day was the Sabbath (near to the eternals, a rare temple for worship), with Shasta's and Hood's lofty pinacles miles away, also pointing Heavenward. We treated ourselves to a delightful week with relatives in Portland and while there had a day's ride over the famous Columbia River Highway. It enjoys the distinction of being the most beautifully constructed road in the world. It surely is one of commanding scenic grandeur, Multnomah, Bridal Veil and eight other falls within ten miles of each other along its drive. Nature does not often run great continental rivers athwart lofty mountain ranges, but the Columbia cleaves the Cascades from top to bottom. Trie wildest, most picturesque part of the gorge is easily reached and made accessible by this Columbia River Highway. Before arriving at Tacoma on our road to Seattle, we were favored with a fine view of Mt. Rainier, which often has a way of hiding when you want it. A great pure white peak, resting in a sra of billowy clouds, pink illumined. Again we were rested at the dear home of a niece in Everett. Washington. Traveling in the gre't mountain ranges was our special delight. The vistas over the Snoqualomie and Blewett Passes we can well remember but can never describe. fTo be continued

Enough Law to Protect Sheep from Dogs There is enough law on the Indiana statute books to protect sheep against the ravages of dogs and every effort will be made by the Wayne County Council of Defense to enforce the law. Anv resident of Wayne county, un-

i der the law, may kill dogs which at

tack sheep, according to Dr. E. R. Churchell, chairman of the defense council. "Any person who owns, keeps or

! harbors any dog after he knows the ; dog has killed or maimed, chased or I worried sheep, cattle horses, etc., j Fhall be fined in a sum not less than flO nor more than $50," reads the

law. The government needs wool and is calling upon people to raise sheep.
