HOW NON-POULTRY KEEPERS CAN HELP PRODUCE WHITE MEAT (By Mra. E. W- Mahood) There are some people who are so situated that they cannot keep chickens but who loyally .desire . to do all they can to produce and conserve food in this time of world necessity. While every housewife la learning to keep the waste from her kitchen and table down to the minimum, there are always leftovers which, while they cannot be used on the family table, will help feed chickens. . Thus every family so situated that they cannot keep poultry themselves should turn their waste over to the neighbor who is keeping chickens, so that even this waste may be utilized to produce food for human beings. Now a few hints as to Just what waste can be utilized in .this way may help, you to so arrange the garbage that it will not b9 rendered useless or difficult of use for chicken food by being mixed with harmful waste. All vegetable parings, scraps of bread and meat, cereals or vegetables left on the plates all green waste such as celery, beet and turnip

tops make valuable food for poultry, Each housewife will be glad to put this food aside in one vessel and to hand it each day to her neighbor who keeps chickens. ' But let her see that no slop, paper, burnt matches, coffee or tea grounds, bones, especially fish bones, orange or banana parings are thrown in with what is saved for the neighbor's chickens. . Let her save also every otherwise waste drop of milk, for every teaapoonful of sour milk will help a little chick to grow Into victory food in two short month. This is a little trouble, but not too much for Our loyal women, to whose untiring industry our ultimate triumph over cruel powers will be due to so great an extent.

Mir,, Way me Coummlty FainnrntBir The National Defense Council has set aside a period of 1 5 days in which it will ask the farmers of the county to get prepared RIGHT for this year's food raising campaign. It will ask that all farmers check over their equipment and have everything in good repair, replace hand power with machinery wherever possible, take advantage of the Dept. of Agriculture's service and do every thing possible to back up the fighting men at the front. Mr. Farmer; 1 5 days is not a long enough period in which to do this. SO LET'S START NOW. We have pictured and described here several devises you should have. Lack of space prohibits a complete description of everything but we have a complete display in our show rooms. Call now, let's go the defense council one better, put Wayne county up in front when the survey comes.

THE JAMES OLIVER NO. 11 SULKY PLOW

This plow is particularly adapted for plowing around large lands as well as small fields. It enables the driver to make SQUARE turns at comers with the plow IN THE GROUND. It makes it unnecessary to divide a field into lands, thus eliminating unnecessary back ridges and dead furrows. The reason why this No. 1 1

can be turned successfully while in the ground cutting its full depth is its short wheel base. It plows the corners just as deep as it does when going in a straight line. Many farmers do not like theground at the corners trampled by horses and with this plow there is

no occasion to ever have hoof tracks on the plowed ground. The rolling landslide relieves the pressure on the furrow bank, making for light draft. This plow has all the latest improvements and is highly recommended on account of the absence of complicated parts. Equipped with Combination Rolling Coulter and Jointer and 3-horse equalizer. See this Plow in our Display Room.

UNCLE SAM NEEDS FATS HELP MM

With the government constantly warning people to save butter fats it behooves every farmer to get as much as possible from his milk source. The Be Laval Cream Separator constitutes the best method known of separating cream from milk, the most completely, most quickly, most easily and most cheaply. See and try a De Laval machine, not one of five or ten years ago, but one of the latest improved machines of today, before deciding as to the purchase of any other separator. No more conclusive argument can be made in this regard than to state the fact that ninety-nine out of every hundred buyers of cream separators who do give it a trial buy the DeLaval and buy it knowng that they have made no mistake in doing so. A complete line on our floor.

CONSERVE

Maumdl IPowcsn0 All available hand power will be necessary on the farms this year. With hand power going to fight it is necessary to replace it with machinery. No machine saves as much labor as a DEXTER WASHING MACHINE. The DEXTER line includes single and double tub, hand propelled or motor power washers. See the model that best suits your requirements on our floor.

Improved Seat Guide

ClUAJTlVATOlR

This cultivator is one that can be used in all conditions of ground with equal success, sandy or clay soil, whether there

a few or many weeds. You do good work without great effort upon yourself. It is particularly adapted to uprooting large

weeds and cultivating where the ground is full of quack grass. The parallel gangs make it impossible for the operator to unintentional

ly swing one of them and root out a hill of corn, he can operate successfully by watching only one gang. They also allow a wider range of movement be

cause the rear of the gang moving in parallel motion with the front can be adjusted closer to the wheel, giving greater movement to.dodge corn. The pole and seat guide offer a special advantage when cultivating hilly ground and in operating on level ground the gangs can be set to penetrate a certain depth and you may know that the gangs are operating at just that depth. This is by far the most practical single row cultivator made and we suggest that you call and examine it at our salesroom.
