WORLD WILL FOLLOW US IF WE HOLD TO OUR IDEALS, STIDGER

"If ever there was a time when we should learn to talk American in its finest sense, now is the time," declared Dr. William L. Stidger. pastor of St. Mark's church, Detroit, addressing the Chautauqua Wednesday night. "I am here to say that the things

which are happening in Russia is the exact anti-thesis of the principles of

America, and if you believe in Russia's present policies you are opposite to the ideals of America. The whole wide world will follow America anywhere today. If there is any world hope, it is in America. 'The only staple government on earth i3 the American government,' said a member of the British parliament to me not long ago. "Keep the great ideals of America before the hungry eyes of the world for the whole world will follow Amer

ica if she stays by her ideals an traditions." i Discusses Silhouettes j Dr. Stidger was discussing "Sunshine Silhouettes." He opened his lecture with beautiful tributes to John Muir, the man who Dr. Stidger described as a great naturalist and lover of God's great out-doors. Speaking first of physical silhouettes, Dr. Stidger said: "When I was in California I once saw a huge black sequoia tree silhouetted against a brilliant red . sunset It so impressed me that I prayed that God might stand out in the lives of men just like the black silhouette of the sequoia did against the flaming sunset." Patriotic silhouettes composed the , second group spoken of by the speaker. It was during the discussion of these that he made his declarations

for an America true to her principles and ideals. Spiritual Silhouettes Spiritual silhouettes were the last group Dr. Stidger described. He defined them by narrated examples that he found on the battlefields of France. One story was of a tow-headed youngster who told Dr. Stidger and Irvin S. Cobb that while war was "no gravy" for anybody the boys were over there to stay until the kaiser was licked. Later that boy lay with a broken back, bravely awaiting death, wishing that he could have seen his mother again, but satisfied that he had had the opportunity to give his life for the cause. Other examples of this spirit of America were given by Dr. Stidger. Solo, trio and quartette numbers

were included in the afternoon and night programs by the Leiter Light I Opera company, Wednesday. Their! musical offerings were exceptionally: well given and received. This com-l pany wil give a concert at 8 o'clock1 Thursday night. i

difficulty that Miss Griffith obtained! his consent to teach an awkward! dance. I "It is spoiling my art," he said. "All my life I have stood for grace and j poise. I have advocated it and taught' it and I can't now consent to teach! anything that is inartistic or awk-j naid." I

Does it Pay to Raise Runts? Query Put to Many Farmers A questionnaire survey conducted among 1,000 leading farmers and breeders by the United States Department of Agriculture indi

cates that about 7 percent of the annual production of farm live stock in the United States consists of runts and undersized specimens of the various breeds and classes. Farmers report that their annual' incomes from live stock would be increased an average of 13 percent if runts could be eliminated. Better methods of feeding and breeding better stock, the use of purebred registered sires, good care and systematic attention, better housing and sanitation, proper care of the dam before the birth of young, practical control of such objectionable parasites as -worms and lice, the control of disease, and the culling from the farm of all stunted stock which indicates no possibilities of successful reformation and rehabilitation are the control methods recommended by these experi

enced farmers. About three-quarters of them say that it does not pay to raise runts, -while the balance maintain that the Tom Thumbs of the livestock -world can be raised successfully only -when well bred and when plenty of cheap feed is available and dependable markets are readily accessible.

Why try to put all of the flowers in the garden In one vase? Use discretion and do not crowd. Often one rose or one flower is more effective than a dozen. Give each individual plenty of room to show off and do not mix colors.

How about natural planting of some of the bulbs that multiply and establish themselves ri this climate, such as the trillium, crocus, narcissus, lily of the valley, snowdrop, etc.

When you whitewash your hen house use Carbola, for sale at Whe-lan's.

It Is known as a matter of experience and observation that town and city people who have to figure costs of food closely have not been accustomed to use eggs freely except in the season of flush production and low prices. Many such

families can keep a few hens in the back yard and even with low production get many more eggs than

they have been accustomed to use.

Hens "Roll Their Own" High Egg Records Follow As a result of eight years' feeding tests at the United States Department of Agriculture poultry yards at Beltsville, Md., a mash feed has been compounded which gives uniform high egg production.

This mash, which has been tested for three years, is made of 4 percent bran, 4 percent middlings, 26 percent meat scrap, and 66 percent corn meal. In the experiments the hens were allowed to select their own mash ingredients. This is the proportion of those different feeds which they ate during the year. Several pens of 30 hens each, both of Leghorns and of Rhode Island Reds, have averaged from 140 to 155 egg apiece while this mash was fed. While the mash seems to be especially adapted for Leghorns, it has given very good results with Reds. Wyandottes and Plymouth Rocks were found to get too fat on the ration and a mash somewhat lower In meat scrap has given better results with these breeds. Both the Wyandottes and Plymouth Rocks at Beltsville are large standard sized fowls. The tendency to become overfat on this mash probably would not be found in a smaller type of Plymouth Rocks, such as is often found on commercial poul

try farms.

Buildin? Small Henhouse

In building a poultry house, new lumber will, of course, make the

best appearing structure and will also be somewhat easier to work up because it can be bought in lengths most advantageous for the purpose. Houses for a few hens can sometimes be constructed from packing boxes, while used material or secondhand lumber, if it can be purchased cheaply and is close at hand, will sometimes lower the cost of the house materially. Occasionally, also, where a high board fence is available, the house

can be built in the corner of the fence, thus saving the construction

of the back and one side of the

house. Care must be used to cover

or batten the cracks, either by

means of strips or by the use of roofing paper. Construct the build

ing so that the front of your henhouse will admit the sunlight.

Agriculture, for bulletins containing plans and illustrations. Farm

MITES WORSE IN HOT WEATHER Watch closely for mites in hot

weather. Make your poultry pro

duce meat, not mites. Read up on

insecticides and disinfection and sprays, and follow up what you learn. There is no other way to have clean, healthy poultry.

Cleanliness With Poultry Prevention is better than cure in the poultry business as in any other department of life. Filth, dampness, improper ventilation, improper feeding, and introducing infected birds into the yard are common causes of disease. Clean the dropping boards daily, and then sprinkle them with road dust, coal ashes, or land-plaster to absorb the liquid excrement. New straw should be put into the nests every two or three weeks or oftener, especially if it becomes damp or dirty. Whitewash the quarters once a year at least, late in summer or early in the fall.

Renovating the Hen House

September, October, November are the best months of the year to use Carbola, a ready mixed disinfectant white wash. There is a perfectly good reason for it. Poultry and livestock represent a cash investment During the winter months they are confined to their living quarters more than in any other period of the year. They get less fresh air and sunshine, the best of all disinfectants, and they

are in greater danger from contagious diseases. During this time, it ia more Important than ever that their living quarters be kept clean and sanitary. Therefore, in the autumn, after the harvest is over and they have the time, the farmers make it a point to "clean-up" the buildings in which their poultry and livestock will live during the winter months. Carbola is excellent for white washing cellars and spring houses.
