FIND ILLINOIS TOWN WHOSE INHABITANTS CLING TO OLD WAYS SPRINGFIELD, 111., Sept 7. Bernadote, a Rip Van Winkle tqwn, is awakening from a century ef sleep.'

Like those souls living "on yonder

hill" above Spoon River, who were quickened into live by the imagination

of Edgar Lee Masters in his "Anthology," the unperturbed inhabitants of this strange little village 'on the same

Spoon River, -have been touched with life by the pen of a newspaper writer. Without telephones, automobiles,

railroads or any modern conveniences

this town had gone on its undisturbed way for a hundred years, steeping Quietly in a busy world, until a few

day3 ago when it was "discovered

by a. motion picture director and the next morning awoke to fame with a

column of type in a Bloomington news paper.

C. L. Varnard, looking about for a

"location" to film a country scene, ran across the village. It has no ra'iroads and half the inhabitants claim never to have seen a jtrain. It has no picture

Bhows, and of course had never seen a motion picture camera. There are no telephones and no electricity Id the town. The old village grist mill is still grinding away every day with water from the same spillway that supplied the mill a century ago. But now strange things are happening in Bernadote. Big automobiles whizz thrpugh the village. There is the unusual smell of oil and, gasoline. The swirling dust from many pnpumatic tires distresses the bewildered in habitants. Old ladies in calico dresses no longer go their quiet way to the village 6tore and long whiskered old men no longer calmly whittle the hours away under the village trees. Their nerves twitch and the day is no longer calm.

A Few Pullets in Back Yard Wfll Pay Kitchen Waste and Some Mash and Grain solve Feed Question.

Every family which has even a small back yard can go far toward supplying itself with eggs. Even in a small back yard, with the aid of a few hens, much of the kitchen garbage can be manufactured into food instead of being wasted. Keeping chickens even on a small scale can be made a pleasant, worth-while recreation, particularly interesting to a child old enough to assume responsibility. Value of Keeping Hens. Keeping small flof is of hens in a village or city back yard has proved successful. It is an important branch, of the poultry industry. Though the value of the product from each flock is small in itself, the aggregate Is large. The product of such a flock both in the form of eggs, and fowls for the table, may be made at a relatively low cost because of the possibility of utilizing table scraps and kitchen waste which would otherwise be

thrown away. A small flock of

hens, even as few as six or eight, should produce eggs enough, where

used economically, for a family of four or five persons throughout the

entire year, except during the moulting period and fall and early winter. By preserving surplus eggs produced during spring and early summer this period pullets instead of hens also will insure production of eggs at this time. Not only will the eggs from the home flock materially reduce the cost of living, but their superior freshness and quality are in themselves well worth the effort expended. The need for an extension of poultry raising is particularly great in those sections where the consumption of poultry products exceeds the production with the result that prices are high. Objection frequently is raised to the keeping of poultry in towns and cities because of the odor which may result and also because of the noise made by roosters crowing, particularly early in the morning. The poultry flock need not become a nuisance to the neighbors. If the dropping boards are cleaned daily and if the houses and yards are kept in a reasonably clean con

dition there will be no annoying

odors.

The male bird need not be a nui-! sance. Unless it is intended to hatch chickens from the flock, it is unnecessary to keep a male bird. The fact that there is no male in the flock will have absolutely no effect upon the number of eggs laid by the hens. Those who wish to produce eggs for hatching should get rid of the roosters when the hatching season ends. This is desirable not only to eliminate the noise of the rooster, but also to save the feed that would be eaten by the male, and for the further reason that the eggs produced -aft

er the male is disposed of will be infertile. Since these eggs are incapable of chiclrdevelopment, they can be kept much better than fertile eggs and, consequently, are superior for keeping, putting up in water-glass or marketing. The flock, of course, must be kept confined, otherwise the hens will stray into neighbors' yards and gardens, where they may cause damage, and almost certainly ill-feeling.

ONE OF FOUR HENS LOAFS Some of your neighbors can tell you how to cull out the low-producers from your flock. About one in four is a loafer, and this is the time of year when any one trained to pick them out can do so easily.

ILLINOIS' OLDEST BREEDER J. A. Countryman of Rochelle is probably the oldest breeder of pure bred' Poland China hogs in Illinois. He established his herd of pure breds in 1S72, fifty years ago. and had raised market hogs in large numbers previous to that time. During his half cenutry in the pure bred hog business he has averaged keeping more than fifty brood sows, many of them farrowing two litters a year. Without any element of boast fulness Mr. Countryman says he believes he has raised more hogs than any living man in Illinois.

In order to increase the production of fruit it is essential that fruit growers wage a continuous fight . on orchard pests. Some of the most valuable control work can be accomplished during the fall and winter months. Certain destructive insects are held in check only by spraying during the dormant period of trees, when stronger washes may be used than when the trees are in foliage. Many insects spend the ; winter on the tree in the egg, larva or pupal stage, and their destruction in the course of prunings and other orchard work is practicable and is of much importance in keeping them reduced. Certain fungous and bacterial diseases, particularly pear blight and apple canker, are best worked upon at this time. Practically all of the orchard scale insects can be successfully controlled by spraying the trees after the foliage has dropped. This work may be done either in the fall or during the winter when the temperature ia above freezing and in the spring before the buds come

out. Dunns: these periods a strong solution of lime sulphur is used by a great many orchardists in controlling San Jose scale and many other serious scale pests. . ? Other scale insect pests, such as the cherry scale, oyster-shell scale, etc., can usually be held in check by the dormant spray with limestilphur wash. The treatment is also effective against the pear leaf blister mite, which is universally present on pears, and in many localities becomes a serious apple pest. Some plant lice that are destructive, especially to young apple trees, winter in the egg stacre and are destroyed by this treatment. One thing that must be remembered in applying the d?rroan: spray is that the solution should cover every part of the tree or it will not be effective.
