The gray poultry mite Is com- monest In dark, dump, dirty poultry houses, where It thrives upon filth. Sunshine, ventilation and cleniilliii'tis are the remedies. Keeping surplus cockerels and old male birds longer tlmn Is ac- 4 tually necessary Is a wiiste. 4 Lack of cleanliness causes a terrible amount of waste, roak- lug degenerate stock and poorly grown chickens. Almost every household throws away enough tablo scraps to feed a small flock of hens. 4t t4t fifr4)!it Took the Hurt Out of Her Back Physicians report more cases of kidney trouble- among women than men. Mrs. Anna Byrd, Tuscumbia, Ala., writes: "I was down with my back so I could not stand up more than half of the time. Foley Kidney Pills -took all the hurt out , They are the best kidney pills I ever took."

THE RED CROSS SEAL The annual sale of Red Cross Christmas seals has started through out the county. It has been found in the past few years, that goodly sums of money result from the sale of these stamps at the Christmas season and the proceeds are expended- -m the nation-wide fight against' tubercu losis. There is a great and good cause behind these little stamps and in con sidering that and the large amount of suffering from the great white plague the returns from the sale of stamps are meager. The cut here with is a reproduction of the seals for this Christmas season. Seal your Christmas packages with them. About the only hardy crop that can be grown on poultry ranges for the pur pose of furnishing green food during the winter is rye, writes H E. Eswlne in the Philadelphia Press. A patch of rye near the poultry bouse will be a partial solution of the green food prob lem. In favorable weather the fowls may be allowed to pasture ou the rye. This, however, will prove an uncertain single source of green food, for there will be some days yrben the weather will not permit the birds to be out of doors. For such times It will be nec essary to have Borne other source of green food. One of the best for this purpose Is the common stock beet or mangel. More green food can be grown on a given area when planted to this crop than any other. A small space will grow enough for nn entire winter.- Where only a few hens are Uept the roots may be cut in two and each half hung on a nail within reach of the hens. They will help themselves with out further trouble. For large flocks it Is best to cut the beets Into ribbons with a machine made for the purpose rather than slicing them, thus enabling them to be eaten much more readily. Sprouted oats Is another satisfactory source of green food. Oats may be sprouted In the following manner: Place six quarts of heavy oats in a ten quart bucket. Fill the bucket with warm water. (Do not use hot water.) Ten drops of formalin added to the water will prevent mold. Let the bucket stand In a warm room for forty-eight hours. By the end of thnt time the oats will have souked up all the water. Then spread the oats lu trays. These trays ought to have a depth of about two Inches. They may be made of wood with cracks In the bot tom to let out the water, or better yet, make them of galvanized Iron with OLD SOLDIERS ELECT Nominations are Unanimous in Order of Union Veterans Officers for the ensuing year were nominated at the last meeting of Meade post No. 2, Grand Army of the Republic, and the annual election will be held on December 4.

MILLER-OBST Suspension Bridge Corner REEN FEED FOR THE POULTRY IN WINTER X I t. . i fr ' ' The Rouen duck Is the favorite In France, where It 1b highly prized both as an egg producer aud as a market fowl. It has a long, deep body, close fibered flesh of fine flavor, the mature drake weighing about nine pounds. Its plumage is much like the wild mallard, of which it is considered a descendant. The birds here pictured are a Peking duck and a Rouen drake, the Rouen being distlrtgulshed by the ring around its neck. perforated bottom. The oats should be about one Inch or less In depth. These trays should be placed lu a rack or they may be placed on the floor In the furnace room or any other well ventilated place having a temperature of CO degrees F.'or above. The room shoufd be light so as to give a green color to the oats. Sprinkle the onts well at least once a day with warm water. In from seven to ten days, de pending on the temperature, the oats will be from four to six inches high. It Is best to feed at this time, as the growing plants have used up all the plant food stored In the grain and will then be In their best condition. Ordi narily as much outs us grows on one square Inch Is sufficient, for one hen per day. It Is best to provide It at noon In troughs provided for that pur pose. Corn Produces Eggs. Corn Is an excellent poultry food. A few years ago poultry writers gensral ly advised poultrymen not to feed norn to laying hens. Chemical analysis hnn shown. It to contain more fat forming elements than wheat, and on this ac count It became very unpopular, and higher priced wheat was fed In Its place. Later, however, experiment sta. Hons In actual feeding teats showed It to be .the equal of wheat when fed In proper combinations. The Massachu setts station secured as good tf not bet ter results In egg yield from corn ax from wheat. FOOTBALL ATTRACTS Home Phona A-23 Pacllle Phone Res.tS-F-11 Office 2S1 DR. WM. C.

Huntley Drug Co. U Stores Oregon City i Game Saturday at Corvallis Will Take Many Oregon City Enthusiasts Although the betting spirit was taken out of most of Oregon City's young bloods, and the older heads likewise, by the recent close political contest, a keen interest is being shown here in connection with the annual struggle for the football honor of the state and northwest be tween the teams of the Oregon Agri cultural college and the University of Oregon.
