front houses that are simply a frame,

fodder packed and roped so that they
are tight.
We cite those instances because
there Is a tendency to spend too much
on the house and too little on the
stock to begin too big and end In the
hole.
There are a number of fine, empty
poultry houses scattered through the
country because some fellow bit off
more chicken house than he could
chew.
There is an old rule for orators that
applies here. Begin low, go slow, rise
higher, catch fire.

he pleases, but let the fellow with mod-

ernte means follow this rule when he
goes Into the business.
Ilulldlngs should be as presentable as
possible, but not costly. Above all,
practical, and it should always be re
membered that the flock is the chief
asset.
Let the beginner go slow at first,
practice economy, do his own work,
play cnrieiiter and Improvise on lum

elalmrnte buildings may be substituted.
If desired.
DON'TS.
Don't fall to keep read up, but don't
expect a house and lot as a premium
with a dollar poultry Journal.
Don't forget that it's private trade
by which the largest profits are made.
When the middleman Is between you
and your customer you are both be
tween the devil and the deep.
Don't guy the sport from whom yon
won the blue. Perhaps be would not

Don't positively declare that because
you did not succeed with a breed It Is
teetotally no good. Some t.ue may say
the same of you, but It may be true.
Don't fall to mark your oultry and
don't keep the same breed as the man
next door.

THE TURKEY FAMINE AND WHY.
There was a time when on nearly
every farm at sundown the big flock of
turkeys came prancing down the lane
and strutted and gobbled round the
farmhouse for their supper.
What a strenuous time there was to
catc h them for the market, but what a
big bunch of easy money they brought
in!
There was day when there was na
tionwide Up smacking over big, fat
roasted turkeys at Thanksgiving and
Christmas, and turkeys were every
where plentiful and low a day when
the preacher was always remembered
with a big fut turkey, when generous
employers gave them to their married
workmen, when benevolent societies
served them to the poor, and wheu
chicken as a holiday center dish was
Just too ordinary for anything.
But that day has passed.
Of 6,450,648 farms that report poul
try only 871,123 report turkeys, and the

AN UNUSUAL BIOHT.
turkey population has dropped from
6,54,005 to 3,008,708.
That's not very much turkey to fill
the aching void of 93,000,000 hungry
turkey epicures. But it's really no
wonder there Is a turkey famine. The
nature faker has bungled the Job.
The turkey has been bred and fed un
naturally, has been made prone to dis
ease, and deadly turkey blackhead has
killed millions and put most of the
country In the turkey graveyard class.
The- national and state agricultural
departments have paid little attention
to the turkey, and ten more years of
such neglect and nature fake tactics
will finish the turkey tribe. The conserv
ation and propagation of wild turkeys
for wild blood to Infuse to renew the dy
lug turkey tribe and a return to natural
methods will restore the turkey popu
lation. Until this is done the vast ma
jority must eat chicken.
While turkeys, ducks and geese de
crease, chickens jump from 23,566,921
to 280,345,133. That's three chickens
apiece for the whole population, and
tender, juicy chicken Is sure a bully
substitute for turk.
FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLS.
Occasionally a turkey hen lays in
August Such eggs should be cooked,
not set unless one lives out of the
frost belt
Thousands of thrifty housewives
will not worry if storage eggs mount
highest ever this winter. They have
millions of eggs down In water glass
and will save money and have sweeter
eggs for puddings and pumpkin pies
accordingly.
With such a big corn crop and corn
lower than most other grains, it is a
temptation to feed much of this grand
staple. But whether high or low corn
is a hog fattener, and If fed too plen
tifully the hen's egg machine soon
clogs with fat and the winter egg rec
ord Is knocked.
An old saying declares, "It Is un
lucky to bring in eggs after dark."
How true! In summer they will be
heated; In winter they will be froren
and the germ killed, and then you are
apt to gather and sell rots you have
unwisely used for nest eggs, and then
your customer quits you and calls you
a bughouse beat
We are in an era when humans are
reaching out to nature and the sim
ple life Is calling. Those who go In
for poultry will find an ever Increasing
market and a day full of hard wark
also, but such Is real life.
Forty thousand persons In one day
paid to see the poultry at the recent
show on Young's million dollar pier
at Atlantic City. That show saved
many a fellow from being lassoed.
bunkoed and then "throwed" by the
slick summer girl.
The fact that hogs can stand an
wful lot of filth is no proof that they
thrive best in that style. Same with
fowl. Let bughouse people remember
they are raising these animals to eat
not to pollute the atmosphere and
breed an epidemic.
One hundred and eighty-five million
eggs are hatched In Egyptian Incuba
tors each season, benn straw or camel
dung cakes being used for fuel. The
Egyptian operators are very skillful,
and, though the eggs are gathered
with little regard to their source, the
loss Is only about one-third.
Cuba was the largest buyer of eggs
from ' the United States last year,
4.500,000 dozen being shipped to the
island. The game, for cockflghtlng,
has tecu the principal breed. As cock
ing is now unlawful, better breeds
will supersede the game, and more
market poultry and eggs will be pro
duced.
Canada stood second among our egg
customers last year. Importing 2,250,
000 dozens. Winter eggs were at a
premium, sold higher than In the Unit
ed States, and tho demand was greater
than the supply.
Sr.'CING MOTHERS.
Charm of tha Music of Their Voices to
Tnair Little Onas.
They came to me in a dream -those
singing mothers. A long, slow pro
cession of shadowy forms, beautiful as
rainbows and as wonderful, singing a
strange haunting melody full of mys
tery. First came troops of girl moth
ers, clasping their little babes with a
tenderness that was half fear and
with wide. Inquiring eyes filled with
holy light and the consciousness of the
deepest realization of life. Then came
strong mothers of youth, leading hap
py faced children and confident with
a sense of power, buoyant with hope
and radiant with promise. Last of all
came silver mothers of men. leaning
on their stalwart sons and, though
bowed with years, yet gloriously
young in spirit hallowed by memories
and glowing with the victory of
achievement. And I. a mother, watch
ing these pass by and listening to their
haunting music, felt as never before
the divine significance of motherhood
and all the bidden meanings In the
word "singing."
All this Is music In a marvelous
mood, but there Is no music on earth
more appealing or more far reaching
than the voice of a mother singing to
ber little ones. So audience ever lis
tened with keener rapture to any
prima donna than that little group
gathered in the twilight bonr at a
motber'a knee. It is ber dearest Joy
at that time to put Into music all the
sacred ness of motherhood and the hap
piness of childhood, to teach and to
charm and to tuue the hearts of her

man. Wide Apart
It is told tis that two old schoolmates
met recently. It bad been fifteen years
since their last meeting, but the recog
nition was mutual. One was sleek,
well fed, well shaven, well dressed.
The other was rather thin, rather
seedy.
"Well, well." exclaimed the prosper
ous one; "what are you doing now?"
"I am an actor."
"Indeed? Well, I'm a banker. And
you are on the stage? Dear met It's
been ten years since 1 was In a thea
ter." "You've got nothing on me. It's been
longer than that since I was In a
bank."
Then they parted, each thinking a bit
less of the other than be bad thought
before the meeting. Cleveland Plain

Solona In an Uproar.
Some years ago the Spanish cabinet
decided to take legal proceedings
against certain members of Parliament
who were suspected of misusing pub
lic money. The opposition resolved
at all costs to prevent this, and for
forty hours on end they kept op a most
amazing uproar. They cheered and
shouted, and sang litanies In chorus.
The effect of the latter performance
waa extraordinary. One deputy would
loudly Intone a verse, all his friends
chanted the response, and so they went
on for nearly two days and nights un
til a truce was proclaimed. Pearson's
