At this time of the year the beginner is deeply thinking which Is the best way to obtain a good start with poultry whether to purchase hatching eggs, chicks or grown birds. The question is not easy to answer. The right kind of stock, the quality kind, is the most expensive at the start, the day-old chick the next and the cheapest would be the eggs for batching. In the past eggs for hatching had a great demand and many beginners raised good egg producers and prize winners from eggs obtained from the leading breeders. Rut the traneaction was not wholly satisfactory, due to poor egg carriers and undue roughness in handling them in transit, and with the coming of the day-told chick the egg for hatching trade took a slump. Fortunately, within the past year a carrier has been invented that will really carry eggs without breakage, and is so constructed that much of the shock received during transit is eliminated. This being the case the poultry breed er can once again look forward to the hatching egg; trade becom ing larger, for when once the poultry buyer is assured that high priced eggs will reach him in good shape, and with the as surance that the fertile ones will hatch, the demand will become stronger, because every beginner realizes that it is possibly one of the cheapest ways to get a good Etart. One can purchase good chicks. but it chicks one selected from prize winning pens either exhi bltion or high-egg records, these chicks cannot be secured cheap ly. If they purchased breeding stock, they must obtain the stock that they can afford not always what they know they should obtain because of the high cost, but in eggs for hatching they can purchase and obtain eggs that come from record hens, and when hatched one specimen may be worth many times the cost of the entire lot of eggs- in fact be ginners have raised birds from eggs they In their maiden effort could not afford to purchase' due to the unsatisfactory shipping of eggs many breeders prefer to sell day-old chicks and breeding stock, and in a great many cases the egg buyers have caused this feeling among the breeders, due to their unreasonable demands.' The breeder, when sending out hatching eggs, knows full well that the purchaser cannot obtain better results than he himself gets; that eggs do not or cannot no matter what breed or variety, run 100 percent fertile, nor will every fertile eggs hatch a chick, or the chicks hatched and raised be better than the parent stock. Poor sitting hens, poor handling of the incubator, poor brooding and then followed by careless handling of the chicks in the rais ing have many times been laid at the door of the breeder who has sold bis best hatching eggs. The replacement, even at halt the cost, is expensive, and It is out natural that the leading breeders in this country welcomed a de mand for breeding stock only. But' this does not lessen the fact that sittings from $5 up of quality stock is the cheapest it the begin ner has success with the hen which is entrusted with the eggs. or when a large number are to be hatched that the incubator is properly handled. For an example: a breeder of known reputation has from five to ten wonderful pens mated up Pens that contain all high quality fowls, which have excelled the rest of the flock. Does the be ginner imagine that the buyer of poultry could get one of these birds without paying what they were worth? And in many cases they could not be bought. But eggs from these same pens can be purchased and the chances are good that the buyer will get specimens almost as good as the parents. In some cases i tnese breeders will sell chicks, but. here again, the price would go up, and so from an economical viewpoint the hatching egg i3 cheapest from a quality standpoint in the long run, especially now with an egg case that will stand ordinary ex press or post handling. The one great reason in all poultry trans actions that has caused disap pointment in the past is the fact that the beginner usually expects too much for the money invested and perhaps this is, in a measure. ue to extravagant advertise ments, a thing that in same cases has gone to the danger point. There are all grades of breed ers: room ror an in ineir cnosen field: but when breeders of good quality fowls overstep the limits by making claims that are exag gerated to keep pace with some more skillful breeder with official tfwards of merit to back their claims, it is time to call a halt on this practice. The majority or breeders send out full value for the money received, but duts to wonderful records made by some breeders and just ones the purchaser of eggs, chicks or stock is disappointed when the fowls do not all look like prize winners, or make the average of 200 eggs per hen In the year. A little more truth about the poultry business and fewer rainbows would do a lot of good Let the beginner know that, properly conducted, the poultry business can be made to pay. Hut that the 200-egg yield per flock is yet far away; that all eggs are 0 WJ kellis. Sunday. March 13. at the Silverton hospital, a daughter. Little.

I knew that chc was consumed with emotions that would have beaten to the ground a weaker woman, but I also knew that the rapid, sinuous pacing was my friend's invariable method ot getting herself under control, and I waited silently, patiently, until she should ot her own volition turn to me. At last, as her pacing brough her near the cleverly concealed wall safe in which she kept he most valuable things she sudden ly swerved, uncovered and un locked it. and took from a box within a folded paper.

Of all the queer situa tions which had resulted from Lillian's tangled life this seemed to me the most bizarre. My friend's forehead furrowed Into a frown, which, however, was Involuntary, for she banished it the next instant. "Of course, I do net know that finding Harry was his reason," she said, "but I am led to be lieve it from things he had said and written to me. And then the fact that only a few days after the disappearance of Dicky and Harry behind the lines he got himself transferred to the corps of entertainers with the army of occupation indicated very strong ly that he had some idea ot the sort In his mind." "Did he write you that he was going Into Germany?" I asked. "No." she returned. "The last letter I received " lrom him was written weeks before that. But MM Batteri.es Real Bargain Days For the Man Who Builds Rents are high as ever, jet lumber and building ma terials have come down down with a crash. In many cases our prices are 33 per cent lower than those of a year ago. - For the man who plans to build, repair, or remodel this is certainly a favorable time. The country as a whole is four years behind in its building program. Our own city needs 1000 homes to bring conditions back to normal. Peor-lev must build, soon, and increased building is sure to bring higher .prices. The present situation is the result of forced selling by manufacturers who are over stocked. - These manufacturers were caught by the lull in buying and they must convert their stocks into ready money. In many cases they are selling at cost. When building begins again they will be quick to ask their legitimate profits once more. We have a big stock of building materials, includ ing all kinds of lumber, Vulcanite roofing and Beaver Board, paints, kalsomine and builders' hardware. Falls City-Salem Lumber Co. N -j ' C. B.

"Read that, Madge," she said tensely, "and you'll understand why I sometimes teel that I can not bear this suspense which con stantly hangs over me." fehe seated herself' Tn a chair near me. and I saw her lay her hands upon the arms, pres. her ringer-tips fiercely against the polished wood. With my own fingers trembling I opened the sheet of letter paper, a page from the cheap tablets furnished to the soldiers, and read the few words it contained. "My Dear: "There is, of course, no appeal from your decision. I bow my head to it. realizing that either you must have been mistaken ta what you told me before I came over, or that I misunderstood your meaning. It you bad ever really experienced the feeling you professed at that time you could not. even for the sake of your fetich duty, so deny your self and me now. There is only one service I can render you From what I have learned the world is not sate for you at pres ent. It never will be safe as long as one condition prevails. To make the world safe for you, my dear, is my one purpose now. but in carrying out that purposa 1 shall lose my chance of ever see ing you again. Faithfully. ROBERT." I read the letter twic?. laid it In my lap and stared at Lillian. "What do you make of it?" she asked. "I think his reason has given way again." I returned promptly. "This isn't the letter of a sane man." r "I know," she said wearily. "But he is sane enough to be re sponsible. Oh. Madge!" sh-.; put her hands to her forehead de spairingly. "I don't know wbat to do where to turn. It is months since I have beard. And with that obsession in Robert's brain that he must rid me of Harry how do I know what ter rible thing may not have hap pened out there?" Betty's knock sounded upon the door. Lillian motioned me to open it. As I obeyed her I real ized that the doorbell had rung a minute or two before, but that we had paid no attention to it. The door opened at my touch, re vealing Betty's smiling black face, and behind her, almost as white' as if he were his own ghost summoned by our conver sation, stood Robert Savarin. (To be continued TOKIO. Feb. 22. (Correspon dence of The Associated Press) That Japan's foreign trade would show no remarkable increase of imports in the future and that consequently there would be no marked decreases in the amount of Japan's specie holdings, was the opinion voiced by Governor Inouye of the Bank of Japan ad dressing the Toklo bankers. Governor Inouyewa s referring to existing adverse conditions in Japanese commercial and indus trial life. "The best measure for tiding over the present depressed situa tion." said Governor Inouye, "are in the first placa. to reduce the cost of production to the lowest possible point. The cost of pro duction of various merchandise in this country is disproportionately high, compared with the level or other countries. .With a high cost of production. Japanese mer chandise cannot possibly compete with manufacturers of other countries, and this forms a great obstacle to the development ot the export trade of Japan. "Reduction of the cost ot pro duction is. accordingly, not only a matter of imperative necessity of the moment, but is also good for the permanent interests of the country. It may bring about a fall in wages and diminish the buying power of the lower and middle classes for a time, but this must be tolerated for the purpose of attaining the funda mental consolidation of the finan clal world. "Secondly, our manufacturers traders, bankers, . insurance and shipping circles are required to make concerted efforts for main gaining the market which was developed abroad for Japanese merchandise during the war per lod.
