THE LEGION CARNIVAL In an effort to clean up some of their debts, the Verno­ nia post of the American Legion will sponsor a carnival and circus April 25 and 26. Vernonia post has done more than its share of welfare work for the benefit of disabled war veterans and ex- service men during the past few years and before the advent of the Community Chest in Vernonia aid was given to needy folk in this vicinity. Additional betterments and furnishing their club rooms has plunged the post in debt. In order to pay those to whom they owe money—mostly the Vernonia merchants— the carnival, aided by another edition of “The Flying Ape, will be staged the latter part of this month in the hope of alleviating their present embarrassing financial condi­ tion. Every town is better for having an American Legion post. Its principles of Americanism and attitude toward civic welfare, make it an organization of which the citizens of any city may well be proud. These men and women who carried on during 1917 and 4918 still “serve in peace as in war,” and are back of every movement beneficial to the welfare of nation, state and community. Feed the Chick» The first rule for getting good profits from poultry is to hatch the chicks early and the next is to keep them growing so that they will reach laying maturity before cold weather. The young chicks should not be fed until they are 48 hours old, whether they are with a hen or in a brooder. A good feed at first is a mixture of 4 parts yellow corn meal, 2 parts rolled oats, 2 parts bran, 1 part mid­ dlings and 1 part sifted meat scrap or dried milk. Hard-boiled, infertile eggs may be mixed in the mash, using 1 part egg to 6 parts mash, in which case the meat meal may be reduced one- half. After two or three weeks gradually substitute for this ra­ tion, once or twice daily, a mix­ ture of equal parts of finely cracked corn and wheat or com­ mercial chick feed. The chicks should be fed from three to four times daily. The chicks may bo fed sparingly during the day, but the last meal in the after­ noon should always be liberal. Must Look Right to Sell Right Althoughram lambs are dis­ criminated against on the mar­ ket because they are less well developed and lack a uniform, attractive appearance, about three-quarters of the male na­ tive lambs (those marketed from farm flocks) which reach the market are uncastrated and a larger portion of the native lambs marketed are undocked, says the U. S. department of agriculture. The fnct that range lambs sell on the market at pric­ es averaging around $1 to $1.50 per hundred pounds higher than farm raised lambs is to a consid­ erable extent due to the custom of docking all lambs and cas­ trating the ram lambs in range flocks. Further information on castrating and docking lambs can be secured from the bureau of animal husbandry, U.
