Have You Vision? • We can help you achieve your aim in life. With approach of the time of year for moving pullets in off of range to laying houses these fall manage ment practices have been found to give satisfaction. Let the first group to be moved in include those pullets which are most advanced, are showing considerable comb development and are about read? to begin laying. Of the pullets left on range, it will become evident a couple of weeks that possibly half of them are then also ready to be moved in. That will leave on range only the slower maturing, less thrifty pul lets, which without competition from the stronger, thriftier pullets will V nerally show a surprising develop ment. In this last group there will b pullets not making a satisfactory growth, which pullets it is usually good economy to finish off for the market. If the pullets are to be used in the second year as breeders, different colored leg bands put on as they are brought in off range will be of con siderable value in selecting the earlier maturing birds as breeders. Most farm poultrymen realize the importance of thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting their poultry houses against red mite infestation before moving the pullets in from range. If any body lice are found on the pullets, sodium fluoride sprinkled well into the pullet’s feathers will kill the lice. Or nicotine sulphate ap plied to the roosts late in the after noon will give oft fumes, which will exterminate the lice while the pul lets are roosting. Good ventilat'on, without too much draft on real cool nights is especially important for a few weeks after the pullets are housed in off range. In this connection, in sulated houses are much cooler in the summer and also much warmer in the winter. Elaborate insulation is not necessary. Straw lofts will often provide sufficient insulation at very low cost. It is always wise to have the pul lets switched over tc their complete laying rations before they are brought in from the range. Skimmilk for Poultry On farms where liquid skimmilk is available it will be found to be an economical source of good pro teins. When liquid milk is not avail able a condensed or dried skimmilk or buttermilk may be used for poultry. When liquid milk is avail I able it should be used as the only drink tor the first three or four weeks. The liquid milk may be fed from earthenware, tin, aluminum or granite fountains. Galvanized foun tains are not as satisfactory for liquid milk. “Planning Your Future” FREE ON REQUEST With the Poultrymen Starvation was used as a means of a living by Herr Greiter, of Budapest, or, as he was known tn the circus profession, Professor Agrippa, who was for 20 years un challenged Hungarian champion in the starvation act. People flocked to circuses and fairs to see Professor Agrippa, sealed in a glass box, starving without food and drink for days. His record of thirty-two days in a sealed box without a bite to eat, remains unbroken. With the world crisis came a slump in the starving profession and Professor Agrippa fell out of a job. Recently an elderly man collapsed in a Budapest street. An ambulance sped up and took him off to hospital. ,On the way he died. He was Professor Agrip pa. Physicians who examined him in hospital pronounced that he died of — starvation. — Montreal Herald. to join the Dizzy Dean Winners and win valuable free prizes.—Adv.

Salmon at 11th Avenue Tricks of the "Uns" In his contribution to the new Morris book, Mr. Shaw speaks of the Fabian but top-hatted Mr, Hyndman as “altogether an as suming man, quite naturally and unconsciously.” The word is well chosen, but how seldom it is that we find “assuming” used as the opposite to “unassuming.” But “uns” play us many tricks of that kind. A man may be uncouth, but who ever was "couth?” Who ever heard of a “ruly” instead of an unruly temper?
