During the winter hens cannot keep up a high egg production un less they are properly managed, according to C. F. Parrish, exten sion poultryman at North Carolina State college. Feeding, he points out, is perhaps the most important item. No hen can be expected to do her best unless fed the proper grains, mashes, and green feeds. Then the poultryman must pay strict attention to the housing prob lem. Poorly constructed and drafty houses are not conducive to high egg production. The houses must be comfortable or the birds will suf fer and a consequent decline in the number of eggs will be noted. Inferior birds should be culled from the flock. These poor produc ers, if allowed to remain, will bring the average of the flock down sharply. Poultry Notes In Michigan eggs are sold by the pound. • • • Gather eggs daily; market at least twice a week. • • • It is a severe drain on a bird to go through the molt. « • • Hens that grow broody often are likely candidates for culling. • • • Pullets need to be graded and put into different pens according to their maturity. Bunyan Created Lakes Ambition of Man Elk and Torch lakes, the beau tiful finger lakes that stretch par allel for miles along the shore of Lake Michigan near Elk Rapids, date back to the days of Paul Bunyan, according to the old lum berjacks. Lake Michigan, they say, was scooped out by the mighty Paul, to be used as a log pond. Instead of skidding the logs into a stream and floating them down to his pond Paul would hitch onto a section of land and drag it over to the lake, log off the timber, and then haul the section back. One day Paul hooked onto a particularly heavy timbered sec tion near the Boardman and started Babe, the blue ox, out to haul it over to the lake. There had been a heavy rain, the ground was greasy, and Babe’s feet slipped. Torch and Elk lakes remain, an eternal testimonial to the blue ox and the time his feet slipped.— Detroit Free Press. At four—to wear pants. At eight — to miss Sunday School. At twelve—to be President. At eighteen — to have mono grammed cigarettes. At twenty—to take a show girl out to dinner.

Queen to Beggar No more striking misfortune than that of Nathalie Keschko has befallen a woman of modern times. From 1875 to 1888 she was the Queen of Serbia — famous, wealthy and beloved by her sub jects. In 1931 she was a common beggar in the back streets of Paris — homeless, penniless and without a friend in the world.— Collier’s Weekly. Here's Simple Way to Ease a Cold Two Quick-Acting, Quick-Dissolving Bayer Aspirin Tablets with a Glass of Water The modern way to ease a cold is this: Two Bayer Aspirin tablets the moment you feel a cold coming on. Then repeat, if necessary, according to instructions in the box. At the same time, if you have a sore throat, crush and dissolve three BAYER tablets in one-third glass of water. And gargle with this mixture twice. The Bayer Aspirin you take in ternally will act to combat fever and the pains which usually ac company colds. The gargle will act as a medicinal gargle to provide al most instant relief from rawness and pain. It is really marvelous; for it acts like a local anesthetic on the irritated membrane of your throat. 1 1 Try this way. Your doctor, we know, will endorse it. For it is a quick, effective means of combating a cold. Ask for Bayer Aspirin by the full name at your druggist’s — not for “aspirin” alone. 1UV FOR A DOZEN 2 FULL DOZEN FOR 25C VIRTUALLY 1C A TABLET —1.
