Phone 922 BEMIDJI PIONEER Notice To Taxpayers WYANDOTTE A FINE GENERAL UTILITY BIRD There is no American breed that in popularity leads the Wyandotte, for the reason that that breed combines in the highest “type the good qualities which go to make up a general purpose fowl, writes M. K. Boyer in the Knick- erbocker Press. I am not saying this to the detriment of the Plymouth Rock nor the Rhode Island Reds nor any other breed. They all have a noble mission, but I do say, without a bit of hesitation, the Wyandottte breed is today the farm- ers’ fowl. & Bradshaw, the well known Austra- lian poultry-expert, says he has been a patient observer of Wyandottes ever since their introduction into that coun- try, and although he does not say they are the best of all and the only breed, Today's News Today Read The Bemidji Dail); Pioneer For - Today's News Today.

LR SR ST XXX T XL X X2 he does maintain that they have every essential factor which goes to consti tute them a most profitable breed to keep and highly deserving of the high- est position among the several breeds embodied in the comprehensive nomen- clature of farmers’ fowls. J. Penfold Field, a celebrated Eng- lish authority, says the Wyandottes are par excellence the farmer’s fowl. The late Joseph Wallace said the Wyandotte, although not excelling in ‘The problem of feeding hens is a great one. The bird needs certain constituents, such as mineral food, nitrogenous focd and carbonaceous food. All of these are found in the grains, in_corn, wheat, oats, buck- wheat and barley. But all are not found in any one grain in_the prop- er proportions. So we add animal feeds and green feed. Follow na- ture and you will go rightly. She supplies bugs, worms, greens, grains, minerals, exercise and fresh air. The picture shows a bunch of half grown.pullets on clover. any special®quality, is the happy pos sessor of an even and well balanced organism, which makes it preferable to the majority of breeders over breeds excelling in some points and deficient in others. It is the equalization of use ful qualities in the Wyandotte which makes it so popular. There is no ex cess of one quality at the expense of the other. Mr. Bradshaw says that one impor tant feature of the breed is the fact that, being rather short legged -and cobby in build, with consequently finer bones and smaller carcass than the Langshan, Rock or Orpington, when the latter three breeds, but particularly the first two, are growing a framework of bones, on which later on to place a big carcass of meat, the Wyandotte is growing flesh and- bones at the same time, and if caught at'any time during the second, third and fourth month the Wyandotte will be plumper and flesh- ier than the other breeds and always in killing condition within the above pe- riod and if well fed from hatching to killing time will require no special fat- tening for the market. Now, it is not only as a table fowl that the Wyandotte excels. As a steady layer, as a producer of good sized, good shaped and good colored eggs it has no superior in the American class. As a winter layer it has proved itself to be excellent; and in the yards of the writ- er, tested alongside of Barred and ‘White Plymouth Rocks and Rhode Is- land Reds, it not only led in the race of winter egg production, but it did so without hurt, for it partook of and as- similated more food than any of the other varieties and- that, too, without laying on fat. Separate the Sexes. Separate the sexes as soon as they can be distinguished, placing each by itself. Both will do better. The pul- lets. especially should not be crowded nor those males intended for breeding purposes the next year. PEPRBETPELIOD DS £ & POULTRY PICKINGS. As the sun begins to warm things up do not fail to provide shade for the chicks. Also pro- vide shelter for' them-to run to when a sudden storm comes. As the old fowls approach the moulting ‘season do not have them too fat. In starting small chicks out of doors give them a small run at first and jnerease the size gradu- ally. Every breeder knows the im- portance of isolating birds hav- ing contagious diseases. When you clean the houses next time don’t overlook the old nesting material. Be careful about using any nesting ma- terial-that has-an odor.

COLONEL ROOSEVELT URGES PROGRESSIVES TO SUPPORT HUGHES (Continued from Page 1) ‘porting Mr. Hughes. Life a Guarantee. “Mr. Hughes’ character and . his whole course of conduct in public af- fairs justify us in the assured con- viction that the fact that these men have for their own purposes ~sup- ported him will, in no shape or way, affect his 'public actions before or after election. His entire public life is a guarantee of this. “The events of the last three and a half years have shown that'as much cannot be said for Mr. Wilson. In Mr. Wilson’s case we do not have to consider his words, but his deeds. His deeds absolutely contradiet his words; and for the matter of that his ‘words absolutely contradict one an- other. It is folly to pay heed to any of the promises in the platform on which he now stands in view of the fact that almost every important promise contained in the platform on which he stood four years ago has since been broken. We owe all our trouble with the professional Ger- man-American element in the United States to Mr. Wilson’s timid and va- cillating course during the last two years. Wilson Wanting. “Mr. Wilson has been tried and found wanting. His party, because of its devotion to the outworn theory of state rights, and because of its reliance upon. purely sectional sup- port, stands against that spirit of far sighted nationalism which is essen- tial if we are to deal adequately with our gravest social and industrial prob- lems. Mr. Wilson and his party have in actual practice lamentably failed to safeguard the interest and honor of the United States. They have breught us to impotence abroad and to division and weakness at home. They have accustomed us to see the highest and most responsible offices of government filled by incompetent men appointed only for reasons of partisan policies. They have dulled the moral sense of the people. . They have taught us that peace, the peace of cowardice and dishonor and in- difference to the welfare of others, is to be put above righteousness, above the stern and unflinching per- formance of duty whether the duty is pleasant or unpleasant. Yet in Mex- ico they have failed even to secure the peace which they thus sought; and they have failed in spite of the most ample opportunity and most am- ple warning, to prepare in any real fashion to meet the crisis which their own policy invited.” They have taught us to put ‘safety first,” safety before duty and homor; to put that materialism which expresses itself in mere money making, and in the fatted eas of life, above all spiritual things, above all the high and fine instinets of the soul. They have taught us to accept adroit elocution as a substi- tute for straightforward and efficient action. They have raised indecision, hesitancy and vacillation into a set- tled governmental policy. Hughes Straightforward. “Mr. Hughes has shown in his career thé instinct of efficiency which will guarantee that, under him, the government will once more work with vigor and force. He possesses the habit of straightforward thinking which means that his words will be correlated with his deeds and trans- lated into facts. His past career is the warrant for our belief that he will be the unfaltering opponent of that system of invisible government which finds expression in the domina- tion of the party boss and the party machine. His past career is a guar- antee that whatever he says before election will be made good by his acts after election. Morally, - his public record shows him to be a man of unbending integrity; intellectually it shows him to be a man of original and trained ability. We have the al- ternative of continuing in office an administration which has proved a lamentable failure, or putting into office an administration which we have every reason to believe will function with efficiency for the in- terest and honor of all our people. I arnestly bespeak from my fellow Pro- gressives their ungrudging support of Mr. Hughes.” Carter Cutter, assistant cashier of the First State bank of Norwich, N. D., arrived in the city this morning for a visit with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. A, Cutter.
