Rules For Caring. F of Poultry In Winter To successfully winter-poultry there are a number of points in their care that should be watched closely. Ross | M. Sherwood: of the Kansas Agricul- tural college poultry department men- | tions: the following: rales as those that Willie Hoppe, me world’s billiard champion, still maintains his marvel: ous skill and, indeed, seems to improve his: wonderful manipulation of cue and balls. Tu a recent exhibition match in San Francisco he ran 250 from the spot Photo by American Press Assoclation. WILLIE HOPPE. at:18.2 balk line. As the match was for only 250 points, his opponent had no : chance to start. and Hoppe went out without a miss. Hoppe ran 622 from the spot at 18.2 balk line in a match in Paris some years ago. The contest was .Hmited to 800 points, but in accordance with the option given by the French :rules Hoppe kept on until he missed. Hoppe's record in a championship match is 308, made in the handicap tournament in New York. The picture shows Hoppe executing a masse shot. Red Murray ‘Comes Backs ¢ 1 Jobny .(“Red”): Murray, for many -years--outfielder of the New York Giants, last season with the Toronto International league team, has signed a contract with-the McGraw outfit for the coming season as an extra out- flelder. ki Passing of Lajoie. i+ Larry -Lajole, whose contract with the Philadelphia Athletics expired Jan. 1,-has ‘agreed on terms to manage the TPoronto club the coming season. Lajoie thus passes out of the major leagues after twenty years of active service. should be given special attention dur- ing the winter season: ‘Watering pans should be emptied at night to prevent freezing. A “slight increase in egg prodncr.lon may be obtained:by.feeding the chick- ens a warm mash once daily, but care must be taken not to have the feed too bot. Either keep the birds in the house all the time or let them have free range. Letting. them out one week and then keeping them in one week is sure to cut down the egg yield. Green feed stimulates digestion and gives egg yolks a richer color. Poultry houses should be free from drafts and dampness. Fresh air and sunshine are two of the best disinfectants. Dropping: boards should be -cleaned at least once a week. Litter on the floor should be removed as soon as it becomes damp. For the best egg yields do not neg- lect the protein feeds, such as butter- milk and meat scrap. Silage is a cheap form of succulence or green feed. fe2 2222212122222 Ll oty THE PILGRIM SPIRIT. The pilgrim spirit has not fled; It walks in noon’s broad light, And it watches the bed of the glo- rious dead ‘With the holy stars by night; It watches the bed of the brave who have bled And still guard this icebcund shore Till the waves of the bay where the Mayflower lay Shall foam and freeze no more. —~John Pierpont.

The shine cannot be permanently removed from any material, but it can be so treated that it will keep its shiny face in the background for a little while. First of all, brush the garment well Then -purchase a lump of ammonia from a drug store and disgolve it in one pint of boiling water. With an old stocking—this is better than any other cloth—dipped in the ammonia so- lution rub the shiny part backward and forward. Wash off the ammonia with a brush and clean hot water. Hang the suit up to dry in the shade. ‘When pressing the garment wet it with hot (not boiling) water instead of cold. Lay the cloth on the suit and press with a hot iron until dry. Then wet the cloth again and iron lightly, but not enough to dry the cloth. It is this lat- ter-treatment that gives the material the dull new finish to take the place of the old shine. Bran ‘Muffins. One-half cupful of bran, one and one- half cupfals of flour, one-quarter cup- ful of sugar, one tablespoonful of but- ter, one egg, one cupful of milk, one teaspoonful of salt, four teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Sift the flour, bak- ing powder, sugar and then the bran together; add milk gradually, then well beaten egg and melted butter. Bake in hot oven in gem or iron pans twenty to thirty minutes. i Dry Clothes, iWarm Feet HOt Lemonade SIMPLE precautions; but wonderfully helpful in I'RIDAY FEBRUARY 16, 1917 $360.00 FORD RAISES PRICE ON .CERTAIN PARTS RADIATOR used to be $18 00, now raised to $22.00.
