Developed by Department of Agriculture. (Prepared by the U 1 States Department of Agriculture.) The Lamona, the new white-egg-lay- ing general-purpose fowl originated and being developed by the Upited States Department of Agriculture, made its first public appearance at the Madison Square Gacden poultry show, held in New York from January 25 to 30, where 15 of the birds were shown in the open classes. In addi- tion to the Lamonas, and other govern- ment-bred fowls of standard breeds, the department put on an extensive | exhibit consisting of models of poultry houses, a display of feathers of the standard breeds, appliance such as feed hoppers, brood coups, and a fat- re ee et Typical Lamona Hen, tening battery. A series of panels, made up of photographs, charts, and placards, showed the more important standard breeds, the feeding of hens for egg production, the preparation of birds fur exhibition, the advantages of early hatching, the improvement re sulting from the use of a high quality sire, capons and caponizing, culling the farm flock, and the pedigree breeding of poultry A number of department representa tives took part in the program of the | show and gave information to the vis: itors conce g the educational exhib it They reported an extraordinary interest on the part of the public and breeders in the La obtain breeding birds. The depart | ment believes it necessary to perfect still more as regards certain characteristics, and it is not likely that any will be for sale during the coming year.

There fore, grading eggs Is essential, not only from the standpoint but from the buye! for an ungraded, un- standardized egg is more or less of an uncertain quantity. The market- ing of such a product is never advised since it puts an unnecessary handicap on the buyer who never knows what quality he will receive.

Variety in rations is one of the most important things connected with good feeding So tion will give times e ir results because of the variety that enters into it. Don't expect the fowls to find grit for theniselves. No matter how much range they may have it is best to keep grit, charcoal, oyster shells, ete., con- stantly befcre them. ee Accumulated moisture in the poultry | and an overcrowded condition | house are directly responsible for the colds and roup which weaken the vitality of the ‘ids, cuusing them to easily suc ‘umb to other diseases.

In asserting that this diseovery marks a new chapter in the history of dietetics, and opens | up an enlarged field of consumption for this grain, scientists explain that the transformation of natural ele- ments into a milk has been carried on through the water roots of the rice plant, “upon the same principle as that by which the milk is drawn from Mother Nature through the veins of the cow into the udder.” According to W. M. Queen, a con- tributor to the Rice Journal, the sun’s heat performs the work direct- ly and in a most perfect manner, re- | quiring more time than the cow to complete the process of making its milk. The result is the rice kernel, which is nothing more than a con- centrated, qrystalized milk—which be turned into the flowing liquid form. FOREST WASTE MADE USEFUL Fallen Timber Can Be Employed to Advantage in the Manufacture of Grape Stakes, Many persons at one time or an- other have been struck with the waste of material that is permitted in American forests as compared with the care of Europeans, as a rule, to item from the Pacific coast which shows that fallen timber in some of the forests out that way is to be used extensively in the manufacture of grape stakes for California vine- yards. One order for these stakes will re- quire, we are told, 100 freight cars for its transportation, but the best thing about it is that it will reclaim cedar trunks that have been on the ground for years. ‘The difficulty | about such reclamation in general is not so much in finding “down stuff” | that is sound enough to be useful as it is in discovering a use that will make recovery profitable. RADIO POSSIBILITIES “The probable effect of radio de- velopment upon the world is a sub- ject so far-reaching in its possibili- ties that it is dazzling,” said H. Gernsback, editor of Science and In- vention, at a recent engineering con- ference in New York. “The radio industry is an infant that will grow into gigantic importance in a very | short time. Although it will prob- ably never replace the telephone, it will become a necessity. Even now, with international communication in a highly developed stage, it has | opened the door to a universal lan- | guage. It will ultimately break the | barriers of distinctive languages that | have long been detrimental to inter- | national intercourse, NEW FIELD FOR BAD BOYS The American bad boy, brought to |fame by Thomas Bailey Aldrich, Henry Augustus Shute, Booth Tar- kington, and many others, has now a new field for adventure and mis- adventure. His voice is very loud and very persistent in the air, wire- less telephone owners say. He vi- brates and booms and generally blocks transit for concerts and speeches and many other serious matters. Doubtless before long, “cops of the air” will be telling the young- sters what they may do and what | they may not, but until then, every | “real boy” has his day. FUN AT WINTER CARNIVAL | Dog teams, ski jumping and snow shoe relay races were features of the winter carnival held in Portland, Me., recently, in which the Y. W. C. A. participated. The snow shoe dash, the ski jumping and joring races, and other contests, including ice racing behind horses, were im- mensely popular. Exhibition skat- ing and hockey games were also | featured. AIR PHOTOGRAPHY | Photography from the air, with- out an airplane, is now possible by means of a special arrangement of | kites and cameras, designed by a Frenchman. The camera travels up the kite string by means of special lifting planes, while an automatic timing device takes pictures any ——_———— | | in turn may, by a natural process, | make use of every last twig that falls. | Worth noting, therefore, is the news | | Your help is vital. POSTAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK IS OBSERVED May 1 Sees Inaugurated First General Campaign of Kind in Service. | Without the Postal Service, business would languish In a day, and be at a standstill in a week. Public opinion would die of dry rot. Sectional hatred or prejudice only would flourish, and narrow-mindedness thrive. In the world and it comes nearer to the innermost Interests of a greater num- ber of men and women than any other Institution on earth. No private busi- ness, however widespread, touches 80 many lives so often or sharply; no church flutters so many pulses, has so many human beings dependent on Its min- istrations. “Postal Improvement Week” has been set for May 1, by the Postmaster General. This 1s the first general cam- paign of its kind In the Postal Service for several decades. Business men and their organizations, large users of the mall, newspapers, motion pictures, advertisers, and the entire organiza- tion of 326,000 postal workers are to be enlisted in this country-wide campaign of interest in postal improvements. Address your let- ters plainly with pen or typewriter. Give street address. Spell out name of State, don’t abbreviate. Put your return address in the upper left hand corner of envelope (not on the back) and always look at your letter before dropping In the mail to see if it is Properly addressed. This care in the use of the mails is for your benefit and speeds up the dispatch and delivery of mail matter. If you have any complaints of poor service make them to your postmaster. He has instructions to investigate them | and report to the department, COURTESY It sticks in human relations like postage stamps on letters. The POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT ex- pects it to be used by its postmasters and employees in dealing with the public. Help them in its use beginning with POSTAL IMPROVEMENT WERK, May 1-6, 1922. THANK YOU WITHOUT STREET ADDRESS YOUR MAIL IS DELAYED AT OFFICE OF DELIVERY The Dead Letter Office has been In existence ever since Ben Franklin started our postal service. Even then people addressed mail to Mr. Ezekiel Smithers, “Atlantic Coast,” and ex- pected Ben to know just where Zeke lived. Perhaps they had Zeke's address In letters up In the garret, maybe a chest full of ‘em, but then It was easier to let Ben hunt Zeke. Today people are addressing letters to John Smith, New York, N. Y., or Chicago, TIL, thinking Uncle Sam can locate him, which is just as Incomplete as was Zeke’s ad- dress of yore. The Postoffice Depart- ment asks you to put the number and street in the address. It helps you. How do you expect the Postal Clerk to know whether you mean Trinidad, California, or Trinidad, Colorado? ALWAYS SPBLL OUT THE NAME OF THE STATE IN FULL IN THE ADDRESS. “MORE BUSINESS IN GOVERNMENT” This apt phrase was used in Presl- dent Harding’s first message to Con- gress and applies particularly in postal management where postmastera are being impressed with the fact that they are managers of local branches of the biggest business In the world. Let's make our post office look neat, Mr. Postmaster. Straighten up the rural letter box, Mr. Farmer. Tidy up some, Mr. Rural Carrier. First impressions are lasting. Maybe Mr. Stranger, taking notice of these im- provements, will come back, bringing you benefits, Start these with “POS- TAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK" May 16. HUMANIZING THE POSTAL SERVICE “There is no unimportant person or part of our service. It is a total of human units and their co-operation is the key to its success. In its last analysis, postal duties are accommo- dations performed for our neighbors and friends and should be so regarded, rather than as a hired service per- formed for an absentee employer.”— Postmaster Genera!
