A Card From
W. H. Fountain
To the Voters of Ben Hill County:
1 wish to express to the voters
of the county my appreciation for
their confidence as expressed for
me at the polls. I assure them all,
whether they voted for me or not,
that as far as in my power I will
conduct the office of sheriff impar
tially and to the best interest of
the people of the county. With
special privileges fcr none I will
try and do my duty towards all as
the law provides,
Respectfully,
W. H. Fountain,
The prejudice of the Southern
farmer against the draft horses
and draft bloed is responsible for
our small and inefficient farm
work-stock. Times have changea
and we must change the character
of our horses and mules. Eco
momical production means more
and larger implements and these
require heavier horses and mules.
There is no escape from it, we
fuust increase the weight of our
f;rm work-stock-——The progres
sive Farmer. ’
The pure-bred animal is ‘‘hardy”
enough when properly cared for
to withstand all the hardships,
exercise, or exposure necessary to
develop vigorous, healthy animals,
and when he is subjected to more
than this the farmer is losing
rather than gaining thereby. We
must learn to teed and care for
our livestock better, not because
the livestock will not stand more
hardships, but because his better
feeding and care will pay,—The
Progressive Farmer.
The child learns much from his
surroundings and is influenced
most by the daily life and conver
sation of his early years in the
home, *Educate a mother and
you educate a whole family:” but
if the mother be educated to look
down on farming and home-mak
ing as occupations for her children
the boys and girls will continue to
Jeave the farms,—The Progressive
Farwmer.

EARLY MOLTING OF CHICKENS
Western Poultryman Gives Excellent
Method of Controlling Hens in
Changing Feathers.
Most people believe that if they can
force their hens to molt early they
will lay more eggs during the seasen,
but this .is not true, Hens that have
molted late will lay more eggs during
the winter than the early molters.
This has been shown by the most
careful experiments, but the faects are
not generally known.
Molting hens require a large amoun?
ot feed containing mitrogen such as of
meal, meat and other feeds rich in pre
teln. Molting can be foreced by eutting
down the feed of hensg as it has been
gshown by experiments that scantily
fed hens begin molting earlier than
those on full feed, but the former do
not finish molting much earlier,
Starved hens molt more uniformly
than eothers and this is particularly
noticeable In hens two or three years
old.
In an experiment conducted by the
Cornell experiment station it was
found that oa & basis of 100 hens the
fed flock produced eggs to the value
of $20.97 more than by the starved
floek.
The tetal income from all the birds
wag $278 for the etarved flock amnd
§350 for the fed flock, a difference in
favor of metural molting for the year
of about $9B. .
A western poultryman of long ex
perience gives his method of controll
ing molting as follows:
As soon as the hens are through
laying he turns them out om alfalfa,
feeding them dry bran orly, im addi
tion. Under this treatment they get
thin. Then he feeds them a mixed
ration of grains and meat, giving a
light feed 1n the morning and all they
will eat at noon and nignht. Under
this treatment chey finish molting
quickly, get new feathers and begin
laying in September. By October 1
they are all in good laying condition
and make a profit through the fall
and winter.
PLYMOUTH ROCK IS POPULAR
Blocky Shape Makes Them Excellent
Breed for Broilers—Much Favored
as Utility Fowl.
The Barred Plymouth Rock is with
out a doubt the most popular breed
of chickens in this country—more of
them are found on the farms than
any other breed. On speeial poultry
farme the Leghcrn is a very popular
breed, and in the poultry farming
districts the Rhode Isiand Reds are
almost exclusively used, says a
writer in the Rural New Yorker. As a

are second in popularity to the Recks,
the white variety being the most pop
ular.
Their blocky shape makes them an
excellent breed for brailers. Like the
Plymouth “Rocks and Rhode Island
Reds, they lay a brown egg. The Leg
korns lay a white egg, and in this re
ipect they have a slight advantage, as
most markets prefer the white egg,
though there is no difference in the
qualities of eggs with a brown or a
twhite shell.

Kerosene is sure death to lice, if

Hens suffer from overeating as
much as from starving.
It is provoking to have henz steal
their nests this time of the year.
The feeding of enions to laying hens
has produced an onion flavor in eggs.
A hen egg-bound will be seen to

Cole’s Hot Blast Range
Your kitchen work made easy if you use &

The small amount of fuel you use in prepar- §
ing meals on Cole’s Hot Blast Range should be |
of interest to you. I]l
The Hot Blast Combustion burns the gases in ‘
soft coal. The flame from the burning gasesis -
carried to the back lids and the entir< top is thus ff_]
evenly heated instead of only the two front lids. |
It also means that the temperature of the oven
is kept at a given point without poking the fire -
or replenishing the fuel. 2
We are hearing from the users of Cole’s Hot
Blast Ranges. They say Cole’s Range does all .4
we claim for it. This affords us much satisfac
tion and we take pride in recommending this
