Effect of Prizes on Small Breeders Nothing is more conducive to bcf tc r Inverting of poultry stork than the offer of prizes at the poultry shows. It makes the small breeder aspire to a higher standard of produet ion, not for the worth of the prize, but for the reeognition of men who know quality. In effort, however, it makes the breeder's product more profitable jo him, for his higher grade stork and eggs command better prices than formerly. Altogether the prize winning mania, if it may he so called, is a commend able one and has had much to do in raising the standard of American poultry.

To Insure Proper Classification Get Your “WANTS” in Early Tonight Just Lift the Receiver off the Hook HTHE Bell telephone U so simple that a child or servant * or blind person can operate it as well as you can. Just lift the receiver off the hook and a trained operator re sponds instantly, prepared to render efficient service such as only human intelligence can produce. In the dead of night you can use the Bell telephone, and even if a light is not convenient you have the assurance that the operator will respond when you lift the receiver from the hook. Recently burglars who entered a Jacksonville, Fla., store accidentally knocked the Bell telephone receiver from the hook and the intelligent operator failing to get a response, called the police and notified the owner of the store. 1 Such human service as this makes the Bell telephone an indispensable business asset and an invaluable protection for the home.

Pittsburg, (on board President Wil son'* Train). —President Wilson was returning to Washington today from Indianapolis, where he had made his first purely political speech since he assumed the presidency. Discussion was heard among the president’s friends over the meaning back of his statement that “there may come a time when the American peo ple will have to judge whether I know what I am talking about, or not.” Some of his friends insisted Mr Wilson was merely referring to the fact that future generations would Judge his actions and that he did not intend to convey the Impression which was gained by his audience that he might be a candidate again for the presidency. Others pointed out that he evidently realized, because of the cheering, the construction that had been placed on his words, and yet he did not correct the impression beyond saying, “I didn't Intend to start anything then."
