Let us consider tiie present tune in :H relation to our old conviction in favor of thrift. of the People of pioneer stock arc often pok'-- of a the "backbone surdon't or are 1'ion. ere. they eis thrifty and they probably country," vive. If the wood pile is used loo freely in the autumn it may not last through the winter, and the Mi, Hand child learned thrift at its grandmother's knee. Moreover, we've been taught for several generations that it isn't what a man earns that counts and takes care of him in his old age; it's what he saves. We've always believed that thrift is virtue, that spending is risky and that squandering is suicidal. We demand thrift from our government, vote against political candidates proven unthrifty, and we investigate, and often relegate to private life, officials shown to be carelessly lavish with public funds. The value of thrift, indeed, is one of our strongest convictions. No one doubts that it is a right and useful conviction or that it would be dangerous to unsettle it; but here is the United States government coming to us now, asking us to buy, buy, buy, advising us to spend our money rather than to save it, and generally appearing to set itself strongly in opposition to that old principle of tliriftine-t- s in which we were trained. There seems to be a contradiction somewhere. Moreover, the government asks us to spend at a time when we have the least to spare, at a time when the Federal government itself, as well as our State, county and city governments, are taking heavily from us in taxes and in that way lessening our power to spend. Worse still, our government, through the N.R.A., asks us to spend at a moment of great financial uncertainty in our lives, at a moment when we don't know whether we're emerging from the depression or going deeper into it, and when we aren't sure whether we're less afraid of the future than we were a year ago, or more so. The curious thing about the government's exhortation to us to spend is that the exhorters know how we feel and how we're situated; they know our old conviction in favor of thriftiness and they agree with that conviction and yet these same exhorters ask us to buy, buy, buy! What's the answer? Money is a means of trade. If you had a cord of wood and no food, and your neighbor had a cellar full of potatoes and no fuel, and if neither of you were willing to trade, he'd have raw potatoes to eat but he'd freeze to death, and you'd have heat enough perhaps, but you'd starve to death. Thrift is indeed a virtue; but this is a time of emergency during which it's necessary to buy goods so that somebody'll have money enough to pay us for what we produce. If it's hard for us to get rich by washing one another's shirts, it's certainly impossible for us to make a living by washing our own. It seems wiser to live by spending than to perish by saving. - . i in-l- ln-- . and housing the pullets may elim inate or greatly reduce the poultry man's Income throughout the entire year. There are some culls In every 'lock of young chickens and It Is a mistake to save every pullet that Is raised. Poor unthrifty pullets consume practically as much feed, require the same amount of floor space and take as much good labor as do good pullets, Hr. Frischnecht In addition, they are point out. more susceptible to disease and seldom profitable. In order to eliminate the unthrifty pullet with shallow bodies., small pelvic regions, deformed backs and crooked breasts it Is advisable to handle all the birds when they are being housed. As the undesirable ones are being eliminated it Is a good practice to count and carefully grade the birds that are kept. The lare mature laying birds should be placed In one pen. the medium birds in another and the smaller, slow developing birds In a pen by themselves. Most of the birds In the last group need a little more time to develop and gain weight, but those that have not started to lay by the time they are eight to nine months old should be disposed of. With the feed-eg- g rated as unfavorable as it Is at the present time, poultrymen cannot afford to keep pullets that are in one way or another. Ocrasslonally it Is necessary to put hens and pullets together in the same pen. This Is not objectlonal providing the pullet that are added are large, vigorous and fully matur-pWhen pullets are mixed with hens it is usually desireable to put leg bands on one group to assist in distinguishing them later on. Pullets should be allowed to come to production normally. It Is a mistake to start forcing them for production when the first few eggs are produced. Forcing will encourage the appearance of egg organ disorders such a 8lnverted oviducts, commonly referred to as "blowouts". This condition, however, may be at least due In part to a constipated condition of the birds which may be overcome by feeding Epsn salts occassionally In a damp, crumbly mash at the rate of three-fourtof a pound per hundred birds. Since pullets should be gaining in weight during the first months of product ion, it Is a good plan to mark and birds each weigh reprenentative week or two to determine whether they are growing properly. Liberal amounts of grain should be fed each aay 12 to 14 pounds of grain for each 100 birds Is usually recommended. Another part of the feed that must not be overlooked after housing Js the green, succulent feed the pullets have ben accustomed to on the d range. This green feed can be by keeping well cured alfalfa H aves before the birds in open-typ- e hoppers. Plenty of shell building materials and a good supply of fresh clean drinking water should be before the birds constantly. d. $13.00 PER GOOD MILL RUN Ton.

The great day came and silence. Not a sound was heard in all the land except the feeble cry of one old deaf man. Everyone else kept quiet so that he himself could hear the others. Thus we see that one more ancient discovery may be credited to the resourceful Chinese that of "letting George do it" the most widely used of all their gifts to civilization. Today too many of us are waiting for George to spend it. I am no prophet. I have no standing as an economist. And I am not a magician despite my claim that s thing can be mude larger by taking away a part of it. What do I mean? The best way to insure capital is to spend a part of it when prices are low. The man who spends one dollar out of ten in making business better will find the uine worth more than the ten as values rise. Mass achievement is ever a matter of individual and action. Napoleon got his army over th Alps a man at a time. We must rescale the peaks of prosperity the same way. The Now Is The Time To Buy Trail is our easiest path. Each one who can must spend and millions can spend if they but will. While we are waiting for the release of frozen funds to start a buying wave, nineteen out of every twenty dollars in 16,655 banks are free to spend as we will. $33,695,974,000 are on deposit. This is 25 per cent more money than we had in all of our banks when we went into the World War to help ssve those across the sea. Now we refuse to save ourselves. Depression will linger if we wait to spend out of income instead of ont of capital and our capital may shrink while we wait. Industry has signed with N. R. A. Some have signed until it hurts. The public should now sign with industry snd spend some of its capital. The cow without pasture can give no milk. An industry without sales can pay no wages. Feed industry. Buy something. Build something. Let us not forget this better an hour of work than a dollar for dole. either by buying Capital is going to take care of the what labor produces or by dole taxation.
