One volume Is devoted to shore birds. This classification includes the most henpecked member of the bird family, according to Dr. Arthur C. Bent of Taunton, Mass., the author. This Is the timid, dull-colored male phalarope. The female, far more brilliant in plumage and positive in will, forces ,hiro Into matrimony. Once she has deposited the egg? she leaves the hatching of them entirely up to him. He Incubates them and cares for the young while she gads about with equally Irresponsible wive*. Mr. Bent quotes one observation of an unhappy husband. A pair was seen together, the male of which "was apparently tired out." Whenever the hen stopped, as she frequently did, to primp herself or feed, be would sit down, tuck hie bill under his feathers, and go to sleep. Before he had dozed more than a minute, however, the female would peck him awake and, calling garrulously, force him to follow her while she led the way through the marsh.

"Where Your Dollar Buys Most" KNOX MOTOR SALES •Mwamw m" Enjoy Rat Slaughter London bloods of the earl; part of the Nineteenth century had no bull flghty, as did Madrid, so they substituted the rat for tbe bull and the dog for the matador. An old scrapbook tells of Billy, a celebrated ratter, performing the charming and marvelous feat of killing 100 rats in five and one-half minutes. This was his ninth match, so if his quota was tbe same each match he had a total score of 900. Sports .audiences of that time were not much different from those of today. When the rats failed to show enough aggresslvenes tbe audiences would become bored. The squeals of the tortured rats were enjoyed much in the same manner as the "thud" of s stiff blow Is enjoyed by boxing spectators of today.--Kansas City Star. Indian Name* Indian place-names. It Is pointed out, may refer to physical characteristics of the place, to Incidents in the history of the time, or to associations of a tribe with a region. Examples may be seen In Saskatchewan river (swift flowing), Battle river (place of numerous battles) and Ottawa river (river frequented by the Ottawa tribe). Another point is that Indian tribes generally had two names--the name they gave themselves and the name given them by their enemies--and In many cases tbe names which bave been used by the white man have been "enemy" names. This accounts for the very uncomplimentary names which some Indian tribes bear. Explaining "Creole" lfca "New International Encyclopedia" states that Creole Is "a name properly used In the southern United States and In Latin America to designate the pure-blooded descendants of original French, Spanish or Portu guese stock. By English writers It has sometimes been Incorrectly supposed to mean a mestizo or mulatto; but It cannot properly be applied to any person of mixed race, non-Latin stock or European birth, neither Is It used In speaking of the Canadlin French."

' ' ~ Firot Week Spread Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter on newspapfHT or cardboard for the chicks before they are put in the brooder house. The chicks walking about will rattle the paper. This will attract their attention and they will all get some. Sprinkle some fine grit on top. of the Starter : for the first week. The chicks must be fed _ when they are put in the brooder house. Otherwise, they will start to eat litter and so starve to death when they are about a week old. Do not put. any disinfectant in the drinking water. Many poultrymen who are using Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter from the very beginning, are raising nearly 100 per cent from good hatches. When the chicks are started on litter or sand without being fed, it frequently results in an uneven flock, for the litter eaters have little room or desire for feed. ^ When the first Chick Starter is given, be sure that you have provided enough trays, newspapers or cardboards for all the chicks. Otherwise, the smaller and weaker chicks will, be crowded out from getting sufficient food.!' Do not try to reduce the amount of feed that \ the chicks eat by limiting the hopper space,, for the big chicks will then get all they want . and crowd out the smaller birds. Keep Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter in front of the chicks dry just as it comes from the bag. And for the first week do not give the chicks anything else except fine limestone grit and fresh, luke-warm water. Provide clean litter, such as cut alfalfa or clover. Have the litter one inch or so thick so that the chicks keep their feet warm. If the floor is left bare, or if sand is used without straw, it is likely to be too cold or too hot. Take care that the chicks are not allowed to •chill or become overheated. If the chicks have been chilled or overheated^: before being placed in the brooder, or if they"5 come from stock that is in bad condition, or if they are improperly incubated, a number may die when they are about a week old. Chicks that die at that age usually do so be-' cause their systems have been thrown out of condition and they are unable to eat. Or their deaths may be due to the fact that they began to eat litter and, therefore, starved to death. If the brooder is small or crowded it is advisable to feed Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter on trays;, for about fifteen minutes at a time three or.v four times a day. This shpuld be continued , Until the chicks get outdoors..* Second Week In the second week continue to feed Ful-OPqp Chick Starter. It may be fed in trays o>r hoppers from then on. Provide sufficient space so that all the chicks can eat at the same time' and thus develop evenly. The Starter should'[ be fed dry. Provide all the Chick Starter they ' will eat for they cannot harm themselves by" overeating. The limestone grit can also be hopper fed. Milk may be given also if it is desired to hurry the pullets along. In the second week you also can begin to feed Ful-O-Pep Fine Chick Feed. A table- ' spoonful each morning and another tablespoon- • ful each night is the proper quantity for each , 100 chicks. Unless the litter is especially clean it is best to sprinkle the fine chick feed on the' #iick starter in the hoppers. Hopper feedi vm much wore sanitiry than letting the ••^lig in soiled litter. '* '• •. • Th* Cod Liver Meal in Ful-0«-Pep Chick Starter enables the chick to assimilate its food getter. As a result it gets moire good out 6t ttie oatmeal and other ingredients^ and growth., fa fast and certain. If you can keep your brooder house wama, fet the chicks have a chance to run back and "forth outdoors by the eighth day. Be vefy Certain that it will be easy for them to find their way back to the brooder. They soon -l&arn not to stay out too long and the air and Sunlight will help them grow. Do not fail to provide a wind break or some other form of shelter if there is a cold wind. ^ i If grass or other green range is not available, better chicks will be raised if they can 4«§e fed lawn clippings, carrots, lettuce, cabbage or turnips. „ * . Second week Critkial % The second week Is frequently ttie critical week, which determines how the chicks are to grow and do, so you must watch temperatures and ventilation very closely. If the chicks show any tendency to alackfa -Kheir appetite, feed three or four times a lay Instead of constantly. (The brooder is probably too hot.) Continued lack of appetite is jkrobably a sign of constipation. To remedy Ihis put one teaspoonful of epsom salts to each >gallon of water for a day or two. From the third to sixth week continue to feed Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter. Keep it in hoppers in front of the chicks all the time. If it is kept dry, it will always be sweet, agd there is no danger of overfeeding. » Provide a clean, bright grit at all times and plenty of fresh, clean water. Give chicks a Chance to run on a good grass range, if possible. Let them get outdoors as much as possible, always remembering that they must be protected in stormy, wet and windy weather. >Cradually increase the amount of Ful-0-P< J^ine Chick Feed that you are giving them eac ; Inorning and each night, so that at the end o: the sixth week you will be feeding about three parts by weight of Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter to two parts by weight of Fine Chick Feed. Always watch the litter or troughs. Be sure that you are not overfeeding on Fine Chick Feed. One Pound at Six Weeks It is particularly desirable to feed Ful-OPep Chick Starter until the chicks are sfac • Weeks old, because that is ordinarily the end .isf the diangar period. The Cod Liver Oil and • "Cod Liver Meal in Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter nil be found especially beneficial in preventxg leg weakness, coccidiosis, and other chick ^ilments that may otherwise cause much rouble during the first six weeks. When the 1hicks are six weeks old they should weigh bout a pound, and should have eaten a total •f one and one-half pounds of Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter and one-half pound of Ful-O- '|*ep Fine Chick Feed. Change gradually from Ful-O-Pep Chick Starter to Ful-O-Pep Growing Mash when the jhicks are seven weeks old and keep the Growg Mash in front of the chicks at all times, rovide enough hopper space so that the small ehicka will not he crowded out by the large ones.
