McHenry 258 McHenry, HI tfbe main cause of profit or IpM on commercial poultry farms in the East is the relation^ between "the price of eggs and the price of feed, says E. G. Mlsner of the New York Stute College of Agriculture.' He*points out that the wholesale price of grains which go into the poultry ration has recently aver-*' aged 74 per cent of the pre-war price, While the price of the highest grade of eggs in New York state has averaged 103 per cent. He says that this is the reverse, of; last winter and spring,, when feed was above pre-war price and eggs ws-re only four-fifths of it. La Other words, the egg-price ratio Is now more favorable to the grower than at any recent time: Among other factors which make for profits, the first need is blgh egg production from each hen ; to show profit birds must produce considerably more than 120 eggs a year. On 124 commercial farms lu New York In 1930. the average number of ejrgs was 144 for each bird, and only one-fourth of the farms produced more than 160.eggs a bird. These farms made four times as much as those with a production of less than 130 eggs. v ~ Yet high egg production, adds Professor Misner. is not enough; a large number of layers is necessary so^that the total income"will be big enough to pay the interest on the capital Invested' and to return good wages to the operator. Two thousand laying hens or more, are needed to produce a1 labor income of more than $100 a month. With less than this number of birds on a commercial plan, the flock does not.afford full-time employment for a poultrymnn; Most Glorious of Professions ... . , 88 ' By FANNIE HURST (9 by McCIure Newspaper JSyndtCAt*.)

Pullets do lay more eggs than year old ^ens and in better §eason. But it costs money to buy or raise them. If a bird in her pullet year produces 291 eggs and in tier second year 2lS it is clear that she is of the sort that should not be summarily dealt with after one year's production. It would pay to keep her for e^rg production alone and ,of considerably more importance to retain her for breeding purposes. The hen referred to is a Barred Rock on the Agassiz farm. She and 15 other Barred Hocks under test produced an average of 187 eggs in their sec- °nd year. In five years one of these hens laid 1,076 eggs, an average yearly production of 215. The development of long-distance layers offered an interesting field of work for poultry breeders and may be of considerable value to the poultry industry. --Nor*West Farmer. .

Freund & Sou CONTRACTORS AND BUILDERS ~ Phone 127-R McHenry Our experience is at Your Service in building Your Wants UT of four brothers Myron Brown alone turned his face toward intellectual pursuit, or at least, he turned his face, at the age of seventeen, toward his state's university, graduated there at twenty-one, and without any particular intent or purpose drifted into teaching. At twenty-five he was holding down the chair of English history in the university from which he had graduated. ' His three brothers, thrown on their own resources at early age as he had been, drifted, the two younger ones, and the third his twin, into business pursuits that were ultimately to cast them all Into the destiny of big affairs. Harold and Steve, this younger boys, struck it well In the radio Industry while the vast industry was stlli in its infancy, Bartlett, Myron's twin,, was reputed at twenty-five te be, worth three-quarters of. a million dollars from fortunate Investments in copper. The three brothers, successful all at an early age, were none the less prideful of Myron. He represented the Intellectual status of the family. He lent eclat and distinction. Had he permitted it, the three brothers Would, willingly and generously have aided and abetted his modest earnings as professor. That, however, was not necessary. Myron's Scale of life fitted and pleased him well. A pleasant suite In a boys' dormitory, whbre he Incidentally held the position of dean. Varied if modest summer vacations, going tourist fashion to Europe, or camping in the north of Canada with two or three of the members of the facility. Books. Good music from the second galleries of the concert halls. -Pleasant leisure. Campus quiet. Mild intellectual divertisement among the members of the teaching staff. All in all, there was little, in Myron's opinion, that his brothers could, contribute to his "wellbeing. Then, too, there was this difference. The business boys had all married. There were three attractive and personable sisters-in-law, and five or six neices and nephews in whom Myron felt a sort of benign Impersonal pride. But the domestic aspect of the lives of his successful brothers helped to further estrange him from the walks they had4 chosen for themsefves. Christmas, New Years and birthdays, they met. And on one occasion, more for the sake of quieting their importunings than anything else, Myron had accompanied, as guest, two of his brothers and their families to Europe. There acting as guide and Interpreter to the cultural pursuits of the wives and children. But in the main, Myron remained not npcessarily aloof, for he was a gregariously Inclined fellow, but more or less secluded among his own kind and the books that as the years marched on he was accumulating about himself In a modest library. Then, one New Year which he was spending In New York where the annual gathering of his clan took place, Myron, stimulated by all the Wall Street gossip which he heard among his brothers, but which never was even intended for his ears, took what he called a flyer in a stock which he selected for the euphonious quality of Its name. He bought one thousand shares of Green Agate Copper stock for seven hundred and fifty dollars, took it home without even revealing the purchase to his brothers, who would have joked - him, locked It in a desk drawer, practically forgot It until the next annual visit with his brothers, when once more, his interest stimulated for the moment by their bear and bull talk, he remembered his flyer In Green Ajgate. Two days later, before his return to college, he sold his Green Agate, one thousand shares' for twenty thousand dollars, creating among his brothers a furore of hilarity at his acumen. The shrewdness, they called it, of a babe in the wood. It turned out to be more tfian that With that twenty thousand dollars as his cornerstone, Myron was destined for a career in high finance that was far more spectacular than the career of any one of his brothers, even of his twin, who already was reputed to be twice a millionaire. By the time Myron was thirty-five, his teaching career lay behind him as dim as a dream, and the library which he had accumulated fn his home in Briarcllff-on-Hudsoo was estimated by itself^ to be worth as much as his brother 8teve's or his brother Harold's entire holdings. It was one of those spectacular, erythlng-he - touched - turning - to - gold successes. Myron simply made money hand over fist. In copper, in steamship stock. In General Motors. In hotel stock. In coffee. In real estate. Even In books, frequently achieving a first edition at high price, and turning It over at fabulous profit. Strafe, too, apparently temperamentally Unfitted for the unclolstered, competitive race of the business world, he took to it as the proverbial duck takes to water. Business men, financiers, bankers, magnates, industrial captains found him quick, sympathetic, shrewd and eager to match his wits against theirs. He was the surprise of their lives to his three brothers. He was mors than that, he wfts apparently a surprise to himself, because more and more, as his fortune climbed and his authority in the business world became more established, Myron found himself too dazed, when he took time to contemplate, to quite realize what It all was about He was rich. He was Influential. He was in a position to gratify his whims for travel, books, erudition, music, and .cultural pursuits of any an^v®^ kinds. He was a person miles removed from the college professor, and yet at heart and soul he wns that college professor, strangely endowed with a power which seemed to be no part of him. It was not unpleasant. There was never a time when he found himself consciously hankering for the old days uf the simple suite in, the boys' dormitory where he had acted .as sort of overseer of their conduct. That was all passed now. The innocuous professor since those days had endowed the very university where he had taught English history with a library of books oh that special subject, said to be the finest in the world, and It was more than possible that similar gifts from hiaj would be forthcoming. ' N'o, as Myron grew older'and more influential and •certainly richer, it could not be said of him that be entertained regrets for those simple teaching days that were gone. Except, every time he made„a noticeable disposition of his money, it found its way into college cafgsfs. Dormitories for men. College libraries of one sort or another. Then, when he wSs fifty-eight and reputed to be wortli^ifrore than ten millions of dollars, Myron, unmarried, drew up his last will and testament It was a simple will, because it diverted all this huge fortune in one direction. Ten million' dollars as a permanent fund to help keep the male teacher in that "most glorious of professions," by ailo.wing hiin an income over and above his modest salary, and so make speculation and adventure into business as remote a possibility as might K • ...• :>•;••• Yfeld* On* Crttp Only After the banana plant has borne of fryit ly dies.

V Co-Operate With CfclW in Desirable Behavior The child of today works with, rather than for, the parent In the matter of his own training, says Dr. Margaret Wylie, chili guidance specialist from the New Yprk State college of home economics. Desirable behavior may result from other methods than the old one of demanding strict obedience. Today the parent, knowing that certain ways of behaving are necessary for health and safety, and social acceptance, tries to gain the co-operation of the child in, developing them. The parent sees that the child understands what is desired, and that the child has an opportunity for self-expression amfr independence even while the child practices the necessary habits. The old method established Obedience without the child's co-operation or desire, by a system of punishment. This resulted in undesirable behavior of a different type. The child became antagonistic, hard, and cruel; or repressed and fearful; or took refuge In evasion and dishonesty. The new method makes It possible for the child to keep his self-respect, to see and profit by his mistakes, and to gain In Independence, In self-control, and In personality. The child's first lessons in co-operation are gained through his dally routine and through his play. Regular health habits, suitable companions, recognition and Approval of desirable behavior, are some of the first ways in which the child learns what is good and what is not. Dam to Fill Prinee'a Paffft With the raising of the waters of Loch Erlcht, Scotland, by the dam of a large hydroelectric project the many caves said to have been used by Prince Charlie may be obliterated. It has also been disclosed that some of these "historic holes" are not authentic. At the southwest "corner of the lake Is "Cluny's Cave," a cluster of boulders, where Prince Charlie hid during September, 1746. In Glenmoriston is another cave where the prince was sheltered by a faithful bodyguard. Both these places are well authenticated. On the west coast, however, Is k hollow at the roadside near Kinlochmoldart, which has been called "Prince Charlie's Cave," and on the banks of the Shlel at Cliff is a similarly called cave." Neither of these has any connection with the'ill-fated prince. After Culloden fcharles never crossed LocfeShiel. Mr. and Mfrs. B. T. Butter entertained the 500 club at their home, Thursday evening.
