WOULD REFUND
ENTIRE U S.
BONDED DEBT
Washington D G Dec 18. Flota-
tion of a bond laeae Into which would
be refunded practically the entire
bonded iadebtednecs of the America
government was proposed to the ways
and means committee by Jules W.
Bache a New York banker as a
means of equalizing' the burden of
taxation resulting from the war.
Bonds of the new issue proposed
by Mr. Bache would run for t years.
They would hear a scale of Interest
rates starting at 6 percent for the
first five years 5 percent the sec-
ond five years 5 percent the third
period of five years and a permanent
rate of 4 U percent per annum there-
after until maturity. Mx. Bache de-
clared that such an larae would serve
to bring liberty bonds back to par
while at the same time permitting re-
tirement of 2 percent cf the outstand-
ing liberty bonds each year. He also
submitted a revenue program whici.
he declared would easily produce
$3560000000 annually. Included in
it was a sales tax of 1 percent wh!ci
he estimated would yield $2000000-
009 annually.
Continuation of the excise tax yield-
ing about Jl 00000. 000 a year and en
actment of a tariff which would pro-
duce $700000000 annual income were
embraced in the program.
As regards income tax Jar. tacne
recommended the enactment of a flat
normal rate of C percent on all In-
comes with an exemntion of $5000.
Taxes on incomes below $50M. he de-
clared were small and did not come i
from neraons from whom the govern- !
ment should seek revenue. !
EXTENDING DAYLIGHT HOURS
INCREASES EGG PRODUCTION
Artificial Daylight Gives Poultry Flock More Time for Eating
and Exercising This Starts Egg-Making Organs and
More Winter Eggs Are Produced.
DOMESTIC fowls originated in the
tropics where the days and nights
are of about equal length. As a
result of this the reproductive and
digestive systems of the hen are de-
veloped to fit the environment of a
13-hour day and a 13-hour night. For
this reason she is somewhat like an
alarm clock except that she must be
wound up about every 13 hours in-
stead of every 24. In the winter in
the north her digestive evstein
strikes at about 3 or 4 oclock in the
morning. As she Is nnable to locate
food in the dark she has no alterna-
tive but to wait until diyligrht or un-
1ng must b provided or the water-
ing trough will be frozen oer. The
birds will not do well if drink is not
available also. A small oil lamp un-
der a bucket an electric attachment
for slightly heating the water and a
watering tan r insulated somewhat
after the idea of a fireies cooker are
the methods used for keeplrg: the
water for the flock at a temperature
above freezing.

RAY McCUNTOCK LOSES
SUIT IN SAN DIEGO COURT
According to the San Diego Tribune
a jury composed of seven women and
five men gave the Robert Cordtz Sign
company a verdict for $3100 damages
found to have been committed by the
H. R. McCllntock Sign company dar-
ing the past year. The jury returned
Its judgment in department No. 1
superior court after a six-hour de-
liberation. Of this sum the McClln-
tock .people are ordered to pay $1100
for actual damages done to the Cordtz
signs and signboard locations in San
Diego and vicinity and $2000 puni-
tive and exemplary damages.
The Tribune says that dm ing the
trial the jury was presented with a
mass of evidence by both sides of the
controversy showing hot rivalry be-
tween the two companies that not in-
frequently led to physical encounters
between workmen of the two firms.

together with the right kind of feed
and plenty of exercise has been
found to increase to a marked de-
gree the number of eggs laid by pul-
lets in the fair and winter. It does
not pay to provide light for older
hens. A 14-hour day for the laying

aim of those who are following this
practice.

The fowls of these breeds are com-
monly called general purpose fowls
because they are not only good egg
producers but their carcasses are also
well suited for the table. They are
therefore the best breeds for the gen-
eral farm flocks of chickens say
poultry specialists of the United
States department of agriculture.
They are m good favor too. with the
poultry packers on account of their
table qualities.
All the American breeds lay brown-
shelled eggs. They all have yellow
skins and shanks free from feathers
which are desirable qualities for ta-
ble fowl fn this country. In sise they
are intermedite between the sshaller
eggs breeds such ss the Leghorns
and the larger meat breeds such as
the Brahma. In temperament they
are also intermediate being leas ac- j

WHAT BREED OF POULTRY
IS BEST FOR CPONIZlNGl
In selecting the breed best suited
for ra ponizing several factors mast
be taken into consideration say poul-
try specialists of tbe United States
department of agriculture. Large
capons bring the best prices. Con-
sequently the breed should be large.
It does not pay to caponlze small
fowls. Yellow legs and skin as in
other classes of poultry are most
gpular. Plymouth Rorks Light
rah mas. Cochins. Cornish Lang-
shans and Wyandottes are all rec-
ommended by different producers as
are also various crosses of these. Or
pingtons also make fin capons but
the white legs and skin are some-
what of a disadvantage in this country-

HOW MANY EGGS YOU MAY
EXPECT FROM YOUR HENS
The average do rice can reasonably
expect to get an arersge of at least
10 dozen eggs per hen & year from
his small flock in the back yard say
poultry specialists of tbe United
States department of agriculture. On
tbe basis of two hens to each mem
ber of the family this will gl.o IS
dosen eggs a year to each person
which amount is about half way be
tween tbe general average of farm
and city consumption. ISO back-yard
poultry keeper should be satisfied
with less than this. Be should cry.
however to get as much more as pos-
sible. To orovide an east a day for each
person two hens would have to lay
in eggs eaen a year this is oy no
means an Impossible average for
small flocks. It is perhaps not too
much to say that in cases where the
person attending the flock is in a
nositlon to look after the wants of
the birds three or more times a day
an average of better than is a oxen
eggs per hen can be secured if the
hens are mature and In good eondl
tion at the start and have the vl
tallty to carry them through a year
of heavy laying.
For the farm the average of 106
eggs per hen Is advised as the lowest
that should be accepted as satisfac-
tory while for the back- yard 120 is
insisted upon as the lowest average
although in general the conditions In
back yards are less ravorabM to poul-
try keeping than on farms.
