Poisonous Drug Plants
Many drug plants are poisonous,
and inexperienced growers run a
risk in handling them. Since the
plants must be grown in quantity to
make them profitable, raising them
in the small home garden is not
feasible. Another factor to be taken
into consideration is the difficulty of
harvesting and preparing many of
these plants for market so that they
can be sold at a profit.

‘‘All right, Bessie,” said the boss
of the little factory which was mak-
ing jackets -for soldiers. ‘‘Did you
want to see me about something?”
The thin middle-aged woman stood
up from the chair in the outer of-
fice and looked earnestly at the boss
with her*huge, grave gray eyes.
‘‘It’s about this ten percent
pledge,” she began.
“Oh, that’s all right, Bessie,” the
boss said. “I’d been meaning to
speak to you about that. We don’t
expect you to
_ pledge ten per-
cent of your pay
for War Bonds
like the others are
r / doing. We know
you have a hard
time making ends
meet since Jake
r( died. Eleven kids,
isn’t it? That’s
quite a lot of mouths to feed. Let’s
see, you make $25.50 a week includ-
ing overtime, don’t you?”
“Yes, sir, but . . .”
The boss smiled.
“Don’t give it another thought,
Bessie. You’ve got your hands full
now. Uncle Sam knows you haven’t
got a penny to spare. Don’t let it
worry you. We understand.”
The boss turned to go back into
his private office.
“But what I wanted to say was
...” Bessie raised her voice and
the boss looked around. “I wanted
to say, would a dollar a week be too
little? You see, after we get the
living expenses paid, there’s just
about a dollar a week left. Would
they be willing to accept a dollar
a week?”
“They’d be more than willing,”
the boss said quietly. “They’d be
proud.”
Bessie looked relieved. /
“All we have to do is scrimp a
little,” she said. “I’d feel just ter-
rible if we couldn’t give something.’
Back in the boss’ office a repre-
sentative of the Treasury Depart-
ment was waiting. The boss shut
the door and sat down.
“I’ve just seen the greatest single
sacrifice I know of,” the boss said.
“Listen, if you want to hear what
American women are fhade of . . .”

the files of the Treasury Depart-
ment.)

Feed Pullets Mash
After pullets on range are 10 or 12
weeks old, they should be fed a mash
designed primarily for laying birds,
supplemented with all the grain they
desire to eat. This recommenda-
tion is reported by Prof. C. S. Platt,
associate poultry husbandman, who
says that 30 per cent of such, a mash i
and 70 per cent grain is the most
economical proportion of feed for
growing pullets.
