OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
ROADS TO SOMEWHERE
A New and Interesting Series
By GRACE DARLING
(Copyig-h. 1916. International News
Service.-
of girls are looking for
the road that leads to the glittering
Palace of Success. They don't tind it.
and they wonder why. I can tell them.
It is because they don't look in the
right place. They are not willing
to begin their search in the small,
humble.' grubby spot where the path
that leads to success begins.
The beginning of the road is call
ed work. Not ladylike employment to
fill an idle hour or two when you feel
like making a slight exertion, but
hard, exhausting, nerve wearing, con
tinuous, and sustained labor. There's
nothing poetic, nor romantic, nor allur
ig about it.
And there's mighty little pay down
there at the bottom of the path.
Nevertheless, every human being, wo
man no less than man, who reaches
the place on the top of the mountain,
is compelled to travel the rough and
thorny road that leads up to the
heights where fortune and fame have
their abiding place.
Of course most girls won't believe
this. They see the woman who is
the private secretary to the head of
the firm, or the buyer who is sent
to Europe every year, or the movie
queen, or the actress with her name
in electric letters on Broadway, or the
famous novelist, or the woman who
writes front-page stories for newspa
pers and they wonder how she got
there.
They think the successful woman
had some sort of pull, or that some
miracle happened in her behalf, and
'hat she was suddenly just lucky
enoug 1 to get the position for which
they sigh.
The Truth of It
Not a bit of it. The successful wo
man invariably was the girl who was
willing to begin at the bottom, and
who did not count any work too hard
to do it if taught her a little bit more
about her trade and set her one inch
farther on the road toward the reali
zation of her ambition.
Do you suppose that any woman
ever gets to be the confidential sec
retary to the head of the firm who, •
as a stenographer, never learned how
to spell, who never learned ot turn out
neat copy, who was always blundering
and making mistakes, who chattered
to the other girls about office secrets, I
GIRLS WHO ARE DANGEROUS

particular type of girl, for. in order

But all girls are dangerous girls to
some man, and that's why men all over
the country are humming and singing
these lines from that popular song suc-

You dare me, you scare me.
And still I like you more each day.
But you are the kind that will charm.;
and then do harm—
You've got a dangerous way."
And, brothers, that's a particularly
good and appropriate song for this
season of the year. No wonder you are
having it played "by request by the

Segregating Cockerels and
Marketing Surplus Breeders
LIGHT BRAHMA BANTAMS
Light and Dark Brahma Bantams
were originated in England. They
were produced by crossing large
Brahmas with Cochin and Black
Tailed Japanese Baniams. The latter
cross showed strongly in the first of
these that were imported to America.
Some enterprising American fan
ciers selected the best of the first
specimens and recrossed them with
splendid but undersized specimens of
the large Light Brahmas. with the re
sult that they established a strain of
Light Brahma Bantams which were
in fact miniature Light Brahmas.
These are good Brahmas in shape,
feathered just heavily enough on the
shanks and have very little or no
hock feathering. In addition the
black markings are much improved
Select Specimens That Have
Every Indication of Becom
ing Strong and True to
Type
Old Fowls Should Be Culled
According to Their Per
formance and Not Because
of Age
By M. L. Chapman
Judge, Breeder and Writer
Among the problems that confront
poultrymen at ths season is "segregat
ing the cockerels and marketing the
surplus breeders." This operation of
ten taxes the skill and resourceful
ness of the operator because it is up
on this work that the success or fail
ure of the future flock and the profits
as a business venture are largely
dependent.
EGREGATING the cockerels
means more than merely sep
arating the young males from
the flock, for it involves the selection
of those birds that are to be retained
at the head of the breeding flock the
following season.
It must be remembered that the
real foundation of success in poultry
culture depends upon the strong con
stitutional vigor and vitality of the
fowls, and that the breeding male is
one-half of the future flock. The first
duty that confronts the operator
when segregating the cockerels is to
select the young birds that fulfill every
indication necessary to become typical
breeders.
Value of the Trap Nest
It is in this work that the full im
portance of trap-nesting is appreciat
ed, as it gives the operator positive
knowledge regarding the parentage of
the young bird. This knowledge also
conveys the data pertaining to the
health, vigor and vitality of the-flock's
ancestors, also the breeding charac
teristics and egg-laying records of
each specimen.
To those who are striving for show
birds the trap nest is a guide for fu
ture matings, especially regarding
shape and color. To those who want
large yields of perfect eggs, it gives
the opportunity of confining the selec
tions to birds that have ancestors with
large egg records and other egg-pro
ducing characteristics.
Where this data is at hand the
young birds should be separated into
groups according to the performances
of their ancestors, in order to srhplify
the final selections.
Only those cockerels that show de
cided masculine appearance should be
considered. They should be of mod
erate sze, possess well-spread feet,
strong legs of medium length, placed
wide apart. He should have a broad
Uat head and bright protruding eye,
that gives the appearance of alertness.
The back should be broad and long
and the body deep with a full broad,
rounded breast. Such cockerels are
easily distinguished In the flock, as
they have a natural masculine car
riage which forces them upon the no
tice of the operator. Their activity is
noticeable and their belligerent atti
tude is testimony regarding their In
dividual vigor and vitality. All others
that do not measure up to this stand
ard should be placed in small yards
and prepared for market.
Where there are a number of cock
erels that measure up to the standard
of breeders, and they have several
generations of strong producing stock
behind them, it is often possible to
dispose of them as breeders, in which
case they will bring better prices than
if prepared for market. It is essential
that the cockerels reserved for breed
ing purposes should have free range
and a full diet of nutritious food.
They should be amply protected from
inclement weather and forced to make
bone and muscle.
Marketing Surplus Cockerels
There are numerous methods of
marketing the surplus cockerels but
much depends upon the equipment
and resources of the operator. The
easiest method is to keep them pen
ned up for a few days, giving them
plenty of soft maslv, food, and keep
ing fresh clean water before them
at all times, after which they may be
shipped to market alive. Thus the
expense of killing ana dressing is re
moved.
Soft roasters are always in demand
at good market prices, but it requires
from ten to twelve weeks to get the
birds in the best possible market con
dition so as to command highest
prices. Where this method is pur
sued the birds should run on a limit
ed range. They should receive lib
eral feeding until tney develop large
bodies capable of supporting great
quantities of muscle and fat.
Where the necessary skill and
eauloment is at hand, quite a profit-
and more distinct. The only bad
feature was that they were somewhat
larger in size. This defect, however,
has been remedied during the last
seven or eight years. The winners at
our best shows are quite small, no
larger than is demanded by the Am
erican standard, which requires a
weight of from 26 to 30 ounces for
males, and 24 to 26 ounces for fe
males.
Many of these improved Brahma
Bantams have been exported to Eng
land and are the foundation of some
of the best English winners to-day.
They lay a large egg, considerng
the size of the hens, and they are also
prolific layers. The hens will become
broody, sit and rear the chicks, and
are very successful mothers.
able business may be built by market
ing surplus males as capons. This is
not a difficult matter and it is prac
ticable for small or large flocks.
Marketing surplus breeders is a
problem over which many poultrymen
have stumbled, and where, mistakes
are not discovered until it is too late.
It is wrong to think that all yearling
hens should be discarded, regardless
of their previous performances. This
is a common error that has cost many
poultrymen the loss of capital and
years of hard labor. Here again the
value of the trap nest is evident. Fe
males that have proven their worth
as breeders, either in producing show
birds or pullets that were prolific
layers, should be retained until they
are four or five years of age, provid
ing they maintain their vigor and
vitality. Despite the fact that many
breeders claim that pullets are the
more profitable, it has been con
clusively proven that the yearling,
two-year-old and even the three-year
old hens are a good investment. Be
sides being profitable as egg produc
ers, there is no doubt of their value
as breeders of strong, healthy, vig
orous chicks.
Value of Old Breeders
No poultryman should dispose of his
breeders merely on account of their
age alone until they are at least three
years old, and then only those that
have shown indications of breaking
down. No matter how small the
flock, a few thoroughly seasoned
breeders of known producing charac
teristics should be retained. The great
expense incident to poultry keeping
is the renewal of the flocks, and from
a practical business standpoint the
cost of these renewals should be kept
at a minimum.
With careful culling and marketing
only those hens that failed to measure
up to the standard as producers
should be marketed, and if this idea
is followed there will be greater profits
in the poultry industry. It is not a !
difficult matter to determine which in
dividuals have been poor producers—
those that are drones—eating their
feed and giving little or no returns.
These birds should be disposed of as
soon as possible, no matter at what
season, for the longer they are re
tained the greater the loss.
Now that the young pullets are
ready to take their places in the lay
ing flocks these, too. should be rigid
ly culled, and only those retained that
show evidence of maturing into
sturdy, vigorous hens. All dispropor- i
tionate, narrow-breasted pullets should
be prepared for market.
In getting these birds ready for j
market they should be divided ac- !
cording to their condition. Fat hens |
are ready at once, and will bring good i
prices as stewing fowls. If they are
old and in poor condition they had i
better be marketed alive at so much
per head. Pullets that are off in con
dition but healthy and growing may
be placed in yards or allowed free
range with the cockerels and fitted
for market at the same time.
Marketing conditions vary in differ
ent localities and the successful poul-
