vears of age and one of the most act-
ive men in this vicinity. He has also
been kept very busy the past week
improving one of his cottages at Ide-
town.
Birthday Party
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Preston of
Main street entertained recently in
honor of their daughter Emily's thir-
teenth birthday anniversary. The par-
ty was held on the lawn, with the
tables being decorated with pink,
white, green and yellow streamers.
Games were played and prizes were
awarded to Ruth Schwartz
wood Williams. Music was furnish-
ed by the Jazz Pirates. Luncheon was
served to the following: Shermie Kun»
kle, Warren Reed, Dick Suttle, John
Morris, Billy Hoffmann, John and Ea-
and El-|
son, save them for Louie Button, for
he is in the cider making business at
the present time and could make good
use of them. -
We notice in our travels that Clyde
Breckenridge is giving his home a new
coat of paint, and that John Eck is
having an awful time in keeping his
car in the garage since the boys have
bought a new flivver, so John is re-
building his garage at present. ‘Sam
Anthony was busy reading after get-
ting home from the ball game. We
wonder if Sam has joined the Snake
Eaters club?
On Sunday we journeyed up to Dal-
las, where we witnessed two very good
games of ball, even though the Dallas
boys did lose two games. The Inde-
pendents were short the services of
several regulars and had to use Wy-
oming League players. Tom Reese,
the “Old Reliable,” played in right,
and came through with a nice triples
but was unable to score. In the see
ond game with 'Ashley, Tommy was
in a fog. Maybe the party the night
‘before had something to do with it,
eh, what, Tommy? {
Mrs. Fred Kunkle should be church~
ed, as an Independent correspondent
told a local resident once, for playing
baseball on Sunday, but Mrs. Kunkle
was not playing baseball at Dallas.
She was soliciting subscriptions for
the Post, among the fans present.
Three girls in beach pajamas, made
their appearance noticeable on the
ball field on Sunday. 3
The“ Chocolate Kid” was also among
those missing on the ball field but
was present in the grand stand.
' Dallas played the best game we
have seen it play this season. At no
players laying down. The “Irish Bat-
tery” worked to perfection.
“Billy Thomas” made his appearance
on the ball field in uniform.
Ira Cooke had his hands full keep-
ing the crowd off the first base line.
Dave Lewis chawed a whole pack
of tobacco while witnessing the game.
Tim LaBarr was busy handing out
the soft drinks and candy bars. The
“Big Sap” (bars) that Tim handles
sure are saps says “Baldy” Morris.
Sorber hit a homerun, sending the
ball into farmer Weiss’ barley patch,
‘which the Ashley boys were calling
potatoes.
They say that a person must eat a
half peck of dirt before he dies. Ir
that is true, more than one person ate
more than his share at the ball game
Sunday.

Seen and Heard
i By Will Wimble
Well folks, here we ara back on the
old job again after having enjoyed a
vacation for the past two weeks. The
old typewriter is pretty well covered
with dust, but we'll try our best to get
aut the column for this week's issue.
Ws noticed on our arrival back
home on Sunday morning that Sher~
man Wardan was busy swatting flies
.on his front porch about 7:30 A. M.
But he hasn’t got a thing on Phil
Cameron of Noxen when it comes to
swatting the fly. Phil, you know, is
having an endurance contest all his
own. Up until this writing Phil haa
not taken his hammock down from
under the ‘ree beside his home for 19
days, due tb the fact that we haven't
had rain for that length of time.
While in the hammock, Phil is kept
busy swatting flies. Phil also has =z
hen that he has trained to come and
sit on his lap and take a nap along
with him. Phil says that all he
needs to do is to get in the hammock
and the chicken is right after him
and that is when! hy” gets busy with
the fly swatter, for all the fiies that
are swatted the hen finishes.

H ens Produce
One Tenth of
Farm Income
Poultry Is Raised On 86 Per Cent of
Farms of U. S.—Eggs Surpass
Poultry Meat In Value.
"As in almost everything else, the
United States leads the world in poul-
try and egg production. :
Poultry are raised everywhere in
the world. Everybody eats eggs. But
one third of all the world’s domestic
poultry are in this country. We have
five hens to every human being which
is a very much higher proportion than
is to be found anywhere else.
This is one branch of agriculture
that is not confined to farms. As
everybody knows, residents of villages
and of the suburbs of cities are as fre-
quently as not found keeping “back-
yard” flocks of poultry. Something
more than half a million backyard
flocks are estimated by the Federal
Department of Agriculture, which has
computed the total number of farm
flocks at 5% million, or a total ef
about 6,000,000 in all.
Poultry is raised on more than 86
per cent of the farms of the country.
About 85 per cent. of the fowls are
raised on general farms in flocks of
50 to 400 hens, principally in the grain
producing north central states.
The number of chickens on farms in
1929 was about 442,000,000, with a val-
ue of $403,000,000. The income from
chickens and eggs amounted to about
10 per cent of all farm income in 1928,
being estimated at $717,000,000 for
eggs and $458,000,000 for chickens or a
total of $1,175,000,000 out of a total
income of $11,827,000,000 from farm
production. Poultry products were
exceeded in value in 1928 by only four
other farm products—corn, milk, cot-
ton and swine. Over 2,500,000,000
dozen eggs and more than 500,000,000
chicks are produced annually.
The poultry industry of the United
States represents on the one hand a
widely distributed enterprise supple-
mental to general farming, and on the
other hand a high degree of speciali-
zation in commercial plants. In pro-
ducing sections near the larger cities
on the Atlantic seaboard and in the
Pacific coast states of California, Ore-
gon and Washington, there are areas
in which commercial poultry produc-
tion predominates. In other localit-
ies, the keeping of poultry for breed-
ing stock and for the production of
eggs for hatching is important, the
baby chicks being sold to those who
keep both large and small flocks for
commercialized egg production.
Throughout = the farm-production|
areas as well as in the commercial |
poultry districts are many high spec-|
ialized egg-pacing plaats, poultry-
feeding and slaughtering plants, poul-
try canning plants, and egg-breaking|
plants, while cold-storage warehouses
are devoted to an important extent to
the storing of poultry products.
Although the industry is ‘made up
primarily of producers and handlers
of chickens and chickens eggs, the
turkey, duck and goose production is
also important. Few products are as
widely distributed and consumed as
poultry, meat and eggs. » c
The poultry industry has developed
from a small beginning when the first
settlers brought fowls to North Am-
erica, and the production of poultry
for meat and eggs has been an im-
portant source of food supply for the
cities for over 100 years. The com-
mercial development of plants devot-
ed to poultry raising alone began
about 1870, and thereafter increased
attention was given to breeding, feed-
ing, and management. In about
1873 standards were developed, and in
1874 the first standard of perfection
was printed. Beginning about the
vear 1890, hatching in incubators on
a large scale developed, and in 1916
the International Baby Chick. Associa-
tion was organized.
In the early history of the poultry
industry the egg market offered the
main stimulus to better methods. In
this land of abundant meat supplies,
eggs were more of a luxury than
poultry. Until the development of
cold storage, marketing was limited by
the lack of means of preservation.
Eggs were often preserved by immer-
sion in limewater and were sometimes
preserved in ice houses. As facilities
became available, cold storage came
into more general use as a means of
preserving the surplus production of
the Spring months for consumption in
Summer and Fall. The introduction
of the 80-dozen egg case to displace
the barrel as a package for eggs,
which occurred about 1880, was a
considerable economy. The produc-
tion of dressed poultry for market
was greatly stimulated by the use o
refrigeration for {fransportation and
storage,
Poultry raising oceuiples an import:
ant place in the organization of North
American farms. Not oiily is péiiitry
raiséd on about 90 per cent 6f thé
farms, but. on many farms poultsy
products are one of the best) paying
products.
The value of eggs represents about
57 per cent and the value of poultry
meat about 43 per cent of the total
value of all poultry products. Chickens
contribute about 95 per cent of the
value of all poultry products and are
the only class of poultry raised ex-
tensively for the production of eggs,
all other classes being raised primar-
ily for the production of meat.

Bread Is Best
Single Food
But U. S. Public Health Service Ex-
Bread Alone.
(By Caleb Johnson)
That “bread is the staff of life,” is
an old saying familiar to everybody.
It was a wise man, whose name 1
have been unable to find, who added,
“but bread and butter is a gold-head-
1’ cane.”
For the experiments in diet conduct-
ed by the United States Public Health
Service, while they indicate that the
nearest approach to a perfect food is
whole wheat bread, fully bear out the
truth which is set forth in the Bible,
in both the Old Testament and the
New, that “man cannot live by bread
alone.”
There is no single perfect food,
though there are so-called “dieticians”
and food experts who claim that all
bodily needs can be satisfied by a
single substance. If that were so,
and we could find that substance, what
a care-free world this would be! No
more worry about choosing our 'meals,
only one thing to grow to feed every-
body—it would be marvelous. But that
at Washington .say whose business it
is to keep their finger on the Nation's
pulse.
There are only a few substances
which contain the proportions of pro-
tein and the fuel foods necessary for
human needs.
If, for instance, you eat enough beef
to satisfy the
coke State hospital, where he is suf-|
recently | necessary protein whereas

protein needs of the
body and eat nothing else, you will
have an insufficient supply of fuel. Ir
you eat enough beef to supply the
fuel needs of the body you will take
in too much protein. On the other

sufficient energy but
there would be a shortage of protein.
Baked potatoes, onions, corn, almonds
and bread approach a balanced diet,
but even these fall far short. Potatoes
and corn alone would have to be con-
sumed in large quantities to meet the
Schock, Mrs. Beahm, Mrs. Ed. Miner, | needs.-
Taken by itself, ‘good bread, made
of whole grain, comes the nearest,
perhaps, of all food articles to furn-
I ishing a balanced food diet of satis-
| factory bulk. With bread is included
a variety of flour preparations such
as macaroni, = biscuits, Vienna rolls,
and crackers, but to try to live on
these alone would be manifestly ab-
surd. E
If we cannot live on bread alone,
certainly we shall not be able to fina
any other one substance that will meet
the dietary requirements of the day.
It is necessary to combine high pro-
tein foods with low protein foods in
such proportions as will furnish bulk,
the proper nutritive ratio, «and will,
at the same time, suit the taste. Pro-
tein foods are, as you know, mostly of
animal origin and foods low in pro-
tein value are mostly of . vegetable
jorisin, A balanced ratio, selected to
meet all three requirements, bulk, pro-
tein ration, and taste, is likely, there-
fore, to contain materials of both an-
imal and vegetable origin. At any
rate it is only by means of a mixed
| diet that we are able to maintain a
satisfactory ration. For infants milk
is, of course, a complete food, espec
ially ‘mother’s milk—but as the child
develops this even does not suffice.
A large part of the malnutrition in
j children is due to the lack of a bal-
{anced diet. = People who are unac~
| quainted with the importance of a bal-
l>nced diet often purchase food en-
tirely on the basis of appetite or the
temptations of market. Also there
are those who are so poor as to be
unable to buy anything but the cheap-
est articles to be obtained, and such
persons often suffer from malnutri-
tion. 4
In the case- of school children the
indulgence of the appetite is an exces-
sive amount of sweets and the con-
sequent throwing of the diet out of
balance has been found to be one of
most frequent causes of malnu-
trition. The resort to cheap foods
may lead to malnutrition through an
| excessive amount of starches. Starchy
| foods are usually the cheapest foods
[that can be purchased, and while good
| foods, should not be used to excess.
| There are two serious objections to
| the excessive use of meat. The first
| objection is concerned with the chem-
ical side. There are substances pro-
| duced in the digestion of meat which
isn’t the way Nature works, the men | may prove injurious to the cells of]
[the body, particularly "if too much is
eaten. Some individuals are able to
throw off these substances more eas-
ily and as a result’ do not suffer. Oth-
er people, however, accumulate these
| products in the body until they result
in injury.
With the excessive use of 'meat a
|
cess of protein. This is a dan
which should not be minimized
cause any excess of proteins, unle
burned up by physical exercise, m:
be thrown off from the body by th
action of the liver and kidneys e
cause the body has no way of storin:
up a surplus of proteins. If we tak
too much fat or carbohydrates we ar
usually able to convert some carb
hydrates into ‘fat. This is deposit
in cells under the skin, and likewi
should be gotten rid of by proper
its of exercise. x ba
Most of us of sedentary habits could
probably get along with much: less
meat than we use and most of us
would probably benefit
0
! be said that the proteins a
which are contained in meats are ap-
parently ‘more easily digested a
more easily absorbed than are pr
teins contained in vegetables. :
: There is an old superstition tha
'as gained much general credence.
You probably have heard it said tha
“every part feeds a part,” that is th
certain foods should be eaten for the 3
benefit of special parts of the bod
Some peoplé believe that beef sh
be eaten to develop the muscles,
should be eaten to preserve the
fish should be eaten for brain foc
and celery for nerve food. If you
stop to consider that in the process
digestion all carbohydrates are ch
ed to simple sugars, all fats to si
soaps and glycerines, and all protein
to simple nitrogenous compounds yo
will see how absurd it is to claim
special value for one kind of food
connection with the building up
any special part of the tissue. =
- All products of protein, fat and
bohydrates after digestion are distr
uted in great measure, without di
crimination by the blood, and the cell
of the body draw their supply ¢
nourishment from this general store..
Another fact should not be los
sight of. Ordinary food materials
contain an abundance of salts in their
natural condition and it is rare to : z
a person suffering from lack of min«
erals in the diet. With the develo;
ment of manufacturing processes, ho
ever, and the overrefinement of cer-
tain foods which are prepared for the
market, some lime, much of the phos«
phorus, and other of the mineral sub
stances are frequently lost. The a
vice holds that the nearer you can
secure your foods in nature’s origin.
al packages the less you need to con~
cern yourselves with your ghis
minerals for the day. i
It should be borne in mind that the
digestive system is subject to individ-
but that there ar
some foods that are more easily “di
gested than others. Milk contains fats,
carbohydrates, proteins, and salts in a
very easily digested form. Milk pro-
teins "and fats of all kinds are di-
gested with relative ease but the pros
tein and fats of meat are inclosed
within cell walls. The material of
which these cell walls are composed
is not so easily digested. In cooking
much of this material is broken up
but here again the manner of cooking 2
has an influence upon digestion. :
