Eskimo Dogs One of Best

There perl is no group of di

hardy Arctic workers, the Eskimo
dogs. They may be referred to as

Even the s chow and Samoyed

latter name through their willingness
to become drift animals in the native
countries, observes a writer in the
Detroit News,
In setting the standard for this
brede, the Eskimo Dog Club of Amer

“The real Eskimo dogs, originating

erful body and heavy coat.

Silo History
The silo has an interesting history
and its ancient origin outdates that of
the barn and crib, according to an au-
thority at the New Jersey agricultural
experiment station. It was probably
first used by the Teutons as a pit for
making that old culinary favorite,
sauerkraut. Julius Caesar adopted
the idea of storing feed for his ani-
mals during the Roman eampaigns,
and the word “silo” itself is derived
from the Latin ‘“sirus” or “silus.”
meaning cellar. The first silos close
ly followed the Latin conception. They
were mere holes in the ground lined
with straw or stone and filled with cut
fodder, principally peas, beans, lentils
clover, or cabbage. The pioneer set
tlers along the rough shores of New
England found the ground difficult to
dig and surmounted the obstacle by
building their pits above ground. So

EXPERTS AT ODDS
ON PULLETS, HENS
‘Tests Show Older Birds Are
the Best Breeders.
There is a vast variety and differ
ence of opinion as to the use of the
more mature pullets as breeders or
the use of hens for this purpose.
Ohio's experiment station seems to
have found a difference in the mortal-
ity of pullets from pullet matings and
pullets from hen matings greatly in
favor of the latter. These Ohio find-
ings of excessive mortality, running
as high as 60 per cent with pullets
from pullets, pullet breeders not se-
lected or culled, a promiscuous breed-
ing flock, would not, in the majority
of cases, agree with the practices of
poultrymen in general.
However, this test did not attempt
to prove that there are not flocks
throughout the country which have
and will produce layers from pullet-
bred pullets which layers in the first
year will show a much lower mortality
and will produce eggs in profitable
quantities.
Many poultrymen hold to the be:
lief that pullets, in perfect health and
full egg-lay are far more desirable as
breeders than hens that are run down
from heavy yields and, therefore,
more susceptible to disease. On the
other hand some poultrymen believe
that hens that have successfully passed
a year of heavy yielding are more
desirable for reproduction purposes.
Breeding pens will soon be arranged
for spring reproduction purposes and
Depreciation, Labor and
Mortality, Cost of Eggs
The three big items in the cost of
producing the $12,000,000 worth or
more of eggs that Illinois farmers sel’
every year are feed, depreciation,
which includes mortality, and labor,
according to records which twenty
poultrymen kept during the past year
in co-operation with the extension serv
Ice of the College of Agriculture, Uni
versity of Illinois.
Any flock owner who cuts down on
these items therefore will be going a
long way toward getting a wider mar
gin of net return out of the cash that
he receives for his eggs, it Is pointed
out by H. H. Alp, poultry
specialist of the college.
“Probably the opportunity to
reduce feed cost is to improve the av-
ion of each hen In

class of birds which runs up the feed

Fresh Eggs Are Best
Needless to say, eggs intended for
hatching should be set as soon as pos-
sible after they are laid. Not alone
because the new-laid egg hatches ear-
lier than the egg which kept a
couple of weeks, but because the
longer an egg is held the more evap
oration takes which subtracts
its vitality. Furthermore, in holding
eggs there Is always the danger of
unfavorable influences. For instance,
if the eggs are stored in too low a
temperature the chilling is likely to
injure them. If they are stored where
it 1s too warm, the development of
the germ is apt to start and later die.
A temperature of from 50 to 55 de-
grees has been found to be the best.
Eggs should not be held over two weeks.

Moisture in Henhouse
Moisture in the henhouse is not in
itself a bad thing, for it appears that
poultry can be as comfortable in a
damp as in a dry atmosphere, pro
vided the temperature is uniform and
comfortable for the birds. Neverthe
less, no one likes a damp poultry
house, because the temperature, under
practical conditions, usually varies con
siderably, and a low temperature with
a damp atmosphere is a poor combina
tion.—Wallaces' Farmer.
Moist Mash Treat for Hens
Hens appreciate an occasional treat
in the form of mash and it {is
probable that the judicious use of a
moist crumbly mash once a day will
moist
result in a slightly higher egg yield
than can be obtained by an entirely
dry mash system of feeding. The best
practice in the use of the moist mash
seems to be to moisten the regular
dry-mash mixture with water er milk,
giving about what the hens will clean
up In 20 minutes, Soaked or germin
ated oats may be Included with this.
Half-Pound Feed Per Egg
A hen requires about one-half pound
of feed to produce an egg, according to
New York State coMege poultrymen.
They found that hens of six breeds in
an egg-laying contest produced an av-
erage of 199.4 eggs and used 84.4
pounds of feed. The rations fed the
hens consisted of corn meal, wheat
middlings, bran, oats, alfalfa meal
dried milk, meat scraps, and a small
amount of cod liver oil and salt. When
wet mash was fed it consisted of one
part of water and fed on dry mash.

Fewer Potatoes Eaten
Potato growers are now feeding
consumers who eat a bushel less

ago. The decline in potato consump-

When the Columbia
Bridge Was Burned
(From page 1)
Conewago farmers for a considera-
tion to receive young cattle from
the farmers around here in the
spring and pasture them during the
summer and in the fall our farmers
would get them back again; but the
cattle and horses at this time were
accompanied by watchers.
We had a flock of chickens, a horse
a cow, and four hogs, (at that time
almost every householder here kept
hogs), and my father was consider-
ing taking them away, but my moth-
er said we would leave them where
they were and if the rebels took
them they would have to take them.
She feared that if the rebels came
and found no animals oh the prem-
ises they might set the buildings on
fire,
I remember the day before the
Columbia bridge burned down. I
was in the yard of our home on the
corner of Pinkerton Lane and Mar-
ietta street, in the morning, and on
account of some thing unusual in
the scene called out to my mother,
who was in the back part of the
house, Oh! look at the flitting! as a
large Conestoga covered wagon pass-
ed by, filled with furnitureand bed-
ding, and a young woman's face at
one end of the wadon viewing the
landscape; the vehicle surrounded by
horses, cattle, hogs and sheep, being
driven by men and boys Looking
back of this cavalcade I saw anoth-
er covered wagon, with the same
accompaniments, and as far as the
eye could reach the same state of
things duplicated. This continued
all day long. There were no houses
then on the south side of Marietta
strect from where we lived till you
got to the corner of Marietta and
Delta streets, and next to our place
was a 20-acre field, along the Pink-
erton Lane side of which, as evening
approached, the York and Adams
county refugees parked and prepar-
ed their supper and attended to their
live stock and spent the night there.
The following morning which was
Sunday, after breakfast, they took
up their travels once more, and as
on the previous day more “flitttings”
continued to pass our house. Toward
noon that morning some one report-

ed that soldiers were going down
Main street and in a short time we
knew that the wagon train of Mil-
roy’s army, our troops, was passing
that way, having crossed the river at
Harrisburg, keeping ahead of Lee's
army. As they passed through our
town women and girls, loaded with
hot coffee, pies, cakes and edibles,
besieged the teamsters and made
things enjoyable for them. They
continued eastward and finally reach
ed the Susquehanna river at Peach
Bottom, where they crossed the riv-
er and doubled back to Gettysburg
two days later.
That same Sunday
of Lee's advance troops reached
Wrightsville and heavy smoke told
us the covered frame bridge across
the Susquehanna river was on fire
and the Marietta turnpike was alive
with vehicles of all kinds coming
this way. Frank Allys, father of
Len Allys, was constable here at
that time and he was kept busy rid-
ing from the edge of town, where
New Haven and Marietta Sts. join,
riding toward Marietta for news and
back again with it. A large crowd
was gathered at this point. The
bridge was set on fire by Columbia
people who wanted to keep the re-
bels from crossing the river. I heard
later that some of these confederates
when the bridge set fire to Wrights-
ville houses, helped to put the fires
out. You can imagine that excite-
ment was at the boiling point at this
time, No one knew whether the re-
bels would be able to cross the riv-
er or not and many people on this
side were preparing to trek north,
same as the Adams and York county
folks, but by Monday it was known
that the confederates had returned
toward York and from there toward
Hanover ,and Gettysburg, where the
battle finally centred. I remember
well, I was in the garden with my
mother, and we could plainly hear
the guns and heavy artillery at Get-
evening some
tysburg, forty miles away as the
crow flies. Whenever there was a
particularly loud report my mother
would call my special attention to it
Then the next thing the battle was
over and wagon trains were passing
the house again in reverse order and
many people from this place going
over to the battle field to see what
could be seen. Horses and cattle
from the Conewago hills returned
again and people finished their har-
vesting work. A man from this
place contracted some disease on the
battlefield at Gettysburg and a short
time afterward was dead.
Back of Falmouth, near Bainbridge
there is a large rock formation
known as Governor's Stables. The
name dates from this time, Andrew

SUNDAY DINNER
SUGGESTIONS

ARKETING continues to be =
pleasure so long as there is &
wide choice of foods at reasonable er
low cost. This is particularly true of
fresh fruits and vegetables at this
time but also of meat, fish, eggs,
cheese and butter as well. Most
staples are still moderately priced al-
though they have felt the upward
trend of prices
Among the vegetables the cabbage
family is outstanding in quality and
price. Lettuce and celery are plenti-
ful and cheap. Green beans are not as
fine as they have been. Spinach is
plentiful.
California oranges are very attrac-
tive in quality and price. Grapefruit
continues to deserve superlatives.
Bananas are improving in quality
with no change in price. Strawberries
are plentiful and low priced.
