Feed Cost of Producing Eggs Varies With Breed Careful poultrymen like to know what it costs them to produce a dozen eggs, but it is not possible for anyone to tell them. With certain information obtained through experimental feeding to start with, they must figure it out for themselves. Since the feed constitutes the principal cost, it is possible to get some idea of the real cost if the amount of grain used in making a dozen eggs is known. The United States department of agriculture has kept records that show about what amounts are used by general purpose fowls and Leghorns, and by using the local price of grain in connection with these figures the feed cost of a dozen eggs can be obtained with fair accuracy. The grain consumed to produce a dozen eggs will vary a great deal depending upon the skill of the poultryman, but it is assumed that he knows how to feed economically. The general purpose fowls and Leghorns used in this feeding work were kept on the test while pullets and yearlings. As pullets the general purpose fowls produced 130.5 eggs a year and $8.1 as yearlings. The Leghorns produced an average of 138.7 eggs as pullets and 124.9 as yearlings. The general purpose pullets ate in a year an average of 6.7 pounds of feed per dozen eggs produced, and the yearlings ate 0.6 pounds. The Leghorn pullets ate 4.8 pounds and the yearlings 5.5 pounds. The general purpose pullets ate 1.9 pounds more feed in producing a dozen eggs than the Leghorn pullets, and the difference increases very rapidly with the age of the stock, the general purpose yearlings consuming 4.1 pounds more feed per dozen eggs than the Leghorn yearlings; there the Leghorn yearlings produced eggs upon much less feed than the general purpose breeds. The value of the general purpose breeds for market, or for hatching and breeding, makes them usually the most desirable breeds for the general farmer and the back-yard poultry raiser, while the Leghorns are especially adapted for the commercial egg farms, say the poultrymen of the department.

NIPPON WILL OPEN TELEPHONE SCHOOLS That the Japanese are an inherently progressive people has been amply demonstrated by the proverbial case and rapidity with which they have adopted and assimilated occidental culture. The latest indication of this fact is the recent decision of the department of communications to establish schools for telephone operators. There are to be modelled along lines generally similar to those in the United States. It is a rather encouraging sign for the Japanese telephone system, run by the government, is at present not very satisfactory from the standpoint of either efficiency or adequacy. Maybe after some Japan's outstanding international questions become settled, more money can be diverted from the army and navy budget to supply much needed telephone equipment. DON'T DOPE YOUR STORAGE BATTERY (Contributed) In the old days, gasoline economizers were quite in style with the get-rich-quick flends. They were much more common than they are now. One could buy them in powder, tablet or liquid form and probably administer them in homeopathic or allopathic doses—for the effect was just the same. As long as the car owner was very careful to have the carbon removed from the engine cylinders, the valves ground and the carburetor adjusted, and then apply the so-called economizer to the fuel tank, he was certain to get greater mileage, per gallon of gasoline. And no wonder! The same thing applies to the present day storage battery "rejuvenators," "recharging solutions," and what not, that are being sold as mysterious compounds and wonderful discoveries which recharge service storage battery in twenty minutes. Any battery service station can do the same thing by doping a battery with strong acid—but they know the harmful effect of such treatment. The surprising thing is the willingness of many people to pay fabulous prices, three to five dollars being asked for a single application of these dopes when most storage battery service stations would do the same thing for 25 cents. There is nothing mysterious about pouring strong acid solution into a discharged battery and having it operate in twenty or thirty minutes afterward. Any service station can do that, but the normal way to recharge a battery is to pass a current of electricity through it and avoid injuring it or shortening its life. The quick way is to pay three to five dollars for about 25 cents' worth of strong acid—and then suffer the consequences. AIRPLANE POULTRY "Say," said the woman customer over the telephone, 'the next time I order a chicken don't you go sending me none of the airplane fowls." "What do you mean?" asked the butcher.

Other day a man called me and said, 'You don't know who this is talking, do you?'" "Yep. But I simply said, 'No, and I don't car,' and hung up the receiver."—Spectator, Portland, Ore. With only one-sixteenth of the world's population, the United States has two-thirds of the total number of telephones in the world. There are more than 12,600,000 telephones in the Bell system alone, 8,300,000 of which are Bell owned. Scotland now has a population of 4,882,288, which is three times what it was in 1801. There are 185,482 more Scotch women than men. HOBOING IS DANGEROUS PRACTICE, FIGURES OF S.P. SHOW "The old time hobo is disappearing," says Dan O'Connell, chief special agent for the Southern Pacific Company, in commenting on the great number of trespassers encountered by the railroads these days. O'Connell recently reported that 20,634 trespassers were put off the Southern Pacific Company's property during the month of October. He says that the number of hoboes this year is greater than during any previous period in the company's history. "The majority of those beating their way on our trains are young men," he says. "Most of them under 30 years of age and many are in their early twenties. The old timers, with their blanket rolls are found more infrequently. The new comers in this class are not so wise to the ways of hoboeing and many lives are lost in this dangerous practice." "From January 1, 1921, to October 31, 60 trespassers met their death on Southern Pacific property. Of this number 22 were killed as a result of falling under the wheels from trains, while beating their way, or were killed when attempting to board or get off moving trains. Thirty eight trespassers were killed by being struck by engines or cars. "The percentage of fatalities to injurise is much greater in the case of persons beating their way on trains, than in the case of accidents to railroad employees." says R. J. Clancy, Assistant to the General Manager and in cahrge of safety work. "The practice of stealing rides is highly dangerous and the danger is not generally appreciated. If such trespassers meet with accidents the chances are that they will be killed or maimed for life. The percentage of minor injuries in such cases is small." and then apply the so-called economizer to the fuel tank, he was certain to get greater mileage, per gallon of gasoline. And no wonder!
