Undo Sam's future nnvnl program Is beginning to ussunie greater Importance than ever because of the trend of events In the Pacific. Japan has gained a dominating position In the Orient and by virtue of her exploitation of China la des tined to become n power of such pro portions and resources that she will bo able at any time to challenge the control of the Pacific. Japan Is building a great navy as rapidly as her resources permit. At present her naval strength Is esti mated tit less than half that of the United States, but she Is specializing in tho construction of fast battle cruis ers, which many naval authorities be lieve will be tho determining factors In future nnvnl warfare. Tho Japanese naval program now under way will provide 73 cruisers of all classes, conipored with 47 cruisers of ull classes In the American navy. With the Philippines unfortified at Japan's door, with the Hawaiian Islands Insufllclcntly fortified In tho middle of the Pacific and containing a preponderant Japanese population, and with Japan ncqulrlng tho Germnn nrchl pelngocs In between, many statesmen are of tho opinion that tho United States should not neglect to mnlntaln n grentor naval strength than Japan's in all types of craft as Insurance ngalnst trouble In tho Pacific. Of course such views are not entertained by those who believe that tho League of Nations Is going to banish war forever. It is noteworthy, however, that President Wilson deemed It Important to send Admiral Rodman to the Pacific with an American fleet stronger in many respects thnn Japan's present available licet. Naval officials estimate that most of tho ships authorized in the 1010 pro gram will have been completed by netft year and nil of them by the summer of 1021. This will give the United Stntcs 41 first-class dreadnnughts, 21 bat tleships of tho second class, six battle cruisers, ten scout cruisers, 400 destroy ers, and 131 submarines. North Carolina Poultry Club Member Made Remarkable Record With Small Flock of Hens. (Prepared by tho United Btntca Depart ment of Agriculture) A not return of $2 a hen over a four months' period Is tho remarkable rec- , ord of a North Carolina poultry club ; member who, about tho mldtllo of Jan j uary, mated 15 White Leghorn hens I with a standard-bred male of the sumo j variety.

Will "Gob" Also Be Put in Davy Jones' Locker? OFFICIAL Washington Is smiling over the episode of "Josephus and the Gob." Which Is to sny thnt out In San Francisco Secretary of the Navy Daniels fell afoul o the word "gob." "It is a short, ugly word, and I don't like It," said tho secretary. "It's not worthy of the men of our splendid fleet," and thereupon the honorable secretary consigned gob to the same fate which has already befallen star board, port, rum, whisky, grog and dress uniforms. But'out at tho Great Lakes naval training station near Chicago tho gobs apparently don't agree with Josephus. i From the commandant to the newest gob they agree that the nnvy, far from I fllcHIlncr "r.nli" rnrrnnlo If .t'lfli nfCnrt- tlon, respect, love, worship, veneration, delight nnd some other minor emotions, none of which are in the least like those felt by Mr. Daniels. Anywny, hero Is the reply that comes from Chicago which is tho" cause of Washington's smiles: "This 'gob is not a pretty word," tho secretary said. "It Is not only too absurd, but doesn't sound well-bred And so, to mo, It has occurred to knock it in tho head." "Aho-ee there," arose a cry from out a thousand throats. "Avast, belay, likewise stnnd by, nnd man tho second boats; At last this here Josephus guy has got tho navy goats." "ne changed our rum to liquids light" they checked some bitter sobs "He turned the 'starboard' Into 'right' nnd still we held our jobs; But now, by gosh, we quit wo fight stand fast, there WE ARB GOBS." jkk FATONiC ASTH1 ( TOR YOURACID-STOMACtO E-Z Sfove Polish AUTOMOBILES Din't fiat sound funny?

This record is by no means excep tional, as, with the coming of tho poul try club nnd with the development of enthusiasm among Its members, egg producing as well ns flock Income re turns, has greatly Increased In every section. Properly developed and fostered, poultry Is one of tho most profitable side-lines In which most farmers cud become Interested, and, at present, there Is hardly any nctlvlty of modern farming which will pny better than the maintenance and production of goot? poultry. GOOD SCALY LEG TREATMENT To Understand Scenery Now Enjoyed Emotionally THIS Is tho dny of emotional enjoyment of nntlonal park scenery. Tomorrow Is to be the day of appreciative enjoyment of national park scenery. In other words, various factors In tho national movement have united In a campaign of education of tho people so that they may double their enjoy ment by having an understanding of the scenery they now enjoy only emo tionally. A work of this scope Is a large undertaking. Nevertheless, this fact helps to lessen the undertaking. The natlonnl parks of America are not onjy the subllmest areas of natural beauty easily accessible, but are also tho completcst expression of tho his tory of the earth In Its mnking. More over nature has spread her records so that anybody with understanding may read; they are accessible to all. When tho day of the understanding of scenery comes and the American tourist views with real appreciation tho stream-made Grand Canyon abyss, the giant crater of a vanished volcano that holds Crater lake, the Yosemlte valley, glacier-dug; tho nnked granite core of the Rockies in Rocky mountain, nnd the old, old ico-enrved shales of ninny-colored Glacier, his enjoyment will be greater In proportion to his knowledge. For no man can take out from nature's beuuty more than ho puts In which is to say that wo enjoy according to our experience and capacity. Dip Affected Parts In Crude Oil or Kerosene One Submersion Is Usually Sufficient. Scaly leg Is caused by a small mite which burrows underneath the scales of tho legs, where It feeds and lays Its minute eggs. The legs bocomo st sore at times thnt fowls are unable to neratch for food or set on tho roost. Tho treatment consists of dipping the logs in crude oil. If not conven ient pure kerosene may bo used. Dip early enough so that the oil will drj before tho fowls go on tho roost, and be careful that tho oil does not get on tho fenthers. One treatment is usually sufficient, but if tho old scales have not peeled off after 30 days li should be repented. LAYERS IN GOOD CONDITION Eggs Can Be Produced in Fail and Early Winter as Easy as Spring if Hens Get Feed. If tho hens are In good condition the poultry keeper can get eggs just as well In the fall and early winter ns In spring, If they are fed exactly 12 hours apart every day In tho year, and have ample time to eat tho feed before go ing to roost. Professor Rico has the results of many practical tests made at Comejl and elsewhere to provo this statement.
