FINISH POULTRY ON THE FA2JX.
On the farm or poultry plant,
where it is produced is the logical
place to finish surplus poultry. Ai
well i-s increasing the weight, a
short period of feeding flO days to
uf ob a rr o m i vt n rn t' i ol v
grounu corn anu orau in equal pans
with white shorts or ground oats
added, will improve the quality of
the birds for sale.
Birds should be confined to a
crate and fed the above mixed to a
mortar consistency with sour milk
or buttermilk three times a day.
Such chickens are known as "milk
fed" and command a higher price.
They should be sold to a dealer who
buys on a quality basis.
Details in t lie making of a crate,
feeding, etc., may be obtained from
your County Extension Agent or the
Agricultural College. Ask for Ex
tension Circular 1414, "Finishing
Poultry on the Farm."

Ecautiful Finish of Studebaker Spec

Vehicles 70 Years Ao.
Indiananopis. June 2n !. Several
weekr; ago Earl Coo." " and bis
mechanician, Earl DuU.ni. wt
t lining up the Studebaker special out
in Los Angeies after winning a race
on the west (oast. They noticed a
snowy-haired veteran who was in
tensely inteiested.
He used to keep his eyes focused
on the tiny Studebaker. The car
seemed to have some strange fascina
tion for him. lloth Dutton and
Cooper noticed it. So one day Coop
er said to him:
"Mister, you seem to admire that
midget gas gondola. Does it look
gof.d to you?"
He laughed nnd, I swear, there
were tears in his eyes. He put his
a n d sa i d :
"Son, that car is just like a grand
son o' mine. Just like my own flesh
and blood. Why, when I was a
youth, I was helpin' to make Stude
bnkers myself."
"Yes. I was hired by Clem and J.
M. Studebaker, back in South Iiend
nearly 70 years ago, to paint the
carriages they made. We took a
bk-Sood lot of pride in fixin' up
those carriages. And now here's
this Studebaker racer. Some differ
ent from the old carriages, but &U11
a Studebaker."
Gets His Job Back
The aged man as X. M. ITcnder
shott, S'J years old, one of Los An
geles' oldest citizens. When he was
li years oh!, he was painting Stude
baker v.agns and carriages. And
paint his car, delighted him by sug
gesting that he paint it if he de
sired. The veteran set to work. He mix
ed the colors. He worked night and
day.
At the speedway here, during the
trials and the big Decoration day
classic, thousands of people saw the
sleek racing car as it whizzed around
the track. The color applied is Rob
in Egg blue, with gold trimming
a vivid, unique and eye-arresting
sight.
Xo carriage of old received more
painstaking attention. Hurling thru
space on the race courses of the
country, it carries the blessing of
an old-time master painter of Ion
ago.
STATE REGULATION
HAS POUR OBJECTS
The contention of students of the
utility situation, as it has developed
during recent years, shows that it
i3 desirable for the states to assume
a positive position with reference to
the utilities within its borders. The
best thought based on experience in
marly states is that the laws should
be arranged with the idea of ac
complishing the following four ob
jects: First That utility service is a
matter of suc h prime importance ;
to our convenience, welfare and !
progress that the public has a right 1
to provide for its complete adequacy !
and continuity.
Second That the service must be
free from political discrimination
and the influence of localities, thus
placing it on reasonable trems both
to the public and to the utility.
Third That wasteful competition
