The National Poultry Shov liunj?
lip a few records in the hall of
poultry fame" which will interest
poultry fam everywhere. First was
the remarkable exhibition of pick-
ing and dressing a four nmmd
chicken in ten seconds. This' feat i
was performed by Clarence Hawkins
of Burlington, Wis., and is one of
the best educational features I have
ever seen at poultry shows. One of
the niAst common mi stakes in pick
ing ana dressingchicken? is failure
to have the water in which the bird
is scalded at the right temperature.
r Mr. Hawkins is very particular in re
'gard to this and insists .on a tern
perature of only 140 degrees. This
can be gained by adding one quart
'of cold water to every three quarts
; of boiling water. Then, no matter
hew fast you work, it will be im
possible to tear the skin of- the
;bird because the water has not been
ihot enough to cook it to even the
Slightest degree.
The second important record is
the; fact that William Halbach of
Waterfosd, Wis., received every
award in the White Rock classes,
one of the most popular varieties in
the.how room. I do not recall a
S'lJi'gte instance in a major show of
recent years where a single breeder,
lit competition with t others, won
every prize in a variety having as
great a number of entries as White
Rocks at this show.
The third record has a direct con
nection with the White House at
Washington, where the prize win
ning, turkey show will go. This

Laurel, Miss., Jan. 23. Sur
lounded by the comforts of civilization,-Albert
Parson, the "wild man
of the Leaf river bottoms," his 50-year-o1d
"wire," whom he says he
caught 23 years ago in a boar trap,
and . a 2-year-old baby girl, all of
whom strayed into Lux yesterday
like people from another aire, are
;.s much a mystery to authorities as
ever. . - ,V
Interest centers in the babe s iden

not the child ofUhc couple who, al
thought in perfect health, shows
signs scars ot primitive living ana
constant battling with nature. The
,Avoman has los an eye, which shl
declares in rambling statements wal
"scratched out by a wildcat."
The man's clothes were in tat
, ters; the wfoman wore the scanty
remnants of a dress and the baby
was naked. They had been driven
out of their "home," a shack on a
strip of land in an isolated section,
by high watqf.". Parson maintains he
- owns the land.
The" trio had lived principally on
roots, vwild .-fruits' and game, which
they trapped, but there was evidence

had .."captureU,"
Although the man's ami is sain

and not only won a silver cup for
being the best turkey in the sho.
but a gold medal as well. After re-
fusiiicr $250 fnr the hird. Mrs. Fow-
ler rcauested the show management
to wire Fresident-ele&t and ,Mrs.
Harding fnat it was her earnest de-'
sire that this bird grace the table
at the White House. '
With the show season practically
over, poultry breeders will busy
themselves with orenarations for
kthe hatching season, li you wfrfit to
hatch chicks in February, mate your
pens now. Remember, that healthy,
vigorous breeding stock is the foun
dation of a successful hatching sea
son. Vigor should be the first point
of consideration in selecting birds
for breeding purposes.
(thicks that hatch out the latter
part of February will grow well and
rapidly i properly cared- for. With
modern brooding equipment ,- and
brood coops for hens, cold weather
chick rearing is not a very difficult
task. In fact, cold weather chicks
frequently grow and thrive better
than those hatched in warm weather.
Februax. chicks make good June
roasters that sell at a good profit to
the producer. The early pullets will
lay well next fall when eggs are
high. All in all,-February chicks are
very much sought after. '
Many people prefer to buy day-old
chicks rather than hatch then). In
fact this preference has become so
general that last season hatchery
after hatchery reported their ina
bility to fill further orders. Since
then a number of hatcheries have
doubled their capacity. Indications,
however, .point to an immense de
mand for baby chicks andit is prob
able thafihey will be taxed to .the
limit, increased capacity and all. If
you intend to buy day-old chicks, it
will be good business to place your
order well in-advance if you do not
want to be disappointed by delay in
delivery. - -
Thousands of people will raise
chickens for the first time the com
ing spring. The reason for this is
plain. Poultry feed is greatly re
duced in price and eggs are higher
right now than, they were last year
at this time. There is little Tiope of
lower prices for eggs until more
poultry is produced. At present the
demand is greater than 'the supply.

Buying As Usual Here's How
ol. DAiti rocro
By PAUL
From day to day come
-
that factory in the east is reopening. The textile mills
at Fall River,- Mass., are the latest to go on full time.
This developement will affect not only cotton, planters
and mill hands, but the consuming publiq and -industry
generally. Farmers that are able to get adequate prices
for their crops and working people who receive fair
wages will furnish a market for goods of all kinds, in
addition to producing goods
People are seeing today with a clearness never" be
fore equalled that the old idea that America can not
consume all it produces is false. " Human wants are
never satisfied, and the more a nation produces, the
more will it be able to consume, if industry is properly
rewarded There has always been a great unsatisfied
demand, and to attempt to meet this would keep every
industry busy and production at a maximum. For in-,
Stance in certain schools in Omaha it has been found,
that 5 per cent of the children are under Weight from
lackof nourishment. If this condition exists widely,
it would be possible to greatly extend the consumption
of food. '
During the war; when every worker was producing
at his best, the standard of living rose and poverty de
clined. This efficiency, both on jthe Jiart of the wrk
I ers and on, that of the . employers, lessened Nafter the
crisis passed. People began to talk of a surplus, and
manufacturers became' nervous" over the lack of a for
eign market. Visions were conjured up of stagnation,
unemployment and. financial depression simply be
cause the belief was not general that home demand
could be stimulated to take care of the enormous output
.of ('America at work.
Can a nation suffer because it produces too much
goods? Must a workingman go without a new shirt
because- has produced too many? Can an employer
be ruined because he has been too efficient? . '
These thoughts' 'are called up by reading a little
book out of the OmaTia public library. It is "Profits,
Wages and Prices," by Professor David 'Friday of the
University of Michigan. rIr. Friday is not a theorist;
as proof of' that, stand his offices in New York City,
where he acts' in' a consultative and advisory capacity
to many great industries Says Mr. Fridayi
- "The laborer believes that there is only a certain
vojume of work' to be done, and that if one laborer
increases his efficiency and performs a larger share of
. the available work, there will be a smaller amount left
v for others. Consequently, labor is not as efficient as
it might be, or as it was during the war. The employer
believes that it is jmpossible to find markets in this
country for ajil the product which American industry
could bring forth. Sifted to the bottom, the attitude of
both groups involves the same fallacy. The laborer is
making work by shirking; the business man is timid in
going ahead with production, and is looking abroad for
markets rather than at home) v
"After thfi si DTlinC of the n-rmiflHno Trio enrrrrosfinn
. -0"--- -
that our gjjeat industrial
non at me wartime level was met repeatedly by busi
ness men with the brusque query, 'But where will we
find the market for them? Th& government vfill be
out of the market and , who will buy the goods? '
The waste of war seemed to them necessary if the
product was to be consumed. So long have we been
accustomed to producing at something far less than our
full capacity that both employer and employe think it
an inevitable part of our situation:.. In fact, this malign
ing of industry has come to be looked upon as a'.virtue,
and the man who suggests that it be eliminated is con
sidered little short of a suspiciousyradical, a perverter
of the God-ordained order of things. ,
"If it is a question of 100 per cent employment at
70. per cent efficiency, or of 70 per cent employment at
100 per cent efficiency, the laborer will quite certainly
choose the former. No one who has . his interest at
heart could advise him to do otherwise, if these are the
only alternative."
Mr. Friday is able to ee that what prevents the
full use of our productive powers is the risk of loss,
and that this risk.Yalls on the employer as welf as em
ploye. In tentative fashion he suggests consideration
of a new form of industrial insurance byvwhich industry
as a whole would protect each member against ruin
and guarantee him nis operating expenses. , Plants that
are idle or not used to capacity cause unemployment,
and thus diminish the demand for goods. x
With 'so' may cross currents in present-day life,
with'one sit of men preaching thrift and another set
urging people to buy as usual, this subject takes on a
deep importance. According to Mr. Friday's way of
looking at the problem, the emphasis need not be placed
' on either of these, but on production. Once production
is stimulated, and with certain avoidable- risks removed,
both thrift and consumption will take care of them
selves. ' '
