No thinking man would any that
Americans are not, as a whole, kind
! hearted, indulgent, smypathetic, and
generous hearted. With prison con-
ditions being brought into the lime-
light as they hae been by the Florida
affairs,^he would be brave who would
deny that we are also ostrich-like; we
shut out eyes to what is unpleasant
an deny that it existe.
Prisons are encessary; society has a
right to protect itself against those
who break laws, which all must
obey if all are to be safe and happy.
But flogging prisons, prisons where
cruelty is prcticed, prison positions
which are political rewards for de-
serving party workers, prisons which
make unwise but not bad men into
criminals, whch make criminals worse
which deform mind and body, are
not necessary.
When they exist, the fault is not, half mile, and two mile tests, two of
iprmarily, with those who keep and
manage them. They are certainly not
the fault of those society sends to in-
habit them. They can truly be blam-
ed upon none but those who permit
them; upon the eletrorate, which
shuts its eyes to man’s inhumani-
ty to man.
Christian people agree to live by
the Golden Rule. Christian people
quote Christ and believe that “Inas-
much ye have done it unto one
of the least of these my bretheren,
i have also done it unto me.” Peo-
ple of other faith than Christian
who are members of this body politic
have epaully strong and merciful
words of their prophets by which
to live, and act, and be their brothers

great poultry county. I
formulas used by Miss Murray in the ’
care and management of her fowls
were as follows:
Whitewash, to be used inside 'care
and outside brood coops, houses, etc.,
One gallon of lime, 20 gallons of |
water, 2 quarts crude carbolic acid, |
one pound salt. No. 2: Home Brew'
Emulsion for the removal of mites,
fleas, etc. Dissolve 2 pounds of laun-
dry soap in one gallon of boiling
water. Add on gallon crude carbolic
acid and mix thoroughly with two.
gallons of kerosene. Applied to houses
and cops, one part emulsion and
seven parts water, using pump spray
once a week. No. 3: To remove lice,
ten to twelve pinches of sodium
flouride applied in the feathers on the
body of the hen will prevent or re-
move any kind cf lice. Two per
cent solution of permanagate of pot-
ash in the drinking water is a good
disinfectant.
An abundance of oyster shells
should be before the hen at all
times. Atfer the above program was
finished the club members and poul-
trymen were invited to the Chamber
of Commerce Building where a very
refreshing and wholesome dinner was
served cafeteria style by the Bowie
Chamber of Commerce. While the
club member were enjoying the plate '
dinner some very interesting short1
talks were given by Mrs. Wright, |
Miss Murray, Mr. Oats, Reynolds,
Fester, Umberson, and L. C. Old-
ham.
After dinned the crowd was shown
through Mr. Johnson’s poultry plant,
where they learned valuable lessons
in the care and management of ■
fowls, to say the least, the day was .
a valuable one for the making of'
Montague County one of the leading
poultry counties of the State.

County sent
Montague and Illinois
the largest delegations.
to the Montague Couny visiors, there
was a large delegation from Collin
County, consisting of members of
the McKinney Chamber of Commerce.
The program began at 10:00 o’clock
in the Theatre Building. The first
speaker was Mr. Walter Golden, rep-
resenting the Bowie Chamber of
Commerce. Mr. Golden spoke very
favorably of the boys and girls club
work and promised strong c-oper-
■tion from the Chamber of Commerce
in making clug work profitable and
successful for Montague County.
The next speaker was Mr. Over-
street, vicep resident of the First
State Bank, who offered a very in-
teresting talk and encouragement to
the club boys and girls of today who
will become the leading men and wo-
men of Montague County in the
future.
The club member and poultrymen
listened to some very interesting re-
marks from Bro. Miller, secretary of
the Bowie Chamber of Commerce,
who discussed the necessity of study-
ing the different enterprises and not
to graduate ourselves to soon.
One of the most interesting feat-1
ures of the program was a compari-
son of how we care and manage our
poultry as compared to the method
used in California by Mr. M. B.
Oats, Agricultural Agent for the
Fort Worth and Denver railroad. Mr.
Oats psoke to the cub members and
poultrmeny on why eggs in California
are worth more on the market than
eggs from Texas. Look’s like they
are picking on us, doesn’t it. But, of
course, that is not ttie fact. Is the
the fault then with the Texas Hen.
Hardly. Eevery egg a hen lays is a
fresh egg. The situation can’t be
blamed on the hen. Neither can it
be caused by our distance from the
market, for California is much fur-
ther from the New York market than
we are, and yet she gets 14c more
on the dozen for her eggs than we
do. Year after year, thoe people in
the egg buying centers have opened ,
up Texas eggs and year after year |
they have found them the same way
—always poor. Our eggs are all
colors, all sizes, nil ages, with every I
condition of care nnd the interior of '
the gegs is worse than the shell.
There are some hut are plain rotten. (
There rae pale yellow yolks, due to ■
the lack of green food. There are'
reddish yellow yolks due to the hen 1
eating barn-yard filth. The fault is '
all ours. We permit the hen to eat j
wha they will to lay eggs where,
the will in nests unproteced from :
the rain and the sun. We gather
•ur eggs once a week and call them j
fresh. We market fertile eggs in ;
the summer when the heat is enough
to start embroyonic growth in twelve
hours.
