Most every person values his eyesight, and would not know ingly subject it to unnecessary danger. Statistics show that a large percentage of weak eyes are un doubtedly caused by the “glare” of artificial lighting. Owing to the small area of the light giving source in a metallic filament lamp compared to the mantle of a gas lamp, the light from a gas mantle is by far the most subdued and pleasing artificial illumination.

Work your breeding stock hard when the birds should be working and producing an abundance o t fertile eggs. Then at the close of the breeding seaeon cull the flock of those which don’t stand up well un der the hard work. Put the best birds in \summer vacation\ quarters to get into condition for a n o ther hard season. Cull again berore fall hous ing and keep over only the best for breeding. This is a good season for poultry- house building and we hope that e v e r y P o s t r e a d e r w h o n e e d s a n e w poultry house will build one or more of the open-air kind. Supply plenty of fresh, succulent greens for grow ing chickens and fowls during the hot summer season. Provide ample runs, plenty of shade and an abund ance of cool drinking water. A. A. K. State Fund Dividends. The State Insurance Fund an nounces that dividends have been de dared to policyholders on the second six months' term ending June 30 aver aging about 15 per cent. This somewhat less than the average divl dend for the first six m o n ths’ term which was nearly 20 per cent., but the rate reduction of 12 per cent, which went into effect January 1 naturally resulted in a lower dividend for the second term. The net cost of insurance to State Fund policyhold era was 7 per cent, less for the sec ond term than for the first, as the greatly reduced rates for the second term more than offset the somewhat reduced dividends.

POST OFFICE BOX 75 Ju liu s K r u ttsch n itt On the Business Pond Mr. Julius K ruttschnitt when asked to give his views on the business outlook of the nation from the railroad standpoint said in part: “Business, as today organized, may be likened to a great pond, in which numberless waves are started one after another by the purchases and sales of the many individuals and companies, these waves spreading In all directions, crossing and recrossing, until their force Is spent. “Everybody appreciates what would happen if a great bowlder like the European war should suddenly be dropped into the business pond, but not everybody appreciates the effect of the slackening of activity at some important center of wave force. The effect of a reduction in the purchasing power of farmers, following a season of bad crops, is generally understood. But how about the purchasing power of the great transportation industry? With the steady march of operating expenses upon revenues, without corresponding increases in rail way charges, the railways have been driven to curtail all expenditures, and even atop entirely many customary purchases for extending and improving their facilities. The business pond is too big, and its wave activity too com plex, to say that this is the sole cause of the present quiescent state of Its surface, but it unquestionably is a cause of the greatest importance. How important this cause will appear from the amount of railway expenditures. \Take for example, the year 1913, the last for which complete figures are available. In that year the railroads spent $2,170,000,000 in expenses for operation, of which $1,373,000,000 was for wages and salaries. In addition, they spent $436,000,000 for interest, $260,000,000 for dividends, and $480,- 000,000 for new tracks, locomotives and cars, or for additions or betterm ents to property already in existence. The total expenditures for 1913 amounted, therefore, to about $3,350,000,000. “Some details of railway purchases of materials and supplies for 1913 are as follows: For fuel for locomotives, $250,000,000; for lubricants, water and other supplies for locomotives on the largest roads alone, $25,000,000; for stationery and printing, $20,000,000; for station supplies, $12,000,000; for advertising, $9,000,000; for rails, ties and other m aterials for repairing and maintaining track already built, $104,000,000. It should be noted that these statistics of actual purchase cover only what is needed to keep the railway plant in the minimum of working condition. More abundant revenues would not only result in higher and more generous maintenance, but in new con struction work in the public interest. “A question deserving thoughtful attention is: If railways should be allowed a slight increase in charges and relief from costly restrictions upon details of operation, would not the increased buying power that would be precipitated by the addition to their available revenues agitate the business pond to a desirable degree of wave activity?” _ _____ I STATIONERY & SCHOOL SUPPLIES CONFECTIONERY & ICE CREAM Anything and Everything FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN SPORTING GOODS AND FISHING TACKLE CHOICE CIGARS AND TOBACCO Morris H.
