Many former 4-H boys are work
ing their way through college by
iie egg route. This is the way it
is done. At a number of the state
colleges special facilities are avail
able for such boys to carry on the
project. One of the best places to
see how this plan is working out is
at the Connecticut State College,
taining Ninety-Eight and Seven- j Here there are three special lay-

been kept going at full capacity. It
is hoped to add two more. ’ Five

employing them. Detailed records
of feed and other costs are kept by
the boys and turned into their pro
fessors. While the housing is sup
plied, the student is required to buy
his feed and other supplies outside
the college. The records of these
and the other boys preceding them
are clear proof that the plan is
successful, says A. T. Brundage,
state club leader. A sophomore
made $515.00 with 125 White Leg
horns. That was a few years back
when prices were better. - Income
these days is less, but sc are col

There is no other kind of pro
ject which lends itself quite so nice

fowls do not require a large space,
they are objectionable to few per
sons, they entail a modest invest
ment and provide a quick turnover
of capital. Students who have kept
at least 100 fowls have averaged
better than $200 profit during the

Leghorns made an average profit of
$3.17 per bird. Next year his 95 hens
produced an average of 195 eggs
and a profit of $3.50. The run of
commercial flocks is $2.25. This
boy soon became an outstanding
judge. He also went into dairy
work and won a place on the team
which went to the national dairy
show. He has won something like
$1,000 in cash prizes and has almost
as much in property.

Why White Lightning
Greater Hazard Red
Red lightning, though seldom
reported by Forest Service lookouts
as the cause of a forest fire, dif
fers in no way from white light
ning, a very common cause of fires,
says Dr. W. J. Humphreys, of the
Weather Bureau. White flashes
are a greater fire hazard than red
flashes merely because of the at
mospheric conditions responsible
for the difference in color.
In rainless air, Doctor Humphreys
points out, electric discharges owe
their light entirely to the two gases,
oxygen and nitrogen, and therefore
are white or bluish white. An
electric discharge through heavy
rain, however, may dissociate some
of the water vapor along its path
and thus produce, in addition to

Red lightning, coming through
rain, strikes only wet objects, which
of course, greatly reduces its fire
hazard. White lightning, on the
other hand, may strike dry fuel,
which is easily fired.

Blunt Nails Split Less
Soybeans For Hay
The high feeding value of soy
beans, the large tonnage grown per
acre, and its adaptation to various
soil types makes this a leading hay
plant for all sections of the state.
Analyses of l^o. 1 soybean hay run
as high as 16 per cent protein,
39.1 per cent carbohydrates, 2.8 per
cent fat. Feeding tests by various
experiment stations indicate that
soybean hay ranks with alfaifa hay
as a milk and butter producer.
Work stock may be carried through
periods of idleness o'r light work on
soybean hay alone. This hay is
very palatable to all classes of
stock. A frequent comment by
farmers is that their stock will eat
soybean hay in preference to any
other food put before the animals.
Properly harvested and used soy
bean hay is very leafy, bright green
in color with a pleasing aroma.
Average yields of soybean hay
throughout the state have far ex
ceeded the average yields of cow-
pea hay, frequently doubling or
tripling the cowpea hay yields. Au
thentic yields of 5 tons of soybean
hay per acre have been reported.
On land that will produce three-
fourths to a bale of cotton per acre,
soybeans should produce two tons
of hay under fair conditions. It
can confidently be expected that
soybeans will produce twice as
much hay as cowpeas under the
same conditions.
Soybean hay should be cut during
the period between full bloom and
mutton” stage of the beans.
Later cuttings give a higher pro
portion of seed to stalk, but a large
part of the leaves will be lost, for
the leaves shed as the pods mature.
Curing methods should follow
those practiced in curing cowpea
hay. Soybean hay, however, re
quires less time for curing as the
plants dry out more quickly than
cowpeas.
The best varieties for hay are the
Otoctan and the Laredo, as they are
very leafy and fine-stemmed. •
Yields of Laredo hay from early
plantings nearly equal those of
Otcotan. The Otootan exceeds the
Laredo in yields from plantings
made later than the last of May.
Laredo hay is ready for cutting in
September. Otootan hay is ma
ture about one month later, thus
giving the Otootan the advantage
of a longer growing season. Date
of planting does not materially af
fect the date of maturity with any
of the varieties of soybeans. Yields
of Biloxi hay compare favorably
with yields of Otootan hay in ton
nage but the quality is not as good.
The Biloxi produces a rather
coarse-stemmed hay and there is
more waste in feeding. Mammoth
Yellow hay is also rather coarse
and yields do not average as high
as the Otootan, Laredo or Biloxi
yields.
Broadcast planting for hay is
not generally recommended. More
uniform success and better yields
are obtained by planting in rows as
close together as can be readily
cultivated.

U. S. ARMY BEAT US!
GERMAN CHIEFS SAY
Generals Laud Doughboys
as “Brave and Reckless.”
Berlin.—The former heirs to the
thrones of Germany, her generals and
those enlisted men who apposed
American troops in the world war are
unanimous in their apraisal of the
American soldier—"a man of superb
courage and recklessness.” Some add
that he often lacked sufficient military
training, for which America’s heavy
losses must be blamed, but they are
practically agreed in their conviction
that it was the American doughboy
with his superior equipment who won
the war for the allies, writes Sigrid
Schultz in the Chicago Tribune.
Some of Germany’s most famous
generals, who stood opposite American
troops, have been interviewed. Former
Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria
was “the real scrapper” among Ger
man princes. He shares the opinion
of former Crown Prince Friedrich Wil
helm of Prussia and Germany.
“U. S. Troops Beat Us.”
“As the war progressed I was per
manently worried by the thought that
the United States might possibly enter
the \var on the side of our enemies,”
Rupprecht said. “American support to
the allies, war material at the begin
ning and troops at the latter part of
the struggle brought about our defeat.
The American forces opposing us con
sisted of young, strong men trained in
sports.”
Another, Gen, Hans von Sseeckt, for
mer chief of staff of the Mackensen
army, is also convinced that America
did considerable to help win teh war.
General von Seeckt, commander-in
chief of the reichswehr for six years
after the conflict and mentioned as
Presidential candidate next spring,
said :
••Jn the World war America created,
in a relatively short time, a well-
equipped army, inspired by a great
spirit of attack. The fresii American
troops, thrown into line at a front,
weakened by years of fighting, decided
the fate of the war. The heavy losses
suffered by the American troops were
due to their great spirit of attack and
their lack of war experience. As far
as the American forces were able to
work Independently. American general
ship was quite up to the mark.”
Stresses Lack of Training.
General von Fin cm, former com
mander of tiie* Third German army,
stressed the lack of training which
handicapped the American soldier com
pared to men who had fought.for three
and one-half years. IBs troops fought
American troops between Aisne and
Meuse.
"If the war hud lasted longer the
Americans would have become real
soldiers, and very good ones at that.’*
he said. “Compared to our old vet
erans, the Americans were mere bear
ers of arms. What the Americans
lacked In war experience they made
up by great pluck and devotion to
their cause.”
“The Americans were great fellows,
tremendously plucky—but real chil
dren in battle,” said Gen. Wilhelm
Heye, former commander In chief of
the reichswehr.
“I saw the American infantry ad
vancing near Dun s Moselle. Shoulder
to shoulder, wave upon wave, a sea
of khaki! One wave was mowed down,
and a second, third, fourth successive
ly rushed onward over the bodies of
their comrades. Ruthlessly, regardless
of losses, the attack was carried for
ward. The moral effect of the Ameri
can onslaught on our depleted and ;
spent troops was tremendous.”
“Defiant of death, the American
troops did their duty,” said Count von
der Schulenburg, the former crown
prince’s chief of staff. >
Wheat Buy* Tonsorial
Attention in Illinois
Marion, III.—Three bushels of wheat
paid for a haircut, shampoo and shave
for Grant Cruse at a barber shop re
cently. The wheat was then traded by
Ed Durham, the barber, for some
chickens and everybody was satisfied
with the unique three-way deal. Dur
ham has announced he is ready to give
tonsorial relief to all persons having
an excess amount of wheat along with
an excess growth of hair or beard.

stock, and barrel, by a forest fire.
The teacher demanded her salary.
But there were not only no Quartz
burg pupils, but no Quartzburg.
The Idaho attorney general is trying
to find an answer.
Flying Speed of Wild
Ducks Found to Vary
Amherst. Mass.—The flying speed of
different types of wild ducks varies
as much as 32 miles an hour, Massa
chusetts State college scientists have
discovered. Though wild ducks ordi
