(By Edmund Vance Cooke) Thrift? Have we yet won it? Nay, have we begun it? It pops up its head and we sop it or stun it, But while we are raving, 08 salving and saving, Who of us is conscious of cutting a - craving? - We still go hotelling, And swanking and swelling, As if war were pastime and seldom compel ling ; We go restauranting, And Taunting and flaunting,. With little denied that is wanton or wanting. If you're doing the limit, keep hit- ting on wood And ask: "have I thrifted as Much as I could?" Some go profiteering, And on the high gearing They. hit the high spots with a rol- licking cheering; And day -working Dooleys, Are snuliliug patchoulis, While over the ocean they're living like coolies. Aye, aye,.there they buckle Their belts as they lcnuekle hard down to their work, white re- .lusing to truckle, And Punches and P1011015 Are starving like herds, White our self-denial still is hitting the zeros. As you pillow your conscience at bedtime tonight, Ask this : "Am I thrifting as much as I might 7" (Copyright, 1918, N,IO,A.)

The national safety, the national honor and the national well-being require that each and every Canadian shall do his duty by lending to the nation every cent he can spare for this purpose. Be ready when the call comes to see your country through in its great war work Issued by Canada's Victory Loan Committee in co-operation with the Minister of Finance of the Dominion of Canada 1019 L. r ever was a time when birds should be finished, it is now. • As a war measure the marketing of thin chickens should be prohibit- ed. The most expensive part of tate bird to produce and that which is of the least value for food is the frame. The cheapest weight for the feed fed is the flesh as it is all ed- ible, the necessity of putting this flesh on is evident. The most profitable weight at which to finish cockerels is when they w'eigh about 4 pounds, but ev- en earlier birds may be fed with profit, as several experiments con- ducted at the Experimental Farm this summer go to prove. Poultry meat of all kinds has been a good price, Hens have been sell- ing as bigit as roasters and broilers have paid well, Leghorn cockerels at the Experimental harm have been sold at about 2 pounds each, and because of being specially finished on milk, brought good returns and Paid well for extra feed. Four dif- ferent lots marketed in August, 152 birds, weighed 280 pounds, they were fed for about ten clays during which time they gainocl 60 pounds; weighing at the orad of the feeding period 39.0 pounds. They consumed 180 pounds of mash and 24 gallons of buttermilk. The mash was com- posed of 2 parts corn -meal, 1 part 'middlings and 1 part buckwheat scree fngs. 1'hc cost of feed was 1.80 lbs. -at 4e per ib, equals $7.20 and 21 gals. miler at 50 per gal. equals $t.20, tot feed and f .8.40 n makinga total o $ 1131111, Add to this the value of the birds at the start 280 lbs, of thin chickens that would bring 85o per 81. $08,00, and it malas a total cost tot thin ebiakens and feed of $116.- 1(). 110-40. The weight Of the finished Chie[cs was 310 lbs., having gained 00 lbs, in the 10 days feeding. The value per lb. was increased because of the quality of the flesh to 50c per lb. making the total value of the birds $170.00.
