when war was declared and has been
fighting ever since. Carpentier is the
heavyweight champion of Europe,
working his way up to that point
through all the classes from the ban
tam. His last fistic achievement of
note was to win from Gunboat Smith
on a foul in London in the summer of
1914. When he Joined the army he was
first with the signal service and twice
had his apparatus shot away. Later
he became an automobile carrier, then
became attached to the aviation serv

Poultry Need Exercise to
Keep In Good Health
This Is no time for a lazy fowl. Any
hen that does not scratch now—after
good litter and tempting grain are pro
vided—is not worth bothering with.
She would be more profitable in the
pot, says the Farm Journal.
Exercise not only keeps down fat,
but It improves the blood and condi
tion to such an extent that if there are
any eggs in the hen she is bound to lay
them.
As the weather becomes colder the
quantity of corn, cornmeal, animal
food and other heat producing foods
should be gradually increased. Greeu
food such as cabbages, beets and oth
er roots should also be daily supplied.
A good way to feed roots is to cut
them lengthwise in half and nail them
to the side of the wall so the hens can
easily pick off pieces. Cabbages should
be suspended from the ceiling by a
cord, just high enough so the fowls
by a little effort can get at them.
There is a call now for roasting
fowls that will weigh five or six pounds
each when dressed.
The capon demand is poor at pres
ent, and it is best to hold them until
after the holidays.
