Guineas, old. fat, per $4. The food administrator recommends that young, undeveloped turkeys should be held for later market. Old- toms and old hens that are fat would command a price nominally of 23o to 25o and there will be no objection to sal of such fowls, but in order to comply with the wishes of the government, producers should not sell young hen turkeys before thev welsrh 8 or 9 sounds or young toms un der 12 to 15 lbs. each.

It Is the opinion of the writer that the advance in price and Increase weight will warrant producers holding these fowls until more fully developed.

SCOUTS GET BUSY. Sell Many Bonds in Drive, the Gleaning Eleven boy scout troops began their gleaning process in the liberty loan campaign yesterday, with excellent reports, as far as could be ascertained last night Three troops reporting to Scoutmaster Arthur A. Graham, who is supervisor of the cleanup campaign, had sold twenty-nine bonds, totaling $3,200. It is believed that the other organizations did equally well.

Troop 3 carried off honors with nineteen bonds subscribed, totaling $2,150. The troops are alternating in occupying the liberty bond booth at Eighth and Kansas avenue this, week. This booth serves as headquarters for the juvenile liberty bond workers, and a large flag with a board arrangement has been prepared to show progress as the boys secure subscriptions. The motto, "Help Put the Flag Over Ber-. lin," is displayed prominently on the booth.

The troops to have charge of this booth during the week are: Troop 3, Monday; Troop 2, Tuesday; Troop 14, Wednesday; Troop 20, Thursday, and Lafayette troop, Friday. All the troops in the city will have headquarters at the booth Saturday. LUDEND0RFF IN RAGE Hun General Angry When Told Entente Terms. Geneva, Oct. 14.
