MEAT AS CHICKEN FOOD.
Rhode Island Experimental Station Tells of Several Tests in This
 Direction.

In a recent report of experiments in feeling chickens. the Rhode Island ex- pertinent station says:
 The use of the proper proportion of animal food will pay a handsome profit through decreased mortality and in creased weight of the chicks. In feeding bear in mind that chicks in state of nature spend practically all of their working hours in search of food. and that they do not fill their crops in ten minutes every two hours. Feeding should be, as far as the time of the at tendant renders profitable, a continuous process. but by no means . continuous gorge.
 The experiment which led up to this conclusion was with an incubator hatch of 21s chickens These were separated into lots of about 50 each and placed in similar breeders. For 30 days all condi- tions were kept alike except the rations. Pen A was fed a balanced ration of grains, meat and green food. The chicks grew and thrived and not one chick showed symptoms of digestive disorder. The deaths amounted to 3.9 per cent. In pen B all animal food was withheld; the deaths were 9.6 per cent. of which 75 per cent. had bowel trouble. Pen c was fed on grain alone. all animal food and all green food being omitted from the ration: the deaths were 32.7 per cent. of which 7s.5 per cent. showed digestive trouble. In pen D all grain food was omitted; the deaths of chicks were 63.T per cent, of which S5.8 per cent. showed bowel trouble. All the living chicks were weighed at the close of the test. and pen A showed the geatest aver age weight for all breeds.
 This experiment shows conclusively that outside of breeding and conditions during incubation chicks may be killed by improper feeding. Where one does not wish to buy the prepared beef scraps. the bones and scraps from the table will go far toward feeding the baby chicks at first If put in shape so they can eat them"

vitaticn to the after-concert banqum only on condition. that the speech
 making be moderate. The students from Kristiania, come as they were were under the published patronage of the Kronprlnsen, would, at least until the tour was ended, display no lack of loyalty to existing rule,
 But by and by singers and listeners warmed up, there passed . subtle un spoken sympathy that made things all right; and presently it seemed the very roof of the Auditorium would be raised from it's moorings with the ap- plause the floors give way with the resounding approval of the songs and singers.
 They came on the stage some 50 of them, the leader carrying the Ameri- can flag And then these gentlemen bound on doing the right thing, sang in perfect English and with fine modu- lation of tone our Star Spangled Ban ner." We do not remember ever hav- ing heard 1t delivered with more feel ing. Talk or dramatic Latlns; the Norsemen have . pretty eloquence of their own.
 And they have singers and poets and noble surroundings to inspire these to worthy work. There were songs with words written by that passionate Nor wegian, Bjornson; and there was the music of Grieg. There were bits of Morse legend, there were wonderful songs of Morse faith in the spirit there were pictures of the North sea and of the old mountains of Norway there was the life of the coast. It was interesting to note what most appealed to the sea of people reaching from orchestra to dim roof of the great auditorium; what they liked best was not the martial. the gay, the live ly, but an exquisitely tender, mystical En Sangers bon-A Singers Prayer.

Jacques
"UNDER TWO FLAGS

Not the least of the effective toucnes with which Under Two Flags the Ouida play, which the Poll players are giving at the Jacques this week, is filled. is the meeting of the Princess Corona, who as the child veneta Rock ingfam. was the only one who went to Bertie Cecil in the hour of his trial, md the man whom she had aided, who now is enrolled in the roster of the Chasseurs d'Afrique as plain Corp Louis Victor. For 12 years Bertie has not seen the face of woman of his world. He has submerged his entire personality in the days work, has lived the life of his fellows and mas accustomed himself to the habit of a servant to the orders of his superiors Into the hopeless grayness of his exist ence comes this beautiful woman of his own people, of the class from which he separated himself. and who in passing through the barracks stops moment to admire the ivory chess men his skill has made, inquiring ar the same time their price. Instinctiye- ly and for an instant the old time cOurtliness of manner rises to the sur face as the soldier tells the princess that the only reward he asks Is the honor of her acceptance. Then in the hauteur of the lady's refusal. the insur mountable barrier of caste which iI his other life he had held invulnerable, the difference between Bertie Cecil, second son of the Viscount R0yallieu and Louis Victor Of the African Le- zion rears itself between them and Cecil, the last one to ask that the ob- stacle be removed assumes again the impersonality of his position. Th- scene is beautifully acted by MT Sim mons and Miss McKeon, and is one of the most striking bits of the play. Fri day afternoon will be souvenir day. and pictures of Mir Simmons and Nciss Lc Blanc will be distributed to each lady present.

cry face bespoke origin in that land where they grow big men and fine women. and one felt far away from skimpy, narrow -chested people. Every one (nearly) was fair and lusty and jovial, breathed of mountain top and swinging step in high, pure attitudes. Every one tnearly) was jolly and kind ly of glance. and every one was decked in fnery brought out to show that many . kroner had been acquired in golden America. All was merry as the hard-worked marriage bell.
 And yet there was business going along with the social interchange; as soon as one entered. be it man or woman, one was accosted by an eager gentleman that requested one to sign . paper that was to carry to the new Morse government promise of the sup port of the Chicago Norwegians.
 We walked up to the table and found long papers bearing hundreds of names. the numbers attesting to the feeling of the people on the subject of separation. They seemed of one mind, there was no need. and no show of argumentative appeal. Bright-faced men and women discussed affairs with optimistic view, it seemed a sort of Hail Columbia occasion-or. rather. Hail Norway.
 As is well-known, of late years there has been a great advance in Norway among the womeR and last night as we looked upon the faces of the many Norwegian women we voted them equal to many and different demands. Above the average do they appear in intelligence. and with the physique to stand such mental effort. Fine women,

 When the song ended there was no doubt that friendship had been estab- lished, the students waved their caps and called greetings from the stage. the people waved back kerchief and hat. sent out to the stage Hello! Hell To! Good.by! Good.by!" It was as though the platform were the deck of and outbound vessel. the crowd cheer ing the voyagers as friends are sped at parting.
 Norwegian words flew back and forth, even the second generation" that 70 often disclaimed the foreign origin, tonight were proud they were Norwegians. Young America walked proudly beside little old Norwegian grandfather, talked with him in his own tongue. Prosperous ladies with pale gray cloaks and diamonds in their ears forgot fashion and hummed "In Jotunheimen." Men of affairs forgot American dollars and thought on olaf Trygvason."

 And how swelled the song when they came to
