they may produce q large proportion

does not receive the care bestowed

profits could be made larger. Fifty
hens are not too many on one acre of

Good Breeds In Swine.

weight at market prices cares little
about the scientific breeding. 1t is

THE FIRST MUSICAL STRIKE.
When Flute-Piayers in Ancient Rome
Quilted a Temple


The male flute players Of ancient
Rome wsre Of high rank. and seem 10
have been held in high esteem. In
connection with these, Nelerius Max
imus relates a story OF what was prob
ably the earliest musical strike" on
record.
The flute players formed a guild
in Rome. and had certain privileges,
among which was the right 10 take
lunch in the Temple OF Jupiter. I:
seems that on one occasion the jan.
itor OF the temple refused them ad.
mission. Instantly the entire guild
was notified. and the flute players left
Rome in body. This was a most i'm
portant detection, for the flute was
the religious instrument and funerals,
weddings and other sacred ceremonies
were about as much hindered as il
every organist among us at present
were suddenly to refuse TO touch the
keys.
An embassy was Immediately dis
patched to the village Of Thur, wherr
the irate musicians had taken refuge
anu pleddeu Win them 10 return to
Rome. The flute players, however, re-
NAMED obdurate. The ambassadors
were diplomatic and sought the aid OF
the inhabitants of Tibur. These gave
banquet in recognition of the honor
done to their village by the musicians
but at this banquet they insidiously
made the flute players indulge in the
cup that cheers and at the same time
intoxicates, and at the end of thu
feast handed them over to the Re
mans in a thoroughly befuddled con-
dition. and the latter put them in carts
and drove them back TO Rome wher'
