SENATOR GORE NOW
BATTLING FOR
HIS SIGHT
STATESMAN FROM OKLAHOMA
RECEIVING TREATMENT AT A
WASHINGTON HOSPITAL - HE
OWES SUCCESS TO HIS WIFE.

WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator
Thomas p. Gore, the blind statesman
from Oklahoma, is one OF the mos
Interesting figures In Washington and
indeed in national politics. He Is daily
battling for the restoration OF his
sight at the Episcopal Eye. Ear and
Throat hospital.
The senator always speaks OF his
charming wife as my beautiful brown
eyes" During the recent campaign in
Oklahoma he would often say In his
speeches: Gentlemen. remember the
little brown-eyed woman at home has
set her heart on my going 10 the Unit
ed States senate. Vote for the little
brown-eyed woman If you can
This is one OF the greatest rom2uces
Of modern politics. The blind pohti-
clan, almost alone, except for his bril-
liant wife, no money, his competitors
spending thousands, with only his re-
markable gift of oratory and again his
devoted. faithful but invalid wife, with
whom he plunged boldly into the strug-
gle for fame, From the earliest days
OF their married life Mrs. Gore has
been the eyes" the inspiration and
support OF the career of the young
statesman.
The senator admits that but for the
help and encouragement OF his help
mate he could not have climbed so
far up the ladder Of fame. II was the
wffe's idea that the senator should
carry his campaign into the very
homes Of the people OF the rural dis
tricts. Evening after evening the
blind statesman would spend sitting
before the fires of the country people
telling them OF his hopes and ambi-
tione and OF his great desire TO legis-
late better laws for the masses. He
never forgot to tell them about his
wife at home or how thoroughly she
Bhared his hopes and aims. Some
times the wife would accompany the
husband.
Although two of Senator Cores op-
ponents spent two hundred thousand
dollars on the campaign, when the re-
turns came in from the rural districts
It was found that the farmers had re-
sponded spontaneously TO the appeals
for the little brown-eyed woman"
and voted for her.
Probably the proudest day Of her
life was the day that congress con-
vened as she sat In the senate gallery

her efforts was now one. II was late.
after all the members had taken their
seats. that the blind senator was led

A Constant Visitor.
Day after day during the sessions
OF congress Mrs. Gore was constani
visitor 10 the senate. She is as nm
ished a politician as any man who
has a voice in the legislation OF the
country. often during heated de
bate the senator would turn his sight

While his wife was busy az home

unaccompanied except by dignitarles
of the different towns Mapping our

speaking and telling one and all or
his chief standby, the little brown
eyed woman at home who wants me

busy wife found time 10 write low

effort. These letters he read 10 the
plowmen. cotton growers and thei:
wives. and each time he received new
inspiration and support. His oppon'
ents did not know how TO compete in

TOO much credit cannot be given

ator Gore 10 a friend after his cleo
ton. 1T is she that depend upon

and continued encouragement made II
possible for me 10 win, and 10 her

Lived There Only Six Years.
The senator and his family had Nv
ed in Oklahoma only six years when
the senator announced MS canuIudcE
for the United States senate. Al
first his candidacy was not taken ser
iously. The senator, at his wife's sug-
gestion. made still hunt and dis
cussed his plans with no one, She
passed upon and approved every step
he made. If she opposed plan, II
was abandoned at once. II she
thought it good. 1t was adopted.
While the senator is busy with his
political duties his wife, when she Is
not with him, spends her time writ,
ing his letters. reading subjects that
will be useful TO him and arranging as
many or his affairs as possible Each
morning she reads him the speeches
OF his fellow statesmen and other pub
lie documents far into the night, Be
sides all this, she is a most devoted
mother TO her little girl, looking over
her lessons with her and often accom-
panying her as far as the school build

times. This is the case in this local
ity, and very few here have an idea
as to the amount of food a hen
should have to do her best, nor do
they know anything about feeding a
balanced ration. Hens in full laying
seem to require rations that have a
relatively larger content of protein
and ash
On the basis of large number of
tests carried on at the New York Sta
ton, the ration for laying hens has
been calculated as follows: For each
100 pounds of live weight, hens 5 to
pounds; total dry matter, $50
pounds; protein, 0.65 pound; fat, 0.20
pound carbohydrates, 2.25 pounds;
ash, 0.20 pound. Hens from 3 to 5
pounds: Total dry matter, $50
pounds; protein, l pound; fat, OBS
pound; carbohydrates, 3.75 pounds;
ash, 0.30 pound. AS a sample of ra-
ton, which would fill the require
ments of this standard, Prof. Wheeler
suggests the following for hens weigh
ing from 5 to pounds: Cracked corn,
1 pound; wheat, Il pound; corn meal,
q pound; y pound each of wheat
middlings, buckwheat middlings and
animal meal, with sc pound of fresh
bone and rs pound of green alfalfa.

VALUE OF DUST BATHS.

The natural way by which fowls
cleanse their bodies and keep them
free from lice and mites is by means
of dust baths. In providing these
baths it is we'll to bear in mind the
specific points which prompt their
use. While exercise is an important
thing provided by the baths, the main
good they do is to relieve the birds
from lice and mites, which would 9TH
erwise make their lives miserable. The
birds roll and scratch and fluff their
feathers until the fine dust is thor
oughly worked through their plumage
and down to the skin. The insects re-
ferred to breathe through the pores in
their bodies and the fine particles of
dust close those up and the vermin
die.
1t will be seen, therefore, that the
dust bath must be composed of very
fine dust to be effective. The dryer
and finer it is, the better the fowls
will like it and the more good it will
do them. Some people mix fine
screened coal or wood ashes with
road dust and think that the combin-
alton is better than either one alone.
A little tobacco dust mixed with the
wallowing material is also a good
thing, as it aids in eXterminating yer.

Well, sir, she was on the set for
keeps. Couldn't keep her off. Old
door knobs, soda bottles, lamp chin

three mud turtles, and l hope to die
if she didn't hatch out alligators! Yes,
sir; three of 'em! One Of 'em ate
her up, and when we opened him
there was the hen settin on his back
