Each cat will average IL kittens Pc

sell on an average of 80 cents 6
piece, making our revenue about
us 100000 skins for a year tc
skin fifty cats per day for So. 1t
will take about 100 men to operate
the ranch and therefore the net pro-
fit will thus be about $4,000 per day
We will feed the cats on rats and
will start a rat ranch next door. The
rats will multiply four times as fast
as the cats, therefore if we start
with one million rats, we will have
four rats day for each cat, which
is plenty. Now then we will feed
the rats on carcasses of the cats from
which the skins have been taken,
giving each rat a fourth of a cat.
1t will thus be seen that the bust
ness will be self sustaining and
automatic all the way through. The
cats will eat the rats and the rats
will eat the cats and we will get

AMERICAN
Learn One Thing Every Day"
NO. s. WINSTON CHURCHILL
from An periments in fiction.

Although he graduated from An
napolis in 1894, Winston Churchill
never served in the navy. Instead i'm
mediately after completing his stud
les he began writing. He found out
that he could write when he was still
at Annapolis, and decided that fic-
ton rather than the navy was his
line of work. For this the young
graduate had fine equipment. An
napolis gave him self-reliance AM
determination. Those graduates OF
the Naval Academy who have not
gone into the navy have usually been
successful in whatever they have
done. This is particularly true in the
case Of Churchill. Well educated, a.
the same time he is full of the joy Of
life itself, and likes all sorts of out
door sports. He is a favorite every
where.
