this is desirable but the company is
willing TO teach its help.
Whether this will become perman-

entirely on the ease with which help

building, a structure 200 by 800 feet in
size, and two stories high. The loca-
ton has already been decided upon and
an option on the property secured.

is RELIC OF The TCE AGE"
National Museum Curator Reports on
Petrified Remains Found In
West Virginia.

Marlinton, w. Wa report has
been made by ]. w. Gidley, assistant
curator of the National museum,
Washington, on the petrifed remains
found in blasting the big limestone
cliff at the boundary Of the town of
Renick, this county, by the Renick
Stone company. He says: THE
specimens are remains of a pig-like
animal known as phatygonus. This
animal Is related to the peccary now
living in Central and South Africa,
but was much larger than the present
species. They were very abundant in
the eastern and central United States
during the pleistocene or ice age"
A skull found among the fossils was
in an especially fine state of preserva-
ton and looks not unlike the skull of
a horse, though much smaller, with
immense tusks. MI. Gidley says the
skull is of especial interest as 1t prob
ably represents an u~ndescribed
species and because 1t supplements
another recent discovery of somewhat
similar character near Cumberland,
Md. Arrangements were made with
the stone company to protect the de-
post until an experienced collector
can be detailed to visit the place.
Mr.. Gidley expects to visit Renick
soon to make a thorough investiga-
tion.

islands in which ca%nnibalism is prac-

converts he was captured by a canni-

neighboring king,

meeting Unexpectedly a detachment of
English sailors, he refused to accom-.

the discussion opened the packet.
Therein, besides a number of pun
gent little onions, was a letter con

words:

PITIED THE HUNGRY GUEST
Naive Explanation for Bringing More
Food Than Customer Had
Ordered.

Smithson had been travelling all
night, jolted and jostled by the train
as it raced on its journey north.
Toward even o'clock in the morn
ing he reached his destination, and
now, being ravenously hungry, has
tened from the station to a neighbor-
ing restaurant, where he impressed
the mi and only waiter then astir
with his immediate need for coffee
and two big boiled eggs.
Five minutes later this meal was
served.
But, waiter" said Smithson, as he
glanced at the table, why in the
world have you brought me three
eggs? l only ordered two"
"Oui, m'sieu," replied the waiter;
but m'sieu he did look SO 'ungry that

weeks made gains of less than me-
fifth of a pound each.
2. That birds fed shelled corr and
meat scrap for the same length of
time made slightly better gains.
3. That birds fed shelled corr and
wheat did not make as good gains as
the lot fed shelled corn alone.
4. That birds fed shelled corn,
wheat and meat scrap did not make
as good gains as those fed shelled
corr and meat scrap.
s. That birds fed corn meal and
meat scrap moistened with water
made a gain of two-ifths of a pound
each,
6. That birds fed on corn meal
mixed with buttermilk made a gain
of one-half pound each.
Z. That when birds were confined
in a f~attening crate and fed a ration
of finely ground grain moistened with
buttermilk each bird made a gain of
one pound, and this gain was made at
a cost of about Z cents per pound,
while the cost Of the gains on the
birds fed shelled corn ranged from
80 cents to 60 cents for each pound
gained.
These results prove that whole
grain does not fatten chickens read
fly; that 1t is cheaper to feed the
grain finely ground, and that the best
gains can be had by feeding birds
finely ground feeds when confined in
crates.
The figure shows a fattening crate
that is suitable for the farmers of
Missouri. The crate is 6 feet long, 20
inches high and 20 inches wide, and is
divided into three pens, each two feet
long. The frame Is made Of 1x2.inch
material. The top, back and ends are
covered with inch mesh poultry net
ting. The floor is made Of inch mesh
woven wire netting, made of No. 3
wire. The wire makes a very salts
factory floor, as the droppings can
pass through and be collected be-
meath, thus keeping the pens and
birds in sanitary condition.
The front is made Of lath, placed
about two inches apart, the spaces
being governed by the size of the
chickens to be fattened. The two
center laths in each pen are fixed SO
they can be raised, and serve as a
door.
