CONDITIONS MAKE ECONOMICAL
POULTRY FEEDING NEcES-
SARY.
ROY H. WAITE, Poultryman.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

The economical use of feed for
poultry should be practiced at all
times. for in the poultry business, a
penny wisely saved is better than a
penny earned. During the present high
price Of feed. there is more reason
for being economical, but being
economical does not mean cutting
down on feed. unless the fowls are
too fat. 1t does mean balancing the
amount Of feed fed and the eggs or
meat produced, so that the largest re-
turns in the shape Of profits will be
realized I have known people who
have fed their hens only the cheapest
feed, thinking they were being econom-
zeal and who could have by adding
q small amount of soae high protein
feed, turned their total loss into at

What Causes Fires.

or the ~, 900 destructive fires which
occurred last year in New York city,
more than 6. 900 We're traced directly to
one or another of the following sources:
Carelessness of dropping lighted matches,
cigars or cigarettes, the liling of rub
bisli or infammable materials in closets
and cellars, holding candles or other
lights near curtains, letting children play
with matches, failure to protect wood
work from stove pipes or heating pipes,
and failure to keep chimney fues clean.
Fire Commissioner Adamson believes
that destructive fires originated from
carelessne>s.
The fire marshall of Illinois declares
that 70 per cent. of the fires Of that
state are due 10 carelesSness. Last year
they cost the people Of ILLINOIS, Sl2. 900,
600 and took more than 400 lives.
That is terrible price to pay for care

The records Of New York and Illinois
are broadly typical of the United States.

The abundance of fish in the Sea
OF Galilee continues to this day to be
the wonder of travellers. For the
most part the fishing done by the
Syrians involves the use of nets,
probably identical in construction
with those of the Apostles, and the
best evidence that the fishing through.
out all these centuries has been ac-
complished by these nets is to be
found in the ease with which the
greater part OF the fish may be de-
ceived with the aid OF any bait, nat
ural or artificial. The pellucid water
Of this lake, with it's everchanging
reflections. is in striking contrast with
the muddy depths of the River Jor-
dan. The silt in that stream, how
ever, does not seem to inconvenience
the fish. which are extraordinarily
plentiful, even in the lower reaches
before it falls into that deathly lake
which the Arabs call the Sea Of Lot.

and effective onslaught against the

There was a Dublin riot which
broke out on the mere rumor OF a
scheme for the union of Ireland with
England. The mob on December 3,
1859, descended upon the houses Of
parliament and testified to their scorn
of politicians by seating upon the
throne a decrepit old woman, In whose
