VALUABLE FEED FOR FOWLS
In Repeated Tests Hens Given skim
MIX Make Much Better Record
Than Those Given Water.

To test the value of skim milk for
laying hens, sixty puuets were put in
two pens, equally divided, Of one va
rioty and ali as. near OF an age as pos
sible, They were fed exactly alike,
gcaping strict account Of their feed,
but given different drinks One pen
had sweet skim milk, white the other
had only plenty Of fresh water.
This test was begun on November l
and accounts were balanced with both
pens on May following. The hens
that drank the water had but a little
over half as much credit for eggs
la!d while their feed had cost nearly
third more than the hens which
were fed skim milk. Some days in
the very coolest weather the thirty
milk-fed pullets laid twenty-eight eggs,
,and their average for January was
twenty-four eggs daily. The skim
milk-fod hens not only produced many
more eggs, but they did not consume
as much food as those in the other
pen.
Since then these tests have been
repeatedly tried with different breeds
and with the same rsults.

faces of the tide going in and COM

within this dismal chamber where
even gilded aids move swiftly and
respectfully, as in the presence of
death.
But in this brief moment two faces
stand clearly in my memory. The
one a peasant woman with shawl
fallen about her shoulders, her face
dead white and her eyes in barren
apathy staring into space as she
reeled against the wall. Like uAe
walking in sleep, she moved slowly
across the room with eyes that saw
not the respectful sympathy that
made pathway toward the door,
and thus she passed out and away
to take up her burdens and her lonely
life.
My eyes turned from her to still
another picture In the antechamber

He stood respectfully by while in
his chair there sat a young woman.

fur collar spoke of her better posi-
ton in life, She, too, had made her
offering on the altar of the nations

she had, almost without visible sign.

columns and had reached the outer
door only to sink in the chair be-
yond. ] saw her but for an instant
and turned hastily away, but still the
picture remains, With head resting
on the blotter and hands clasped
tightly beneath her small white fore
head, she sat with deep gasping sobs
that shook her small girls body
through and through, and, as she
sobs, her costly fur slips from her
slender shoulders to the floor, and
the great rough soldier, picking it
up, gently places it about her neck.
With an effort she stands up, speaks
courteous word In Russian to the
gentle soldier and then she, too,
passes through the throng and is
gone.-stanley Washbun in Golfers
