large and small, and robed and trou-
sered, centered toward the city of
strong men, and, ;ne by one, presented
themselves, in turn, to a grave and
silent, kinky-haired old darby by the
name of Ephraim
One motive alone had dragged them
over sterile plains and snowy noun
tains and bounding seas; the magic
whisper of Money!
Through Ephrairi they came to the
stocky, square-standing, square-faced
chess player who was called Allison.
They found him pleasant, agreeable,
but hardly of their class. He was SO
forceful as to be necessarily more or
less crude, and he had an unpleasant
fashion of waving aside all the decent
little pretenses about money. That
was the fault Of this whole rude coun-
try, where luxury had been brought to
the greatest refinement ever known in
devoted to money, and the cultured
gentlemen did their best to get all
they could.
To Ivan Strolesky Allison was frank
and friendly, for there was something
in the big Russian which was different
from these others, so he fastened to
have business out of the way.
Here are your lines" he said,
spreading down map which had been
brought up to date by hand. THE

quantity that you would all take steps
to be more careful in the future.
One of the most common ways OF
wasting feed is to feed it upon the
ground when the surface Is wet or
soft. Feed scattered about in this
fashion Will soon be tramped upon and
buried under the mud, Pigs, especially
are wasteful Of feed given to them in
this way but many feeders have real
lied the loss and have prevented it by
building concrete feeding floors
which will not only pay their cost in
the feed they save in few years, but
enable the quarters to be kept In a
more sanitary condition.
Feed may be wasted when it Is fed
in the managers in excess of the ami
mails needs. This is loss that is
easily preventable, for the feeder IL
he is observing will know just how
much the animal will eat up clean.
For feeding alfalfa, clover, soy bean
hay or other coarse feed, rack OF
the kind shown in the illustration is
handy and prevents waste. More sir1-
pie racks are often constructed on the
inside of hog house by placing them
against one Of the sides Of the build
Ing or adjoined to the pen partition.

ATTlLA, "sCOURGE OF GOD"
Mighty Leader of the Huns as He
Has Been Pictured by Eminent
French Historian.

The great French historian, Niche
let, has graphically described Attila,
the mighty Hun, who in the. fifth cen
fury met defeat which curbed his
progress and threw him and his horde
back to eastern Europe. His true orr
entail name, name which is retained
unchanged in the German tongue, was
Etzel, which signified vast and
mighty thing, a mountain, river, par
ticularly that immense river, the Vol
ga. Prtscus, an author of the fifth
century, who saw Attila face to face,
describes him, says Micheelt, as
stern and grave, short, thick set and
strongly built, hat-nosed, his broad
face pierced with two fiery holes"
Continuing he says: after all, what
would this Tartar have gained by con-
quering the Roman empire? He would
have felt himself stifled In those
walled cities and palaces Of marble.
Far better he loved his wooden vii
lage, all painted and tapestried, with
it's thousand kiosks Of many colors and
all around it the green meadows Of the
Danube. Though an enemy to Ger
many, he made use of it. His ally was
the enemy OF the Germans, Genseric,
the Weud, who was settled in Africa
He called Attila into Gaul against the
Goths of Toulouse. Attila's passage
was marked by the ruin of Metz and
of great number of towns. The null
titude of legends relating to this per-
iod may afford some idea of the i'm
preston which that terrible event left
on the memory of nations"

Rabies Not Limited to Any Season

According to DR.. o. Mcdaniel, DOG
Days do not influence the occurrence
OF rabies. The important point, how
ever, is that anyone bitten by dog
suspected of being rabid, regardless
of the season of the year, should re-
ceive proper attention.
The suspected dog should be kept
under observation for at least two
weeks. If it remains well, rabies is
excluded. If it becomes sick or dies,
the head should be examined by the
Pasteur Department Of the State
Board of Health, and the individuals
bitten should report at the depart
ment for treatment.
Rabies is usually fatal to dogs in
from three to five days after the first
symptoms are observed. Individuals
bitten by rabid dogs, unless under
treatment, become sick in from five
to nine weeks. The popular belief
that individuals may develop symp-
toms several months or years later
is as false as the belief that Dog Days
cause mad dogs.

ancient enemy"

only important banks are controlled

tapped himself upon the breast with
deep and sincere feeling.

his shoulders. He pushed back the
slip Of paper.
IF your banking system found 1t
impossible to be patriotic, your gov
eminent would be compelled to raise
money through other means. 1t would
not withdraw from the war"
"Never!" and the neat-waister caller
once more touched himself on the
breast.
'It would be compelled to negotiate
a loan. If other governments, through
some understanding among their
bankers, found it difficult to provide
this loan, your government would find
it necessary to release It's ownership.

able commercial possession"
The caller, who had followed AL
iison's progressive statement with in
terest, gave a quick little nod of his
head.
"That most valuable commercial
possession" went on Allison, lis the
state railways. You were convinced by
my agent that there is new and
powerful force in the world, or you
would not be here. Suppose I point

A NATION OF WEALTH

The total wealth of the United States is estimated at
hundred and lightweight billions of dollars and it is
figured out that the wealth Of the land has about doubled
in decade and half. The greater portion of this
wealth in real property and improvements which, taxed
and exempt amounts to a hundred and ten billions The
railroads with equipment up about sixteen billions.
Manufactured products amount to fifteen billions. In
furniture carriages and automobiles, etc. the folks have
eight billions tied up Over six billions represent the
value Of live stock and the represents the value
of manufacturing machinery ETC. The street railways
up four billions Some hundred thousand above that
represent the value of the clothing and adornment
worn. Agricultural products run up five billions.
fact that should not be overlooked is that the doub
ling OF this countlys wealth in fifteen years has been
brought about largely by the increase in land values
fact that likely to start argument and discussion
of question that has long been discussed The increase
in population has had deal to do with the rise in the
value OF land which accounts for much of the increase
the countyS wealth in the last fifteen years If YOUR
memory runs back that many years you recall some
thing to values and conditions and if you have been
looking about to secure few near to town you know
something Of the increase in value of acres easy of access
The growth of the cities and villages has done much to
help swell the countrys wealth.
They're coming over the sea to borrow here something
unheard OF in the history of borrowing and floating loans
and securities and floating them without securities This
country in spite of the predictions of calamity made by
the politicians who thought they couldn't live without
government and privilege is the money lender of the
time.
But it is not wealth that exas nation Wealth can
serve nation; that is ALL 1t does not of itself make al
nation great The United States was great when it was

WAR BRINGS NEW RACE

Herman Suderman, the German poet is saying that
war is to the heroic to suppant the eshetc in the
worlds ideals and action There are many who assert
that war develops higher qualities in mankind
But facts do not sustain this quality
Degeneration of population as result of war is forciby
brought to public attention at this time by the discovery
OF the fact that the boys born in Great Britain during the
Boer noticeaby inferior to those who proceeded
them in the schools
In Japan the young born during the war with
China are just coming of military age and are found to
be fewer in number in proportion to population and in
ferior physically and mentally to the generation preced
ing them.
The United States saved from the full effects of
this degeneracy in birth caused by the Civil war by the
great flood OF immigration which has been pouring into
the country In many sections of the south however the
effect is very noticeable
Who can doubt that this would have been very diff
ferent country today if the 100000 men of American blood
who pershed in the Civil had lived to become fathers
Of families of Americans?
The great multitude of war widows and of unmarried
women who would have become wives and mothers has
been the most pathetic feature of social life in the United
States for the last so years.
When the effect of the present war on the population
OF Europe is considered the prospect appalling Europe
cannot recoup herself by immigration as did the United
States and the outlook opens upon the growing ascend
ency Of the Asiatc peoples
1t was the Emperor of Germany who first called aten
tlon to the yellow peril" But war is doing far more to
increase that peril than anything that yellow races can
do for themselves.
