The best money maker on the farm Is the hen. She turns grass into greenbacks, grain into gold, and from the sand and gravel she coins silver. There is noth- ing else on the place to compare with her. The cattle and horses are her heavy customers, and to get their value We must part with them but not so with the hen. In her small way sh l. is a gold mine on the face of the earth; mill that grinds that which others overlook or refuse.

WHEN HOME TOWN is MISSED.
At First the City'S a Strange Land to
One Who is Transplantcd.

1t gives you a queer feeling to be
transplanted from the little home
town to "A crowded city street made
up of houses. houses. houses, where
you don't know a soul, and never ex-
pect to. City folk don't care who
lives across the street or next door.
They have their friends scattered
about in various places where they
find them when they want them. But
we small town folk just wonder and
wonder who lives behind all those
lovely front doors, and when we catch
glimpse Of the inhabitants were in
terested in them and wonder where
they came from, and what names they
all bear.
II by chance we find, from the
telephone directory, that the people
just back of us wear the very same
name we wear we wonder if they
might be some of our long lost kith
and kin, and if we'd like 'em If we
knew 'em! It's always risky business
hunting up kinfolk, so well not try it:
but really, the woman IS so pretty
and the baby SO cunning, and the
young man who comes home in the
machine at the ems of the day is so
proud of both Of them, that we'd just
like to say "Howdy-youve got the
same name we havei" and take the
consequences.
There's the 2-year-old baby three
houses down the street who waves
her tiny hand and calls "by-by" when
we pass. We'd like so to know her
name and answer the friendly little
greeting. And there is the lonely boy
across the street who isn't used to
city ways yet. He sits on the front
steps with his elbows on his knees and
his chin in his hands, the most de-
jected looking lump Of boyhood that
you could imagine. You want to
cheer him up and tell him things will
be better when he gets acquainted.
but how in the world is he to get ac-
quainted2 And the young woman who
walks up and down the back yard Of
the house across the alley, carrying a
tiny baby in her arms and looking
anxiously down into its little face. If
| was only a little grayer, ia risk
assuming grandmotherly air and
ask her if the baby is sick.
And there's the old man who sits on
the front porch OF the handsome
house nearer the car line. We can't
decide for certain whether he is sad
or grouchy-foeling tho bitterness Of
having to live off son-in-law-or
whether he is hectoring old duffer,
worrying the soul out Of his daughter
in-law. Back home. we'd know all
about il. And the handsome woman
who sometimes buys fruit on one side
of the Italians cart, while you're buy
ing on the other side-you'd like to
know her or you think you would.
That's the trouble in the city, you
can't know for certain whom you
want to know. until you know-which h
makes things complicated Gradually
you grow accustomed to the strange
houses and strange faces. and form
your own ideas.
Gradually you get on speaking
terms with the shy baby boy next door,
so that when you go out he doesn't
make a wild dive for his back porch,
but stands up In his sand pile. waving
his hands excitedly while he tells you
some wonderful Tigamarole about his

secluded retreat near Tangier is
land. about fifty miles above Cape
Henry. The steamer Somerset and
the government buoy tender Ivy re-
ported during the early afternoon that
they had passed her at that point
The press boat then took position
near the dividing point of the old
Point and Cape Henry channels and
awaited the coming of the undersea
vessel
shortly before o'clock the first
sight of the craft was obtained. APP
parently she was about five miles
away and was low in the water, only
her coming tower showing. The
Timmins was "a short distance behind
and they were travelling about seven
miles an hour,
When near the entrance to Mobjack
bay, the Deutschland sighted the
press boat and Immediately reversed
herself and appeared TO be making for
the bay. After running for about two
miles, she again headed south until
she was abreast the Tfmmins and then
both vessels put on full speed ahead
toward the press boat Suddenly they
turned off as if to so down the old
Point channel, but when the dispatch
boat made for the same channel, they
changed their course and headed dl-
rectlS Tor cape Henry.
As the Deutschland approached it
was apparent she was carrying false
superstructure, slightly lower than her
coming tower. 1t was straw coiored
and blended with the oilskin coats
worn by her crew, who crowded the
deck. When about a mile from the
press boat the submarine began to
clear away the false Superstructure
and take soundings as if preparing to
dive. Just as the superstructure was
cleared the Timmins moved ahead of
the undersea liner and signalled that
the boats intended to pass on the
starboard side.
Immediately both vessels increased
their speed ana put over to the star
board.
As the Timmins came alongside the
press boat at a distance of perhaps
one hundred feet and with the
Deutschland moving slowly close to
her starboard side, Captain Hinsch,
of the German war-bound steamer
Neckar, who had charge of the clear
ing of the Deutschland shouted
through a megaphone, who is that %
Spccdcd Ahead.
Upon being advised that it was a
newspaper boat, he shouted this in
formation to the Deutschland and
then both vessels put on speed, NOV
ing ahead rapidly
Sailors on the Deutschland paid no
attention to salutes from the news

lently for awhile and then began put

out these lights.
The Tfmmins then moved OYER to
the port side of the channel about $50
feet from the Deutschland and they
continued in these relative positions
for considerable distance down the
bay.
by this time the sun was setting
over the water in which the Deutsch-
lard stood out clearly. Within a few
minutes after the sun had set clouds

damned by both parties. which the

they are busy discounting it. The

not going to the polls at all, for by
so doing it brands itself as "hyphen."
