HOW MALTA BECAME GARDEN
Earth and Spread 1t Over Barren
Rocks of the Island.

What Malta was like before the
Maltese found 1t one cannot imagine,
says the Manchester Guardian. Pre-
sumably there was some soil some
where, hidden among the little valleys
that scar the golden rock. But there
was very little soil. Most of the island
must have been just plain rock, with
nothing in particular to recommend it.
But somewhere in the dawn of history
there came an Industrious, ingenious
race and proceeded to make the best of
it. They have been doing that all down
the centuries, till now they have re-
duced it to a fine art, and the barren
rock is a garden from end to end.
They realized, those clever Maltese,
that although they might not have
earth enough to grow their food, there
were plenty of people who had enough
and to spare. So they sent their ships
abroad, and the ships came back load
ed with just plain earth. This earth
they took and spread on the Lodges of
their rocks and sowed their seed and
reaped their harvests and prospered
exceedingly.

Pea Stray for SiIage

The university farm managers are
for the purpose of making it easier to
keep the U. of I. herd this winter

the value of pea straw as food. Large
quantities of this straw are available
for feed in Latah county. This new
one of the .silos consists of three parts
of pea straw with one part of corn
grown and cut for silage. A liberal
the mixture looks like promising one
for silage purposes.

Twas Ever Thus.

Here you have the story of all hui
man love. 1t is not the real woman
we adore, but an eidolon, phantasm
that the god in us fashions out of the
mist of our desires and the light of our
fancy, and the woman who is, is but q
symbol for the cloud-bride, for the
woman who is not and never will be.
1t was an eidolOn, q phantasm in the
likeness of the woman you have seen,
that inspired your poet, and it was Of
the eidolon he spoke in his often too
daring, too violent verses. The eidolon
he took with him on his perilous jour
ney to all the heights and depths of
passion, whereas the real woman lived
safely and unsuspectingly in quite an
other spiritual latitude in Philistia, and
flannels were the matter of her con-
Germ. And wherever you find une
grande passion, a love and a passion
that seem more than human, be sure
that they were given merely to a
dream, dream seen as in mirror in
the form of the loved one. She who
lived in his house and whom you think
of your poet, she was to him
as much a stranger as she is to you.
The one he pressed to his heart, the
one into whose ear he whispered his
songs, the one who gave him all that
love could give to love, that was the
eidolon, and the eidolon died with him.
In vain you will go and search for it."
Lisa Ysaye Tarleau in Atlantic.
