WORLD, SAYS STANLEY

Declaring that America must feed
the world while the allies are recruit
ing their armies, Governor Stanley adj
dressed a letter to the Kentucky
branch of the Council for National De
Tense, outlining the duties of its men,
bers. He says the members without
delay must organize their counties by
precincts or other convenient districts.
Then they must aid and assist, he
says, in the immediate planting OF
every available foot OF arabic land in
such fOodstuffs as may be required By
the people Of the allies, such as corn,
potatoes, beans, and the like.
The Governor says the members
must impress on the people that the
selective draft bill. shortly to be en-
acted, should not be regarded as a CO.
ercive measure, but the means adopt
ed by the Congress to render availa-
BILE the willing service of our brave
boys. Registration day is not a time
of comulsion, but of opportunity, and
every young man of military age
should remember that in Fastening to
record his name as directed he is, in
deed, rallying to the colors, as did his
martial sires, who made the freedom
we enjoy possible only by their willing

FIGHT WITH BUZZARD

an Hours Terrific GrueIing.

Santa Rosa, Gala battle between a
giant buzzard and a fifteen-year-old
boy clinging to the root of shrub $50
feet up a straight ledge of rock was
won by the boy, who is now recover
ing from an experience that rivals
Poe's fictiOnal terrOrs.
The boy is Hans Mierbach, and he
hung high above pile of jagged rocks
for four hours. He was walking on
the brink of precipice when his foot
slipped and he fell over. Twenty feet
below he caught root and hung on.
With his handkerchief he tied his left
wrist to the root and then wrote q note
to a boy friend bidding him farewell
and saying that no one was responsible
for his predicament.
Just as he finished writing a huge
buzzard flew down upon him and start
ed to peck ut his head and body. The
hungry bird inflicted deep wounds in
the boys flesh. Young Mierbach fought
the buZzard with his free hand for over
an hour. He had been tormented to a
frenzy and was about exhausted when
the bird gave up the fight.
At nightfall a searching party found
the boy and rescued him. He had
nearly lost consciousness from his ex-
perience and loss Of blood.

MORE EGGS BY KINDNESS.
Professor Has q Theory That Will BE
Given n THOROUGH Test.

Vineland, N. J.-Whether kindly
treatment of a hen will accelerate egg
productivity in the inverse ratio Of
careless CT Indifferent attention Is to
be given official demonstration in the
egg laying contests under way here.
Professor e. L. tombstone, superin-
tendent of the Training School For
Feeble Minded Boys and Girls. has
maintained that kindness to hen
means more eggs, but some of the ex-
pert poultrymen hereabOuts scout the
idea, saying that the average hen is
too obtuse to appreciate what is done
for her.
With the aid of Harry r. Lewis,
poultry husbandman of the state ex-
pertinent station, Professor tombstone
has arranged for the demonstration of
his theory.
Two pens Of hens of the same breed
and strain will be set apart To one of
them will be attached as attendant n
man who can go about his work with
a sunny smile, cheerful interest and
gentle touch. To the other will be as
signed one with an ingrown crouch.
The same feed and the same conditions
exactly will be applied to both pens
and the records carefully kept as to
which gives the best results. Professor
tombstone feels sure that his theory
will be fully substantiated.
