OF waste which It eats and would,
therefore. require to be largely fed
from garnered materials.
Chickens, In any general scheme OF
poultry production, of courseS must
take first place. They are best adapt
ed to general conditions, take wide
range of feeds and convert them, per-
haps, with the greatest margin Of
profit. Chickens, better than any 9TH
er class of poultry, utilize table scraps
and the general run of waste from the
kitchen door, all the way from apple
and potato parings to sour milk. Chick
ems far surpass all other kinds of poul-
try in salyaging waste grain from the
stables, from the shed or lot where the
cattle are fed, and from hog pens. Dur
ing the winter months, on farms where
any considerable number Of live stock
are kept, the 100 hens suggested
would make their living from these
sources with only slight additional
feeding from time to time. Chickens
are great destroyers of insects, includ-
ing many injurious forms, In yard, pas
ture, and orchard. They utilize, also,
many grasses and weeds, and seeds
from the same, that would otherwise
be of no use. Except in isolated In
stances, the part of wisdom would be,
undoubtedly, to keep more chickens
than all other kinds Of poultry COM
bined, but there should be, in a ma
jority Of cases, some Of all the other
common kinds of poultry.

Germany Has Pledged to Let
Both Military and Civilian
Prisoners Have Home Help

Through the Spanish ambassador at
Berlin arrangements have been made
whereby American prisoners in Ger
many, both civilian and military, will
be allowed to receive money from
home. They will perhaps not receive
actual cash, but will probably be given
credit on prison exchanges.
A. ID Sixty marks (about SIS at
normal exchange rates, but probably
considerably less now may be spent
weekly by officers and others of SIM
liar rank; (2) SO marks weekly (about
S12) by noncommisSioned officers and
privates.
B. Civilian prisoners-O Sixty
marks weekly ''for men of better So
cial positions (2) 80 marks weekly
for others.
The note of the Spanish ambassador
says: with a view to obtaining par
ticular articles the prisoners are al
lowed at any time to draw on their
credit"
All money sent informed civilians
or prisoners should be RENTED
through the Bureau of Prisoners
Relief, American Red Cross, Washing
ton, d. c. Remittances should be
checks, drafts or postal money orders,
made payable to the American Red
Gross. That organization will do its
best to get the remittances through
but cannot guarantee delivery. Thus
far it has had pretty good success, and
such American prisoners as have al
ready or may hereafter become Ger
man prisoners will most certainly need
all the help they can get to make their
lives bearable.

POULTRY CONVERT
WASTE INTO FOOD

By the United States Department Of
Agriculture)
The central thought to be borne in
mind in considering the growing of
more poultry as war necessity is the
fact that the keeping of poultry is a
means of converting into good food
materials that cannot be utilized by
man, that cannot be eaten by any 9TH
er kinds of stock, and that, without
the poultry, would be absolute waste.
Very clearly, it becomes national as
well as an individual duty to keep
enough poultry to take up all such
waste materials. AS long as fowls
take the bulk of their feed from such
sources and require to be fed on grain
or other garnered feeds only as fin
fishing process, additional food is being
created.
Careful planning must be done, of
course, to insure the utilization Of as
many kinds of waste materials as pos
sible and to avoid overstocking with
any one kind of poultry that would not

An Eighty-Five-Year-0ld
Woman Tells How to Grow
Aged Happily, Gracefully.

At the age of eighty-fve Elizabeth
Cady Stanton wrote on the subject of
growing old easily, happily and grace
fully:
Il attribute my vigorous OLD age in
part to advantageous circumstances"
she said, ''in part to happy, hopeful
temperament, keen sense of humor,
sympathies for all my fellow beings
and a deep interest in all the vital
questions of the hour.

characters do not possess the neces-

Food alue Of Fish
Extensive Use Recommended by
Department Of Agriculture

Further evidence that fish deserves
a place in every diet was obtained
from recent series of digestion expert
ments in the United States depart
ment of agriculture. These tests fur
nished scientific proof that fish, which
has always been reckoned as val
liable food, is very completely util-
tzed in the body.
In the experiments Boston mackerel,
butterfish, salmon and grayfsh-a va
riety not generally used in this coun-
try-were made into ''fish loaves" and
served as a basis of simple mixed
diet to young men Of healthy appe-
titles.
Both the protein and the fat of the
fish were well utilized. Following are
the percentages of protein digested
Boston mackerel, e3.1 per cent; but
terfish, 91.9 per cent; grayfish, 92.8
per cent; and salmon, 93.2 per cent.
The percentages of fat digested were
found to be: Boston mackerel, 95.2
per cent; butterfish, 1914 per cent !;
grayfish, 94.3 per cent; salmon, 93.7
per cent.
In addition to the fish loaf, the diet
included potatoes, crackers, fruit, SUI
gar, and tea or coffee On the aver
age the subjects each day ate 44O
grams of Boston mackerel, All grams
of butterfish, 40 grams of grayfish, or
355 grams of salmon, indicating that
in every case the fish was eaten with
relish.
The department recently has con-
cluded an investigation Of the COM
mercial freezing and storing Of fish,
and bulletin on that subject says
that this method of preserving fish will
hold them for many months in the con-
dition in which they were received, but
will not counterfeit deterioration due
to previous heating or mishanaling.
Chemical analysis shows no significant
changes in frozen fish held for q
months-much longer than would be
necessary or profitable in storing fish
commercially.

But it was not quick enough. Before

down from somewhere and grabbed it.
There was squeak and a fiutter Of

pie on the sidewalk. Then the hawk
with its prey flew down Commercial

And fell as red meteor when the

The souls that made of earth's dark

The Maid of France shall ride again,
grave captains at her side again.
And Nelson's spirit on the wave shall
call to victory.

Still hold aloft the deathless rose,
