Jerusalem Blooming Again
Like a Rose, Says Writer
In Letter to London Times

The Rose Of Jericho, writes a Jeru-
Times, when one buys it in the shops,
is a queer little withered ball of shriv-
eled fibers, which the inexperienced
think fit only for the rubbish heap.
But put it in water and the thing re-
wives, turns freshly green, and begins
to sprout anew with life that has been
always dormant but never dead. This
strange plant is symbolical of Jerusa-
lem. The more rapid recovery from
conditions Of misery was delayed by
the maneuvers of certain SPECTATORS
whose object was to hinder the British
advance into Palestine, bringing with
it vivifying tide of honest Egyptian
notes and silver.
Seeming profit, rascally spectators
went about among the more ignorant,
cunningly representing Egyptian notes
to be only worth in gold the value of
discredited Turkish paper, and they
thus succeeded in buying up guam
tity at the average price of IS. Cd.
Such chicanery caused great distress
to the mass of the people and cOnsid-
cradle inconvenience to the military
administration by shaking public con-
fidence in the Egyptian bank notes.
But the good names of Britain and
of Egypt are helping things to right
themselves, and trade is now being
done in goods coming from Egypt
daily. Jerusalem had become like the
Rose of Jericho, which had withered
and was seemingly dead. To US is it
given to watch the Holy City revive
and renew her youth.

CHEAPER POULTRY
RATIONS
prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The demand for wheat for human
consumption necessitates that it be
used as economically and sparingly
as possible for feeding animals and
chickens. Some lust as good" ra-
tons which contain no wheat have
been tried out in egg laying tests by
the United States department of ag-
riculture, and excellent results have
been secured. Thirty laying hens, to
which wheatleSs rations were fed,
produced in the two years covered
by the test on an average of 1913
eggs for the pullet year, and 121 eggs
during the second year. This COM
pares favorably with egg yields Sc
cured on other ratiOns containing
wheat, and therefore more expensive.
The wheatless ration is also being
tried on pen of Buff OrpingtOn pull
lets and during the past ten months
they have laid on an average of 111.S
eggs, a very good yield for this Pc
riod.
The wheatless ration used was as
follows:
Scratch mixture pounds of
cracked corn, one pound of oats.
Dry Mash-Three pounds of corn
meal, one pound of beef scrap.
The scratch mixture was fed spar
ingly, the hens being permitted to eat
about as much of it as of the dry
mash. During the two-year test the
hens were provided with free range
where they could pick a variety of
green feed. Leghorn pullets were
used and it was found that 1t took
4.6 pounds of feed to produce a dozen
eggs. Fifty-two pounds of grain was
consumed by each pullet annually,
and of this amount twenty-six pounds
was from the scratch mixture. When
wheat is omitted from the ration it is
advisable to feed more beef scrap.
Laying hens should have a good sup
ply of protein, and the additional beef
scrap supplies this essential in one of
the cheapest forms.
Cotton seed meal used to replace
half the beef scrap in the mash has
given good results on the government
poultry farm and has had no bad eff
feet on the quality of the eggs. Where
cotton seed meal replaced all the beef
scrap the results were unsatisfactory
both in number and quality OF eggs.
Mussel meal has not proven as good
a substitute for beef scrap as fish
meal, which, to the amount of 25 per
cent of the mash, has affected the
flavor or the taste of the eggs.

Tighter and Longer Skirts,
Cause Order for Lower Steps
On the Spokane Street Cars

Score another for the women. This
time they have made two big trans
portation companies see the error of
their way. They have compelled
tardy recognition of the fact that the
length of a skirt offers the only proper
rule for regulating the height of street
car steps.
The women of Spokane did it. They
were confronted by fashions latest
edict of longer, tighter skirts, and
street car steps twenty inches from
the ground. Something had to give
way. Obviously fashions decree
could not be changed, hence the at
tack on the high steps.
But the street car companies could
not see it. The same steps had been
In use for years and it would cost
money to make the change. Protests
