ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Corn, when it is just ripening and
passing through the dough stage into
the more hardened condition, II fed
to chickens causes a loose condition
of the bowels, and If no other food
is given, the birds are forced to eat
this kind of feed and digestive trOu-
bles will follow.
The flock in its ranging about the
farm at this time of year may. I'M
beknown to you, get some Of this
corn, and may show the symptoms at
present. The first indications should
be a warning, and the birds, If neces-
sary, should be confined. If q good
ration is fed, however, twice per day
that is, morning and night, and In
sufficient quantities., the birds Will
not eat enough to do them any harm.
Either one of the above methods will
help to keep the flock out Of trouble
of this kind. The easiest way Is to
give them sufficient hard grain morn
ing and night to satisfy their appe-
tiles. ~. &.'..v

No Cross of Gold Found
When Lake in Moscow Was
Drained to Find Treasure.

If all the lakes in the world dried
up, what would we find in their beds?
The question is raised through a
recent allusion to Lake Semlevo, in
Moscow, which for q, century was said
to contain cross Of pure gold Is feet
in height. Napoleon-s0 the story ran
tried to carry1t away with him as a
war trophy, but, when disaster came
upon him, lost it in the lake.
About seven years ago, relates a
writer in Answers, the lake was actu-
ally drained, but no cross was found,
although the bed was scattered with
other relics CT Napoleon's retreat-re-
mains of carts, horses, uniforms, etc.
=. There are many similar stories from
other parts. In the depth Of q South
American lake over $4,000, 900 worth of
gold Is said to have been thrown by
Peruvian priests when fleeing from the
Spaniards, and the bed of the Danube
is the supposed hiding place of Attila's
wealth. ,..lL :, gy.......
Attila ordered that on his death the
Danube should be temporarily divert
ed from it's course and that he should
be buried under the river bed with his
enormous fortune. This was done
And after the river bed had been d.
verted and then brought back again
to it's original channel, the slaves who
had performed the work were killed,
in order that the secret of the location
should never be revealed. ....

"a father at eighty-four- such is the
recent record of Mr.. Jackson, a north
country farmer, says London Tit-Bits.
Men more patriarchal still have fig

Robert Louis Stevenson's .
/ Advice to Class Of Girls

Robert Louis Stevenson was once
called upon to address Sunday
school class of young girls. He told
them the parable Of the talents, and
then went on to say that there were
three talents every one possessed and
ought to make us of. Tongues that
they must use to cheer and make
happy all around them; faces that
they must keep bright as new shil-
lings, so that they might shine like
lamps in their homes; and hands that
must be kept employed In useful work
cheerfully DONE" Very good advice In
these war days for all of US, whatever
our age or sex.-Exchange.

Endless are the definitions of humor,

Price of Clothing and the
Supply of Wool Since Under
.s Control of the Government

Somewhat in contrast to repeated
declarations that WOODEN clothes will
be scarce Is an official announcement
from the war industries board, which
says that the government control Of
wool and woolens has reached q stage
(which makes possible the assurance
to cloth mills and to clothing manufac-
turers, tObbers and retailers that wool
will be equitably distributed to meet
both government and civilian require
ments. The price will be regulated to
assure fair and reasonable profit to
the industry. but rnnge Of prices will
not be permitted which win allow abb
normal profits with the consequent un-
justifiable hardship to the consuming
public" It Is declared that the pres
ent speculative movement in cloth and
clothing win undoubtedly compel def
mite penalizing action II persisted in.
Especially does the statement insist
that there are ample stocks Of WOOL
ems and no cause for imitation. No
dealer should try to buy beyond his
present needs, it is asserted, because
lAcLS 10 uO Ic4oOA AOI IT, AAAS SISuAA>
icant announcement is made: There
is no official warrant for statements or
rumors to the effect that 1t viii soon
be impossible to buy wo6lens or WOOL
en- clothing sufficient to meet actual re-
quirements Of the civilian population"
All of which ought to bring relief to
the people. One Of the reasons for an
advance in clothing for both men and
women is the higher price of findings.
Tailors cannot make clothes as cheap
" as they could a year or so ago, but
there seems no reason for the rumor
that wooden clothing is about of the
market, and that greatly increased
prices are necessary for fall and next
spring.-Indianapolis News.

country's Interests Put First.

Declaring against strikes as .inimical
to the success of the nation in war,
delegates of unions affiliated with the
Chicago Building Trades council voted
to keep the peace for the duration OF
the war.
Resolutions were passed declaring
that the strikes are usually the result
Of questions Of jurisdictional disputes
between local unions, and cOndemning
such disputes as detrimental to build
ing operations.
The resolutions were adopted by a
virtually unanimous vote. Ninety per
cent of the delegates representing the
great majority of the $4,000 men en-
ployed in the building trades, signed
the peace agreement. The other 10 per
cent asked to be recorded as not vOt-
ing, wishing to refer the question to a
vote of their locals, although per-
sonally indorsing the resolutions.
