A PROPHECY BY TENNYsoN

The poet Tennyson entered the
realm of prophecy in his poem Lock
sley Half QS42) and made the fol
lowing prediction, which is being full
filled by intrepid soldiers of the sky:
"For ! dipped into the future, far as
human eyes could see,
Saw the vision of the world and all
the wonders yet to be;
Heard the heavens fill with ahouting,
and there rained a CHASTITY dew,
From the nations nayies, graphing
inthe central blue;
Far along the worldwide whisper of
the south wind rushing warm,
With the standards of the peoples,
plunging through the thunder storm"
-r~E%
When with Gods help, the curse of
autoeracy is destroyed, and representa-
tives of the nations meet the consum-
mate "a worldwide peace, there will
be fulfilled the closing lines of this
remarkable poem:
Till the war drum throbbed no longer,
and the battle flags were furled
In the parliament of man, the fedora
ton of the world"
And there will shine forth regener-
ated world constructed along higher

The number of people in Ameri-
ca is increasing rapidly. creating
q growing demand for meat. In
addition to this there is a great
foreign demand. Last year near.
ly half a billion pounds of beef
and beef products were exported.
If beef animals enough could be
raised we could sell many times
as much meat abroad.
Big Demand for Beet.
The wholesale slaughter of cat.
tie in Europe, In a desperate at
tempt to stay the hand of famine,
has presented this country with the
most wonderful opportunity for
profitable beef production that has
ever existed. During the period Of
reconstruction in. Europe there
will be a demand for millions and

practically to raise twenty healthy
chickens from these forty eggs. A
chicken is marketable as a small
broiler when eight weeks old. and
can be sold as a large broiler when
twelve weeks old. 1t reaches ma
turity when from five to eight
months old.
Pork, mutton and beef are needed
in large quantities in other parts Of
the world, where the shortage OF
meat is so acute. Poultry and eggs
cannot be shipped abroad to fill this
demand for meat, but they can be
used as a substitute for other kinds
of meat to such an extent that
more pork, mutton and beef can be
released for shipment overseas.
Big Industry.
The poultry industry in America

The world is facing the most
acute meat shortage in history. The
shortage of cattle, sheep and hogs
has reached nearly 6O,OOO,O00 ami
mails. In the face of this dimin.

has arisen an increased demand. So
the problem has become one of
quick production, and, with the ex-
ception Of the hog and the sheep,
the only producer of meat that can
respond Is the hen.
