which has been rising steadily dur

The average annual output Of one

about 1OOOO0.O0O. .....,
Ostensibly the 1918 increase In our
smallest of coins was made necessary
by the call for small change to pay
war taxes on goods sold at retail:
Really, all sorts of economic causes
are behind the rising demand for PEN
MES. Rising prices Of provisions and
other staples have gone constantly
into odd figures. ,......

Victor Hugo's Prophecy Of

.@ Comment When It Appeared

In 1880 Victor Hugo, who was then
In Paris. wrote the following remark
able words, which appeared in the
French newspapers at that time and
excited considerable comment. It
was then not thought likely that his
vision would in any way be realized,
at least for long time to come. as
1t was then not SO many years after
the Franco-Prussian war. In his usual
mastery style he wrote; .,-.
"Then France will suddenly arouse
herself. She will become formidable.
She will regain Alsace-Lorraine. Is
it enough? mol no! She will cap
ture- listen-Treves, Mainz, Cologne,
Coblenz. And We shall hear France
cry: The clock strikes my hour.
Germany, hear me! Am I thine en-
envy? No. I am thy sister. I have
taken all from thee, I return an to
thee upon one condition; that we
shall no longer be a divided people :
that we shall be one united family,
one republic. I will demolish my fort
resses, thou. thine-my vendetta 10

Rhine, mine and thine. 7

HINTS FOR
POULTRY GROWERS

The poultry grower who has not yet
adopted sprouted oats as q part OF the
hens bill of fare, especially during
the winter months, is not only deprlv-
Ing his hens of feed that would be rel
ished and which is most valuable IN
feeding for egg production. but is also
overlooking one Of his best opportu'
mites to save on the cost of feeding.
Town folks who keep only small hocks
have been quicker to realize the advan'
tages of feeding sprouted oats than
have farmers, yet the latter are the
ones who should be first to understand
the food value and the results that
might reasonably be expected from
sprouted oats, because the oats sprout-
q, is to the poultryman what the siio
is to the dairyman.>
! A few poultry growers operate their
oats sprouters the year round, they
having found sprouted oats to be an
excellent feed for both laying hens
and growing stock. This can be done
very profitably when the chickens do
not have free range. but is not neces-
sary with the farm flock during that
part Of the year when there Is plenty
of natural green feed. The real advan.
tage in feeding sprouted oats Is that
it provides succulent green feed wnen
none other is available. In the sprout-
ed form, none of the grain is lost or
wasted. The hens eat oil the tender
green sprouts. roots and soft hulls.
