THE HEN is QUEEN

When man drags out of his trous-
ers pocket handful of pennies,
nickels and dimes we are apt to ejac-
ulate contmptuously:
"Chicken feed!"
In other words we look on Chicken
feed" as pretty small stuff. But do
you know that the Chicken feed" fed
to poultry in 1919 returned food pro-
ducts to this nation valued at $780,
100000? Almost a billion and half
dollars farm value) worth of food
and wealth, and thee bulk of it from
the farm and village yard
Just little comparison: The big
gest manufacturing company in the
country is the United States Steel
corporation. It employs a half mill
ion men every day in the year It's
steel mills, rolling mills and blast
furnaces hundreds of them-are the
industrial show places of the land.
Yet the total value of it's products in
1919 was only a trifle greater than
the poultry products, or S1,45oooo,-
600.
Something to think about truly.
And remember that, in the main, poul-
try is only a by-product of the farm,
or the side-interest Of the good house
wife and her children in the rural
town or city suburb. What if every
body who owned poultry doubled his
attention? The product would pretty
nearly equal the value of our entire
corn crop before the war.

WIVES STILL PROPERTY

A British jurist turned the pages
in the book of human progress to a
musty past when he ruled, the other
pay that wives still virtually are the
absolute property" of their husbands.
That was the accepted doctrine once.
The married woman's property was
her husband's;his property was his
own, to dispose of he willed. More
over, he was privileged, under the
English law to seize her earnings if
he desired, and to punish her if she
resisted. az
The world has progressed long
way past that conception of woman's
position-but, wait moment. Has
it's progress been SO great, with the
exception of the "new countries" like
the United States, Canada and Aus
tralia?
In red Russia today, woman has
no "hold" on her husband. He can
cast her off with little or no formali-
ty if he elects to do so, and can re-
marry any other woman without any
thing more than an agreement" on
their part to live together. The orig
nal woman has practically no rights.
She is married to a man by her par
ents without her consent, frequently
without previously having seen him.
Her position in her own household is
inferior to that of her first own born
born male child. She is the burden
bearer; the taker of orders; the SER
want of the family.
Today, in England, according to the
ruling Of the court mentioned above
man may sue for alienation of his
wife's affections; but wife cannot
sue on the same ground. It seems
that a wife does not have the same
claim to her husbands services that
he has to hers, and damages in such
cases are assessed solely on the basis
Of the loss of her services by the hus.
band. Seattle Times.

UneaIlant oldtimers.

An old papyrus text, recently un-
aarthed in Egypt, shows a strong bias
against women. After citing long
series of unfortunate happenings in
history, 1t bluntly charges all of them
directly to the conduct and influence
OF woman. Then it goes on to say that
Ii she have wealth for her ally in
wickedness, the evil is double. The
last line of the fragment is not entire
ly legible, but appears to be of the
same general tenor.

The Girl in Business.

The big difference between young
men and women in business is that
the former know they have many
,ears of work ahead. while the latter
often feel that their sojourn- in the
business world is to be temporary.
Only to the extent that a girl consid-
ers her work as lifetime affair, and
,cordingly devotes her whole heart
and soul to it, can she succeed in rIs-
ing above the rank and file.--Forbes
