BEST FEED FOR LAYING HENS
Composition of Ration Rather Than
Method Of Feeding Influences
Egg Production.

Experiments in the methods of feed
ing laying hens show that the cOmpO-
sitiOn Of the ration rather than the
method of feeding has the greater in
fuence upon egg production. The
tests were made at the Ohio expert
ment station.
Rations for laying hens should con-
tain from 10 to II per cent of meat
scrap or a good grade of dgested
tankage, or their equivalent in skim
milk.
The wet mash has some disadvan-
tages, it is found. as it requires some
time each day to prepare and give the
mash and may cause digestive disturb
ances in the fowls if too much is fed.
A satisfactory ration consists in
feeding grain mixture of corn, three
parts; oats, one part, by weight, and
for the dry mash ration, ground corn
seven parts, bran 3 parts, meat scrap
five parts. About twice as much grain
as mash should be consumed.

PRESERVING EGGS IN BRINE
Good After Eight Months if Simple
Measures Are Taken--Lime Good
as Water Glass.

Eggs laid during April and May are
of better quality for preserving than
are those laid later in the summer
One pound of air slaked lime added
to cooled, boiled water is equally as
good a preservative for eggs as water
glass.
Only clean, fresh eggs with sound
shells should be put down." Use an
earthen jar. Stir the lime thoroughly
into the water and drop the eggs in as
gathered. Some lime settles to the
bottom of the jar but does no harm.
Two or three inches of the solution
should cover the eggs to allow for
evaporation. Keep in cool place,
preferably in a cellar
Eggs preserved by this method may
be safely kept for eight months. When
ready for use, remove only the eggs
that are necessary.

from the underwriting project, he
thought, than from his character.
He had deposited with Cullen all he
owned, except for his private belong
ings, his runabOut, and a trivial sum
for current expenses. The runabOut
he would offer for sale; it meant a few
hundred dollars more to be divided
among his contributors. Beyond that,
there was nothing else he could re-
store to them.
He didn't believe thot Harmon
would ever carry out his promised be-
trayal; not that he had faith in Har-
mons code Of ethics, but because he
trusted Harmon's horse sense. If Hill
lard were alone to be accused, Har-
mon would gain nothing and might, If
he offered any adverse testimony, even
implicate himself. Indeed, if Harmon

On the eighth day, he Glanced to
meet DR.. Durant by accident in front
of the Physicians building at nigh noon.
Hello, there! You're just in time"
said the Doctor, cheerfully. I'm GO
ing over to the University club for
lunch. Won't you join me? l want
your advice. I'm the worst business
man in the world-yOu probably know
that by this time. And l trust my
friends for friendship; but when l

you qualify on both counts. Come

billiard was flattered, but not de-
ceived.
I'm not sure that my advice is
worth anything half as expensive as a
luncheon, Doctor"
The older man took him by the arm,
and impelled him across the street.
THAT depends on your appetite" he
laughed. Come along, and help me
out on a decision I've got to make.
About an investment"
billiard hung back for a moment,
while suspicion dawned on him.
"What sort of investment, Doctor?"
he queried.

Doctor, seductively. And we'll talk
it over later. But first of all" He

billiard was almost too grateful to
speak; the Doctors strategem was pat
ent, but in all Chivalry the invitation
couldn't be declined. Once inside the
doors of the club, however he became
panicky; for his first sweeping recon-
nossance included half a dozen men
whose late behavior had indicated that
they knew.
The Doctor drew billiard under the
mantle of his own unasSailable posi-
ton, and plowed ahead with the utmost
serenity. He nodded here and there,
he spoke to members right and left he
bowed across the room; always his

to acknowledge man who was under
the Doctors adequate protection. Those
who spoke to the Doctor also spoke to
billiard; there was no way out of it,
and they spoke as casually as they
could. They also nodded to him, and
bowed, but when his back was turned,
they became low-vOiced and commune
cative, and he knew it.

CHAPTER XIII.
weY''

In the colorless days that followed,
Hilliard listlessly set about the order
ing of his final plans. Fortunately,
there were few of them; his mind
would never have been equal to intri-
cate detail.
It was a slight consolation to him to
realize that the city had habit of
judging men by personal rather than
by financial standards; for all it's
pride and wealth, 1t would censure him
more for his wrecked personality than
for whatever money losses he had
caused. He was prepared to endure
that censure; and because he under
stood the provocation behind 1t, he
was all the more eager to aid in the
salvage. There would be more saved

the memory of Dicky Morgan rest in
peace, and to let the brunt of anger
fall on Henry billiard, who was a no.
body from nowhere, with lying face,
a lying tongue, and no claQue to mourn
at his exit.
But then there was Angela's start
ling allegation She had declared
that Everybody" in town knew all
about billiard and Carol. EVERY
body" would have a different opinion.
Carol, and he had failed; and in the
light of Angela's revelation, it was diff
ficut to decide whether Carol herself,
in protesting that she wanted to re-
tain him as friend, had meant that
and nothing more, or that and great
deal more. But no matter what she
had intended to convey, he dared not
go to her again, he dared not see her
and speak to her, for if he lied to her
but he couldn't lie to her now,
and every word of truth would prove
a boomerang. He was trapped; and
although his heart was breaking for
the love he had almost won a second
time, he remained steadfast to the
ideals he had created. If Carol were
to lose him as a sutton, she should new
er know that her first and foremost
sutton had gone TO the devil.
He told himself fiercely there was
one definite and permanent way out
of it. Nobody would then have
cause to gossip about Dicky Morgan
no One-after the first natural flood of
excitement and denunciation-woul
remember very much about Henry
billiard. 1t would save such a deal of
needless trouble; it would save such a
wearisome amount of shame.
But against the pitiless background
of the war, self-destruction as a means
of avoiding personal difficulties, self
caused, seemed curiously repellent-
curiously cheap.
No it was part of his own
grievance that Carol and the others
must grieve, too; he had a dual re-
spOnsbility to society. He had no
right to leave these matters clouded by
any uncertainty of motive. Syracuse
had a right to know the facts; and If
the facts brought pain to those he
loved, why, that was something he
should have thought about in June,
and not in November.
AS he chung comfortless to the last
slipping hours of the reputation he
had so carefully builded he knew that
It wasn't the punishment of the law
that he dreaded, 1t was the ostracism
which would accompany 1t. 1t wasn't
his own shame which gripped him, 1t
was the consciousness of the shame
which would attach to his friends.
And so, for day or two, all his fac
ulties were strung upon the attitude
of the public toward him; he was
watching frantically for the first signs
of adverse demeanor, and bracing him
self for the shock which was unavoid-
ably to come. For secrets will out,
and although he had no reason to ex-
pect Warlng to break his pledge, he
knew that when rumor smolders
among as many as four people, there
comes-there always comes-a mo-
ment in which 1t bursts forth In spon-
taneous combustion.

Divers in Ancient istory.

The earliest mention of diving Is
made by Homer, about $50 B. c., in
the "Iliad," when Patroclus compares
the fall of Hector's charioteer to a
diver diving for oysters; and Thucy-
dldes tells of divers being used to re-
move submarine barriers placed with
the object Of impeding or injuring
the Grecian feet at the siege of SYRIA
cuse. These divers had no apparatus
save stone to carry them quickly to
the bottom and to cling to for the
brief period, about two minutes. they
could stay below. This is called nat
ural diving and is still in use for col
lecting sponges and pearls at Ceylon
and In the Mediterranean.

couldn't deny that the greeting of his
