Farm Reminders

POULTRY: take the rooster away
from the summer laying flock He
is no help to heavy or continued lay
ing, but is a great bother. The hens
viii lay at least as well without him,
and the eggs will keep longer, either
packed or marketed fresh.
Green feed for laying hens and
little chicks is daily need. If cut
into short bits less is wasc-d. Any
green such as grass, lawn clippings,
garden remnants, and palatable
weeds, is good. Feed on clean
ground or on boards.
DAIRY: Green feed is essential to
heavy protracted, economical milk
flow, and the silO is essential to a
year-rOnnd green feed supply at min
imum cost. A big silo boom is on
in many parts Of Oregon, and pro-
gressiye, successful farmers are

Chains Slip and Craft Drops Back.
The hoists did not work right. the

it's old position. After some time the
rescuers succeeded in passing a new
chain under the submarine, which
slowly raised by the stern so that the
bow would be tipped as little AZ pos

not re-established.
The hours passed in extreme an
guish, the victims believing that the
attempts to save them were useless,
and those making the attempts think
Ing 1t was already too late to rescue
their brave companions alive. But
the work was continued with energy,
and at length the stern came to the
surface.
That vas the most solemn moment
Of the whole operation. Few believed
that any of the crew would still be
alive and that all they had done was
to raise out of the sea a coffin contain

Then when it was thought that only

found that two men were missing.
Captain Del Solar descended again
into the submarine and found a ma.
chinist still calking and a fireman still
at the pump. Neither of the two had
received orders to come out and they
remained at their posts.
The Gillian submarine H-3 was des-
ignated with the number E-12 In the

the sailors that because it had borne
this number 1t was certain to come to
harm.

Just al sOon as the officers and sail

Each man worked at random In the

At five o'clock in the afternoon. six
