"The egg supply can be kept mp in

department of a prominent agricul-
tural college.
"These conditions include the fac
tors Of housing and feeding. The
house for the chickens should be
roomy, and furnish plenty Of fresh
air without drafts. Meat scraps or
milk should be fed to take the place
Of bugs and worms which are 20 east

oats can take the place Of grass and
other green feeds. Grains should be
scattered in straw so that the chick

Anhinga Plant in BraziI's
Rivers Used to Make Paper

In the soft beds of mud that line so
many Of Brazil's sluggish rivers, the
plant anhlnga grows so profusely that
an estimated total Of 100000 tons
could be exported annually. The
anhinga Is now known as the raw
material from which cellulose is OBJ
tanned for the manufacture Of linen

that the fibers may be transformed
chemically into an artificial cotton

To Build Home Cheapiy,

The way to own q home at a mimi

terial already on the site--earth. for
instance.
The requisite earth may be had for
the digging. and there IL nothing to
pay for transportation. In England this
idea Is being taken up. with the expec-
tation that the building Of rammed
earth dwelling houses on an extensive
scale will help Importantly to solve the
housing problem, bricks being scarce
and expensive.
There are in European countries
many such buildings that date actually
from prehistoric times. In parts OF
France and Spain this simplest Of all
methods Of house construction has
long been practiced. and recently 1t
has been adopted with great success
I'm South Africa and other British col
onies.
Planks are set up on edge to form
mold. and the space between Is filled
with earth, which Is then rammed as
tight as possible. The ramming, OF
course, can be done much more advan-
tageously and cheaply by machine;
likewise the digging.

Small Cone Shaped Asia

In Asia Minor, south Of the Black
sea and north of the Taurus noun
tains, Is q region known In former
times as Cappadocia, which anciently
was q province of the Persian king
dom. 1t was famous for its horses.
Later the invading Romans found
there an agricultural population whose
able fortresses that frowned from
nearby hilltops. These the conquerors
destroyed.
1t Is lofty and rugged plateau,

ing has produced an extraordinary re-
suit. the whole landscape being thickly
sprinkled with small cone shaped hills.
The people Of that district use them
extensively for domiciliary purposes.
1t Is an easy matter with pickax and
shovel to dig out the interior Of one
Of the cones and convert 1t into a COM
Portable dwelling. This is done usual
,ly In such wise as to leave floors in
tact, some of the larger houses having
as man as nine stories. Windows

Many Of the houses seem to have
been occupied since prehistoric times.
Some Of them are known to have been
tenanted by Christian monks in the
fourth century. and 1t is believed by
Psychologists that the "ant hill dwell
lings" Of Cappadocia were inhabited
by the Hittites $500 years ago.

Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take .
tablespoonful of the tea, put q cup OF
boiling water upon it, pour through .

1t is the most effective way to break
a cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion.
Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking

Try it the next time you suffer from

The Result.


Senator Warren G. Harding has
been chosen to succeed Woodrow
Wilson as President of the United
States.
The decisive majority by which
the Republican candidate was elect
ed leaves no room for doubling the
desire on the part of the people for
a change in administration.
Gov. James M. Cox made a single
handed fight against Overwhelming
odds and his defeat is not of per-
sonal nature. A victory for the DEM
ocratic candidate under the circum-
stances would have been the greatest
personal victory recorded in Ameri-
can political annals.
The Tennessean believes the best
interests of the country would have
been served by the continuance OF
the Democratic party in power, but
graciously submits to the decision of
the majority.
Senator Harding may have some
innate qualities which have not been
apparent in his public life so far. He
has displayed decided trend to go
along with the crowd, to follow the
dictates of the Republican leadership
in the Senate.
With his elevation to the Presi-
dency another Harding may be de-
veloped. A surrender of the execu-
tive office to a coterie of Senators
will be resented. The country is in
no mood for trifiing. We have be-
fore us four years of stupendous
work. 1t will require man of cour-
age and backbone to direct us thru
the reconstruction period.
The Tennessean cannot accept the
result of the election as repudia-
ton of President Wilson's peace eff
forts nor of the League of Nations.
We believe the bulk of the Republic
can party as we'll as of the Demo-
Gratis favor our entrance into the
league with any reservations that
may be needed.
Without making any attempt to
analyze the re5ult of the election at
this time, it may be said without
qualification that the great MAORI
ties rolled up in centers of popula-
ton where the electorate is more
than 10 per cent of foreign origin
was more than G protest vote-it was
q deliberate and well organized at
tempt to punish the Democratic ad-
ministrstion for having entered the
war on the side of the Allies. The
desertion of voters of German, Italian
and Greek lineage from the Demo-
cratic banner was evident in the
Congressional races of tive years ago
and was emphasized Tuesday.
Senator Harding has pledged him
self to a separate peace with Ger
many. If an effort is made to carry
this promise into execution in view
of the definite pledge of this country
to the nations associated with us
during the war there will be day
of reckoning.
Senator Harding has been chosen
to direct the affairs of the nation dur
ing it's most critical period. He
alone may elect to be recorded among
the great or become second Buch-
anan.-Nashville Tennessean.
