Reservation Offered
BY Senator Hitchcock

The reservation proposed by Senator

break then. puts it this way:
"The United States assumes no
obligation to employ its military or
naval forces or the economic boycott
to preserve the territorial integrity
or political independence of anv
other country under the provisions
of Article X, or to employ the mill
tary or naval forces of The United
States under any article of the treaty
Tor any purpose, unless in any par
tlcnlar case The Congress- which. un-
der the Constitution, has the sole
power to declare war or authorize
the employment OF the military or
naval forces of the United States,
snail by act or joint resolution so
provide. Nothing herein shall be
deemed to impair the obligation in

Right of Interpretation
Held Exclusive to u. S,

"Thc United States has always in
tcrpreted the Monroe Doctrine alone
1t is our policy. No one else has evei
attempted to interpret it and it is
something in my judgment which ought
never 10 be permitted even by the most
remote implication. If we could strike
out that phrase now after ii had been
accepted by the Senate. it would lead
TO Il direct inference that we left that
question open. The right to interpret
the Monroe Doctrine. pertaining to the
United States alone, must never be
open to question:"
Three reservations on Article X an
pearcd before the bipartisan commit
tee in the weeks Of negotiation. They
are the Taft, Lodge and Hitchcock res
ervations. The Lodge reservation
reads:
THE United States assumes no
obligation to preserve the territorial
integrity or political independence
Of any other country, or to interfere
IN controversies between nations
whether members of the league or
not under the provisions Of Art-
Gle X, or to employ the military or

DIGGING INTO HISTORY

Recent deciphering of a clay tablet which may add a thousand years to the span of recorded history-for it con tains code of laws said to antedate that of Hammurabf by a milleniub- is another reminder that archeologists are finding stranger true stories than fiction can reveal" says a bulletin of the National Geographic Society.
 "The pick and the spade of the ex- plorer have resulted in astounding rev elations,' writes Albert T. Clay, who has deciphered some of the most fam ous of the documents.
 "Above all else, one of the greatest surprises is that the earliest peoples instead of being barbarous or uncultur- ed, were civilized and possessed cul- ture of high order.
 Several ancient libraries and im- mense archives have been found. Years ago the literary library of Ashurba- nipal (66S-626 B. @ was discovered at Nineveh

Do come in the month Marchesvan. Keep well always for my sake
 "The Code of Hammurabi. written about 2,000 B. C.. upon a large and somewhat irregular stele, is perhaps the most important monument of an- tiQuity that has been found for a cen tury. It is the product of civiliza- tion of a high order. In codifying his laws, Hammurabi arranged them in a definite and logical order, based upon accepted judicial decisions.
 Tn no better way is it possible to become acquainted with the everyday life of the ancient Babylonian than by a careful study of the Hammurabi Code.
 The code recognizes three grades of society-the aristocrat, or gentleman, or pleb. and the slave. Among the ranks of the first mentioned were the professional men, the officers, and the tradesmen. The second class included the freedman who had been a slave.
 It has been the custom with most peoples in a large part of the ancient, as well as the modern, Orient to base a betrothal upon an agreement of the man or his parents to pay a sum of money to the girls father. In Baby lonia this bride money" together with the gift of the father and other gifts, formed the marriage portion which

was given to the bride.
 Tn case the girls father rejected the suitor after the contract had been made, he was required to re<rn double the amount of the bride price. The betrothals took place usually when the parties were young, and as a rule the enga gements were made by the parents. If the father died before all the sons were married, when the estate was divided the sums needed for those, not having wives ere de- ducted before the distribution was was made.
 "A marriage contract was necessary to make marriage legal. In some of them peculiar conditions were made. such of the bride being required to wait upon the mother-in law, or even upon another wife. If it was stipulat- ed that man should not take second wife, the woman could secure divorce in case her husband broke the agree ment

 It is far better to prevent disease by proper care and attention than to attempt to cure, a bird after it is sick Therefore it is important 10 watch the flock closely at all times for any signs of disease, so in case an outbreak occurs it may be checked at once. Prevention is always better than cure, and all those who wish to succeed with poultry should give their birds such good care and keep their houses so well cleaned and disinfected that both fowls and chicks will keep hardy and vigorous.
 Some diseases may be treated success fully, while others of more serious na- ture usually prove fatal. If only one or two birds of a flock become sick ii is usually advisable to kill them immediate ly (unless they are choice specirnens) and burn or bury the carcS sses, say poultry specialists in the United States depart ment of agriculture. If the birds are kept and an attempt is made to doctor or cure them the disease may prove contagious and spread throughout the entire flock.

FEEDING POULTRY
IN HOT WEATHER

hUI M r h poultry keeping, as in any other bus mess, the aim is to keep down expenses. . If they almost or totally equal the re- turns, then, no matter how productive the flock is, there is little profit for its owner.
 One of the largest items of expense which the man or woman raising poultry today has is the grain that is fed the birds Every kind of cereal is expensive n comparison with former days, especial iy corn and wheat, which are usually considered the best poultry grains As the quantity of the grain consumed enters into the cost of producing eggs quite as well as the price of the grain, experiments have been conducted on the government poultry farm to determine the amount of feed required to produce dozen eggs.
 The general purpose bullets used in this experiment ate in a year an average of ST pounds of feed per dozen eggs pro ducsd, and the yearling general purpose birds ate s.e pounds. The Leghorn pull lets ate 4.S pounds and the yearlings 5.o pounds
 From these figures 1t is seen that the general purpose bullet ate 1.9 pounds more feed in producing dozen eggs than the Leghorn bullet The difference in- creases very rapidly with the age of the stock, the general purpose yearlings con- suming Al pounds more feed per dozen eggs than the Leghom yearlings AS the price of grains varies greatly in different sections, only the grain consumed, ana not the cost of it is given in the accom- panying table.
 Naturally the grain consumed per dozen eggs will depend very materially upon LoTr successfully the hens are fed and managed. In these feeding experiments m the United States department of agri- culture poultry farm several different re7s of birds were used in each class to -slirriuate error as far as possible.

PICK WELL DRAINED sPoT
 FOR THE POULTRY HOUSE

Poultry can be raised successfully on any we'll drained soil. A light loam which will grow good grass is well adapted for this purpose. while very light sandy soil through which the water teaches freely will stand more intensive poultry condi- tions, but most of the green feed for the fowls kept or such soil will have to be purchased.
 A heavy clay or adobe soil is not well adapted to poultry raising, as such land does not drain readily and it is much more difficult to keep the stock healthy, poultry specialists on the government poultry farm have
 Long, stationary houses or the inten- sive system save steps, but it. is easier to keep the birds healthy and to reproduce the stock under the colony system, where the birds are allowed the free range. Breeding stock, and especially growing chickens, should have an abundance of range, while hens used solely for the production of market eggs may be kept on a very small area with good results.
 The colony house system necessitates placing the houses (holding about 100 hens) from 200 to 25o feet apart, so that the stock will not kill the grass. The colony system may be adapted to severe winter conditions by drawing the colony houses together in a convenient place at the beginning of winter, thus reducing the labor during these months.
