CHICKENS NEED PLENTY
OF GREEN FEED

Clemson College, December-If the
best results are to be obtained with
poultry, they must be furnished with
plentiful supply of green feed.
Where fowls have unlimited range on
a farm they will secure green feed
during the spring and summer, but
during the winter it must be supplied
for them, say the poultry specialists.
The question of how to supply
the best feed at the least cost is one
that each poultry keeper must decide
largely for himself. 1t will probably
make but little difference what kind
of green feed is supplied provided it
is relished by the fowls. Cabbages,
turnips, beets, potatoes, etc., are suit
able for this purpose. The larger roots
and the cabbages may be suspended
by means of a wire or string or they
may be placed on the floor, in which
case it would be well to split the tur-
nips or beets lengthwise with large
knife. Potatoes AND turnips should be
fed cooked. The mangel is an excel
lent root for feeding raw.
Cut clover, soaked in boiling wa
ter fed alone or with. mash, is good.
Clover meal and ground alfalfa make
very good feeds for this purpose.
Where the, fowls are yarded and not
enough green feed is furnished by
the yards, a small patch of clover,
alfalfa, or rape may ..e sown. Any
one of these, if frequently moved,
will furnish great quantity of
green feed in a form relished l5y
the fowls. Canada field peas may
also be sown for, this purpose and
when fed in a tender, crisp condi-
ton are eaten readily. Rye is a
good crop for late fall and early
spring, for twill germinate and
grow in very cold weather. AS a
general thing, fowls should have
once a day all the green feed they
will eat.

GERMANY'S WOMEN
PROTEST YIELDING
OF 100000 COWS
Send Strong Letter Protesting tt
French Women-Claim it Will
Mean Deaths of Thousands
OF Children.

Berlin, Dec. 21.-Surrender to the
allies of 100000 milch cows, which
have been demanded under the terms
of the Versailles treaty, would have
disasterous results in Germany, says
letter to the women of France from
committee of German women. Con-
t;nued deprivation Of the German peo-
PIE of the milk supply represented by
these cows would result in weakening
public stamina, and individual resist
ance and therefore, operate to reduce
the ability of Germany to fulfill
treaty obligations thru necessary pro-
duction, it is said.
GAS women are defenders of the
rights of Children" the letter declares
1--WE embrace with equal sympathy
suffering children of all nations. Our
sympathy goes out in fullest meas
ure to children in the devastated re-
gions in France, where it appears to
US to be urgent that help should be
granted as speedily as possible.
"On the other hand we see the need
of every part of Germany is so great
that further reduction in the milk
supply would be equivalent to the
the death sentence for hundreds of
thousands of children. Instead of the
twenty billion liters of milk which
Germany produced annually in peace
times, the country is now producing
only s,SOO,OOO,OOO."

UNEMPLOYMENT IN
ENGLAND SERIOUS

London, Dec. 23.-Extreme anxi-
ETY. is felt by the British people over
conditions of unemployment, and in
some quarters the opinion is>held
that the crisis/is more serious than
any of its predecessors.
This pessimism is reflec. d in edi-
torial comment relative to govern
ment proposals to relieve distress,
and there is fretful tone in some
somment which further emphasizes
forebodings over the prospects of
the coming winter. It is predicted
that; in spite Of all said that may be
devised; the next few months may
bring privations to many thou
sands. Premier Lloyd George out
lined his plan for relieving the un-
employed in the house of commons
yesterday, and newspapers give him
credit for doing whatever is possible
by resorting to make. shifts which
are admitted by palliatives. Some
newspapers apologize for the gov
ernment's plan, contending that it
Is better than the efforts of all pre-
vious governments to meet critical
conditions in the labor world. On
the other hand, many newspapers
attack the cabinet for doing too lit
tie, too mech, or the wrong thing.

SoMBER SIGHS THE SAVANNAH!
(By D. Magill, Atlanta, Ga.)

Aooe HtoSSA uoJj <APhA IVA, @oSN'
at 5 o'clock in the afternoon,~ a
mournful event bereaved the people
of Abbeville County and especially
the residents of Lowndesville and vi
cinity.
In crossing Savannah river while
the stream was raging in flood, the
boat on which they were crossing,
went down with eleven young people
and all drowned except one young
man, Thomas Bradshaw, who swan
ashore with his life. The fated young
people were: Inez Manning, Annie
Manning, Robert Manning, sisters
and brother, Albert Sutherland, Lucy
Bradshaw, Allie Mae Bradshaw, sis
ters; Alice Mechine, Charlie Mechine,
sister and brother; Lester Masters
and his wife, of recent marriage.
Great river of pathetic gloom!
Oh rushing waves of frightful surge |!
Thy sorrow chants its fearful dirge -
For all these illstarred victims doom.
Great river of historic waves,
From mountain rill of tender flow
To rushing, angry torrents grow,
And speed it's victims to their graves.
Sad stream of sorrow whose fell flow,
In fearful, melancholy days,
We sing our sad and grievous lays
o calm our cruel, raging woe.
Savannah, in dark mem'ries clad,
Has often brought us grief and fears,
But none exceeding these in tears,
Oh wreck of raging waves so mad!
Sad river flow gentle and calm
As Seaward you pass>by their graves,
Molest not, with turbulant waves,
Our sorrowing chant of a psalm.
The birds of song will pass away,
Like sweet wild flowers on the hills,
Or blossoms by the rhythmic rills,
But these dear souls will last for aye.
Oh, torn away in youthful bloom,
The rose droops sadly by each grave,
And violets, in fragrant wave,
Perfume the air in tender gloom.
Fly, angels, hither from the sky!
There is no sadder spot of ground,
In deep Savannah's valley found
Than where these Easter victims lie.
Fond mothers! be this solace thine;
That healing hope will Heav'n impart,
And anguish Of a mothers heart
Be soothed with melody divine.
How sadly do the lilies weep,
For Charlie, where his life was spent
The flow'rs will bloom his monument
Where all his fated comrades sleep.
Heartbroken parents, dismal, sore,
Oh home, sweet home, where they did
dwell!
We send the rose, the immortelle,
And Heaven, joy, forevermore.

CITY IS DOMINIC
HOLIDAY ATTIRE
General Display More Elaborate
and Extensive Than Ever
Before

The evidences of Christmas are
more apparent daily when a peep
into the display windows of Rich
1nond merchants is taken, and the
progressive spirit which has been
prevailing for some time in the
way Of building Improvement is
very apparent.
The general displays this sea-
son, depicting the holiday greet
ings were never more elaborate
nor extensive, and the window
decorations have not been COM
pleted.' Some of them are finish
ished and represents work of I'M
usual art and taste upon the part
of those arranging the displays.
There are few things lacking in
the way of foodstuffs, provisions
generally and everything from
the farm tool, in the way Of use
fulness, to the glittering tassCl or
the miniature Christmas tree, is III
evidence. The store windows Of
the city were never mere attrac
tive, and indicate the interest ia
ken in the coming holidays which
promise to be very extensively
observed.
1t is estimated that three times
the amount of expense usually
gone to. has already been expend
ed in arrangement in window dis
plays, and merchants are vieino
with one another III the effort to
gain patronage. There are many
new and improved buildings this
season which admit of more at
.tractive displays of wares being
made, and this fact has been tax
en- cognizance of by the up-to-
date merchant. Prices, general
~ considered, are not unusual
