treasure he had. Thinking that it must be gold
and silver and that they not getting their
fair share, some of them secretly united the
silver cord and there let loose all the winds at
once. The winds whirled the ships away from
their course. far, far away, SO far that the
sailors could not tell where they were.
Of course, the men were sorry for what they
had done, but it was too late. So they sailed
on, very sad at heart
At last they came to the island Of Circe, the
daughter of the Sun, whose bright hair was
like sunlight itself. She was sorceress with
many magic powers, but with the voice of
mortal woman.
Odysseus and his men landed on the shore
of Circe's island in silence. For two days and
two nights they rested, for they had been
through many hardships. On the third day
Odysseus, taking his sword and his spear.
went inland in the hope of finding some men.
From a high hill he saw Circe's house with
smoke going up from the chimney, but no other
signs that any one lived on the island
On the way back to his ship he saw a stag
which was about to drink from stream. He
wounded it and took it to his men for food.

in trying to reload his rifle. He carried other
cartridges in the rght-hand trousers pocket,
but he was not able to reach them. His right
arm was useless and the fingers of his left,
lacerated by the mugger's bite, refused to take
hold.
He had, however, three Of the five shells the
rifle held still in his gun.
The rifle lay half under him, it's stock pro
truding from beneath his body. With the elbow
of his left arm he was able to work it out.
But at that moment the hope of preserving
his life broke like a bubble in the sun ght..
He could not lift the gun to swing and aim it
at shape in the darkness. With his mutt
lated hands he could not cock the strong
springed hammer And if he could do both
these things with his fumbling, bleeding, lacer-
ated fingers, his right hand could not be made
to pull the trigger. Warwick Sahib knew at
last just where he stood.
Two things remained, however, that he might
do One to call and continue to call as
long as life lasted in his body. More than once
at distance, at least for a short period of
time, by shouts alone. In that interlude per-
haps help might come from the village. The
second thing was almost as impossible as rails

gods he might achieve it, He wanted to find

gasped for the first time. He had not found
the knife.
But at that instant the gasp gave way to
a whispered oath Of wonder Some living
creature was running lightly down the trail
toward him--soft, light feet that came with
amazing swiftness. For once in his life War
wick did not know where he stood. He tried
to probe into the darkness with his tired
eyes.
"Here l amp he called. The tiger, start
ing to creep forward once more, halted at
the voice. A small, straight figure sped like
an arrow out Of the thickets and halted at
his side.
"Who in\the world?' he asked in the YER
nacular.
ut is Little Shikara,' tremulous voice
answered. Except for the tremor he could not
keep from his tone he spoke as one man to
another.
Warwick knew at once that Little Shikara
was not yet aware of the presence of the tiger,
fifty feet distant in the shadows. But he knew
nothing else. The whole situation was beyond
his ken.
But his instincts were manly and true.
Then run speedily, little one" he whispered,
back to the village. There is danger here in
the dark"
Little Shikara tried to speak, and he swal-
lowed painfully. A lump had come in his
throat that at first would not let him talk.
"Nay, Protector of the Poor!" he answered.
Tt came alone. And II am thy servant"
Warwck's heart bounded Not since his
youth had left him to a gray world had his
strong heart leaped in just this way before.
'Merciful God." he whispered in English.
"Has a child come to save me?" Then he
whipped again into the vernacular and spoke
swiftly for no further seconds were to be
wasted Little Shikara, have you ever fired
a gum"

him fresh clothes and brought him food. Circe
had the swine brought in, and with wave of
her wand changed them back into men. They
were glad, indeed, to be rescued.
In the mean time the other company which
had been left at the ships with Euryoehus
feared that their leader had met with the same
fate as the who had been turned into
swine. Odysseus went down to the ships him
self and told them to come with him to the
house Of Circe. Eurylochus was fearful, but
he and the men had to obey.
When they came to Circe's house they found
their comrades sitting at a banquet table.
Eurylochus and the men sat down. Odysseus

you meant to kill her. She will be afraid and
ask you to be her friend. Make her promise

Hermes vanished and Odysseus, with the
magic herb in his possession, went on to the
house of Circe.
The sorceress welcomed him more heartily
than she had his men. She made him sit down
in silver chair and she sat on footstool at
his feet Then she mixed the magic drink for
him in golden cup When he had drunk this

Odysseus drew his sword and rushed at her

Still he threatened her until she promised
never to try to work her magic on him again

Eggs are moving in reduced guam

LAYING RATION IS BEST FOR
POULTRY RANGE

Lexington, Ky, June 14.-Best re-
suits in feeding growing poultry
stock on range are obtained by CIV
ing the birds a regular laying ration.
according to results obtained by the
Kentucky Agricultural Experiment
Station. The ration fed was COM
posed of a grain and mash feed, the
mash being made up of 100 pounds
of bran, 100 pounds of shorts, 100
pounds Of cornmeal, 100 pounds of
ground oats and 100 pounds of tank
age. The grain feed was made up of
300 pounds of cracked corn and 200
pounds of wheat. The mash was
kept before the chicks at all times in
a self-feeder thus allowing them to
eat whenever they were hungry and
saving much time and trouble. The
grain was fed both night and morn
ing. In addition to the dry mash
which was given to the birds, oyster
shell, grit and coarse ground bone
were always available.

LIMBERNECK AND ITS TREAT
MENT

The condition as limberneck in
chickens is in reality not a disease,
but a symptom Of several diseases
which are characterized by paralysis
of the muscles of the neck, making it
impossible for the bird to raise its
head from the ground. This condi-
ton. the bureau of animal industry
of the United States Department OF
Agriculture says, is due TO the alb
sorption Of poison from the intes-
tines, which act upon the nervous sys-
tenn and causes paralysis.
Limberneck is generally associated
with indigestion of the eating of
moldy grain or putrid meat or with
intestinal worms. The best treat
ment is to give a full dose of purga-
tive medicine-that Is. salts OF castor
oil. Often the bird will be cured with
in "a hours. In case they are not
better within three OF four days, 1t
is not advisable to keep them.
Be sure and hunt for the dead
flesh that's hid around somewhere
for the chickens to get. Keep all the
grounds clean and clear of dead ami
mails. Burn OF bury all dead bodies.

HARVEST HAY CROP BEFORE
MATURED
Palatability and Digestibility Re-
duced When Allowed to Stand
Too Long In Field
By e. J. Kinney
Kentucky Experiment Station

The maturing hay crops,
such as alfalfa, clover and orchard
grass, often are particularly difficult
to save in good condition because the
weather at the time these crops ma
ture frequently is unfavorable for
curing hay. In addition, with nearly
all these crops the period during
which the crop may be harvested and
yet make hay of good quality is
short; in fact, this is true Of most
hay plants.
1t is not generally understood how
greatly the palatability and digesti-
bility of hay may be reduced by al
lowing il to become too mature be-
fore harvesting. Orchard grass, il
cut just at the time it is fully headed
out, makes hay of most excellent
quality. II allowed to stand even a
week longer, the hay is not nearly so
good, while over-ripe orchard grass
hay is not as good as straw.
Much Of the orchard grass hay Of
fered for sale is made from grass that
has been allowed to stand too long.
The same thing is true Of red top
hay. Red top must be cut very
shortly after blooming or the hay is
unpalatable, yet good red top hay is
scarcely inferior to timothy. Alfalfa
deteriorates rapidly after the new
shoots start from the crown, and in
addition the yield Of the next crop is
greatly reduced if harvesting is de-
layed until the new shoots get tall
enough TO be clipped off by the
mower.
In Kentucky four cuttings Of alfal-
"a may be obtained in a season il the
harvesting is done promptly. A lit
tie delaying cutting, however, will
reduce the number Of cuttings TO
three.

HAY CROP SHORT

From all indications the hay crop
will be short this year. Farmers
should sow plenty of cowpeas or soy
beans. There's only one variety of
soy bean to sow this late. The Hab-
erlandt, if seeded within the next ten
days, will mature before frost. A
cane or sorghum crop will help out
if hay is short. Let millet be the
last resort.
The following article by Mr.. Kin
ney on Harvesting Hay Crop is worth
reading. Read it and see if it is
sound doctrine.
