Feeding the Farm Flock.
And others of the

Clemson College, Jan. S1.-ln
feeding the farm flock the right kind
of food is important if it is to be q
paying proposition. IF hens do not
get sufficient or proper feed they can
not be expected to give satisfactory
and profitable results. A complicated
ration is not necessary. The aim in
feeding the hens should be to use, so
far as possible, the grains that are
grown on the farm or that are avail
able in the immediate neighborhood.
One of the most successful methods
of feeding is to give a light feed of
grains in the morning and feed of the
same material at night, the night feed
consisting of about as much as the
hens will clean up.
In addition a dry mash should be
provided where the hens can have
access to it continuously. When con-
siderable quantities of waste food
are available for the hens to pick up
from the field, the amount of grain
fed may be cut down.
One of the most common mistakes
in feeding farm poultry is the fail
ure to provide animal food in some
form. Of course during the spring
and summer, when quantities Of in
sects are available, they may supply
the hens wants in this regard, but
during those parts of the year when
insects are not available or are
scarce, it becomes necessary to pro-
We'd animal food. Milk, usually fed
as skim milk or butter-milk, pro-
vides an excellent source of animaf
food, but when milk is not available
the hens should have beef scrap or
meat scrap. While this product is
high in price, it is economical, and
should be included in the hens ra-
tions because of the increased pro-
,duc.ion that will result.
Corn Meal and Meat Scrap.
The highest egg production in
poultry feeding tests conducted by
the United States Department of
Agriculture were obtained from a
pen receiving mash composed of a
pounds of bran, pounds middlings,
26 pounds meat scrap and &c pounds
corn meal.
This ration has been one of the
best mashes, giving consistent high
production over period of several
years and is not distinctly different
from the mash used in the wheatless
ration, which has also given very
good production.
During the winter it is necessary
to provide some form of green or
succulent feed, such as mangels, cab
bage, clover, alfalfa or sprouted oats.

BogaIusa Tigers Win
from Columbia Stars

The Columbia Stars of New Or
leans, batting for the Leland Giants,
were easy picking for the Bogalusa
Tigers at the Colored Athletic Park
Sunday afternoon, and after knock
ing one pitcher out of the box in the
first and another in the fourth, the
locals stopped the game in the
seventh with the score 9 to 1, because
they were too tired to bat any more.
The visitors made their first and
only tally in the opening stanza, and
after that were helpless before the
hurting of Franklin and the defense
of his teammates.
The Tigers batted around in the
first scoring three men, and in the
fourth scored three out of six men
to the bat. Jones, the former Boga-
Qusa Paper Company hurler, who
pitched for the visitors, was knocked
from the box, and even with a fresh
pitcher the slaughter continued until
the locals were forced to stop because
of their own eXertiOns.
The Stars came to Bogalusa highly
recommended as one of the leading
colored teams and the Tigers were as
badly disappointed as the fans at the
miserable showing they made.

An all-mlneral substitute for wood,
composed Of Portland cement, sand
and asbestos fiber, has been found
to serve excellently as a base for walls,
floors, etc, as, being cellular d struc-
ture, it takes nails easily and holds
them firmly. The new material, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine, has the
advantages over wood Of being fire
and warpproOf. This latter quality
makes it especially suitable for use as
a subfooring when composition floors
are used, as cracking Of the latter 10
said to be eliminated. AS it has the
property of holding nails well, interior
wood trimming and shingles may be
nailed directly to the new base mate
rial. It is also said to possess good
Insulating qualities.

Little Sorrel Horse
Kisses Capt. Lindsey

1t was a little sorrel, not yet &C.
quainted with the ways of cavalry
horsemen, who, Sunday morning,
turned his head at an opportune mo-
ment and kissed Captain Lindsey
lovingly just west of his port side
lamp, and gave Sergeant-Instructor
Jenkins an opportunity to return the
compliments Of the season rendered
him by his captain several weeks ago,
when the sergeant while attempting
to ride one of the new cavalry broncs
found the earth to his liking and suf-
fered broken arm.
Sunday Captain Lindsey had
gathered his more experienced horse
men together and was in the act of
mounting the sorrel-one of the
"meanest" of the lot-when the bronze
turned his head sharply, catching the
captain on the side of the face with
the side of the bride, cutting deep
cash.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"slNcERE."

A T FIRST glance the English
"A word sincere" would ap-
, pear to have little connection
with ''wax''-but, by reason Of
a custom prevalent among
Roman builders, that Is precise
ly where it came from.
In ancient Rome workmen fire.
quently took short cuts and
skImped their labors, it being a
common practice for marble
workers to apply a piece of wax
to a Clipped part of the stone
in order to conceal the defect
made by too hasty or too care
less stroke. When the sun
melted the wax, the defect in
the statue or column or pedestal
would be at once apparent,
Meanwhile, however, the laborer
had been paid and the purchaser
would find himself with a dam
aged article on his hands.
In time, the words "sine
cera" without wax began to
appear in building agreements,
thus STIMULATING that the work
would be carried out by skilled
wOrkmen and completed without
the use Of camoufage. Gradu-
ally the term book on a broader
meaning and was applied to per-
sons who were believed to be
free from defects, who were
genuine and who might be
safely trusted. In English,
therefore, all that Is expressed
In the one word sincere"

LYRICS
THE LITTLE GODS.
By DOUGLAS MAILoCH

rs MAN all error, God all truth7
4 I sometimes wonder. Why doei
God
Put noble hearts in coats uncOuth
And silken raiment on a clod2
Rags for the innocent to wear
And for the jade the satin shawl
I see such error everywhere
sometimes wonder, after all.
And yet l do not wonder long:
This tOpsy-turvy is not His
The world Of right, the world Of wrong,
The same today and ever is.
II sin wears satin, virtue rags,
'Tis not Gods fault-it is because
We sit upon our money-bags
And dare to change Gods very laws,
Our little time we play the lord,
Forgetting God, ourselves are gods,
And virtue punish, sin reward,
While judgment slumbers, justice
mods.
And then some day a mighty hand
Shall sweep US from our stolen
throne
No little gods shall rule the land,
But God shall rule, and men atone.
The little gods are many-lust,
Extravaganza and idleness,
And greed that bathes itself in dust,
And fiippant speech, immodest dress (;
The little gods shall rule awhile
Their little women, little men
And then the Only God will smile
And set the world to rights again

Federal aid for the construction Of

The extent to which federal aid has
been applied to the trails varies in
the different states. Naturally, the
Western states are using much more
Of the federal appointments in de-
velOping roads of this character than
the Eastern states. This is due to
the fact that the routes in the East
eFn states already had been improved
to a large extent before the roads
were selected by the pathfnders. This
was not true in the West, where long
stretches Of the selected roads were
still in an unimproved condition when
they were designated.
Nevada leads In its use Of federal
funds ON roads of this character.
Eighty-three per cent of it's entire
mileage of approved federal-aid roads
lies on one or the other Of the trails
which cross the states. On these
roads Nevada will spend 80 per cent
of the federal money which has been
granted to her.
Indiana is a close second, with 50
per cent Of its entire federal-aid mile
Rge and SO per cent Of It's money aid
