"Traaedy" and "COmedvo

AT first tragedies were brought on
the stage as means Of reminding men
Of the things which happen to them,
and that it is according to nature for
things TO happen SO. and that If thou
art delighted with what is shown on
the stage, thou shouldst not be tr0u-
bled with that which takes place on
the larger stage. After tragedy, the
old comedy was introduced which had
a magisterial freedom Of speech, and
by its very plainness Of speaking was
useful in reminding men to beware Of
insolence.- Marcus Aurelius

POULTRY MANURE
HAS HIGH VALUE

Poultry manure is the most valu-
able of all farm manures if properly
preserved, states A. R. Whitson Of the
soils department, College of Agricul-
ture.
Poultry manure contains thirty
two pounds of nitrogen, thirty-five
pounds of phosphoric acid, and eigh-
teen pounds of potash as compared
with mixed COW and horse manure
which contains ten pounds of nitro
gen, FIVE pounds of phosphoric acid
and twelve pounds of potash a ton.
He estimates from this that poultry
manure has little more than three
times the value Of horse and COW
manure.
To preserve poultry manure, he
recommends, keep it dry by adding
read dust, peat, or dry muck. Also
supplement it with acid phosphate
by mixing ten pounds of poultry man
ure, six pounds of road dust, and
four pounds of acid phosphate. The
acid phosphate not only adds value
to the manure, but keeps it from
losing any nitrogen in the form Of
ammonia. In using poultry manure
il should be put on in small applica-
ton as large amounts would be vast
ed by teaching as it is readily deeom-
posed.

Valuable Knowledge

Girl scouts headquarters in New
York announce that almost 1000 girl
scouts passed tests as cooks last year.
Contrary to the usual opinion, not
camping but home-making is the chief
girl scout activity" says the national
director. Cooking heads the list Of
the 50 things for which merit badges
were awarded, and 3,764 girls passed
the examination under a domestic
science teacher. That means that
nearly 1000 girls know among other
things how to build and regulate
fire in coal or wood stove, how to
select meat and prepare it for boiling,
roasting or stewing and how to plan
the menus for a family, using left
overs for at least three dishes."-
