POULTRY
FACTS.
EXPERIMENTS SHOW
HIGH FEED VALUES

The results OF the feeding expert
ments conducted during the past
three years by the poultry department
Of the Idaho Agricultural college show
that the ration containing peameal
and sour skim milk was outstanding In
making hens lay. A ration In which
the dry mash contained 20 per cent
peameaI and unlimited sour skim milk
gave higher percentage egg production,
more eggs per pullet. cheaper eggs and
greater profits over feed cost than any
OF the other rations In the experiment,
This ration made the hens lay q large
number OF large eggs.
Peas are available or may be grown
In nearly every part Of Idaho. The
expense Of grinding them into pea.
meal and placing them In the. dry
mash Is small.
During the present year, the pen in
the feeding experiment getting pea
meal and sour skim milk gave an nv-
erage egg production OF 4e.0 per cent.
Eggs were produced the year around
at feed cost OF IA centa The pull
let's averaged 1912 eggs each. con-
snmed 80 pounds OF grain. 2l.e pounds
Of dry mash and 1882 pounds Of sour
akin milk each and made a profit over
feed cost Of $2.33 each. Forty-four
per cent Of the eggs laid by this pen
weighed "a to - ounces to the dozen.
30 per cent from % TO "a ounces, and
only II per cent below % ounces.
When the results OF this pen are COM
pared to those Of one not getting the
peameal or sour skim milk, they show
that the peameal and sour skim milk
pen laid over three times the total
number OF eggs, over seven times us
many marketable eggs, or eggs over
y ounces per dozen, gave $l.67 great
sr profit over feed cost per pullet and
produced eggs at rs cents cheaper
ICED cost per dozen.

TO the certainty OF their convictiod
that he whom they had seen taken
from the cross. whose body had been
laid in Joseph's tomb. survived as a
real and living presence In their midst.
This faith brought together the fright
ened and detected group Of disciples
In the spirit Of confident rejoicing; II
carried them through ardu0us labor
and bitter persecution IL won TO them
increasing adherenta; II triumphed
over every dlficulty. over all opposi-
ton. II became the power of the life
eternal, giving new Significance 10 all
life, new meaning to all the lessons
they had learned from the Masters
lips.
We may build this faith upon the
empty tomb. but. in fact, II had deeper
foundation than that II went back
behind the tomb and the cross TO the
living Christ as they had known Him.
To have known Jesus was to have
known that there is spiritual reality
which transeends the material and the
temporal This consciousness had
been Hulckened In the souls OF His fol-
lowers The Jealous hatred Of His
foes. the brutal cross Of Roman power,
the sealed tomb--these were the
evanescent the iliusory means where
by Il was stupidity sought 70 destroy
the eternal reality OF His love, His
wisdom, His soaring faith IN God And
the effort had failed. How could II
be otherwise7 How can II ever be
otherwlhe7
And the meaning Of Hla life was
Just fhis--that the reality Ia the life
Of all men is the possibility Of becom-
ing like Him. Of expressing beauty
and goodness and truth. OF living now
and always IN the power Of the life |
eternal.
II is the revival Of that resurrection
faith which the world needs today, 8
faith in the reality Of the continuing T

The Easter festival, as we now cele-
brate It. says Edgar Lucien Larxin
director, Mount Lowe observatory
was unknown in the early Christian
centuries. The first Christians, being
largely derived from the Jewish
church, continued for long to observe
the Passover, as well as other ancient
ceremonies.
But the Passover very gradually be
came transformed to Easter when
Jesus was substituted for the paschG
lamb Of Israel while in Egypt Then
a difference arose as to the time OF
celebrating between the Christians OF
Hebrew and Gentle descent This
contention existed for centuries.
Those Of Jewish descent held that
the day of the death OF Jesus should
be the date Of the ending Of the paschai
fast. which. In Hebrew rites, always
was on the fourteenth day OF the moon
in the evening; therefore the Bubse-
Quent. or Easter festival. would follow
irrespective OF the day OF the week. 8
But the Christians who had been
Gentfles and strangers 20 Jewish Gus
toms wanted the first day Of the week,
Or Sunday, to be the first day Of the
resurrection festival
Thus the Friday preceding would be
observed as the date OF the crucifixiOn
without paying any attention to the
day OF the month, the fast continuing
until midnight of Saturday
This memorable dispute was one Of
the most noted In the history of man.
kind and was caused by the Irregulari-
ties of the time OF full moon in refer
ence to the year.
The Hebrew sacred year, Exodus
IL o began, as ours ought to, at the
instant of the vernal equinox. This
time is subject to slight changes due
40 the astron0mical fact Of perturba- /
lions Of the motion OF all bodies in the
solar SYSTEM
But the variations are as nothing
compared with the wide variations In |
times OF fun moon.
The Hebrews based their years on
lunar changes, while we now find the
exact length OF the year by watching
the sun and stars with exceeding ac-
curacy. Confusion always harassed
the ancient Hebrews IN chronology,
because they based the beginning OF
each month at nrst sight of the new
moon.
Then. by applying the ancient jew
Ish rules TO Easter, the effect was that
the dates Of the crucinxion and resur-
rection, fwo days supposed TO be flxed
Cor all time. varied.
The trouble Is due 70 the fact that
the neon revolvex around the earth IN
~ days hours 4S minutes 115k sec
onds. and the earth around the sun Il
IN 81 668. 140 Beconds Therefore the
moon makes 1a88eg revolutions to the

Kent County Levy Court ApprOpriates
$1,000 to Towns for Upkeep of the
CLAYTON to Get $4,000

The Kent County Levy Court has
appropriated seven thousand dollars
among the incorporated towns of the
county for the maintenance of dirt
roads running through the towns. The
money was divided among the towns
as follows: Bowers Beach, S238.64;
Camden, $368.44; Cheswold, S94.49;
Clayton, $402.49; Dover, $1,65O.82;
Pennington, $114.2O; FELTON,, S253.46;
Frederica, $39766; Harrington, $780,
SO; Hartly, none; Houston, $218.77;
KentOn, none; Leipsic, $12396; Little
Creek, $500; Magnolia, $63.39; Mil
ford, $520.2O; Smyrna, S94138; Viola,
$164.04; Woodside, $112.72; Wyoming,
$423.65. The appropriation of seven
thousand dollars is made to the incor-
pOrated towns each year for the pur-
pose of assisting them in bearing the
expense of maintaining the dirt roads
that run through these towns. The
payment is made according to the
number of miles running through the
town. j. B. Raughley appeared be-
fore the Levy Court with a petition
asking for an improved road from
Marydel to the Sixth District line. The
members of the Levy Court promised
Mr.. Raughley that they would view
the road and render their decision
later. The Levy Court decided to
borrow $4,000 from the Farmers
Bank to tide over the general fund
until money is received from taxes.
Interest is to be paid at the rate of
four and one-half per cent. On mo-
tiOn of Commissioner Moore five hun
dred dollars was ordered transferred
from the general fund to the good
road fund Of the Tenth Representa-
tive District. This is Mr.. Moores
home District which previously bor-
rowed five hundred dollars. A com
mittee from the Legislature appeared
before the Levy Court to learn what
action they would take towards build
ing the road over the marsh near
Mahon's light house. The Levy Court
agreed to have the County Engineer
view the road and make an estimate
of the cost and then make report to
the committee.

TAX DOGS TO PROTECT GAME
Bill RecOmmitted in Delaware Senate,
Sponsored by John p. LeFevre

A motion by Senator Simonton to
recOmmit a Senate bill designed to
control dogs running at large, was
passed by the Senate, Friday, after
its provisions had been explained by
Colonel John P. LeFevre, head of the
State Fish and Game Commission.
The bill provides for the licensing and
tagging of all dogs; prohibits them
from running at large at certain sea-
sons of the year, March l to October
l, would prevent dogs from running
at large at night at any time, and
would permit the impounding or kill
ing of dogs which commit depreda-
tions on livestock or attack human
beings. 1t provides a tax Of from 81
to 81, but will probably be amended
insofar as it affects Wilmington. A
tax of $10.50 would be imposed on
owners of kennels where not more
than II dogs are kept, and SIS where
more than this number are kept. The
measure is designed to make enforce
able existing laws as a protection to
wild game, sheep, poultry and other
live stock, and as a protection to hu-
man beings against attacks by dogs
and the spread of rabies. 1t is felt
the law, as amended, will tend to elm
mate sOcalled mongrels and stray
dogs. Owners of dogs destroying
live stock would be required to pay
damages, and violations of the law
would bring penalties of from $5 to
$50 or 10 days Imprisonment in lieu
of payment of the fine.

APPLE ORCHARD INSPECTION
BEING MADE THROUGH KENT
DUE VIGILANCE AS TO APPEAR
ANCE OF DISEASES TO TREES
Kent County Agent Wilson Assisted
by DR.. Manns of the University of
Delaware, Are Making Rounds


Kent County Agent Russell E. Will
son in company with DR.. J. F. Adams
of the University Of Delaware spent
the early part of last week inspecting
a number of the commercial apple
and peach orchards in this county
with a view to determining the pre-
valence of aphis and other insects in
furious to the fruit trees at this sea-
son Of the year. 1t is the plan of the
County Agent and the Plant Path
Ologist to spend at least one day each
week visiting the orchards in the
county and discussing insect and dis
ease control measures with the differ
ent growers. In this manner it is
hoped that the majority of the orch
ardists in Kent county will have the
opportunity to come into more direct
contact with the agricultural extern
sion department and to also have the
results Of the experimental work
brought to them in a practical way.
The spray programs which are pre-
pared each year by the department
of plant pathology of the University
of Delaware are formulated largely
through the results of experimental
Investigations supplemented by num-
erous observations made in the or
chards throughout the state. 1t is
therefore of vital Importance that
field trips be taken from time to time
during the entire growing season for
the purpose of collecting data with
reference to the various methods Of
controlling injurious insects and dis
eases that affect our fruit crops. In
addition to these special field trips
the County Agent also devOtes several
days each month working on all phas-
es of the horticultural problems per-
tanning to this section of the country,
with special reference to the orchard
fruits and grapes which are the lead
ing horticultural crops in this county.
Demonstrations on the use of COM
mercial fertilizers in apple orchards,
and the proper applications of spray
material for the control of black rot
in grapes are being featured in Kent
county, and every effort is being made
by the extension department to help
the fruit growers solve some of their
problems in the production of a bet
ter grade of fruit for the markets.
