The first accredited mention of salt
appears in the first books of Moses,
where it is referred to as an essential
part in many of the sacrifices of the
Jews. The most familiar Bible refer
ence to salt is in Genesis tx, 20, in
which Lots wife was turned into a
pillar of that valuable commodity
probably to the great enjoyment of
the goats, sheep and cattle of that
district.
The next most familiar Bible refer
ence to salt is that in Matthew v, 10
eff the salt has lost his SAVIOR, where
with shall it be salted?" Other ref
erences in the New Testament are
Mark tx, 1880, and COlOssians iv, 6.
Homer, 800 years before Christ,
speaks of salt in the Greek sacrificial
rites; no sacrifice was complete with
out it. Herodotus, who was born in
4S4 B. c., says the Egyptians ate
sailed food, including raw fish that
was first stepped in brine and then
sun-dried. They must have been ex-

Tailor's Good Purchase

Mankato is the Minnesota town that
was bought seventy-five years ago by
the first tailor in st. Paul for small
barrel of pork and some salt. This
tailor was Parsons King Johnson and
his purchase was made from Chief
Sleepy Eye. The site on which Man.
kato stands is rich in historical in
terest, says the Kansas City Star. In
dian mounds have shown that savages
dweIt there 500 years ago, burning,
glazing md decorating pottery, weav-
ing cloth and raising corn. Mankatos
first regular minister rode all the way
from Wabash, Ind, on horseback in
1854 to open his church there. The
first Scandinavians, led by Rev. John
Tidland and John Randall. arrived in
1853, and a German colony from st.
Charles, Mo-, arrived In a covered
wagon the same year. In 1855 a Welsh
colony from Wisconsin swelled the
population.

Quick Cure for Obesity

AS Falstaff, Sir Herbert Tree wore
a rubber suit, which was blown up like
a bicycle tire for the enormous size
necessary for Falstaff, writes Con-
stance Collier in "Harlequinade: The
Story of My Life" 1t was contin-
uous duel between Ellen Terry and
Herbert Tree as to who should get
the better of the other. They would
think out elaborate jokes. But one
day the joke went too far. Ellen
Terry took hatpin and stuck 1t into
Trees enormous belly at the beginning
of long scene. Falstaff slowly began
to debate, and when the scene ended
he came off with his clothes hanging
in festoons around him. Ellen Terry
was nowhere to be seen. She had
locked herself in her dressing room.

Best Results Obtained
in Matching Chickens

Best results are usually obtained
when the birds for the pullet flock
are Matched as near the same date
as possible. But how can this be
brought about when incubators of
small capacity are used, or the
Matching and brooding are done by
broody hens? Poultrymen of Uni
versity Farm, st. Paul, Mimi, say
that practical method is to fill the
small incubators with eggs from the
breeding pens and as the hens become
brOody transfer the fertile eggs found
at the first Gambling from the incu-
bators to the hens and allow them to
finish the hatch. The incubators can
then be filled again after being dis
infected. The hens will complete the
incubation in about the same time
and a large number of chicks will
thus be practically the same age. This
work must be done very carefully
or there will be losses. A machine Of
10O-egg capacity, with broody hens
to hatch, will bring off chicks from
400 fertile eggs within a period of q
days, say poultry specialists.

PL\\IL Try
BIG ESSENTIAL
FOR HEN FLOCK
Violet Rays Foes of Ricketts,
and Other Ills.

Violet RAYS in direct sunshine aid In
the assimilation of calcium and are
foes of ricketts, and other ills to which
flesh Is heir.
While this familiar story TO many
poultry keepers 1t is not generally
known that not all sunlight has equal
value-that. in fact, winter sunshine
in northern ATTITUDES has few or no
violet rays. the factor that cures or
prevents the ricketts,.
Discussing the practice of some
poultry men of shooting their fiocks at
this time of year into bright sunshine.
Frederick B. HUT, poultry specialist
of the agricultural extension service
of the University of Minnesota, says:
''This may be of value to stock kept
for breeding but does not give the
birds much if any more of the anti
ricketts, factor than they were getting
inside the hen house. Experiments
have shown that in latitudes even
farther south than Minnesota the
amount of ultra violet rays of the
most valuable wave length is too small
in winter to be of much Importance.
After the first of March the value
of the sunlight increases rapidly and
by April and May it has ricketts,
banishing potency about eight times
as great as in January.
"The merits of various glass substf-
tutes have been widely advertised the
last few years. While it is quite true
that many of these will transmit, when
new, more ultra violet rays than win
dow glass, the fact remains that even
the best of them cannot transmit
such rays when there are none to
transmit. Neither will the breeding
flock get its full requirement of the
valuable factor if turned outdoors on
the brightest days in February.
'But an ample supply of this factor
is a prime essential if good matches
are to be obtained in the early spring.
The only safe plan is to feed good
brand of cod liver oil at the rate of
2 per cent in the mash. By April 1,
at which time the sun is again giving
full value for the money, feeding Of
the oil may be safely discontinued 3"

Best Calcium Sources
for the Poultry Flock

In a recent test conducted by the
poultry husbandry department of Iowa
State college, Ames, it was found that
best results were secured when the
limestone used as grit for the poul-
try flock was very hard, practically
pure calcium carbonate and low in
magnesium. Softer limestone did not
give such results as did the hard lime
stone.
Oyster shell, clam shell and lime
stone were fed in the experiment and
1t was found that the amount of the
grit material consumed was directly
proportional to the number of eggs
laid by the hens on test. The expert
ment indicated that the calcium res
quirements of the hens were fully met
by limestone, as well as by the other
materials.

Test Incubator

Run the incubator few days be.
fore putting the eggs into it. This will
permit perfect regulation and reduce
the hazards that accompany the regu-
lation of the machine when the eggs
are incubating. Do not become alarmed
when the temperature drops just att
er the eggs are put in. The cool eggs
absorb heat and lower the temporal
ture of the incubator. If you turn
the lamp high at this time in all like
lihood you will cook the eggs before
you get it regulated again.

How Many Eggs?

The only way anyone can tell how
many eggs hen lays in year is
to trapnest Ler every day in the year.
Because of the enormous amount of
labor involved, it is not practicable
for the average person to trapnest.
The various culling tests intelligent
ly applied are of value in eliminating
the boarders. An occasional mistake
is not serious. breeder, however,
cannot afford to guess; he must know
the production and breeding of his
hens.

Way to Keep Eggs

The best way to keep eggs fol-
Matching is to pack them small end
down in an egg case and turn them
every day if kept more than a week
A simple way to do this is to finish
filling the case with filters, put the top
on and turn the case on one side. The
next day put it back upright and the
following day turn it on the other
side. Some people keep eggs on their
sides in box. If this plan is fol-
lowed they should be turned every
day.

CHICAGO, May PA department store for merchants, the Merchan- disc Mart, where they may shop for the shopper, will be opened May l.
 Its 20 floors and tower, occupy ing two blocks above the Chicago and Northwestern railroad tracks, make up one of the worlds largest buildings, so far as floor space is oofcerned.
 The gigantic structure, looking down, upon the backward flowing Chicago river, is the first of the ciSy's air-tight buildings. Special legislation and particular action by the state commerce commis- sion were necessary before the cais- sons could be sunk.
 Manufacturers and wholesalers of virtually all department store items, 600 tenants, will have space in the building. Accommodations include a merchants club in the tower. At the top of the tower is convention hall. The second floor is an exhibition hall.
 On the 18th and 20th floors vii, be radio broadcasting studios.
 The builders of the structure claim the 2,500 craftsm n whe worked on the mart constitute the largest army of workers concen- trated on one structural job. In tht building were used 60,000 tons ol steel, 29,OO000O bricks, 40 miles oi plumbing. 15 passenger elevators and $500 windows.
 The Mart stands on the site ol the old Northwestern passenger depot. 4

 In 1920, the district embraced the town of Seward, Hope, Port Graham and Seldovia villages in addition to Kenai and Ninilchik villages and the scattered residents which now comprise the district. The other places are now listed in another area.
 The districts population is divided as follows: Kenai village 285, as compared to 332 in 1920. Ninilchik village 124 as compared to 87; and scattered 58.
