1T seems to me that II we knew
ourselves better we might have bet
ter opinion Of the world" said Mr..
Cato Ninetails; 'and 1t is quite prob
able that If we knew ourselves bet
ter the world would have a better
opinion Of US. In advising us to
make It our business to know our.
selves, Cervantes warns US that It is
the most difficult lesson in the
world; and it is, for If we would be
frank with ourselves-which we sell
dom are-it isn't often that we want
t know ourselves. Such knowledge
Is likely to give Jolt to our self
esteem, which isn't pleasant. All of
us have limitations, and many Of US
have great limitations, but most of
them we are unconscious of, and the
rest we ignore, when we let the I'm
agination dwell on what we ought to
be and what we could do If the per
.versity of worldly circumstances did
not prevent US.
"The ordinary workaday variety Of
us-that is, most Of us-do not feel
that we could paint a picture, carve
a statue or play violin in a way
that would be acceptable to the dis
eliminating taste of the world; but
in contemplating more practical-and
more neutrality-suspicious. we have
a feeling, which Is easier to assume
than to defend, that If we could get
the job we want, the working Of it
would tend to itself pleasantly and
advantageously enough. It is get
ting Of such a job that sometimes
adds so much to our knowledge Of
ourselves. We may find that it re-
quires a skill and poise that we are
wholly unequal to, and limitations
that we were unconscious Of are re-
vealed to us; but even then we are
inclined to regard such situation
as the amazing exception, and are as
ready as ever to attempt the impos-
sible-for a sufficient consideration.
"Now, If we knew ourselves better,
such embarrassments, and the feel
ing Of resentment they create In Us,
would be avoided, and one Of the re-
suits would be that we should not be
left with a more or less persistent
grudge against the world. Another
would be that we should avoid the

Close Inbreeding Likely i
to Affect Matching Eggs

Close fnbreeding tends to decrease
hatchability of eggs. Continued mat
ing of brother and sister for few
generations often results in eggs that
will not hatch at all. Breeding cam
not be overlooked if good matches are
to be obtained, says Successful Farm
ing. c-..
For the person who desires to pro-
duce good Matching eggs this season
either for hatchery or for home
Matching the best chance for improve
ment is through proper methods Of
feeding and management. The hen
must be well supplied with vitamins.
Vitamfns A, B, D, e, and G are all
necessary in the hens ration If she
IS to lay eggs that will hatch. Vita
minis B and e are likely to be present
in ample quantities in nearly any ra-
ton. 1t is vitamins A, D, and G that
are most often lacking. This de-
ficiency is responsible for poor
matches. While many farm focks are
not given feeds that contain enough
of these vitamins to make good hatch
ing eggs, yet each of them can be
supplied without much trouble or ex-
pense.
. A good source of vitamin A is gel
low corn. Alfalfa meal of good green
color, or other green hay meals, as
well as cabbage and similar green
feeds, provides liberal quantities of
vitamin A. Supplying reasonable
quantities of these feeds will insure
ample amounts Of vitamin A in the
eggs for Matching purposes. There
are many other feeds which contain
some vitamin A, but among the COM
mon farm feeds these are the most
important and economical ones.

IMPROPER TILTING
MAY KILL CHICKS
Should Never Allow Eggs to
Stand Small End Up.

About half of the losses from fer
tile eggs that fail to hatch during In
cubation are due to abnormal posi-
lions of the chicks in the shell and
are to some extent preventable, &C
cording to DR.. T. c.. Byerly Of the
bureau of animal industry, United
States Department Of Agriculture.
The normal position of the chick be-
fore Matching is with the head near
the air sac at the large end of the egg.
The chick breathes the air in the sac
before it pips the shell, but in case of
an abnormal position the chick may
die from suffocation.
The principal cause of abnormal po-
sitions of chicks in the shell Is be-
lieved to be improper fitting Of the
eggs In the tray from the fifth to the
fifteenth days of incubation. Eggs In
cubated with the small end up show
the highest percentage Of abnormal
positions of chicks, and the depart
ment therefore recommends that eggs
this position. Eggs in many CONNER
cial incubators are tilted at 45-
degree angle. with the large end up,
which is believed to give fewer abnor-
NAL positions among the chicks than
incubatfng them horizontally.
Experiments indicate that losses
from abnormal positions of chicks in
the shell may be reduced. though not
entirely eliminated. An incubator tray
was devised that maintains position
between the horizontal and 45-degree
angle. The eggs were turned mechan-
ically every Is minutes and rotated on
their long axis in an arc of 60 to 120
degrees but were never rolled over
and over. Eggs in a similar expert
ment that were turned always in the
same direction every Is minutes
showed very heavy loss.

LESSON FOR ALL

WRITER'S FABLE

roadside and, having paused to
quench their thirst, they noticed a
stone which. though partly over

cleared away the foliage and dirt and
succeeded in deciphering an inscrip,
ton l., pure Castilian: "Here lies
buried the soul Of Peter Garcian, the
Licentiate."
One Of the students burst into a
loud guffaw at the suggestion that

absrrdity of the legend, went on his
way. But his fellow considered:

JURY VERDICT
CRITICISED BY
JUDGE BAKER
Miscarriage of Justice in
MarIette Case, Says
Bench.

The criminal court jury that re-
turned a verdict of guilty Of grand
larceny against Guy Marlette. in
dicted for robbery in connection
with the holdup Of Harry Schubert
last September, was severely criti-
cised by Criminal Judge Frank P.
Baker yesterday.
Judge Baker sentenced Marlette
to serve one to ten years in the In
diana state prison.
The jury was out eight hours de-
Hberating the case, returning the
grand larceny verdict at midnight
Wednesday.
BY strange twist of fate, William
Sanders. who earlier had pleaded
guilty to the crime and was the
states star witness in the Marlette
trial, must be sentenced to serve a
minimum sentence of ten years.
The penalty for robbery is a de-
terminate sentence between ten and
twenty years in prison; a grand
larceny verdict bringing only a one
TO ten year prison term.
IF your attorney had asked for
a new trial I would have granted
it Immediately" Judge Baker told
Marlette when he appeared before
him for sentencing. There has
been a. great miscarriage Of justice
in this case. The state in this trial
presented a clear case of robbery
and 1 am convinced that you are
guilty of robbery
Sanders must serve at least ten
years because he pleaded guilty to
robbery, while you will be eligible
for parole at the end Of one year"

Main falling off, compared with
year ago, is in Northern potatoes, al

only small recoveries after three weeks

Apple shipments are light and de-

Most Southern and Southwestern
vegetables are in slow demand at

Florida Strawberries have tended

reported by frost in late March, and
there was some damage in the Pacific
