With bantv sIk8EM
chickens; or perhaps 1 should say
bantam chickens.
Bantams are queer little birds.
They are miniature chickens, per-
fectly proportional and they are
very scrappy. While they are easily
tanned and made into pets they are
still like wild birds in their habits.
The boosters are very cocky and
love to fight. In fact it is the ban
tams who are used in Spain and
Mexico for the cock fights you some
times hear about. If one of them
takes a dislike to another one, he
will fight until he is exhausted or
kills his opponent.
The hens when they have chicks
will tackle anything no matter how
large it is if it bothers her babies. For
the most part they are good mothers,
but once in a while one is too fhghty,
and then the babies suffer. 1t is about
lust such a case that I want to tell
you today.
This banty mother started out with
six adorable little chicks. Before
week was over, for one reason or
another, she had only two left. One
night we heard those two peeping
forlornly out in the chicken house.
When we went to investigate we
found the mother had flown onto
| high perch and the little ones couldn't
follow. We took the hen down and
placed her on the floor and put the
little chicks under her. She stayed
with them that night, but the next
night the same thing happened.
For two or three night we would
/ go out and place the chicks under
the hen as soon as it became dark
and everything would be quiet. One
night, however, there wasn't sound
from the chicken house. We decided
that we had finally made it clear
to the mother hen that she should
hover her babies on the floor, but
being curious, we went to see any,
way. Imagine our surprise when we
saw the mother perched in her usual
place and on the floor two little
heads were peeping from under the
wing of rooster.
From that night on we didn't have
to worry about the chicks any more.
The rooster continued to take care
of them. He stayed with them when
they were turned out in the morning
scratching up grain and bugs for
them just as a good mother should
Yes, strange things take place in
the animal world every day. One
doesn't need to read fiction to see
how wonderful animals are. If you
watch them you can find some new
thing about them every day ano
truly learn to know them and love
them more and more.

Bulletin Reports
On Pellet Study

SHOULD ALFALFA pellets be
fed dairy cattle for a roughage or
concentrate?
In an attempt to answer this
much-discussed question, the Wyo-
ming Agricultural Experiment sta
ton recently published the results
of a research project in bulletin
entitled alfalfa Pellets-Roughage
or Concentrate" by Donald c.
Brown, H. S. Willard, John w.
Hamilton, and James Read, all of
the experiment station.
The study showed it was not
economically feasible to pay more
than $44 a ton for alfalfa pellets
when barley is worth $50 and soy
bean meal $92 ton because of the
greater percent of fiber and the
smaller total-digestible-nutrient
content in alfalfa pellets than in
barley.
The conclusion drawn from the
study was that feeding dehydrated
alfalfa pellets as a concentrate to
dairy cattle becomes an economic
problem, to be dealt with in terms
of cost of total digestible nutrients
as well as labor saving in handling"

there seemed to be no relief or hope
from the pseudo.religions of the
day. Jesus came at critical time
saying, Leave the cid gods. Drop
the useless PHILOSOPHERS. Repent
for the kingdom of God is here. !"
Jesus came at history's midnight
and Lit the world like a fire on a
hill. For this purpose was Jesus
sent into the world.
DR.. Philip Schaff says, "Jesus of

ing. He shed more light on things
human and divine than all philos-
ophers and scholars combined:
without the eloquence of schools.
he spoke words of life as never
were spoken before or since, and
produced effects which lie beyond
the reach of orator or poet: with
out writing a single line. he has
set more pens in motion, and fur.
Inished themes for more sermons.
Iorations, discussions, learned vol
umes, works of art, and sweet
songs of praise, than the whole

John states the purpose of Jesus's
coming. OF course God sent his
son into the world because he loved
the world. God didn't hate the
world as bad as it may be. He has
pity for man and as Jesus wept
over the city of Jerusalem, so does
he rejoice over Que sinner that

condemn the world or to damn men
to he'll. but to save them. This age
is seeking security ard there is
no security other than in Jesus
Christ. He is the Savior of the

rejoice with them when some cour-

people into a fuller appreciation of
