little grey squirrels who dwelt together in a great forest and they cared for each other so much that they never had a cross word one day two men came into the forest and began to qunrrel when they had gone the first squirrel who had been watching the men turned to the sec ond and said very politely let us quarrel very well said the other who was always anxious to please how shall we begin oh it will not be very hard said the first squirrel those strange animals who have just gone away found it easy enough in all sorts of ways they tried to pick a quarrel with one another but they were so polite that the plans never worked at last the first squir rel found two fins nuts and bringing them to the second squirrel said now here are two nuts you say theyre yours and ill say theyre mine and well be sure to have a fine quarrel now those nuts are mine oh very well said the other you are more than welcome to them but at this rate said the first vwe will never quarrel talk back vone person cant fight by himself it takes two now lets begin all over again i own all the trees in the woods is that so said the second agreeably how nice of you to let me live here at this the first squirrel

expect to be victorious but not to conquer the following statement lias been communicated to the london daily express by a neutral its importance lies in the fact that the writer- has been in the position during the en tire duration of the war to visit all parts of germany and has been in constant personal contact with the heads of the military political and commercial parties of the country the great crisis for germany will come after the war the working men will return home from the trenches and will find the country de nuded of raw materials the gov ernment will have to send out into the world to get new supplies and no body knows how the stuff is to be paid for or what will happen the test will be far severer than anything that has occurred during the war the german people believe they are going to have a victorious peace but not a conquerors peace the differ ence being left to the imagination germany is feeling the economic crisis very much but the people are fatalistic and are saying it is gods will there certainly is no present evidence of an impending collapse and the war can be continued by the kais er for a year longer after 1916 no body knows the

rhode island red hens and found them very rsatisfactory i have tried raising dif ferent breeds of hens but find i like the r i reds the best they are profitable laying hens and are also suitable for table use writes andrew gaddes in farm and dairy in the spring we set our hens in a house separate from the henhouse where they have plenty of food and fresh water also lime and dust to roll in these hens do not get out side until the chicks are out when the chickens come out they are re moved to a long coop which has slats on the front this coop is djvided up and will hold several hens the chicks are able to run about outside but the mothers cannot get out when they are about a week old the hens are also let out to my very young chickens i feed a mash made of bran and moulie but as they get older i give them wheafeiahvayss2aktie wheat in water so it will not kill the chickens by swelling in their crops the chickens are allowed to run about all summer i feed them only twice a day after they get a good size i sell and kill off all my male chick ens in september i select the best pullets the ones i intend keeping and then have these shut up in a box stall by themselves ifeed these pul lets very- heavily givinijthem all- they can eat their food consists of boil ed potatoes mashed and mixed with moulie i also give them mixed grain at times the reason why i do this is because i find when pullets are treat ed this way in the fall they lay stead ily all winter if the pullets were al- lowed to run with the old hens during f this heavy feeding the old hens would become too fat in the winter i feed my hens corn on the cob this corn is warmed in a pan in the oven which they get in the morning at noon they get a mash of boiled potato skins crumbs and bran and at night they get mixed grain the caii of water in the house hangs from the ceiling by a ain i also hang a cabbage or so- other vegetable from the ceiling for the hens to peck at a piece of meat boiled and hung on a cord in this way is excellent food for the hens my hens get a piece of meat every other day during the winter- i find that a piece of cows liver or lights boiled and hung up makes excellent food i always feed my hens and chickens sulphur once a week i find that the sulphur is a preventative of lice it is not good to have too many hens in the one house i have a tells tired women of dodds kidney pills miss
