| i PAGE SIX SOME EUROPE FARMERS GET FEED BY BOATS (By United Press.) Pinsk— (By Mail.)—If a man went through the street of any American vllllge carrying a hay rake over one shoulder and a paddle over the other, Be'might be put down by the sophis- tieated population as the property men of a moving picture troupe. But out in the Pripot mashes it is all in the day’s work. In the little village of Gorodyszes —a good hour by motorboat from mere, and considerably longer when the propeller gets fouled in the reeds ——the farmers do their hay-making Wy boat. Some of the marsh vegeta- tion can be cured and converted into aeceptable hay, and on this nutriment the few horses of the village largely depend for their food. Gorodyszce is far out on the tip of a marrow peninsula. It might as well ®e on an island. The marshes make @ity extension topographically impos- aible. Log houses and door-yard gardens, small as they are, leave no room for Bay fields and pasturage. So the peas- ants go down to the inland sea each marhing, with their rakes, oars and sickles, and do their haying by boat. When the water farmers pictures- que'littie flat boat is piled high with swiinp grass, he puts back for town, poling through the shallows and pad- dling across the depths. Along the aloping shore he spreads is amphibi- ous harvest and cures it in the north- @rh summer sun. Then he carries it wup the hill and stores it for the bleak ‘winter. GREAT FLIGHT OF MOTH @pecimens Captured at Sea Twelve Hundred Miles From the Nearest Possible Land. ‘The enost wonderful of ocean fly- ers are the butterflies which cross the @cean in the spring. Naturalists tell ws that one of the most amazing aights in the world is to see millions of these delicate creatures, like a «eloud of tiny pieces of paper, flying acroes the channel from the conti- ment to the English shores, when the wind is favorable. Their stamina and endurance are extraordinary, and although some fall exhausted into the sea the bulk make a successful crossing The butterfly army of invasion generally | includes many beautiful specimens, and as an illustration of their pow- are of endurance, it might be men- tioned many butterflies have de- scended to rest on vessels 200 miles at sea. The furthest authenticated dis- -fmmce at which a moth has been cap- tured at sea was recorded by a well- kmown scientist eight years age, who took specimens of a certain large moth 1,200 miles from the mearest possible land.

CORK TREES IN SARDINIA, Cork trees ave indigenous to Sar- dinia, and extensive natural forests are to be found upon the mountain slopes in the northern part of the daland. The crop is cut every nine years. The process of industrial production is comparatively simple. The dried-out bark in.its cylin- drical form is first thoroughly steamed and flattened out under pressure. It remains in piles for about thirty days and reappears cov- ered with blue mold. The bark is then carefully scraped on both sides and cut into strips corresponding in width to the varying lengths of the cork stoppers desired. These strips axe cut by hand into cubes. The cubes are put through high-speed finishing machines, which round off the edges and give the .required taper. WHY? One—VYes, in a battle of tongue a woman can always hold her own. The Other— Perhaps she can. But to government ownership of the railroads, and to this may be sdded the transfer of income tax from the rich to the poor. BRYAN FINDS 1920 GETTING NEAR William Jennings Bryan is back in the public eye again, this time in the role of assailant of the National Se- curity league. He finds his ammuni- tion' in the report of the special com- mittee to investigate the National Se- curity league, submitted to the house of representatives on March 3, 1919. The house of representatives adopted the report of the committee. Mr. Bryan says this report should be read by every voter, because we are ap- proaching the campaign of 1920. He says In part: “Here we have it; the secret 1s out. The men connected with the league as supporters or officials rep- resented almost every predatory in- terest and favor-seeking corporation. The questions indicated that the two things uppermost in the minds of those in charge of the league’s actlivi- ties were first, the protection of the meat packers, and, second, opposition “The foresight of the league must be admitted; the department of justice has announced its intention to prosecute the paekers for violations of the antitrost laws, and the question of government ownenhtp of the railroads is now before congress.” WINTER GREENS FOR FOWLS Cabbages, Turnips, Beets, Potatoes, Etc., Are Suitable Feeds for Cold Weather. (Prepared by the: United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) If the best results are to be obtained with poultry they must be furnished with a plentiful’ supply of green feed. Where fowls have unlimited range om a farm they will' secure green feed during the spring, but during. the win- ter it must be supplied: for them. The question of how to supply the best | time their luster beecomes dimmed. feed at the least cost is:one that eaeh poultry keeper must decide largely for himself. It will probably make but little difference what kindi of greem feed fs supplied, provided it Is relished by the fowls. Cabbages, turnips, heets, potatoes, etc., are suitable for this purpose. The larger roots and the cabbages may be suspended by means of a wire or string, or they may be placed on the floor, i whieh case it would be well to: split the tar nips or beets lengthwise with a hrge( knife. Potatoes and turnips should be' fed cooked. The mangel is an excel-! tent root for feeding raw. Cut clover soaked in boiling water fed alone or: with the mash is good. Clover meal | and ground alfalfa make very good, feeds for this purpose. Where the! fowls are yarded and net enough a small patch of elover, alfalfa or rape may be sown. Any one of these, if which is rélished by the fowls.
