SEPT SO TOG Bk ;| WHY The Roman Empire Lost Domination on Earth To a certain extent the decline of | the Roman empire was due to its hav- | ing outgrown its strength, Its ramifi- | cations in the western hemisphere | rendered Rome peculiarly vulnerable | te barbarian invasion, and a deteriora | tion of the national character brought about by excess and conceit in its |own powers, made the empire less uble to cope with the situation, The | division of the empire into two parts, the eastern portion being governed | from Byzantium (Constantinople) and the western from Rome, added te the }decay of its powers. The provinces lied for army and court, and in dis- ‘ruption through internal war, could not repel the barbarian inroads, The Jing the invader tary command and giving him milll- proved futile, and }eventually Rome was taken by Goths, A.

The invader was bought out at a heavy price, but from | that the might of the Roman em- pire departed | ENTERING NEW FIELD OF ART the | drained to inunition by taxation lev- | iey at first introduced of concillat- | | Why the Average American Is Invited | to Read the Works of Great Russian Writer, The Russian creates character. I do not mean this as a sneer at our own work and tastes, but simply as a definition. It is safe to say that the ordinary | American reader on a train could not jendure the +s of Chekhov; but he j ought to make the attempt, learn to enter a new field of art, |try something else. The chief requisite for a successful short story in America is that it be “snappy,” “sure-fire”; things must be- gin to happen quickly, or the reader will turn to the next author, Many of our expert producers of these thrillers are fillers of prescriptions; they know exactly what is needed, and give it in generous doses, Some of them are absolutely depend- able, They never disappoint you, The American snappy story often builds up an extremely clever and mysterious situation, and suddenly solves it so that at the conclusion the reader sminiles happily, and knows that he has been amused, just as he knows that the marshmallow tasted good—then he forgets all about it—William Lyon Phelps, in the Yale Review. if only to to sted. Tn plain truth, lying is a hateful and accursed vice. We are not men, we have no other tle upon one another, but our word. If we did but perceive the horror and {il-consequences of it, we should pursue it with fire and sword, and more justly than other crimes, I see that parents common- ly, and with indiscretion enough, cor- rect their children for little innocent faults, and torment them for wanton childish tricks that have neither im- pression, nor tend to any consequence; whereas, in my opinion, lying only, and, what is of something a lower form, willful obstinacy, are the faults which ought on all occasions to be combated, both In infancy and prog- ress of these vices, which will other- wise grow up and increase with them; and after a tongue has once got the knack of lying, tis not to be imagined how impossible it is to reclaim It.— Montaigne. Why Lying Is Det Why She “Borrowed” Clothes, A woman went Into a Columbus de- partment store recently and asked to see a suit of clothes for her small son, She looked over the entire stock very carefully, but seemed unable to make a selection. Finally she selected a sult and cap, but asked that she be permitted to take the articles home, that she might have time to give them further consideration. The obliging clerk permitted her to do so. The next day she returned to the store with the clothes and cap. The clerk politely inquired whether or not her customer had found the clothing satisfactory. “Oh, yes, they are lovely,” sald the woman, “but I'm through with them | now. I just wanted to have my little | boy's picture taken, and he didn’t have clothes nice enough.”—Indlanap- olls News.

Fatigue begins | to show on Thursday, when production | averages 15 per cent below Tuesday's | maximum, Friday ts the blue day. On | Saturday we all are tired, but actually | do more work under the stimulating excitement of the approaching week- | work.-—Popular fence Monthly. Why Figures May Be Wrong. | Cause for alarm. Census bureau | Says farmers made only 13,365,805 gal- | tons of cider in 1919, compared with 83,008 gallons in 1909, This looks like one of the great | American industries is going to decay. | Figures for 1921 probably would show | a further falling off in cider. The little joker is that an enormous amount of bard cider is made on the sly and doesn't show up in the statis- ties, Almost anyone making hard cider is apt to sample it frequently. 20-ti Hence the figures he furnishes are bound to be muddled. ———— American invents situations, the | | elally ANIMAL FEED IS IMPORTANT Meat Scrap, Milk and Its Products, Tankage or Fish Scrap Increase Egg Yield. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) A great increase in our annual egg production may be expected when poultrymen and farmers in general rec ognize the importance of animal feeds in the rations for the laying flock. The demonstration of the superiority of feed combinations containing meat scrap, milk and its products, tankage, or fish scrap is one of the most valu- able additions to our knowledge of poultry management contributed by the United States Department of Ag riculture and various experiment sta tions. Practically all experimental tests have shown that these feeds will greatly stimulate egg production, espe- during the fall and winter months, The fact that many farmers get no eggs at all during this perlod may usually be attributed to a lack of essential animal feed. The addition of from 10 to 25 per cent of one of those named would in most cases make a remarkable difference. Which one of these feeds should be used depends upon local conditions afid prices. They are of about equal value when the protein content is taken into consid eration, The fish meal and tankage have given just as good results as meat scrap. Milk is Just as good when avail- able at a low cost, and fresh butter- milk and skim milk produce good re- sults. In some sections condensed but- termilk and semt-solid buttermilk have been fed with success. In a test extending from November 1 to July 10 on the government farm Hens Need Animal Feed to Make Big Egg Returns. at Beltsville, Md., 30 hens op a ration without meat scrap or any animal feed averaged 74 eggs each. Another flock of 830 hens of the same breed during the same period laid an average of 113 eggs each, the difference of 39 eggs be ing attributed to the ration which con- tained meat scrap. Both flocks were out on range whenever the weather was favorable, which made the dif- ference less than it would have been had the birds been kept in pens. In a test made by Purdue university agri- cultural experiment station animal feeds were shown to have a decided value in the ration of laying hens and pullets. The pullets fed skim milk averaged 140.2 eggs in a year; those fed meat scrap, 135.9 eggs, and those in the check pen that received no an- imal feed of any kind laid an average of only 61.2 eggs. It has been shown that it is impos- sible to judge the value of a hen as | a layer unless she has been fed a ration that would give her an opportunity to demonstrate her capacity. Pullets that have not ylelded profitably be cause of a ration lacking in animal matter have become profitable layers when the defect in the ration was cor rected, CARE FOR INCUBATOR LAMPS Some of Principal Reasons for Smok- ing Are Improper Trimming and Poor Oil. end and the desire to clean up our | Guard against smoking incubator lamps. Not allowing for wick to creep up as it warms, not fitting lamp shade tightly, improper trimming of wick filling lamp too full, direct draft on lamp and poor grade of oil are the principal reasons for smoking. All of these can be avoided ihe care. SEEK CONSTITUTIONAL VIGOR Cood, Strong Birds Ar nes of Great Im- portance in Building Up Flock of Heavy Layers.

BEST GEESE FOR BREEDERS Usually Waste of Time to Try to Die pose of Old Fowls—Keep Them for Breeding. Old geese do not sell well in mar- ket, and it Is usually a waste of time and money to attempt to so dispose | of them. Keep the old ones for breed- ing purposes, as they will be service- able for from ten to twenty years, and | then sell the young ones at market.
