THE CASEMENT EXECUTION
The hangiug of Roger Caseuicut
bring* to au end of another chapter of
English stupiditv and cruelty. IVar-e
aud his associates, 'he '-jders of the
Hina Fein revolt, wore mere dreamers
and poets whose greatest ambition in
life, before the war revealed to them
the hour to strike for Ireland's free-
dom. was the revival of the Gaelic Ian
gnage. Casement himself was a poet,
too. though he had a career of distin-
guished service for which he hail been
knighted.
England finds justification for her
execution of these men en the ground
that they were guilty of treason. But
the revolt from beginning to end was
bidarre. The folly of it made it more
l-ughable and pathetic than criminal.
It furnished a remarkable opportunity
for England to have shown real mag-
nanimity. Aud since England now
claims to be fighting for the “freedom
of little people.” the right of Belgium
aud Serbia to live, it does seem as if she
might have extended her pretension ol
championing the weak to Ireland. Sim
missed the occasion. She has been n>
thorough, as efficient, as ruthless in hei
Tengeanee ns the Kaiser would bn\*
been. She may talk no more of Fryatt.
As for Edith Cavell there are widowed
'Edith Cavells in Ireland.
But if treason must always be punish-
able by death, and that is England’s
defense for this carnival of the gallows,
what of Sir Edward Carson, who led
the Ulster revolt aud who was backed
up by army officers in open rebellion.'
If Casemj.it was a traitor. Carson was
a traitor. If Cusement Imd the en-
couragement of German intrigue so. too.
did Carson. But Carson was taken into
the cabinet and Casement is ill quick
lime.
Is the difference that between the
o-ange and the shamrockt Sorely, that
is the way all Irishmen will view it
whose fathers sang “The Wearing of
the Green.”—Daily Oklahoman.

The hen Ii an economical transform-
er of food Into a finished producL A
ben laying 200 eggs In a year Is not at
all unusual. A four-pound ben Ikying
thin number will produce six times
her weight in eggs. To do thla she
will require from seventy to eighty
pounds of food. For economical pro
duction It Is necessary:
1 That the food be properly ae
1acted.
2. That It be fed In correct propor
tlon and In a Judicious manner In or-
der that her digestive organt may be
kept in good condition
3. That she be fed enough so that
she has plenty of surplus for egg pro
duction.
Food Is taken Into tiro body to fur
ntah energy and to build up tissue.
In feeding for egg production the pur-
poses for which food Is supplied are:
1. To supply '.lie body needs
2. To product eggs
The problems of poultry feeding re-
quire good judgment and keen obser-
vation. Hens fed for egg production
should ha'e food high in the food ele-
ments which are found In eggs. Those
fed in the fattening peua should have
the foods which most economically
produce fat. The best ration, then, is
the one which supplies most econom-
ically the food requirements of the
bird for the purpose for which It is
kept.
It should be remembered that one
of the principles of poultry feeding is
that the hen cannot do well if fed on
a whole grain ration. Not only does
tent and higher In starch content than
bran, but because of the relative
cheapness should be used. A mash too
high In middlings Is pasty, and when
used, middlings should be mixed w'th
other foods so as to be easily handled
by the digestive tract.
Corn should form a large portion of
the ration. It Is liked by the fowls.
Because of Its high starch and fat
content. It is fattening. It should be
fed In combination with other grains.
Cracked corn Is In a form more eaally
assimilated than whole corn, and bet-
ter results will come with the use of
it. Feeding Immature or green corn
in the fall often results In dlgeatlvs
troubles
Cornmesl should be present In all
rations. It may be used tn the mash,
but should be mixed with other feeds
so as to lessen the liability of crop
impaction. One danger In handling
romtnea! Is Its liability of beating or
fermenting In storage. Sour or moldy
feed should never be fed A good prac
tics In to mix the corn meal with bran
In proportions desired, and store
mixed rather than attempt to store
separately. One of the reasons why
cornbread Is better than eommeal as
a chick food is that baking destroys
the ferments or molds.
Oats can lie used ujccesefullv in the
ration. When fed whole they should
be fed In limited quantities, not more
than one-third of the grain ration, be-
cause ol the high percentage of hull.
Chickens are able to digest but very
little crude fiber, and for this reason
one must limit the amount of foods
with hulls, such as buckwheat, oats,
sunflower seed, etc. The ratton should

The slightest symptoms of kidney
trouble is far too serious to be over-
looked. It’s the small, negleeted trebles
that so often lead to serious kidney ail-
ments. That pain in the “small’' of
your bark; that urinary irregularity;
those headaches and dizzy spells; that
weak, weary, wornout feeling, may be
nature’s warning of kidney weakness.
Why risk your life by neglecting these
symptoms .* Reach the cause of the
trouble while there is yet time—begin
treating your kidneys at onee with a
tried and proven kidney remedy. No
need to experiment—Doan ’» Kidney
Dills have been successfully used in
thousands of cases of kidney trouble for
over 50 years. Doan’s Kidney Dills are
used and recommended throughout the
civilised world. Endorsed at home.

tlofl la difficult for the bird to digest
properly. The great fault with the
farmer In his poultry feeding la that
ho attempts to feed a whole grain ra-
tion. and generally only one grain at
of crude fiber. Ground oats make an
excellent mash for chickens, while pin-
head or steel-cut oats make excellent
chick feed, as do rolled oats.
The hen requires some food high In
protein. All our grain foods so far
that. Such a ration results in poor egg considered do not furnish enough pro-
tein. It is necessary, then, to supply
| something which will balance the ra
! tion. or equalize the relation between
j the proteins and the carbohydrates
! and fats. Of the vegetable protein
j foods, oil meal is perhaps the most
; popular. It is high in protein, con-
| taining 30 per cent, and makes a val-
uable addition to the mash during the
I moulting season. It should never form

i the same purpose and is greatly rel-

Meat foods are considered essential

it is poor economy not to feed meat

come to the department of poultry
husbandry and a suggested change In
the ration has usually resulted In the
elimination of the trouble. Efficient
digestion demands aBcombinatlon of
whole and ground grains A ration
should consist of grains and ground
feeds Generally speaking, twice as
much grain should be consumed as
ground feed This depends, of course,
upon the nature of the foods fed.
Whole and cracked grains are desig-
nated by poultry feeders as scratch
foods Combinations of ground feeds
either wet or dry are called mashes.
Adaptability of Feed Stuffe.
| the ration is as much as necessary,
provided no other food unusually high
j in protein is fed. If oil meal, gluten
, meal. etc., are fed. this proportion can
be reduced. At the Missouri agricul-
! tural experiment station a pen of 25
i l.eghorns was fed beef scrap and pro-
duced 8G9 more eggs from November
l, 1914, to July 1. 1915, than a corre-
sponding pen which was fed the same
, ration but without the beef scrap. The
I two pens ate practtcally the same
amount of food, so that $2.10 worth
of beef scrap produced 869 more eggs.
Green cut bone Is popular as a meat
food. It is greatly relished by hens.

be fed to advantage aud can often be
obtained cheaply. Wheat screenings.
If of good quality, can be used. Sal

ket. It should be used with caution.
Grain burned by fire makes satisfac-
tory poultry food: there Is. however,
a large amount of salvage grain that
was never in an elevator fire The
wheat has spoiled by molding, and
has been charred so as to hide this
fact. Moldy grains of any kind should
never be fed. The molds not only set
up digestive disorders, but cause a
certain disease of the lungs.
Bran is a by product of wheat. It
should always form au important part
In any poultry ration Bran is high

mash ration of such consistency that

arise. This is the chief value of bran

A small amount daily increases ma-
terially the egg production. When
one meat food Is fed there is no need
of supplying others.
Tankage is not so satisfactory be-
cause the hens do not like it so well.
Fresh fish, infertile eggs, table scraps,
etc. can also be used tn the supply ot
animal food.
For fanners the use of sour
skimmed milk or buttermilk is urged
At the Missouri agricultural experi-
ment station it was shown that by the
use of sour milk the cost of produc-
ing eggs was reduced ten cent a doxen.
