"llllt's progress reports never nave suffered through me," Nell aid a little austerely as he moved away. So the morning wore on, hundred feet by hundred feet, uphill and down. If by noon Mary's uuhard-enelegs begun to ache, she showed no sign. She ate her dinner In the mess tent that evening. She was too tired to talk to Hank Johnson on the ride Into town. They arrived at the Dorseys to find 1 It and out surveying a framework that had been added to the end of the house. "What's going on?" Mary asked curiously. "Another room," said Hank Johnson, brusquely. "It's my house. I can nIU on to It, can't I?" And he alighted to scatter a group of children the ring of carpenters' hammers had brought. "Why did you do that?" Mary had the temerity to ask. "Don't like children," grumpily. He looked over the job, as if to see that he had received his money's worth during the day, and departed. Mary turned to Lucretia. "IIow-eve- r " "You know how he Is. Well, this morning as he passed I asked him to fix our gate. He said, 'No I I won't Let your old man fix It I He busted It!' "In ten minutes he was back with a carpenter. So I screwed up my courage and asked him If he didn't want to build on an addition for you since the carpenter was already here and all. And when he strode off down the street fairly apoplectic with rage, I guessed cor rectly that the lumber would be here In half an hour. It was.. You see, he wouldn't take a chance either on the depreciation of his gate, or on losing an extra five dollars a month rental." The crude little room went up apace. Mary Brown's work went on apace..

But when they came to the business detail of terms Mary blushed from her fair slim throat to the tips of her fragile ears. "I?" with an upflinging of her head. "Take money as a dancing teacher?" But her audience read Into her confusion only denial of her own ability, not the affront the rich David Brown's daughter Instinctively had felt "Not money from my friends I I'm getting more out of this than V Woster any of you. See, this Is the way the hesitation waits goes!" She danced away from them alone, light as a blown leuf, totally She was a vivid bit, vibrantly alive, the azure of her simple dancing frock bringing out the blue of her eyes, the sliver-golof her hair. She pivoted to a atop, to catch ber breath Inwardly. In the doorway, unnoticed by her before, stood Joha. Stark and Denis How long had they been Craig. there? With his charming, disarming smile, Denis was coming toward her now. "Don't you know," he was laughing, "that In the smartest schools pros have their partners for demonstration?" He swung her off to the rhythm she had been demonstrating, leading her with ease and heavenly rhythm. Initiating his own steps. The comradely crowd had given up their attempts and stood watching with open admiration. It was enough to send any girl's stock soaring. Mary's rose to the peak and then slumped to the bottom as Denis said in his most, teasing tone, "Still snapping your .fingers at money, I see, M. Brown." A small unreasonable fury swept Mary. He could mention money at a time like this. Money I Money ! It provoked her to the stinging uuself-consclou- d , re-he- r. "Et tu?" "Why should you think I was getting personal?"

This prophecy la based ou the present trend of scientific research. Today, because of luck of scientific knowledge about the nature of birds' fggs they are Incubated wastefully. Infertile eggs, and eggs of poor hatching quullty, are set Into the Incubator and destroyed. In the same Incubator attempts are made to hatch eggs of various species of birds, such as turkeys, chickens, and ducks, and failure to hatch them efficiently results. But In the future we shall be able to produce eggs of better hatchabll-lty- . Breeding stock will lay fewer Infertile eggs and fewer eggs with defective outside or Inside qualities. The quality of hatchable eggs will be much Improved by selective breeding, proper feeding and bousing of birds, and by proper selection and care of hatchable eggs. More knowledge will be gained about eggs of various species of birds, their handling at different stages of development, and the natural requirements of eggs for Incubation. Scientifically designed incubators, one type for chicken eggs, one for duck eggs, and special types for others will be developed. These Incubators will be more simple and more economical to operate, and they will insure a good, healthy hatch. The artificial Incubation of tomorrow will result from research activities today. The view of a brighter, better future should bring the whole hatching Industry nearer and nearer to perfection. Bf Prof. A. it. Cornell W.NU -- A But Her Mood Was Not in With Leaden Skies.

To have to worry when about simple subsistence you're all poised to soar to famel What a drag on your wings!" She sighed, and then said, finally, reluctantly, "Well, I can do anything that's necessary. I suppose I can pace the distance between stakes with one foot and do the light fantastic with the other. I'll have the classes." Lucretia looked sympathetically at the young girl, the dreams in whose eyes temporarily were clouded by the scheme of things. "It Is the dickens. Isn't It? If only we didn't have to eat and wear clothes '. I wonder how 'twould feel to be a millionaire and not have to worry about the necessity of merely existing?" "Don't ask me!" Implored the daughter of the rich David Brown. CHAPTER VI A "Gully-Washer.- " J PON the night before Thanks-givinday, Mary's sisters. Eve and Diane, helped their father and three secretaries until midnight, taking care of pleas for charity. Then they went on with a gay crowd to look In on two or three parties, and amusedly wondered, as they separated at 4 a. m., how that young Iconoclast, Mary, would be spending Thanksgiving. At that precise moment, 4 a. m., Mary was reaching out of bed to throttle an imperious alarm clock. A cold rub, a quick dressing In woolen woolen shirt, riding breeches and high heavy boots, and she went worth, lantern In hand, out through the back yard, across a lonely alley and Into a spooky old barn where the sole occupant she hoped looked at her mournfully with disillusioned eyes. "Again?" the decrepit gray horse seemed to demand. "It has to be done, Belinda!" said Mary, as she took a saddle from a hook, swung It across a swayed back, and added fatalistically, "All because we didn't choose a lady-lik- e profession, or weren't a T g last-minu- boy !" The winter rains had set In, making the road to the project impassable for motor cars. The men engineers with homes In Foggy Gulch had gone Into quarters In camp. Since the laws of convention made It Impossible for Mary thus to lessen the grief of the day's work, she had rented Belinda, and spent four extra hours a day traveling back and forth. It was Thanksgiving day, Mary remembered ironically. Well, she had her Job to be thankful for. John Stark apparently belonged to the old school which conceded only Christmas and the Fourth of July as holidays. His men worked six days of the week, rain or shine, and seven In an emergency. Trogress was the thing Gray of dawn was breaking through gray of fog and mist by the time Mary reached the boundaries of the project But her mood was not In harmony with leaden skies. How could ber spirit be leaden with the caressing softness of fog and mist on her cheeks and the earth sending Its clean dank scent to her nostrils; with herself, Mary Brown, part and parcel of this great development project ; with those dancing classes, successful as Lucretia had prophesied, making It possible for her to enclose fifty dollars In that letter to her father? It was to sing Indeed I 1 rain-washe- d TO BE CONTINUED. Every once In a while the science nutrition seems too puzzling aud complicated for the everyday person to understand. When doctors (and research workers) disagree, what Is left for the man In the street to do but to hold up Ms hands In bewilderment? Recently, In the same edition of a dully newspaper, on one page, appeared headlines quoting a statement by a famous nutritionist that people were vitamin crazy that they were paying entirely too much attention to this In choosing their diet. On the next page was a quotation from another equally famous nutritionist stating that as a people, we were on the verge of vitamin starvation. If we went further and read the text of the first statement we found, however, that the first authority had not discounted the fact that vitamins were necessary. He offered the Information that It was possible to get route most of these by the drug-storby means of concentrated oil for A and D, wheat germ or yeast for B, and by concentrating on one food source, such as oranges, for C Somehow, It seems to me a more sane and orderly proceeding to choose in practice a varied diet which will provide us without too much special thought, the vitamin supply which both authorities agree we need. It Is a consoling thought that If for any reason a diet must be so limited that we cannot be sure of the vitamin supply, we can advance on the drug store and get some of the lacking essentials. In some cases, under a physician's directions, we will add an extra supply to our diet Down In Baltimore we find Doctor McCollum of Johns Hopkins advancing the theory that the provoking cause of pernicious anemia may be a lack of vitamin B. Doctor Fletcher of Toronto has had excellent results from treating cases of arthritis with concentrate of vitamin B. Doctfy Howe of Boston and Doctor Ilanke of Chicago have had success In treating cases of pyorrhea and dental carles with food containing large amounts of vitamin O. We are told that research In regard to the causes of the common cold point toward a lack of vitamin A. Common sense, then, Indicates that we should attempt to choose a diet which Is rich In vitamins, supplementing It, If necessary, by concen trates from the drug store and by nature's source of vitamin D the rays of the sun. It is unnecessary for us to pick out each food with reference to its special vitamin content. The usual rules for a sane diet apply. I must stress the Importance of liberal amounts of milk, vegetables, fruits, of some eggs and meat and of a padding of fat, sugar and starch to make up the calories. No matter what news item you read, these basic facts hold good. f Keep the Pullets Busy, Regarded as Good Advice Just as a school teacher has the most trouble with her pupils in the first week of the school term, so does the poultryman have the most trouble with his pullets the first week they are confined from summer range, states a commercial poultryman in Pathfinder Magazine. During the first week in the laying house many pullets learn the vices that are responsible for mortality during the winter. Feather picking, egg eating, laying on the floor and other bad habits are started soon after the birds are housed. It Is very Important that pullets be kept busy when they are first confined. Supply liberal quantities of green feed. Keep laying mnsh before them in open hoppers, juuke them scratch and work as much as possible. Provide enough nests so that there will be no crowding. Be sure the birds are free from lice and the house free from mites. Poultry in Pastures Whenever there is pasture for cows there Is range for poultry. Fowls and chickens In a cow pasture keep It In better condition than when only cattle are running In it. Their own droppings are the best known fertilizer for grass. They spread the manure less evenly deposited by other stock. They destroy flies and other insects which annoy cows and horses at pasture. The farmer or dairyman who keeps what hens and chickens can be handled advantageously with his cows need not send more milk to market than can be sold at the established price. cod-live- r TrlcMnoiIs Caused ty Worm Trichinosis la caused by a tiny worm, too small to be seen without a microscope, which lives In the flesh of infected hogs and If not killed by cooking, Infects the person eating the meat from these animals.

Washington hens produced dozen eggs In 1933, 3 per cent of the nation's total. The color and quality of yolks of eggs can be Improved by feeding plenty of green food, such as chopped green barley hay, green alfalfa and kale. e e Alternate the breeding males If there seems to be too many males for one flock.
