    OF INTEREST T
THE STRUGGLES OF A WIFE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHAPTER VII.
(Copyright, 1916, Star Company)
To decide to use one's talent to
make money is one thing; to make
money by one's talent is quite a dif
ferent thing.
Myra Webb, like many another
person who lias not put her theories
to the actual test, had always de
clared that if one would work for
one's living, one could find an a'bun
.lance of work to do. Had not she. .
its a girl, proved that, young and J
inexperienced as she was. she could ,
support herself? For a few months
she had paid her own boaid and
clothed herself. To be sure, "he bad
married in less than half a year alter ;
she bad undertaken the duties of a |
social secretary —but that was onl> an ;
accident. , , „ j
What she had done for a few ,
months she could have done for an> j
number of years. Moreover, s 1
could have made a living writing
for magasincs and newspapers. in 1
those girlhood days she had sent a j
couple of short articles to a certain
publication, and they had been ac
cepted. The pay she bad received
had been small—but she had not de- |
mantled much.
I lev brief experience had convinced 1
lier that, given health and energy,
one could always succeed. Therefore,
with the coming of cold weather she
was ready to prove her faith by her j
works. .
It was without fear of failure that |
she engaged a maid whose salary j
she meant to pay herself. As mat- j
tors were now she could not ask 1
her husband to nssume another dol- I
jar's worth of expense. It was all that j
lie could do. he said, to provide for j
their necessities, and the wife did not
let him suspect that she had paid for j
some things from what was left of
her small savings after the crash.
A Start
She had, as soon as his failure was ;
certain, handed to her husband all tlie j
money she bad put in the savings bank j
during the years of plenty. She beg- j
ged him to use it to "start up the lad- 5
dor" he must begin to climb again. 1
The little cash she had besides this
amounted to less than SSO, but it liad
stood her in good stead in paying for 1
sundry trifles this summer.
Debts still oppressed Horace Webb. I
and he had accepted his wife's gift In 1
the spirit in which she had tendered'
it. She had insisted that it was not
to lie a loan, but a gift, and he ac
cepted it with a grave expression of
thanks that left her wondering just
bow grateful he really was. Then she ;
reminded herself with quick compunc- ;
tion that he was conferring an honor |
upon her in allowing her to help him. j
It was the least that she could do after |
the period of luxury in Which she had |
lived with this man.
In spite of the rigid economy prac
ticed by Grace and herself, each week
found them running just a little be
hind in meeting expenses.
"And we don't, save money by be
f'ug invited out to meals,'' Grace re
marked one day with a laugh, "for J
nobody asks us."
"Our friends will invite us when
th.*y ratorn to town." Myra aYlrmed.
"And we won't accept when we
cannot invite them here," Grace re
torted.
"We can entertain them when we
have a servant," her mother urged.

SATURDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG s£jft2b TELEGRAPH MARCH 25, 1916
"Perhaps there may be a few who
would care to come a second time,"
the girl said, musingly. "But most
of the old set won't."
"Then well make our own new
set!" the mother declared.
She would not bury herself and
her daughter In this small flat and
never see anybody, she determined.
But first of all, there must be a maid
in the household.
As soon as the maid was installed. :
i came the added Item of her food and
I the realization that in a month her
wages would fall due.
Yet the housekeeper had not been
unmindful of these expenses when
she told the neat Irish girl that she
would "give her a trial." As soon as
i she, Myra, had time to write, money
! would begin to come in. And now
that Lizzie was installed in the
kitchen, there would be leisure in
[ which to write.
Th maid was not an expert cook |
or waitress, but was willing to learn,
and it would require only a few min
utes each day to teach her the thing*
of which she was ignorant.
So, on the morning in early Oc
; lober when Grace began her duties
at Miss I.etson's school. Myra seated
herself at her desk In the corner of
the diningroom, prepared to begin her
new occupation.
The room had been swept and
dusted immediately after breakfast,
so that the writer might be left un
disturbed. She drew a pad of Manilla
■ paper from a drawer, and, after sit
-1 ting lost in thought for some minutes,
; began an article that she was sure
I would be interesting«enough to please
the average editor.
All Interruption
She wrote rapidly, and so earnestly
that it was with a distinct shock that
I she returned to the present and to
the realization that t/izzje had entered
the room and was speaßing to her.
"What—what Is it?" Mrs. Webb
I asked confusedly.
"1 only wanted to tell you. ma'am.
1 that the butcher's boy has just come
I to say that they can't get no lamb's
5 kidneys to-day. Lamb's a bit scarce
just now, he says, and lamb's kidneys.
Lambs have not come up from down
town yet."
I "Well—well—what of that?" Myra
I asked. "1 can do nothing about it
i now."
"No, ma'am, only you ordered kid
ney stew for dinner to-night, and I
'list wanted you to know we can't
I have it."
"When 1 go out this afternoon I
will order something else sent in," the
| mistress said, forcing herself to speak
| gently. "Now, Lizzie, I am very busy.
I so please do not interrupt me again."
j It took at least ten minutes for
I Myra to get back into the mood from
I which she had been snatched by the
I news about the lambs' kidneys. When,
at last her thoughts began to flow
once more, she had a quiet half hour
! before she was again disturbed by Liz
j zie who entered, indignation on her
flushed countenance.
"If you please, ma'am." she an
nounced. "the grocer's sent such ran
cid butter that you'll never eat it for
your lunch —never!"
With a sigh, Myra Webb,, would-be
writer, turned her mind from litera
ture to butter. She was beginning to
learn already that the woman who
would be both writer and housekeeper
has not an easy task ahead of her.

and this costume shows a very attractive
one. It i 9 edged with fur and finished
with the flaring collar that makes a pretty
frame for the face. The costume is made
of broadcloth in a rich dark shade of red
and the fur is skunk. The color combina

the suit is one to be admired and to be
copied. As a matter of course, various
1 materials can be used, unquestionably
broadcloth is and will continue to be the
favorite, velvets and velveteens are
handsome made in this way, satin cloth
is fashionable and the list goes on almost
indefinitely. For the present, there is 110

The Great Economic Value

Bearded golden polish ~ I
Copyright 1916
These races of Polish fowls were
| first known as the Crested Dutch. It
| is probable that they came from Italy
to the Netherlands, thence to Western
\ Kurope, and later to America.
The first of these varieties was the
! Whl'e Crested Black; and from these j
the >utch breeders obtained the Sil
' ver and Golden Polish, some with j
i crests only, and others wlWh both crests
and beards. The Golden Polish, a*
1 shown above, are of (he latter variety, j
and they have immense crests and
beards which almost hide the eyes.
Their plumage is generally golden tan
in color, each feather laced or edged
! with brilliant black.

j This is an age of miracles. You can
sail ON" the sea, UNDER the sea, or
1 ABOVE the sea. You can sit in an
easy chair in Xe\v York City ami talk
wllli your friend in San lYaneiseo.
Tlie "Wireless" pulses your message j
through five thousand miles of etlier
us quickly as you could dictate it lo a
I stenographer. Our modern wizards of
progress arc performing; greater won
ders than the ancient masters of the
"Black Art" ever attempted.
The feats of science are equally as
tounding ill the animal kingdom. Min
nesota announces that one of her llol
stein-l'rlesian cows, "Duchess Sky
lark Ormsby," lias produced an aver
age of more tlian I pounds of butter
a day for twelve consecutive months!
i And now we have the amazing output
of a threc-and-a-half-pound Leghorn
| hen—3l4 eggs in 365 days! Wliat
does it mean? I.et us see.
Economic Value of Oic lien
SHE has proved her worth. She
has the goods and can deliver
them. This astounding perform
ance makes plain the wealth ot' possi
bilities in every man's dooryard flock.
The expert tells us that there are
more than 7,000 latent eggs in the
normal hen. One individual has
shown that she can lay hundreds of
these hidden, dormant, potential pos
sibilities in twelve months. If one
can do it, then others can. No one
expects seven thousand eggs from any
hen, however long she may live. But
every one knows now that he need not
go round the world to find his "Acres
iof Diamonds." One American hen
has shown us that there is as great ,
economic value !>i her as can be found,
weight tor weight, in any animal in
! the world.
What then? Simply this: It is up
| to us to make the most of the domes- ;
| tic fowl. She has the eggs and she is
never happier than when laying them.
The hen that can lay 200 eggs in a
year has become common. Her dis- 1
covery is of recent date, however. A
j dozen years ago there were few who i
believed that such a producer could ,
I be bred. To-day the SOO-egg hen has j
j been discovered in various pa. ts of ,
- the country. The evidence is so over- ]
whelming that millions of the Amer- :
! lean people are challenged to dig for I
j the diamonds that are hidden away j
!in the common hen. Yes! The pro
ducing power is in the little hen—not 1
| n shadow of doubt remains. What aiv j
we going to do about it? She is able- j
and willing: are we willing and able? j
It isn't a matter of a particular)
breed. There ate a dozen breeds of ;
fowls that can be depended upon for
I the high economic values if > ightl.v j
handled. The egg-laying contests In
i various parts of America as well as :
in Australia prove that most of the
| common breeds of fowls have mar-;
velous possibilities in egg production
when handled rightly. While tho j
I heavier breeds may be slightly inferior j
[to some of the smaller breeds in aver- ,
i age egg production, they have points;
! of superiority in other respects that
; make them of equal \nlue. The man j
! behind the bird is the determining
! factor.
"Lady Eglantine" with her 314-eggj
! record has set the whole continent In
i search of poultry possibilities. Prac
! tically everybody outside the large
I cities keeps fowls. This amazing
i year's work of one hen has been her- J
' aided from ocean to ocean. It will I
j mean a powerful stimulus to the.
I movement already widespread to make j
the most of the utility value of the j
| backyard flock as well as of the tens
j of thousands of birds herded together !
I on the million-egg farm.
The average yearly yield of the.:
I farm flock is about 70 eggs for each I
hen. This is the finding of the De
partment of Agriculture at Washing
! ton. We write it and read it with
shame! It is surely a long, long way
from 70 to 314! The world is on fire
to-day over "Economic Efficiency."
Most certainly the figures that are
before the American people to-day
will mean a mighty stride forward In
egg production. Otherwise we prove
our economic deficiency.
A farmer told me the other day
J that he keeps 75 hens and that they
j "eat their heads off two or three times
a year." It's a long look from such a
, story to that of another farmer who
kept 400 layers last year and reports
ja profit of $l,lOO. above the cost of
j their feed.
The man who can't get paying re- j
suits from n flock of hens to-day must .
I hold himself responsible. If he does I
not resort to every possible method to I
Increase his egg production he must
confess that lie is not interested in
poultry culture, or that he is hope

generation.

the eye, as well as a producer for the
table, the Golden Polish will be found j
both pleasurable and profitable. The
hens are nonsitters, hence their eggs
must be hatched by other hens or by j
artificial means. The chicks are j
rather delicate, unless kept dry. Damp J
j '—ound or damp coops are fatal to j
young Polish. They should never be
] reared in large open spaces, as their I
crests prevent them from seeing the j
hawk in time to avoid capture.
In size these fowls compare with
the Leghorn and weigh about the ;
same. They are very fine boned and t
; carry a larger proportion of desirable
meat. The legs are blue, or, in old
specimens, white; the skin is white, j
| and each fowl has a round protuber- j
j ance on its skull, from which the .
I feathers of the crest grow.
these record birds'. Why may not :
every one of us start an egg-laying -
| contest right at home with the pur- ;
pose of increasing our egg yield, by
spotting the mere boarder and breed
' itig better birds for the tilling of the
j egg basket? A liberal estimnte of the j
| cost of feed for one hen for one. year j
j would be $1.50. Allowing a yearly
j production of only 120 eggs, there 1
will still be'a profit above iter feed of j
$1.60, with eggs at 30c a dozen. An
increa'se of 30 eggs a year to the fowl
above this would mean an average
]of only 150 eggs for each layer. But
i it would mean an increase of $1,500
; a year profit on a plant carrying 2,000
layers. This average would still be
less than half the record of the top
notch bird.
Here is where the American people
can cut "the high cost of living" by
half a billion dollars a year, namely,
1 by increasing the average egg yield
; or the common hen from 70 a year to
| 1 40 a year.
Poultry Culture a National Industry
The modern high-record hen should
mean this "unquestioned recognition."
j Poultry Culture has come to stay. We
are forced under the circumstances
; to rank it with dairying, wheat and
j corn production, lumbering, manu-
I facfuring, or any others of our great
; national industries.
I Two decades ago men made merry
! with the "poultry business"! There
was good cause for this in many cases.
, It was the day of beginnings in the
building up of the modern egg ma
chine. At present there are plenty of
i plants handling thousands and even
tens of thousands of birds. I visited
| one farm last summer where more
; than forty thousand fowls more than
i three months old were then being
' cared for. The same farm has an in
' cubator cellar with a total capacity
of 48,000 eggs. I visited another farm
; which had a producing • capacity of
| 250,000 baby chicks a year. Such ex
; tensive plants usually handle ten
thousand or more layers. From 50
to 300, and sometimes as high as 700,
! birds are kept in a flock.
Smaller plants for intensive egg pro
duction are numerous and multiplying
rapidl-- all over the land. A "One
j Man Farm" is supposed to handle
■ from 1,000 to 2,000 laying hens, the
"one man" '-equiring an assistant dur
ing the. busv season of incubation and
i brooding. These intensive and exten
sive plants, taken in connection with
I i'te tens of thousands of people on
the farms and in the towns who keep
j fowls in smaller flocks, lift poulry cul
! I 1 " -*" to the rank of any of the great
| industries of the country. The 300-
; e>rg hen puts her seal of certainty on
| the proposition. If one can lay 314
i eggs In twelve months there should
be millions in America that can lav
200 eggs apiece.
I This is not least. In fact It is pri- i
mary. Without scientific methods in
! breeding and care we would never
have known of the possibilities of the i
I hen. The trapnest. the balanced ra
