So It seems to he with the war of propaganda which to date has been pcrbapH more Important In Km ope than the war on the western front. Tho English have been beaten but not fairly bouten. And this time there does hoc in something unfair about the contest. Itadio Interchanges between Eng land and (Jermany have been con Htiuil, each country trying to beat down the morale of soldier and civ ilian behind the other's lines. Lon don papers have forthrightly ad mitted thut thus far oa tho battle field of propaganda Britain has been "decisively beaten," and that Uocbbcls haa bad a walkaway. Hut tho odds really are unfair. In Germany, every effort Is made to keep tho peoplo from listening to the French or llrltlsh broad casts. The secret listener, caught In the heinous crime of listening to the broadcast of his choice, may oven have his head shorn off by that German revival of Dr. Guil lotine's ingenious Invention. The British can't do that. In a war In which tliey have announced that freedom is on of their chief; objectives It would hn most em barrassing to begin tho fight by sacrificing thu objective. So the only defense Is to laugh off the German radio barrage that dully blankets the llrltlsh Isles. That has U"t always been suc cessful. Tho Itiillsh papers them selves comment on the extent to which the German broadcast havo niicali'd hi the noorcr'and less fur- lunate of the llrltlsh people, saying ! "Look, you am being used an sacri fices to preserve a situation In which you are miserable, and have no atake." To the extent that the listener Ik miserable, and has no make, this has been effective. It Is ri'Mcclcd In a growing move ment for peace, compromise, set tlement, and It Is disturbing to Ilrilish authority. The Germans have bailed their liroudraMs with personal mcKsages rrom British prisoners, who are put on the air to reassure British rolallves Unit they are all right. What British family, knowing thai In this way they may get first word of a loved one's safety, will tall to listen lu on the German sta tions? It Is bard and (here Is uo place to put one's fullli in such a con Ilict hut In the old certainty that trulh will ovenluiilly prevail, and I hat Houstblo people, though mis It d perhaps for a lime. will even tually cleave to trulh.

Almost every thing under the sun had been tried, both in application to the birds and in application to the roosts and to the chicken house. One day, a retired druggist who had become a farmer, was consid ering the problem of the control of poultry lice as he went about his work. He recalled that on the label ot a "black Leaf 10" bottle were the words, "kills by fumes and by con laet." The thought occurred to blm that possibly the fumes under the leathern of the bird would do a t lean-up Job on fowl parasites. This man tried painting the chicken roosts und. to his delight, his theory proved to be 100 per cent practical. Since that time. Considerable has been learned about delouslng birds through the application of "black Leaf 40" to the roosts, but tho fun damentals of the problem were solved when thifl farmer used his head for thinking purposes ufter reading the label.
