FARM, FIELD AND GARDEN
PRACTICAL ITEMS SURE TO INTER
EST THRIFTY AGRiCULTURiSTS

The Subject of Artificial" Versus Natural
Chickens Considered by . New jersey
Correspondent In American Agricultur.
ist-BOth Sides Of the Story Told.
A writer who Is an authority on poul
try matters asks poultry raisers how
chickens hatched in an incubator and
raised in a brooder, can possibly differ
from hen reared ones. There is no diff
ference in the plumage and fancy
points" Of natural and artificial chickens,
but as a general thing brooder raised
fowls are smaller and less stalwart than
their kinsfolk from the old fashioned
coops. When the conditions are perfect,
when the chickens are Matched in an in
cubator with an interior uniform of tenn
perature and plentiful Of humidity, and
kept quietly, in the dark, until they are
strong on their legs; when they learn at
once the way to their brooder, and never
get chilled; when they have exercised
enough while feathering: they may grow
into fine breeding stock-ideal cOckerels
and pullets. Such up bringing is sue
cessful imitation Of q good hen, who
comforts the wretched wet chickling in
her downy breast until it is dry and
strong, and who calls it to her when it
first complains of cold. and sternly Or
ders it home if it wanders too far in its
first feeble days.
But, unfortunately, the other side OF
the story is more frequently true. AS
matter Of fact, there are twenty different
temperatures inside Of most incubators.
Especially is this 50 Of those warped and
shrunken from several years use. The
germs in the eggs, exposed to those vary
ing temperatures, are weakened and de-
formed. While the chicks are "drying
off," after being Matched. they often
complain from the cold more than they
would if under q hen, and no wonder,
for they go crawling restlessly about over
each others sticky bodies. instead OF
nesting in soft feathers. Some machines,
too, have absurdly light nurseries, where
the baby chicks run up and down beg
ging for food before they are thoroughly
dry.
Inc DFOOueIS tncy dIe dl1cA " "a uo
moved into may be good in their way,
but have not the power to call their wan
dering children home, and the amazing
stupidity Of some little chickens will
cause them to stand screaming with be-
wilderment and cold when there Is
shelter foot away from them, heated to
ninety-fve degrees. The brooders are,
however. often not at all good in their
way. Not to mention the great errors OF
overcrowding and dirt. they are often 50
hot as to cause faintness In the chicks,
and to stunt the growth Of those they DO
not kill
Incubators are indispensable now. The
vast majority Of hens refuse to sit In
time to supply most remunerative de-
mand. and our brooder houses make us
independent OF Dame Partlet as far as
the market Is concerned; but unless we
rely on her for breeding stock our poui-
try may sadly deteriorate.

CHICAGO, April 2j.-At the headquar.
ters OF the carpenters it is said that the
strike bids fair to last a couple OF
months. Its duration the strikers think,
VIII depend on the lenth of time neces-
sary for the Boss Carpenters association
to grow strong enough to employ seven
elghths of the strikers. The new organ.
ization has secured some additions, and
now claims to be able to give work to
over 4 900 men.
Won't He Done on Time.
The mammoth office buildings, which
were to have been completed by June /,
are now in an indefinite state as to the
date of occupancy. Meanwhile, business
men who expected to occupy stores or
offices In the new structures find them
selves obliged to remain in their old
quarters, and in many instances at a
much larger rem. The same condition
applies to the big apartment houses and
their respective tenants.
1aiio~S.
The tailors employed in the shops that
do the WORK for large manufacturing
houses dealing in ready made clothiAg,
mainly girls and women, complain that
the bosses are cutting the prices hereto
fore paid for the making of garments,
chiefly vests and trousers. and
increasing tine number of hours Of
work required. They are determined to
appeal for eight hours. and an increase
or compensation. A demand has been
made upon the bosses for the conces-
slons cited. Their wages are said to be
yer, low.
Bricklayers.
In rive brick yards the bosses have
agreed to comply with the demands of
the men. and work has been resumed.
The demand that 1000 bricks. instead of
5000 as formerly. be recognized as a
days work, and they further ask an in
crease OF fifty cents per day in wages.
They men are hard brickmakers, in dis
tinctiOn from machine brickmakers,
who are paid on different basis.
Harnessmaktrs.
The demands of the harnessmakers for
an increase of 10 per cent. on the present
rate OF wages, both for day and piece
work, and the establishment of a min
imum rate per day for filters and stitch
ers hired by the week, have been pre-
sented to the manufacturers. 1t is
thought concessions will be made that
will avoid a strike.
Ga.fitters.
The gasfitterS will go out on a strike
next Monday morning to. enforce de
mand for the eight-ho day and min
imum rate of wages of $3.50 per day
The gasfitters are now receiving widely
