OUR RURAL TOPICS.
Some Practical Suggestions for Our
Agricultural Readers
FACTS ABOUT HATCHISe.

We have been observing the difference 10
time it takes to hatch chickens of the different
breeds. Our observations have not been very
exhaustive, ard were confined to but two
breakdown Leghorns and Silver-laccd
Wyandottes. Two hens were given setting
of eggs at the same time and both hens kept
to their nests during tie process of incubation.
They were given tho eggs on tho evening of
April Is. Tho same feed was given to both
hens, and consisted OF grain. soft aud green
food, with plenty of fresh water
On the 10Th day the first chick that appeared
was Brown Lcghorn, and they kept on ap-
pearing until the whole 13 were out before the
Goth day was up. The WyandOttes did not ap-
pear SO soon. Up to tho 2lst day there was no
sign of Wyandotte chicks appearance. and
IL was not until near the end Of the 2ist day
that the first chick appeared. The Wyaudotts
Breeder who has given US several short notes
on poultry, has also observed tho length Of
time of incubation before the appearance of q
chick.
From these observations we draw the con-
clusion that it takes longer time for the
Matching of Silver-laccd Wyandotte than it
docs for q Brown Leghorn. Whether or not
this same conclusion holds good in cases of
other breeds we cannot say, but if there are
any Of our correspondents who raise either the
above breeds or others, and who have taken
any notice of the period of ucubation, we will
be glad to hear from thom.
In the case of the Wyandottes We had come
eggs which were either not fertile or in which
the chick had died at some stage of the incu-
baton. There arc several good ways TO deter
mine whether the chick in the shell is ready,
or nearly ready, to come out. II the chicks
have not all appeared by the 21st day, gently
lift the eggs left In the nest. II the egg is
heavy there is chick in the shell; if it Is
light the egg is not fertile. After person has
handled one or two settings of eggs be will be
able to judge very closely the size of the chick
in the shell.
Another way Is to take the eggs and put
them in vessel Of hot water. This way is
something on the order that housewives use to
find out if an egg ia fresh or rotten. The eggs
which are not fertile will float, while the eggs
which contain the chicks will sink. II the
chick is nearly ready to appear in the poultry
world slight trembling motion will be OBJ
served of the shell which contains him. And,
It Is said, this way of testing the eggs will IA
cilitate the appearance of the chick, as prob
ably the she'll may be too hard for the chick to
break, which the water will considerably soften,
and mako it easy for the chick to break. Care
should be taken when this way of testing the
egg ia used that the egg does not remain in
the water too long. as the chick, if there be any
In the shell, Is liable to be cooked to death.

Nebuchadnezzar was greatly distressed over
dream which he had, He woke from II in
fear, and was an nxi0us for its explanation. But
he could not recall the items in the dream. He
called together his advisers, wise men, supposed
to be able to tell the future. He demanded
they tell him the dream and explain it. If
able to explain, why not tell the dream itselff
He threatened them all with death If they
failed. Daniel was in fact one OF them, and
he came to the rescue of all. He believed God
would help. He called together his three as
sociates, and ell made earnest prayer for rev.
elation. 1t was granted. and Daniel went to
the King with the explanation.
Daniel showed that the image represented
four Kingdoms Babylon, Medo-Persia. Greece,
Rome-gold, silver, brass iron-head; chest,
with arms; diaphragm; abdomen, with thighs;
lower limbs. G.: 32-35.) The gold, silver, and
brass were unmixed The iron had clay min
gled with it. Tho gold represented Babylon;
silver, Medo- Persia; brass Greece; iron, Rome.
Tho limbs Gron or Rome) had 10 toes. Clay
and iron cannot mix, and thus is indicated the
easy severance OF the Roman Kingdom.
But we notice that these four Kingdoms were
fated. A stono (Christs Kingdom) WAS to
crush them all and to occupy thoir places. All
four have passed away, and Christianity Is fast
gaining possession of the entire world.
We may outline the image thus;

Now that the election is over we
propose to devote the columns of the
TRIBUNE largely to the interests of
Morris and Stevens county, to us a
much more interesting matter than
dazzling in the dirty pool of politics.
That is to say, when the political tide
turns against us. In order that we
may the better present the claims of
Stevens county as a desirable home
for new settlers, we respectfully ask
the assistance of all who take an in
terest in the progress of our county,
by writing for our paper upon any
subject which may interest our peo-
pie We should like to have cor
respondent of the Tribune in every
town in the county. Give us items
of local news, articles in relation to
farming and experiences in regard to
the best methods in producing crops,
&C., &c. Bear this in mind, friends,
and send us your communications,
and you will not only aid us in MAX
ing more interesting paper, but will
do good thing for the county.

Minnesota Sugar Beets.
Those Raised by Milo Camp, of Stevens
County, Show the Largest per
cent. OF Sugar.

A washington dispatch to the Min
neapolis Tribune of Monday states
that many samples of sugar beets are
being received at the agricultural de-
partment from Minnesota. It will be
seen below that the beets raised by
Milo Camp of this county contain the
highest per cent of sugar of any of the
late samples received. Prof. Wylie
says that the experiments of the past
two seasons prove conclusively that
there is immense profit to be made in
the cultivation of beets and the man
ufacture of sugar. He says that if
the capitalists of the country had any
confidence in the financial policy of
the government, plenty of money
would be forthcoming for the manu-
facture of beet sugar and sorghum.
He has found in presenting the facts
to capitalists that there was a wide
spread fear that the bounty on sugar
may be repealed within the Is years
fixed when the law was enacted. He
says that the department has fully
satisfied the business men as well as
the farmers of the country that great
and profitable industry might be
built up in this line. The expert
ments made and the facts cleaned
fully justify the views Of the depart
ment. When the capitalists who have
taken this subject under consideration
become satisfied that the bounty will
not be taken off of sugar, a great i'm
petus will be given the industry in
the Northwest.
A few of the late samples from
Minnesota show the following results
in the production of sugar: Gilbert
Gutterson, Lake Crystal, percentage
of sugar in beet, 1886; W. D. Japs,
Carver, 11.54; Carl johnson, Chisago
City, 1918; F. G. Meade, Jr., Alexan-
dria, 1891; W. E. Poe, Cannon Falls,
949; Hartmann Praill, Renville, 1858;
Milo Camp, Morris, 1923; G. P. Lin
stad, Lawndale, 1919, and B. M.

Water Works For Morris.
A Few of Its Many Advantages Pointed
Out-The Course of Wisdom.
To the Editor of the TRIBuNE:

To the Editor of the TRIBUNE:
Here is one thing that puzzles the
writer, and that is why Morris doesn't
have wnterworks. 1t has an abund.
ance of supply easily reached and at
very small cost compared to almost
any town tho water ever visited.
Now word or two as to the reas.
ons why such a supply should be
4 Immediately procured. The average
rate OF fire insurance in this town is
nearly or quite three per cont, Such
a rate is ruinous. In the sections
where wooden buildings are most
closely assembled it is four per cent
Now waterworks would save on an
average of two and half per cent
direct upon this to every mans burn
able property.
And that isn't all by any means,
Very many farmers of Stevens county
are within the city limits and a proper
water supply would be of great value
to them in case of fire upon their
property-just as much value in fact
as to the property owners in the CEN
ire Of the city.
Waterworks in Morris would, as a
guard, increase, the day they were
completed, the value of every foot of
property in it to very heavy extent
and advance progress more than any
other enterprise could in, ten years.
And the cost would be absolutely
nothing to any property owner.
Plenty of interpretations can be found
willing to put in waterworks here at
their own expense, and no man need
use it who does not wish to do SO.
The writer, however, does not make
argument in favor of this plan, but
would prefer to see Morris Or the
county own or control the works that
the property owners of the city who
know better than any one else just
what they need may make their own
plans for protection. The cost would
be but an Insignificant proportion of
what would be saved to them by fire
protection.
One step the writer is glad to know
has been taken toward fire protection
in this progressive town. 1t is to
have electric lights and do away with
the disaster of the uncared for kero-
sene lamps. That is start in the
right direction and the gentlemen
who are back of it deserve credit for
good Judgment and enterprise.
The writer can give very many
other reasons why waterworks would
be a great blessing to the farmers all
over the county, but this will do for
the present. Yours trul ",

"A Friend" sends us the following
tribute to the memory of Mrs. Van
Kleek, who died Nov. Sth, 1892.
" Mother is Dead"

"Mother is Dead"
"MOther is dead!"
Days of weary pain and suffering are DER
And God has called our CANCEL Mother
home
From this world of sin and sorrow
To that world where all is fair
1t has left our home so lonely,
And our grief we cannot tell.
Mother is dead!"
Oh, kiss the pale face!
No being on earth can take her dear pla ce;
No voice so sweet to cheer,
No ear ever ready our SORROWS to hear;
No firm hand stretched out when way
ward feet
In forbidden paths do side,
TO save from the pitfalls her darlings,
her pride.
Mother is dead!'
All, press the cold lips with one last fare
we'll kiss,
Ere the sods of the valley have covered
her breast.
With sorrowful hearts to our home and
and our duties our footsteps we II turn,
For life seems desert since "M0ther is
dead"

We copy the following item from
the Pioneer Press of last Saturday:
About five weeks ago Lippmad Mazur,
Russian Jewish peddler, about six
feet tall, light complexion, full light
beard, dressed in an old blue chin
chilla ulster and a cloth cap with
shields, left Minneapolis with two
horses and a farmers wagon to ped
die notions, dry goods and clothing.
The last heard of him was at Morris.
He had with him black dog which
returned home to Minneapolis yester-
day, but nothing has been heard of
Mazur since he left Morris. Foul
play is feared. George G.. Jacoby, a
friend of the family, has invoked the
aid of the police to trace the man up.
He. has wife and seven children
who are in destitute circumstances.
