McEwan was far the shrewder of this
pair of leaders" He saw what was
coming and, as the French say, "ef-

hoping, when it was over, to come out
and revile his colleagues and make him
self a big man at their expense. But
he was just a little too shrewd. Every

Chicka Dying In the Shell.

In our judgment. three principal
things lead to chicks dying in the shell,
namely-eggs not uniformly fresh, eggs
that are not we'll fertilized, and a lack
of sufficient heat.
At all times, and under all circum-
stances, the eggs used should be as
fresh as 1t is possible to have them
Very early in the. season eggs have to
be saved fSr several days in order to
get enougt to fill an incubator, but
fortunately during this cooler period
Of the year, they can be kept In safety
for two or three weeks, and perhaps
longer. providing they are turned often
enough to keep the yolk of the egg
from settling against the lower side OF
the shell and adhering thereto. AS the
season advances and warm weather
comes on. eggs can not safely be kept
that long. 1t is theoretically and prac-
tically true that the germ in an egg,
as soon as the egg is laid, begins to
lose its vitality. At given time this
vitality becomes so far diminished that,

Dairy writer's frequently caution
against placing butter where it will
absorb the odors or flavors from the
decaying vegetables. The worst thing
about this is the need of it. Butter
will absorb odors, not only from stale
vegetables, but from sound ones, and
they impart to the butter flavor that
destroys or Overpowers the true butter
flavor. A case is in mind just now.
The writer was supplying butter to the
former owner of this farm, and one
day planned what was intended for
pleasant surprise, SO, before the cover
was nailed down, some nice apples
with a delicious aroma were placed in
the package, separated from the butter
by cloth circle and a layer of salt.
The surprise was on the other side.
Word came back that the butter was
fine in looks, grain and everything but
flavor; that was not agreeable.
Now, some butter has an unpleasant
flavor that never was near rosy apple,
and there was possibility that the
cause should be sought elsewhere, but
in due time came later report saying
that the butter was excellent after the
surface layer had been removed.
This suggests another point: Con-
sumers should have suitable place to
keep butter after they get it. II the
surface is all the time exposed to the
odors of vegetables and kitchen havors
unciassified. the best of butter will soon
get Off flavor, and the maker will be
under suspicion of furnishing butter
that will not keep.-Agricultural

What Is Cooking Rutter:"

One of the laws of Massachusetts reg
ulating the sale of oleomargarine pro-
vides fine for anyone who sells oleo-
margarine to any person who asks for
butter. Recently an agent of the dairy
bureau of that state went into a store
in Holyoke ard called for butter. Fer
the purpose of conveying information
to the salesman as to the kind of butter
which he wanted, he qualified his re-
quest by calling for cooking butter"
The merchant furnished him oleomar-
garine, and was convicted in the dis
trict court. His case was appealed and
tried in the superior court of Hamp-
den county. Judge Hopkins instructed
the jury, says the New England Farmer
that If they found that cooking but
ter was an article of commerce, sep
arate and distinct from butter, they
should acquit the defendant. II, how
ever. they found that Cooking butter
was merely kind or variety Of butter,
and that oleomargarine therefore was
sold when butter was called for, they
should return verdict of guilty. The
jury after struggling with the case all
the afternoon, finally were unable to
agree.

Milk as n Fire Extinguisher.

A queer claim has been sent to a
number of the companies having de-
partments in Chicago. A fire broke
out in creamery in Wisconsin town
near Madison, owned by John l.. Ell
version. The water supply was soon
exhausted and 1880 gallons of milk
stored in the building were used to ex-
tlnguish the fire. The companies have,
therefore, received claim from Mr.
EMERSON for $64 for damage done to
building and the loss of $500 gallons
OF milk. A similar case is reported
from Ste. Victoire. in Canada. The
Rev. Able Noyseux and his parishion-
ers eXtinguished a fire in a barn by
using milk stored in the creamery. A
fire in Cleveland in February destroyed
the dwelling of William Woodford and
by the use of 700 gallons of wine stored
in q wine cellar he succeeded in saving
that building. The value of this wine
was $500, and this has been allowed
him by the insurance companies, which
recently paid their proportion Of the
loss. The property was insured for one
third its value, and the companies
therefore paid in the neighborhood of
Sloo for the wine used in putting out
the fire. All sorts of liquors have been
used for fighting fires in addition to
water. Recently fire was extin-
guished in an ink factory by throwing
the contents of several watts of ink on
the burning building. In this case.
however, no insurance was carried and
the owner got no pay for the value Of
the stock destroyed.-Ex.

the e., when placed sil temperature
of 1903 degrees, the embryo will die be-
fore the chick is fully formed. AS the
egg grows still older the vitality OF
the germ will so far diminish that 1t
will not start to form at all, the egg
becoming stale and the process OF decay
setting in. An incubator, therefore, can
be run correctly in every particular and
the result be very poor hatch, with
many chicks dead in the shell, simply
because of weakened germs and stale
eggs, or account of the age of the eggs
used.
1t is we'll known that weakly breed
ing stock on either the male or female
side, or both, or breeding stock that IS
over fed or too fat, will produce I'M
perfect fertilized eggs, the germs being
weak. When eggs from such stock are
used, the results will also be CHICKS
dead in the shell at all stages OF devel-
opment. 1t is the same with the human
family. We find in every neighborhood
consumptive children born to some
parents, while other parents are blessed
with strong, robust, vigorous offspring.
These facts are pretty well understood
in regard to the human family, but Jew
incubator operators take them into con-
sideration or attach much Importance
to them in their efforts to hatch large
numbers of chickens artificially and In
this way enlarge their profits in rals-
ing poultry. In this matter, as in all
ut hnrc Sc no ne
person who solves the problem first and
achieves success.
The third cause which results in
chicks dying in the shell at different
stages OF development is the one first
named in this article, lack OF sutli-
cient heat to carry on, at a normal rate,
the process Of chick development. By
natures process it requires given
amount of heat. given length of time
to build up the chick in the egg. In
artificial incubation this amount OF
heat and this period of time should be
initiated as closely as possible.
Another matter that should be men,
toned in this connection is that of ven
tilation. Some claim, among them
Fanny Field, that the chick in the egg,
before it matches, needs no more air
than an unborn kitten does. This
theory has been easily refuted by seal
ing up incubators Theoretically tight,
and by vanishing eggs that were
placed under hens. In no case where
the air was shut out from the chick in
the egg, did the chick succeed in COM
ing into the world alive. The egg itself
refutes this mo air" theory, for in the
large end Of every egg is good sized
air space. 1t was no doubt placed there
for the use of the chick after it reaches
period where it begins to breathe.
The moment chick breaks the shell
and before it comes out, we find it
breathing vigorously. 1t is known that
the shell of an egg is very porous, thus
allowing fresh air to pass into the air
space quite free.y.-Reliable Poultry

the men in gray did not. They pep

The Art OF Breathing.

1t is perhaps one Of the signs OF the
times, to those alert for indications,
that the art of breathing has become
more and more a subject of attention.
Oculists as we'll as psychologists go
deeply into the study in a way hardly
to be touched upon here. Physicians
have cured aggravated cases of insom-
uia by long drawn regular breaths.
evcr-stricken patients have been quiet
ID. stubborn forms of indigestion made
to disappear. A tendency to consump-
ton may be overcome, as some author
lty has within the last few years clear
~ demonstrated, by exercise in breath
ing. Seasickness, too, may be sur
mounted, and the victim of hypnotic
influence taught to withstand the
force OF an energy directed against
him.
There is famous physician in Mum
lsh who has written an extensive work
upon the subject of breathing. He has,
besides, formulated system by which
asthmatic patients are made to walk
without losing breath, while sufferers
from weaknesses of the heart are cured.
At Meran, in the Austrian Tyrol, his
patients almost every royal house Of
Europe is represented) are put through
q certain system of breathing and
walking. The mountain paths are all
marked off with stakes of different
color, each indicating the number of
minutes in which the patient must
walk the given distance. the breathing
and walking being in time together.
AS the cure progresses the ascents are
made sleeper and sleeper
