Setting Hens.

II frequently happens that a hen will
sit day or two and just about the time
the eggs are spoiled she will conclude to
quit, and 1t is usually pretty hard to
persuade her to begin again.
To prevent accidents OF this kind 1t
is best to let the hen sit for few days
before trusting her with clutch Of
eggs. Pullets are quite apt to change
their minds on the subject of sitting,
and when sitting hens are scarce this is
very annoying.
TO prevent this, every sitting hen
should have a nest which can be made
quite dark while she Is brOoding. This
may be accomplished by having the nest
in a box with only hole in one side
large enough for the hen to creep in at.
When she goes on the nest the hole
may be turned toward the wall Of the
room she is sitting in. This will keep
the nest dark and at the same time pre-
vent it from becoming too close from
lack of ventilation.
No sitting hen should be allowed to
sit where hens can get into her nest and
bother her, for this often results in
