When the brood is Matched it is neces-

some sort. The brooder, as it is called,
is similar in size and shape to the incu-
bator 1t is however, provided with a
wooden disk made TO fit neatly the in

at Will To the under side of this disk
is fastened a covering of sheepskin with
the long woody fleece combed out. in the
recesses of which the chickens seek
shelter as under the wings of a hen.
Just enough manure is piled about it
to provide sufficient wormth, and in the

to serve as a pathway for the young

so injurious to the young chickens, is
avoided.
If you would like to know what profit
may be made from an incubator you
may logically reckon thus: Hens have
a laying capacity and Matching ca
pacity. On an average a hen will lay
100 eggs annually. She sets on say
twelve. and matches out of this number
eight or nine chickens Now if the other
lis eggs which are only worth about
cents each were put into an incubator
it would be safe to assume that the
product would be ninety good fat pull
let's worth at least 30 cents each or S45.
Say the care and feed of those amount
to 80 per cent of their value, the net
profit of one hen would he $3.50.

No Action in tho Eagan On o.

WASHINGTON, Jan. I'm answer ia
a direct question Secretary Alger said
that the war department had taken no
action in the case of Commissary Gen
eral Eagan. 1t was apparent during the
day that this matter was receiving ar
tention, and in fact the commissary gen
eral himself spent some time closeted
with the secretary. Three distinct lines
of action were talked of as within the
line of probability. The first was a
strong letter of reprimand to be ad-
dressed by the president himself to Cen
eral Eagan, stating that but for the i'm
munity he had promised all witnesses
before the commission he would have
court martialed him. The second line
was an actual court martial, while the
third was court of inquiry. The pur-
pose Of the latter would be, it is said, to
place upon military tribunal the re-
sponsibility for deciding whether or not
General Eagan should be tried by court
martial. OF course the court of inquiry
might go long way into the matters
which led up to tho attack contained in

against General Eagan for the utterances

eating commission last Friday, but in

with the matter in its own way.
In the excitement created by this in
