ovaduct. In this ovaduct there are
usually five at time and while there
they receive the vital spark, the white
the lining and the shell, and are laid
usually one each day. There you will
observe natures plan for the absence
of the male bird several days in sue
cesslon. Therefore in a mated flock
if you will use the sixth egg the hen
lays, it will hatch true to the mating.
My experience is that the first ten or
twenty eggs the hen lays, will hatch
much the best and produce chicks
of very much more vigor; also that
the earlier matches run largely to
cockerels, while the later ones will
contain more pullets.
HATCHING: If you wish to use hens
to do the incubating, it is good
plan to have a room separate from
the main house with not too much
light Make an effort to set as many
hens at time as is convenient. 1t
will require but little more time to
look after six hens than il will one.
Two or three days is none too long
for the hen to sit on china or nest
eggs before giving her the ones you
wish her to hatch. She will have be-
come accustomed to the place, will
have shaped the nest to her notion,
and will have it nice and warm.
Give each hen as many eggs asshe
can conviently cover; watch them
carefully for two or three days to see
that there are no eggs left to get cold.
During the first forty-eight hours the
hen SHOULD sit perfectly quiet as it
takes just that time to start the en-
bryonic chick on its life voyage. We
notice the hen seldom leaves the nest
or turns the eggs during that time.
After they have been quiet for four
or five days prepare yourself with
more fresh eggs, and 60 in fhe even
ing with good light and tester, and
test each egg. A little practice will
enable you to pick out the unfertile
ones When you have completed
your work give each hen the numb Der
you wish her to have Fair sized
hens should have eleven, never more
than fifteen eggs. On the average,
hens will hatch more vigorous chicks
from eleven eggs than any higher
number. We might 90 on through
the twenty one days and describe the
eggs as we have broken them and
seen the spider-like little animals, and
watched the pulsations of the heart
etc., but we will leave this for the in
cubator people. Finally on the TWEEN
tieth day the imprisoned chick has
drawn its last nutrition from the
egg, its vital heat end circulating
blood have absorbed every particle of
substance of the egg, and there re-
mains only the vigorous little animal
anxious to get out. Its prison cell is
punctured by thousands of pores that
always break first at the bigger end
of the egg, because 1t is always less
moist and more brittle at that end.
There too the head of the little chick
is turned for air, and the beak breaks
through the rotten walls, finds more
fresh air, presses hard in that direc-
ton and soon breaks away from all
resistance, and thus ends the period
of its incubation.
When first Matched the chicks will
look larger and occupy more space
than when three or four days old.
The yolk though all absorbed, is still
within the chick undigested, and
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1900-02-22

affords food for at least thirty-six
hours; therefore they should never be
fed duriug that time. We will no
tice that all these first hours the hen
sits quietly brooding her chicks, new
er once offering them food or leading
them where they can drink. The
first necessity therefore for the young
chicks is not food, but warmth, and
good dry warm place for the hen and
her brood will be a step in the right
direction.
Bear in mind their little gizzards
were given them to grind their food,
and If you keep their little crops full
of soft food, you are apt to derange
the system and invite disease. In
my opinion little chicks should new
er be fed raw cornmeal dough. If
yov must and will feed cornmeal,
bake it into an old fashioned johnny
cake and don't forget TO add little
salt and pepper. Feed them little
and often on something dry and hard.
They tell us the best possible feed
Tor the hrSt rev days, is hard- boiled
eggs chopped fine, shells and all and
fed often and in small quantities |
have practiced this for number of
years with good results. Afte they
are week or ten days old prefer to
feed whole grain, such as shrunk
wheat, foxtail seed, sugar-cane seed,
cracked corn ETC., things that nature
designed for them, and that they may
be healthy and grow muscle 1t
appears very natural for them to want
variety of food and to be all day
collecting crop-full. You may feed
literally of anything they like in the
morning, repeat it at noon and again
at night and they will not do nearly
as well as when fed little and often
Keep them growing right along.
Don't forget they have no teeth and
need good liberal supply of fresh
water and grit and the more grit and
puck you have yourself the better will
be your fowls.

Makeshift wedding Rings.

Curious instances have been cited
where makeshft substitutes for the
conventional wedding ring have been
utilized during the marriage ceremony.
One such instance occurred some time
ago in a nearby town, where the ring
was missing Nothing better being
available as a substitute, a curtain
ring was used, and on still another oc-
eas!on the ring handle of the church
Key was utilized. A couple in this state
ased in such an emergency a ring
formed from the outer edge of a coin
and which had been carried by some
one present as a curiosity.
A gallant best man came to the res
cue at recent wedding, when the ring
was not forthcoming at the right time
He drew from his tie the slender stick
pin that had been adjoining it, and,
bending the wire into ring shape, hand
ed the improvised wedding ring to the
distracted groom.

Pass BULLETIN No. /.
WASHINGTON, ID. G., FEB. 3, 1900
The Department Of the Interior has
recently applied to the Department of
Agriculture for complete working
plans to be prepared by the Division
of Forestry, for all Of the national for
est reservations in the west. This is
one Of the most important steps taken
IN the administration of these reserves
since their creation by the president
and will, eventually, transform them
into reyonue-producing part Of the
National economy.
Several years will be required to
execute the project 1t will be nee
essary to determine the present con-
dition Of the forest, what merchant
able timber occurs, and how it can be
marketed TO meet continuously the
requirements OF the people without
injury to the productive power of the
forest.
The Division Of Forestry will begin
work in few weeks in the Black Hills
reserve in South Dakota. This re-
guircs the earliest attention because
its timber supply is needed by large
number Of settlers, miners and mill
men. The extent of this demand will
be investigated and plans devised for
meeting it without exhaustion of the
supply. An estimate of standing
timber will be made and the rate of
growth will be studied in order to
provide satisfactory basis for pre-
dieting the future yield of the forest.
Henry 5. Graves, superintendent of
working plans and + NJ. Griffith, an
expert forester Of the Division, will
begin the work to be joined later by a
corps Of assistants. After a few
weeks Mr. Graves will leave the work
in charge of his assistants and proceed
10 make reconnaissance SURVEYS of
several other western reserves with a
view Of taking them up as soon as
possible, and probably in the follow
ing order: The Bic Horn reserve in
Wyoming, the Priest River reserve in
Idaho, and the Olympic and Mount
Rainier reserves Of Washington. Dur
ing the ensuing summer the Forester
Of the Department will continue the
reconnaissance in the remaining res
ervations.
