From Farmers Review: Ever since
Noah built the ark the question OF
whether hens can hatch eggs or not
has been settled. A long while ago,
of course, but not much longer than
the Egyptians hatched eggs in ovens.
Over 1000 years ago the Egyptians
hatched eggs by artificial means, and
yet there are people in this enllght-
ened age that doubt II It can be done.
And the queer part of 1t Is, they even
doubt it when they see 1t with their
own eyes. 1t costs less to run good
incubator than 1t does to feed hens 10
incubate the same number of eggs,
and n good incubator will hatch just as
many or more eggs than an average
flock Of hens. There are good and bad
incubators, just as much as there are
hens that stick to business and hens
that quit the nest. the variation is just
as great. There arc incubators that
are made carefully OF good material
and on the right principle, and there
are others that are made with a view
of profit on manufacture. There are
several good incubators and several
Others that would be a poor invest
ment even though they were gift.
In selecting an incubator the decision
should be made in favor of the work
the machine evidently does instead OF
the argument or fine spun theory be-
hind II; otherwise don't overlook the
material and don't overlook who the
machine does good work for, whether
u is for experienced operators and ex-
perts, or whether for the everyday
poultry raisers and those inexperienced
in operating incubators After you
have selected the incubator, you are
master OF the situation, no waiting for
the hens to get broody, no standing
guard among them TO see IL they go
back to the right nest no Matching out
millions OF vermin in the setting hens

stunting the chicks, and what is OF
still further importance the hens have

How may we know thai we have
decided any question rightly? Some
times we feel obliged to take a ster
that apparently is contrary to self
interest, and certainly is not in ac-
cord with the advice of friends. Every
hoaest person at one time or another
faces this problem. Well one indica
tion that we have decided rightly OF
wrongly is to be found in the state OF
our own mind afterward. Are we at
peace with the decision we have made
If we have peace we may be certain
that we were right, no matter what
others may say about it. This peace
of spirit is Gods seal of approval upon
our course.

From Farmers Review: Flocks
should be kept well housed at night,
and the house that shelters them
should be free from leaks and drafts,
especially in the roosting places. The
droppings should be carefully cleaned

four times a week. Use liquid lice

disinfect once or twice month by
burning flowers of sulphur on a hand
full of shavings. Air the houses we'll

supply a patch of rye for winter pas

free from snow.

WONE
We Can Tell You How to
Overcome PalenesS and
Weakness.

The question is often asked why IL ID
that women of this generation suffer as
they do. Perhaps they are paying the
penalty of indiscretions committed by
their ancestors. Undoubtedly such is
the case, for there has never been an age
when so much care has been exercised
by women in general in regard to Hygiene
and the care of themselves.
There is one thing that we do know
and that is most women need more
strength and more rosy cheeks. They
need to be built up, made physically
strong, given good appetite and espe-
cially see that their blood is made pure
and red.
Nothing will do all this for women as
well, or as quickly, as Vinol. Itstrength-
ems every organ of the body. 1t above
all tones up the stomach and enables
this important organ to obtain all the
nourishment necessary for the replacing
of waste tissue and for the revivifying OF

written by Mr.. w. J. Hamilton of 17O6
Times Street, Keokuk, Iowa.
''My wife was left in very much weak

the ladder. / gave her Vinol and the
