 Avoid too much moisture. l use none now, having nearly spoiled hatch in that way once Cool and air eggs once each day, and turn twice. Don't fuss with eggs or chicks. Extremes of heat, say from 90 to 10 degrees. not too long continued, will make shells tender, and give better matches. Chicks are as healthy as those matched under hens. and have neither lice nor mites to con tend with. One incubator holding POO eggs requires about the same care as three old hens on forty-tiye eggs. A moisture test Is absolutely necessary. The picture shows how the egg should look at different periods. A cave or cellar is the best place to operate an incubator brooder should face the south and have sunshine.-Mrs. L. NJ. Luton, in Farm and Home.

Feeding Damaged Corn Fodder

It is utterly useless to feed damaged corn fodder to cattle that are designed for market, for they will not gain a pound of fat on it. If possible. avoid feeding the frosted fodder at all, but if it must be given the stock, furnish it only after they have been well grained and had fair supply of good rough age; give It to them largely for the pur- pose of keeping them busy when they are In the barn between meals. They will eat little of 1t and break up most of it, so that it can afterward go to the hogs to nose over and from there to the manure heap. In many sections the cat crop was heavy. but in many instances badly damaged. If too badly damaged to sell to advantage. 1t may be fed. to- gether with barley and oilmeal, to great advantage. giving it freely to cattle that are being fattened as well as to milch cows. Tn feeding this mixture the oats and barley should be ground together and the oilmeal added after ward and we'll mixed through.

BACKWARD BABIES.
Their Food Usually at Fault.

When the baby is peevish and back

This can be proved by changing to

weakest stomach and will give the
proper nourishment for baby building.
when our girl was a tiny baby she
had indigestion and although we did
our best nothing seemed to help her.
She was peevish and would not even
try to walk and many times would cry
aloud and seemed to be in much pain.
LAS we had buried three children be-
fore, you can imagine how we felt to
see this little girl wasting away. When
she was two years old she had ter
rible sick spell and we were very much
alarmed. The doctor said she had sum-
mer complaint and indigestion and
told us to use Grape-Nuts. After we
had given her two meals of this food
her bowels were checked and in
short time she was completely well
and strong again.
''Then we noticed how her mind too
began to improve. She had never
talked before but now she frightened up
and understood things that were said
to her. She laughs all the time instead
of crying and now after two years liv-
ing on Grape Nuts she talks well, has
a splendid memory, and is as bright
and healthy and happy baby as any
one would ever care to see. / hope
some other discouraged mother will
read these lines and profit by them"

CHINESE CARPENTERS FEAT.
His Method of Mending n Hole in n
Floor AstOnished n Caucasian Flat
DXVeIIer.

From the New York Times.
Ibid you ever get a Chinese carpen-
ter to stop up a hole in the foor?"
asked one fiat dweller of another. The
other had to admit that he had not.
Then the first proceeded to tell his
wonderful tale. which the listner
would not believe until he tried an
Oriental for the same purpose the next
month.
There was a worn place in the floor
that needed patching, and I thought
I'd show my wife what a carpenter l
was, so 1 sawed a square section of
the p1anks out But cut my hand the
first minute and h%yd to send for the
Chinaman, who has shop right around
the corner. When we got to the door
he grunted something that soundd
like it might mean Where" and l
pointed to the square hole over in a
dark corner. -.
Who he said as he squinted at it
d minute. Then he turned around and
walked out. I thought-well. I didn't
know what to think, was SO amazed
I couldn't understand his giving up
such a simple job. l was still puzzling
over it half an hour later when 1 heard
a knock He said wow or some other
word like it and held up a square
board Then he walked over to the
dark corner of the room and-what
do you think? He put the square in
and it fitted just as if it had grown
there And he had just taken a peep
at the hole from where he was standing
in the door"
The fiat dweller's tale is no fairy
story That's the way a Chinese carpen-
ter stops a hole in the floor.

out, and the Klondike fever was on. l
sent two men out with those rubber
boots. One went to Portland, Ore, and
the other to Seattle, Wash, the two
points at which the chief Quitting
was done by the fellows who got the
gold bug in their heads and started
on the hike to the Klondike. The
bunch were piling into those two towns
so fast that all kinds of Quitting gear
jumped to premium prices, and my men
not only got full value for those rub
Der boots, but in most cases they got
twice the market value for them. So,
out of this buy that looked like the
deadest kind of a frost 1 copied out
as much money as 1 ever did before or
since in a single deal. l never listen
to the wise people any more, in conse-
quence, and I'd as lief buy a pig in a
poke as not, if 1 can get the pig at my

CHICAGO HOTELS ARE
SHORT OF HELP.
Employees of Many Hospitals Have
Gone on Strike.

Employees of Many Hospitals Have
Gone on Strike.
Chicago, June 1.-THE strike in the
hotels of Chicago, impending for the
last three weeks, materialized to-day,
and % of the leading hotels of Chicago
are badly crippled tonight in all de-
partments. All the hotels are running,
however, and the proprietors declare
that the establishments will remain
open for business at any cost.
The complete list of hotels in which
the employees have left follows: Audi
torium, Auditorium Annex, Sherman
House, Grand Pacific, Stratford. Pal
mer House, Briggs House, Bismarck,
Kaiserhoff, Thompson's, Victoria,
Wellington Lakota, Chicago Beach,
Delprado, Vendome, Hyde Park,
Windemere, Metropole, Kenwood, Hol-
land, Great Northern Virginia, Bre>
WORT and Union.
There is every indication that the
strike will be hard fought before one
side or the other gives in. The hotel
proprietors declare that the demands
made by the men are unreasonable, and
the unions claim to have not been
fairly treated by the proprietors, in
that the proprietors agreed to treat
as individuals with the unions and have
not done so.
The proprietors have agreed to sub
init nearly every point at issue to ar
bitration, but the unions will not con-
sent. They insist that their demands
for higher wages and shorter hours
must be granted before they will ar
bitrate anything, and insist also upon
the absolute recognition of the union.
To this latter demand the proprietors
say they will never agree so long as
the strikers maintain their present at
titude.
The employees have hopes of bring
ing to their aid the members of the
teamsters and engineers unions, in
order to keep food out of the hotels
and to deprive the establishments of
a supply of hot water. Present pros
poets are that the strikers will be dis
appointed in these hopes.
Pickets surround every hotel tonight
in which a strike has been declared,
and details of police are patrolling the
side walks around the buildings. So
far there has not been the slightest
evidence of disorder.
All the hotels are open tonight as
usual, and the proprietors are confident
that they will be able to care for all
guests that may arrive.
The members of the restaurant keep
ers' association met tonight and took
action that is practically certain to
shut up a number of their establish
ments in the morning. The restaurant
keepers decided that early tomorrow
they will offer to submit all differences
to a board of arbitration. Seventeen
restaurants are already shut, and the
chances are that nearly all of the big
downtown restaurants will be closed.

DREsSMAKER's MAGNATE.
1t Plays an Important Part in Big
Establishments.

From the Philadelphia Record.
John, buy a magnet while you're
out, Ruth has lost the old one" said
the head of big dressmaking estab-
lishment to her errand boy.
What do you do with magnets
here?' a woman who was being fitted
asked.
1--WE find needles with them.
How do you mean?"
Every day it naturally happens
that my IS assistants drop a great
many needles on the floor. To stop and
look for these needles would take time.
They are all left lying, therefore, tin
the days end, when a cleaner goes
over the room with a magnet, holding
it clos to the floor Every lost needle
instantly, then, jumps up on the steel
and in that way all are recovered in
a few minutes. To recover them by
any other means would take at least
an hour"

CARNEGIA ESCAPED.
Alleged Horse Thief Seemed to
Know n Thing or Two.

Claxton, Ca, June 12.-Summerlin
Carnegie, who was arrested here yes
terday for the theft of w. w. Maund's
horse, an account of which appeared
in yesterdays Morning News, made
his escape this morning about $50
O'Clock, and up to this time, has not
been heard of.
Before making his escape he con-
fessed the crime. 1t seems that he had
been turned over to Mr. J. A. Parker,
constable, for safe keeping last night,
and was to be given a preliminary
trial this morning, and if bound over
taken to Reidsville Jail. However, when
he was given his breakfast this morn
ing there was a fork with it, and it
seems that there was a lap link in the
chain which held him, and he pried it
open and made his escape.
