POOLING WITH AN INCUBATOR.

We have heard people say they had no
time to "foo1 with an incubator" What they
needed to do was to have lot of good old
hens that attended strictly to business and
not fool away any time with inanimate af-.
fairs that required so much attention. We
wonder if such persons have ever fooled
away any time with old hens that would
persist in doing just the contrary of what
is required of them at time when new
sitting of eggs has been intrusted to their,
care. We know of old hens that are as.
tickle as the wind, and to place reliance
on them would be like relying on a brokenI
stick AS long as time lasts we will findt
people who will fool with incubators andI
again others who will fool away great,
deal Of time with hens.
The kind of fooling with incubators to-
which we have reference is fooling with,
them when they ought to have care and at !
tention. Many good matches have beenl

FOUR NEW FARMERS BULLETINS.

The u S. Department of Agriculture has recent
ly issued Farmers Bulletins Nos. 1859, ITO, III and
172.
Farmers Bulletin No. 1863.
This bulletin is of the subseries compiled
from the published reports of the agricultural ex-
pertinent stations and kindred institutions in this

The Packer intimates that the great de-
mand for the Rocky Ford melon and its I'm
equalled popularity in the United States is
due in large measure to the liberal and skill
full advertising it received from the commits
sion house which introduced it to the pub
lie. There is no doubt good deal of foun-
dation for what the Packer says. The COM
mon saying that a good article sells itself
is far from being true. Good advertising
and vigorous pushing are needed also to
bring about the sales. 1t is by no means
certain that there are not other localities in
Oregon and Washington which can produce
strawberries which would be as satisfac
tory on the market as those grown at Hood
River. If such is the case nobody knows it
except perhaps few persons. Hood River
has been advertising its Strawberries and
pushing their sale for the past twelve or
fifteen years. If it had not done so it would
not have built up its great business in the
strawberry line, nor would its growers now
be receiving as much per pound for their
berries as they are getting.-Oregon Agri-
culturist.

Linco1n's Hay.

This story is told of Abe Lincoln: He
was sitting in his office one day when one
of his neighbors, an excellent farmer came
in. This neighbor was inclined to increase
the size of his crops, even after harvesting.
He had given on this particular morning a
skilfu11y padded account of the hay he had
put in.
GIVE been cutting hay, too" remarked
Mr.. Lincoln.

"How many tons"
"Well don't know just how many tons,
but my men stacked all they could out doors
and stored the rest in the barn."

Some of the principal deductions noted in this
bulletin follow.
Horses, like other animals, require a definite
amount of nutrients and energy per 1000 pounds
live weight for maintenance, and an extra amount,
chiefly energy-yieldng nutrients, for muscular
work, the amount being proportional to the char
acter and amount of work performed. ala
The amount of nutrients required increases with
the amount of work done and with increased speed.
More energy is required for climbing an incline
than for travelling on level In descending an
incline of less than 50 AS, less energy is required
than in travelling on level. If the incline is
greater than 50 As, more energy is expended Ito
prevent too rapid descent) than in walking on a
level
The ration should consist of concentrated and
coarse feeds The ratio by weight of coarse fodder
or bulky feed to concentrated feed in the ordinary
ration has been found to be about IL. Crude
fiber may perhaps be fairly considered as the char
acteristic constituent of fodder. The ratio
of crude fiber to protein in the average of a large
number of American rations has been found to be
about 81.

''The Control of the Cooling Moth" by G. B.

tory of the insect, it's natural enemies, together
with preventive and remedial measures.
The bulletin concludes The results secured
against this insect by these methods under the
dtions found in the various apple sections of the
United States very satisfactory. In the in
tested sections of the far West if measures are
used, from 85 to 100 per cent. of the fruit is in
jured By intelligent application of these pre-
ventive and remedial measures, many practical
tests show that from IS to SO per cent of the fruit
may be saved.

IN SCHOOL DAYS.
(By John G.. Whittier.)

by John G. Whittier)
Still sits the schoohouse by the road,
A ragged beggar summing;
Around it still the sumachs grow
And blackberry vines are running.
Within, the masters desk is seen,
Deep SCARED by raps official;
The warping floor, the battered Seats
The jack-knifes carved initial;
The charcoal frescoes on it's walls;
It's DOORS worn sill, betraying
The feet that, creeping slow to school,
Went storming out to playing!
sssss<s~
Long years ago winter sun
Shone over it at setting
Lit up its western window-panes,
And low caves icy fretting.
1t touched the tangled golden curls
And brown eyes full of grieving
Of one who still her steps delayed
When all the school were leaving
For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favor singled;
His cap pulled low upon face
Where pride and shame were mingled.
Pushing with restless feet the snow
To right and left, he fingered
AS restlessly her tiny hands
The blue-checked apron fingered.

Veterinarian Friesinger made trip out to

The high tariffs wherewith the indus
tries of Russia have been protected
have not been so severely enforced in
Finland. A fun reciprocity has, however
never existed in the trade between the
two countries, as Russian products and
manufactures, with few exceptions,
have been allowed free import into the
Grand Duchy, while free imports from
Finland into Russia have been granted
only for products of dairies, agricul-
ture, and handiwork. Yet the conf
mercial relations with Russia have
grown so that during the last two years
the surplus in the whole import of the
country, compared to the export, is 20
be attributed entirely to the trade with
the Empire of Russia. This accounts
for some of the friction between Rus
STA and Finland.

sum for the people of a single country
to realize as the sale of the products
of their farms factories, forests, fish
cries, and mines. The exports of do
nestle products of the United States in
the month of October, 1908, averaged
more than million dollars for every
day in the month, and for every bust
ness day in the month averaged prac-
tically 6 million dollars a day. The
total exports of the months amounted
to $3.50, 370,059, which would average
more than million dollars for every
day in the month and practically mill
lion dollars for each business day in
the month. From the port of New
York alone the exports of the month
were $51, S67,942, nearly million dol
