Reds. of an excellent strain, and be-
lieve they cannot be excelled as a gen.
eral purpose fowl. The chicks are es-
pecially hardy and vigorous.
Our main object is to raise chicks,
the pullets for layers and the cockerels
for broilers and roasters. Eggs being
the secondary object, we do not feed
hot MASKS and stimulating food, thus
weakening the hens by forced egg pro-
duction in winter. Artificial incubation
and broodng is the method If many
chicks are to be raised. The old hen
has some advantages, but she is veX-
atious creature to manage, and gener-
ally gets broody too late in the season
for raising either early pullets or
broilers Chicks Matched later than
June LIST are improbable. The house
is against side hill facing southeast.
The earth was dug down to level for
the floor, the bank against the north
west wall, making the house warm. Two
large windows on the front are left
wide open all summer, and nearly
every day in winter. The floor is earth,
covered with straw six inches deep In
the morning, in winter, the fowls are
given oats and barley in the sheaf
which they proceed to thresh, warm
water and any kind of vegetables or
parings from the kitchen Water cress
and winter radishes are good for
change, and mildly stimulating. About
eleven o'clock they have warm water
again, cut green bone, and dry, ground
feed, principally bran, is placed in
trough apart About four o'clock the
feed is shelled corn which has been
soaked in hot water for about half an
hour Grit, charcoal, crushed oyster
shells and cut clover are kept constant
ly within reach, also road dust in
large shallow box for busting.
The very first mistake was in trying
to raise some incubator chicks in

homemade broOder. The best brOOder
on the market is none too good, and
cheapest in the end. The next difficulty
was lice on the half-groWn chicks. This
was overcome by removing the perches,
and covering the floor of the roosting
coops with wood ashes. Twenty chicks
killed in one night by a weasel was
the next trouble. Further loss in that
way was prevented by shutting up
closer at night, but this led to the next
trouble, lack of ventilation. The two
difficulties are solved now by making
the entire fronts of the roosting coops
and covering the windows in the hen
house with inch mesh wire netting.
We lost heavily of the later Matched
chicks, many dying every day from
no apparent cause At last we saved
a small remnant of the broods by
learning that the weed with attractive
berries in the runs was deadly night
shade At first our hens had free
range, but we found the woods close
by with their tangled underground,
was too good a lurking place for enc,
mics, and for hidden nests. So we had
to yard the hens, letting them out
short time towards night. The per-
plexity of selecting breeders, and OF
fowls to sell or kill, is obviated by trap
nests | believe it is the only way to
build up a paying business. One more
trouble is hens eating eggs. China
eggs placed in the nests and scattered
about on the floor is good preventive.
Pulets get tired of examining and
picking them after while and leave
them in disgust. When the real eggs
begin to appear they attract no at
tention and are safe. l hope some OF
these hints may help some inexper-
fenced one to get launched into
pleasant and successful business.

Actual Experience in Poultry.

quickly and cheaply, we began with a
picked-up flock of various breeds and
of no particular breed, writes Mrs. l..
Won Haeseler, in telling of her ex-
periences with poultry. This / now
think was a mistake. Some breeds
are so much more active than others
that all had not a fair chance. The
mongrels proved to be of run-out stock,

more meat than any other breed of
the same weight. She will have at
least one-third more real meat and
of much better quality than the Leg
horn, although both of same weight.
The Plymouth Rock is an ideal fowl,
the Brahma the bird for brOilers, as
young chicks grow much faster; the
Minorca for large eggs. The Leghorn
has many good qualities; the Ham
burg has more good qualities-but the
fowl that beats them all is a cross be-
tween the thoroughbred Plymouth
Rock and the Hamburg. They are
extra good both summer and winter,
layers of good sized eggs, do not want
to sit often, continuous layers; are
tame and domestic, a four-fOOt fence
being plenty high; they make good
mothers, and as table bird they not
only have the delicious, tender, juicy
meat peculiar to the Plymouth Rock
but also have the heavy breast of the
Hamburg, giving a fowl heavy, meaty
and of choice flavor. Several hens in
my flock of the combined breeds of
Plymouth Rocks and Hamburgs weigh
no less than seven and onehalf to
eight pounds each and as layers are
hard to beat In fact, for an all-round
fowl, combining more good qualities
than any other, is the cross between
the Plymouth Rock and Hamburg
pure and good stock. At least such
has been my experience.
If the Eastern Farmer Only Knew!
From the scarcity of eggs and the
consequent high prices paid for them,
it would certainly seem that no more
desirable opening for engaging in the
poultry business could be found than
on Puget Sound, says the Mount Yer
non Argus-and The Ranch heartily
endorses the statement. Eggs are
high all the year round and when it
comes to importing more than half
of our egg supply from eastern states
it is about time for something to be
doing in the poultry line in this state.

STRIPED CRUNTS KISSING.
Little Fishes in New York Aquarium
Afford Amusement to
Spectators.

In one of the tanks at the aquarium Is
lot of striped grunts, handsome little
fishes from Bermuda, which do one thing
that is peculiar and different from any
thing done by other fishes in the aqua
rum, relates the New York Sun.
If The outside of the glass front OF The
tank is stroked softly and repeatedly
downward with the finger tips, the
pretty fishes will come swimming toward
it, opening wide their mouths, which are
within of beautiful red.
When near the glass two of them,
each with its mouth wide open, Will APP
proach each other and gently lock jaws
in an attitude Of kissing. Sometimes
when the glass has been stroked as
many as four pairs Of the striped grunt
have gone through this performance
at once.
Why the striped grunts do this no.

DIVORCE IN ENGLAND.
Report of Consul General Evans Shows
That 1t Is Increasing
Rapidly.

Interesting statistics concerning d.
yorce proceedings in England and Wales
aer contained in an official report from
! United States Consul General Evans. at
| London. The number of petitions for
| dissolution of marriage filed in 1902
was 1850 as against 900 filed in 1901.
OF the petitions filed in 1902, 609 were
| died by husbands and 44l by wives.
The prompt action of the courts is
shown by the fact that of the total num-
Der Of petitions filed, $50 were set for
trial during the year Judgments were
rendered as follows: For husband,
plaintiff, In 397 cases; for wife, plaintiff,
In 2S4 cases; for husband respondent,
in II cases, and for his wife, respondent,
In ten cases. The annual number of
petitions filed during the past five years
was S53.
The population of England and Wales
Is about 33,000.000, showing, says Con-
sui General Evans, that there was one
petition for dissolution of marriage In
some form fled in the courts in 1902 for
about each 1880 population. He adds
that experimental or trial marriages,
seemingly, are not encouraged by the
ease Of securing divorce, and that the
sentiment of the people, sustained by
the courts. is clearly against divorces
or the divorced. The established church,
he says Is against performing the mar
rage ceremony where either party to
the proposed marriage Is a divorced
person
