1t very largely depends upon the
breeding OF the present stock. and the
conditions which influence them a,

The growth of breeding stock should

If the hens have been laying, it il

thus retarding laying for a week or
more just before the eggs are wanted
for Matching.
A hen has been known to "sulk"
for month after having been moved
to new house. Once in laying trim
the hens should not be disturbed.
At poultry shows, where hens were
kept constantly under the eyes of a
crowd, they did not perform their nat.
ural duties.
Eggs should be gathered frequently
to avoid danger of chilling. 1t must
be remembered that the fertile egg is
alive and should be handled like Iiv.
ing organism.
The method of destroying the life

ers, who sell their surplus eggs at the
store, and are anxious that their neigh
bors should not profit thereby, is to
hold the egg firmly in the hand, and
strike out ss if giving blow, by which
violent motion the delicate membranes
in the egg may be ruptured, and all
chances of Matching be destroyed.
In handling eggs in an incubator,
which process is increasing in popu.

during the first five days of incuba-

Amateurs would do we'll to wait un.

an expert can say definitely that a
dark. .shelled egg is fertile after five
days Of incubation.
The testing should always be done
in a warm room with q flannel cloth
thrown over the eggs.
On the night of testing, the lamp
used for heating should receive careful
attention, and the temperature KEEP,
at the right point before the eggs are
removed from the machine, and nc
changes made after they are returned.

NEWSPAPERS THE BEST MEDIUM
No Other Agency Can Match Them for Ad.
vertisins Purposes

No Other Agency Can Match Them for Ad
vertisins Purposes.
Said Nathaniel c. Fowler, jr., to the
New England Dry Goods Association
according to the Hartford Times:
Without deprecialing the value oi
any of the good advertising mediums,
for there are many, wish to state
emphatically, and without qualifica.
tion, that the newspaper is the best
and cheapest advertising medium for
the retail advertiser, and it is the only
local medium worthy of being called
indispensable. cannot too forcibly
impress upon you the intrinsic value
of newspaper advertising space. I
base my opinion upon twenty five
years Of actual experience in weighing
advertising values. l am speaking
through the head of experience. and
not through the hat of conceit, nor
have I any self interest whatsoever.
It makes no difference to me whether
you advertise in the newspapers or in
any other way, or at all.
"The newspaper, from every stand
point. logically, psychologically and
practically, is the most natural adver.
tising medium. Advertising belongs
to the newspaper. The reader buys
the newspaper for the advertising as
we'll as for the news; and many a wo-
man buys it almost exclusively for the
advertising she expects to find in it.
Something for nothing is not busi-
ness, nor is it good advertising. That
which we get for nothing, whether it
be free calendar or free newspaper,
receives little consideration. If l were
a dry goods merchant would rather
have my advertisement in 1000 copies
of any OF the weekly papers paid for
by the readers than to have the same
advertisement in 10000 sample copies
OF the same paper distributed free.
Because the reader pays for the paper.
he proposes to get his moneys worth,
and he cannot get his moneys worth
unless he reads that paper, and he
reads the advertisements because they
are part OF that paper"
