Why Hens Don't Law.

That is question that many poul-
trymen would be glad to have answer

the Rural New Yorker, and Mr. Cos

subject, but he does not profess to be
able to answer it satisfactorily.

Artificial Hatching and Rearing.

1t may seem like too much repeti-
ton for us to publish so many articles
on the subject of the use of incubators
and brooders. Yet it is only by this
method that we can impress it's i'm
portance upon our readers. A writer,
in the Inland Poultry Journal, gives
one of the strongest arguments that we
have ever seen:
The poultryman who has never Op-
Grated an incubator should at this
time begin an investigation of the sub
ject and plan, if possible, to give a

Very few keep poultry as a business.
And of those who have large flocks,
not many go at it in a business like
manner Writing on this subject to
the Poultry Standard, Mr.. James
Shackleton says:
Heretofore, poultry have not gen.
orally been kept in a business-like
way, except i'm a sense so by fanciers
and breeders of standard birds for
sale. Generally, the rest of poultry
keepers do not i'm any sense keep fowls
in business way. 1t is up to every
body to do this, and it means the stop
page of all leakages, taking advantage
of every possible improvement, work
ing i'm all ways for the most there is
in fowls. That cannot be done by
considering any hen as good as any
other hen, nor by hap-haZard matings,
nor by Matching every egg because it
is an egg, nor by rearing chicks so
half of them die and the rest are not
more than half the ultimate worth
they might be. But all over the United
States men are taking up poultry
at least as a side line, men who have
learned that to succeed well in any
business needs strenuously, open
minds, active minds, and absolute at
tention to details. They know well
enough that gO-as-you-please poultry
keeping must be about as silly as
gO-as-yOu-please in any business. To
my mind, these men, or some of them
are likely to supply striking object
lessons that others cannot well ignore
But these men are not the kind that
will take any trouble at all to tell
others how they succeed when they
succeed, their point to view is that the
other fellow must struggle up as they
have done. That is the modern way
of finding the men that can and will
do things, and no better way is pos
sible for that they look on such work
as writings like this as ridiculous
waste of time, for they say the average
person is asleep or half asleep and
remains so. Do you want to be of
the class of whom this may properly
be said? Do you want to keep hens
so they cannot lay more than half
of what they should? Do you want
to keep hens that cannot be made to
lay as much as others? Do you want
to hatch eggs that, even if fertile, can
not produce thrifty chicks?
If you wish to get started on the
road to business poultry keeping, you
have to consider the hen as a valuable
bird, potentially capable of making
more money for you from the same
investment than any other legitimate
investment there is more than is
possible from any investment in dairy
cows however well the cows be kept,
however good as mixers the cows
may be. Better than sheep or hogs,
or any crop. This does not mean that
the hen is to displace anything, but
just that she shall be considered and
treated as a valuable asset that it is
beneath nobody's dignity to handle
well. You will have to get trapnests,
and use them. You will have to act
intelligently in all that trapnests will
show to you. You will have to learn
what constitutes good bird. male or
female, and breed only from such.
There is no other way than this, there
cannot be any other way.
Then you have to revise all your
ideas about housing fowls. They need
fresh air all there is, and not to be
shut up in tight houses winter or sum-

AT the meeting of the State
Democratic Central Committee
last week an effort was made to
pass a resolution declaring that
no democrat who did not support
the nominees of the party at tae
last general election should vote
in the coming primaries. Quite
a lively fight was had over the
resolution, which failed, however.
The committee passed a resolu-
ton requiring that all candidates
must sign a pledge to abide by
the result of the primary and to
support the nominees. This is
the first time in the history OF the
state such a pledge has been re-
quired.
