MATCHING AND BRooDINo.
Timely Hints Concerning This Feature
of Poultry Raising.
overheating is Injurious.

OVerneatlng is injurious.
Turning the eggs prevents blood yes
sells growing fast to the shell. 1t also
prevents the contents of the egg from
settling.
When chicks form near the small
end of the shell they are apt to die in
the shell.
In starting the incubator, fill it to
its capacity with eggs, as there will
be poor results when only partially
filled.
In holding eggs for Matching do not
allow them in a temperature higher
than 60 degrees.
possible. Large and small ones placed
in the machine at the same time, will
not give good results.
When eggs are kept in a very warm
place, the germ is apt to start, and
they will quickly spoil when placed
in the incubator.
In placing eggs in the incubator see
that the large end is slightly higher
than the small one.
Especially for better regulation of
the temperature the bad eggs in the
incubator~ should be tested out.
An authority says that the embryo
chick may not be killed by overhead
ing, but the vitality of the blood is so
impaired that the chicks very
slowly, if at all.
Overheating destroys the red cor
puscles of the blood. The higher the
heat the winter the blood becomes.
When an egg containing a live germ
is surrounded by a lot of eggs con-
tanning dead ones, it is in no condition
to get the proper heat, and will have
to be a very vigorous germ If it
matches out at all.
In proportion to contents. there Is
more she'll surface in a small egg than
a large one, SO that to run an incuba-
tor to suit the small egg will be too
damp for the larger ones, where mois-
ture is used, and vice versa.
For a healthy growth of chicks, a
warm, dry and sunny room will COM
pensate for a lack Of sunshine,
Don't forget in starting the incuba-
tor to clean out the heat or fiue pipe
into which the lamp chimney extends,
to put in a bran new wick, to clean all
the parts of the lamp thoroughly, hav-
ing the burners as near as possible
as bright as when they are new. Use
good sewing machine oil OF all the
bearing parts of the machine after
first carefully removing the dust and
dirt.

most side by side, waited there, out
from behind this bend shot a canoe.
my God, it's Pete Bolduc! Look
out" almost yelled Levi, and Halt!
Surrender" from Hersey, as two
rifles were leveled at the oncomer.
Then one instant's sight of a red and
SCARED face, a quick reach for a rife,
a splash of water, an overturned canoe
and with a curse the astonished half!
breed dived into the underground.
Two rifles spoke almost at the same
instant from the waiting canoes, one
answered from out the thicket. A
thrashing, struggling something in the
filed canoe next caught all eyes, and
Levi, leaping into the waist-deep
stream, grasped and lifted a dripping
form.
1t was Chip!
And then came another surprise; for
down a sloping, thick-grown hillside,
something was heard thrashing, and
soon Old Tomah. his clothing in
shreds, his face bleeding, appeared to
view.
Calculating to a nicely where he
could best intercept and head off the
escaping h~alf-breed, he had crossed
four miles Of painless underground in
less than an hour, and reached the
stream at the nearest point after it
left the lake.
How Chip, still sobbing from the
awful agony Of mind, and dripping
water as well, greeted Old Tomah;
how Hersey, ~chagrined at the escape
of the h~alf-breed, gave vent to NUT
tered curses; how Martin joined them

and nailed on the front and back, each
having a ship-lap as shown. Then the
middle piece is s%hip-lapped, and slides
to and fro, forming a tight cover that
holds in place however much the
case is moved about.
Although I do not use a wedge in
my cases, writes the correspondent of
Bee Culture, I found some difficulty
in removing the first section, but
overcame that by putting a thick piece
of cartridge paper around one section,
with the ends upward long enough to
catch hold of, and lift the section out.
Directions could be printed on this
paper. The difficulty might be over
come by letting the cover run from
front to back instead of from end to
end. Then the wedge could be re-
moved easily; but the piece of paper
for lifting out the first section, I
think, should still be used.

When all was said and done, Old
Tomah, grim and silent as ever, al

man could do or would try to do,
washed his bloody face in the stream,
drank his fill of the cool water, and

as If 1t were a single, tipped 1t, turned

Ray would have felt 1t a proud priv

his life before.
Somehow this hapless waif had
grown dearer to them all than she or

CHAPTER X.

For two weeks the little party at
Birch Camp first watched and then
began to enjoy themselves once more.
September had come, the first tint of
autumn colored every patch Of hard
wood, a mellow haze softened the out
line of each green-clad hill and noun
tain, the sun rose red and sailed an
%unclouded course each day, and gentle
breeZes rippled the lake. The forest,
the sky, the air and earth, all seemed
in harmonious mood, and the one dis
cordant note, fear of this half-breed,
slowly vanished.
Chip resumed her hour of study
each day; a little fishing and hunting
was INDUCED in by Martin and the
two officers; wild ducks, cartridges,
deer and trout supplied their table;
each evening all gathered about the
open fire in Martins new cabin, and
while the older people chatted, Ray
took his banjo or whispered with Chip.
These two, quite u%nguessed by Angie,
had become almost lovers, and as it
was understood Chip was to be taken
to G~reenvale, all that wonder-world to
her, had been described by Ray many
times. He also outlined many little
plans for sleigh rides, skating on the
mill pond, and dances which he and
she were to enjoy together.
His own future and livelihood were
a little hazy to him. These matters
do not impress a youth of 18; but of
one thing he felt sure,-that Chip with
her rosy face and black eyes, always
tender to him, was to be his future
companion in all pleasures. 1t was
love among the spruce trees, a sum
mer idyl made tender by the dangers
interrupting it, and hidden from all
eyes except Old Cy's, who was these
young friends favorite.
But these days of mingled romance
and tragic happenings, of shooting,
fishing, storytelling and wildwood life
were nearing their end, and one ven
ing Martin announced that on the
morrow they would pack their belong
ings and, escorted by the officers,
leave the wilderness.
The next morning Old Cy took Ray
aside.
II want a good square talk with We,
my boy" he said, IAN I'm goin' to do
we a good turn If kin. Now to begin,
l s'pose we know yer aunt's goin' to
take Chip to Greenvale m gin her a
chance at the schoolin' she sartinly
needs. Now you're callatin' to go long
N have a heap o. fun this winter.
I'm goin' to stay here n keer for
AmZi. This is the situation bout as
it is. Now you hev got yer e%ddication,
n the next move is to make yer way
in the world n arm suthin', an ez a
starter, l want We to stay here this
winter with me n trap. The woods
round here is jist bristlin' with spruce
gum that is worth a dollar-fifty a
pound, easy. We've got two months
now, fore now gifts deep. We kin
live on the top shelf in the way o. fish
m game, Well ketch a bar and
pickle his meat N smoke his hams,
and when spring comes, I'll take We
out with mebbe five hundred dollars
worth of furs n gum ez a beginnin'.

Educate the Boys.

Kansas is devoting much attention
to the education Of the boys and girls
OF the farm. The state agricultural
college has, for a number Of years,
been conducting corr contests In near
ly every county seat in the state. The
boys are given a supply of seed corn
and in the winter the best ears from
the product are taken to the county
contest. The ten winning the best
scoslng are sent to the state agricui-
tural college for a special course In
corn growing. Last year over 5000
boys took part and this year 1t is esti-
mated that twice the number will par

Because the Poplar Bluff Tigers failed to put in an appearance at For est Park Thursday afternoon, when they were scheduled to meet the Pine Knots in the first of a series of games, which will be finished today and to- morrow. Umpire Crotty declared the game forfeited by score of 8 to . in Pine Bluffs favor.
 Poplar Bluff played at Hot Springs Wednesday and had ample time to come to this city in time for yester- days contest. The Tigers could have left the Springs Wednesday evening and reached here that night or grant ing that they missed that train there were two other trains from the Val ley of Vapors that could have brought them here for the afternoons game. The most convenient of the trains was that of the Pine Bluff and Western Railway Company, which leaves Hot Springs each morning little after Il o'clock and reaches this city at 2:30 D. m.
 A telegram was received here yes terday morning from the manager of the Poplar Bluff team stating that the train was late and that he and his men would not reach here in time for a game. He gave no other reason, but the absence of his team from Forest Park yesterday Is inexcusable. The Tigers will probably arrive this morning and play this afternoon.
 Manager Deaver announced yester day that he had signed a new catch CT, H. B. Terrell, Memphis lad, who will be given a try out probably today. He is an amateur but has played independent ball for the past few
 years. Catcher Berry is still ou! of the game with broken thumb.

Gen, Cabel Senior Officer.

Atlanta, May 2S.-General Clement
 A. Evans, who is in command of the Tennessee department, will issue or ders to the department formally an nouncing the death of General Lee as a great loss to Confederate Veterans in the whole country. Tt is a loss : which cannot be supplied said Gen. eral Evans today after the announce ment of his death had been received. A general order to call on all veterans to bear in mind that while the joy of their coming reunion has been bur-
 jed in mourning, they may show love

 General Evans said the death of
 General Lee leaves General Cabell of
 Dallas, Tex, the senior officer of the
 veterans and he expected General Mickle of New Orleans, adjutant gen. eral of the United Confederate Vet erans. to issue orders on his death
 late in the day.
