Airing the Eggs.

Many beginners do not understand
why the eggs in the incubator should
not be turned or aired after the eigh-
teenth day. The reason is that at this
time the chicks are getting ready to
pip" the shells, and they shape them
selves around so as to pip on the up.

eggs be moved when the chicks are
about to hatch the bill may be torn
The fluid Will naturally flow to the
opening and dry them there, holding
the chicks head tight. 1t does not
take long to shut off life in this condi-
ton.

about 1919 delivered near this spot the

BUGS with X-Ray Eyes.

\ German scientist has discovered
that many insects. such as moths and
butterflies, have X-ray sight. This
means that the eyes of these insects
can see with something similar to the
X-rays objects invisible to human eyes
unless aided by a Horoscope. If or
binary sunlight has enough of the
X-rays in it for the butterflies to see
clearly, the world must be strange
sight to them. This scientist believes
that they can see through the clothes
and flesh of human beings and behold
US walking about in our skeletons clad
in a translucent covering Of flesh.

Cows and Farm Fertility,

Prof. e. B. voorhees, Of the New
Jersey Experiment Station has figured
it out that d single well-fed COW will
produce in year 107 pounds of nitro
gen, 81 pounds of phosphoric acid and
about 81 pounds Of potash. At this
rate it is easy to see why dairy cows
are such a powerful factor in increas
ing the fertility Of the farm, when. the
manure is properly cared for.

ARAGO'S NOSE.
II Was Enormous In Size, but X Was
Safely Anchored.


Emmanuel Arago, the French politi-
clan, was a nephew of the noted as
tronomer and vas considered hand
some man, although his nose was ex-
tremely conspicuous. AT one time he
was travelling by train to Versailles
when a child who was in the same car
and who had watched Arago for some
time with dilated eyes began to cry.
In vain did the child's mother en-
deavor to calm the perturbed juvenile.
The poor mother was in despair, and
as the shrieks grew more and more
piercing Arago felt bound to interfere
and see what he could do. He said to
the child:
what ails you, my dear!'
Thus addressed, the child sobbed
out. "Take off your nose"
Arago looked at the mother, who
grew very confused and said:
"Ah, monsieur, excuse me-excuse
my SON."
But, madame" said Arago, what
does he mean?'
The mother then explained that she
had during the carnival taken her
child TO see a number Of persons in
masks and with false noses and he
had become so excited that he could

by an unfortunate occurrence" she
added. I'VE got Into the same carriage
as you. whe no doubt for some good
reason are prolonging the carnival.
But you see what a deplorable result
has followed. Let me then beg Of you
to have pity on Il poor mother and
take off your nose"
But, madame" said Arago, stupe-
fed
"a little more and my child will
have commissions" shrieked the moth
err Take off your false nose"
But. madame" said Arago in de-
SPAR, that is impossible. This is not
false nose, but my own"
Impossible impossible" cried the
agoniZed lady.
"Touch It," said Arago.
The lady gave pull at Arago's
nose, but 1t did not come off In her
hand. as she had expected.
"A thousand pardons." she said, but
pray-oh. pray. hide 1t with your hat"
So Arago continued his journey with
his nose in his hat, and the chllds
screams gradually subsidized. Arag"
himself used to tell the story with
much glee.
