given ~ to the cause. The complaint
Is that the chicks either fail to hatch
or, hatching. they fail to live. Why
the embryo should live through the in
cuhation period aud die before hatch
In" is II problem that bothers the in
cuhator operator more probably than
any other. 1t is Il keen disappoint-
mcut To the incubator user to find
after the eggs apparently have pro-
crossed satisfactorily up To the time
Of Matching that % per cent of them,
more or less, have failed to hatch.
This means Il large loss to the poultry
man. and if there were no other prob
lem involved in incubation than that
Of the chicks dying in The shell II
would warrant extended investigation.
The testimony IS very conflicting as
to the efficiency OF incubators. Hatches
as high as 50 to % per cent of FER
tile" eggs are frequently made and as
low as % per cent or less. Some claim
that the fault is in the stock that laid
the eggs. Others claim that the man
who runs the incubator is usually to
III w toiipN ii''i w tA'i''''
and this is very often the case.
IN even more serious problem Is to
hatch the chicks well. Some claim that
ii is easy to hatch the chicks, but hard
to raise them. Some reports are made
to the effect that within four weeks
after Matching every chick has died.
At certain seasons Of the year proba-
81,
die. The cause of This great mortality
Is usually aScribed to faulty methods
Of hrn"ding or feeding. The fact that
the chick may be hatchcd with im-
paired Vitality has not been recognized
fully. The evidence of Vitality should
not be merely that the chick survives
The breeding period. but that ii comes
to maturity with vitality equal to that
of the parent stock and is capable OF
transmitting the same vigor and health
to the second generation.
\ series of carefully conducted i'll
vcs;i.atiols AT the Oregon Agricultural
college has brought out the following
facts as to the comparative efficiency
OF hens and incubators:
From so eggs set. REGULATORS hatch
ed 1:}3 chicks, or COG per cent.
From 20 eggs hens Matched 219
chicks. or ISIS per cent.
Eliminating eggs broken in nests,
the hens Matched $50 per cent of eggs
set.
The incubators hatcbed 1S.J'pcr cent
of "fcrtilc"' eggs, and the hens Matched
96.J per cent.
Eggs incubatcd artificially tested out
22.1 per cent as infertilc, while those
incubatcd by hens tested out lis per
cent.
The incubators showed 1876 per cent
of chicks dead in the she'll and the
hens IS per cent.
Chicks Matched under hens weighed
heavier than chicks hatchcd in in
clbatOrS.

There are many different styles Of

and for several reasons, says Il New
York buttcrmaker. Tubs. pals and
jars cost cent for each pound capac.
ity. are very seldom returned and very
seldom sell for more than the regular
market quotations for dairy butter.
Three and five pound paper and wood
en- boxes make very neat and attrac-
tive packages, but cost still more, and
customers do not always want the
whole of even rs small Il package as
that BY putting in prints each Gus
toner can have any quantity desired
and in form which looks nice on the
table, and with the better class of
trade this counts for nearly as much
as quality, and if they can get both
together they are generally willing to
pay for II.

self prophet, and announced that
the god Aesculapius was about to ap-
pear. The people were credulous,
excitable and eager for a new di-
vinity.
When the great day arrived Alex
ander pretended to discover in pud-
die of water a goose egg, which he
had placed there after removing the
contents, substituting a small en-
bryo snake just born and carefully
sealing the shell with wax When
the multitude had gathered he broke
the she'll and produced the tiny
creature, which in a few moments
grew to be the monster from Pella
by the simple process of substitution.
Thereafter the big snake, believed to
be Aesculapius, led a busy life. He
gave seances, told fortunes in writ
| ing and even spoke freely, with the
aid of the prophets ventriloquial
| powers. Alexander grew rich ana
powerful, kept a small army of re-
tanners and spies, welded no little
influence over the government even
at Rome, and died at a ripe old age
in the fullness of his renown. What
became of the snake nobody knows.
Probably at the last the prophet dis
patched the faithful creature to pre-
vent the discovery of his deception
after his death.
