THAT WHILE RuGARoo.

The government microbe experts GER

called deadly white diarrhea" scourge.
They surely exhaust theories and
printers ink with no result.
This trouble among chicks is simply
the result OF sins Of commission and
omission. II you have this anment
among your birds you are to blame
and not the much abused microbes.
Many OF our chicks died with this
disease in our early experience in the
poultry business, but now we don't
see one case TO the hundred. and we
hereby give you the principal reasons:
Our White Wyandotte breeders bub-
bic over with vigor and give US strong.
plump, livable chicks.
We use no cheap, claptrap hatch
ing and brooding machines, apply lots
OF moisture and aren't afraid 10 cool
eggs.
We never inbred. mate old stock
generally. and one side Of the pen
must at least be two years old.
Matching eggs are carefully selected.

Quietus.
We aren't afraid 10 open the incu-
bator door during the hatch and don't
'mollycoddle" the chicks.
We take them from the incubator
quick as possible and sleep them in
baskets and feed them in boxes for a
few days. SO when they go TO the
brooder they know how to eat. are
hardened 10 the air and can 80 right

their food.
We get our chicks out on the ground

know their brooder. This prevents leg

Carving a Hippopotamus.

To cut up hippOpOtamus is no easy
task. In some places the hide is al
most two and a half inches thick. and
before you have got through a hands
breadth your knife has completely lost
its edge and requires to be resharp-
ened. The head and the feet are put
on one side TO be preserved as trophies
Of the chase. while the remainder OF
the flesh is cut into long thin strips,
which, after they have been dried by
hanging them on the tree branches,
will keep good for very long time.
The ivory Of the teeth and tusks,
which IS Of very fine quality, used to
be employed almost exclusively I'm the
manufacture of false teeth. Nova
days, says the Wide World Magazine.
it is turned to all the purposes Of ordi
nary ivory. AS for the hide, cut into
strips it is made into sticks, which are
as good defensive weapons as one
could wish to possess. Treated with
oil, they become transparent as tortoise
shell and look quite pretty. Out Of
hippOpotamus hide bullock drivers
likewise make thongs for their whips
which are positively everlasting and
fetch relatively speaking quite good
price.
