TEX RICHARD BUYS
PEERLESS AUTOMOBILE

Tex Richard has been heard from
again. This time it is Sam Shar-
man who hobs up with the informa-
ton that Tex has annexed a big
Peerless touring car to his collec-
tion of automobiles Richard has
always been partial to automobiles
and during his career he has owned
several machines.
Richard got the auto habit while
chasing over the plains and noun
tains of Nevada, where an automo-
bile is as important as three square
meals a day. The demand for big
powerful machines is increasing
every day and, strange to say, the
miners are as well versed on the
value of different machines as the
average salesman at a New York
show. Sharman points with pride
to the selection of Peerless by
Richard as evidence that the fam
Gus Nevada miner and fight pro-
moter knows something of the value
of different automobiles.

for a day or two until the desire is
we'll fixed in her mind. In the mean
time prepare a nest for her in some
quiet place, where other fowls cannot
annoy her, and if you expect to set
other hens plan to have them in the
same room, as it makes it easier to
care for them.
1t is convenient to set two on the
same day, for if the Matching should
be small all the chicks can be given
to one mother.
The nest should be on a level with
the ground or floor, or should have a
little platform in front of it, so the
hen can walk into it carefully and
not be obliged to jump, coming down,
hit or miss, on the eggs. 1t also pre-
vents the adventurous first born from
falling out of the nest.
A dry goods box turned on its side,
with a narrow strip nailed in front,
to keep the straw in, will do nicely.
A convenient size is IS by Is inches.
Fill the bottom with clean hay or
straw, following it a little for the
center, and put in three or four china
eggs. When the hen has shown her
self willing to settle down to business
in the place it is time enough to trust
her with the new article.
All being in readiness, carry the hen
about dark or later 10 ner new quar-
ters; hold her by the feet, head down
ward, and dust her thoroughly with
good insect powder. Repeat this about
the second week and again in a cou-
pie of days before the chickens are
Matched, for lice breed rapidly on a
sitting hen, and sometimes drive her
from the nest. Having rubbed the
powder into the feathers. especially
under the wings and tail, place the
hen gently on the new nest and for
a day or two keep a board or lattice
in front to prevent her trying to re-
turn to her old haunts If she settles
quietly and arranges the eggs under
her with her bill you may consider
that she has accepted the situation.
Every morning at a certain hour let
her come off for food and water.
Should she not take the initiative lift
her from the nest yourself, but it is
wise to raise her wings before lifting
her to release any eggs she may have
tucked under them. In replacing her,
Los Angeles herald., 1910-02-06

provided. If allowed to take a dust
bath she will do much better herself
toward keeping off the lice. The first
week the absences from the nest
should be very brief-ten minutes at
most and less if the room is cold, as
the embryo in its early stages of
growth is easily chilled. Later it
terminates heat of its own, and the
hen may safely leave her nest for
fifteen or twenty minutes. After few
days she will probably come off when
you appear, eat, drink, dust herself,
pick a few cinders or bits of gravel
out of the dust bath, for her diges
tion's sake, and return voluntarily to
the nest; but watch her, for many
promising hatch has been ruined
through the hens mistaking the nest
and either sharing that of another
SETTER" leaving her own to grow
cold. or smashing some of the others
eggs in the fight for possession.
The seventh day the eggs should be
tested and all infertie ones removed
This allows the hen to cover the re-
naming eggs more perfectly and re-
duces the chance of breakage. The
infertile; if it has a dark patch in
saved for the baby chicks. Night is
the best time for testing. Take the
eggs, one at a time, between the
thumb and forefinger, the point of the
egg toward the finger tips. Hold it
directly before a lamp or lantern, and
the condition of the contents can be
readily seen. If the egg is clear it is
infertile; if it has a dark patch in
the center its chance of Matching is
good. With practice one can tell even
sooner if the egg is fertile and if the
embryo is developing normally, but
testing in this simple way the seventh
day will usually be found sufficient
for the amateur.
About the nineteenth day you may
expect to find some of the shells
pipped. Do not take the hen off, the
chicks need all the heat and moisture
possible, but if she is one of the tame
chickens recommended she will eat
little grain from your hand. Next
morning if there are three or four
chicks out and dry remove them and
put them in some warm corner with a
flannel cloth laid lightly over them.
Do not feed them. They will be safer

cord, hold her in both hands, thumbs
if she does not return of her own ac-
over her back and a foot in each hand.
When she is fairly on the nest the
hands may be withdrawn, but if she
is put on with her feet free she may
struggle and do some damage. Should
any nest eggs be broken remove all
soiled straw and. wash the remaining
eggs in warm water. for if the pores
are closed the embryo cannot breathe.
In warm weather a good-sized fowl
can cover fifteen hen eggs or eleven
duck or turkey eggs, but if the weather
is damp or chilly thirteen hen eggs
or ten of the larger fowls will be
safer.
Whole corn or wheat is the best
food for a sitting hen, and fresh water
and box of ashes or dust should be

THE AMATEUR AND SITTING HEN

When hen brings off eleven chicks
out of a possible thirteen the owner
forgets about beginners luck" and
commences to count his chickens be-
fore they are Matched. If he will heed
a few hints his anticipations and
realizations may compare somewhat
more closely, says Country Life in
America.
First of all, choose a fairly tame
hen. One that flies off the nest with
an ear-splitting squawk every time
you approach is likely to break her
eggs by the sudden DASH and then,
too, later, she teaches her chicks to
be as wild as she is. Having found
a quiet ''biddy" that wants to sit, let
her stay on the nest she has chosen

here than with the hen, for she may
trample on them or leave the nest
with them without waiting for the
others to hatch. When all the chicks

are out and dry give the hen a good
feed that she may not be hungry and
restless, and put her in a dry coop
with her babies.

The Imperial County Directory for t9t0-1911 is out. It is truly Finder of Men and ought to be in every office and business house in the val ley.

the law. The Press declares that "the act is cumbersome and complicated. and as interpreted by the supreme court it tends to check the movement toward elimination of party politics from municipal and county govern ment."
 It certainly seems that a commun- ity that desires to eliminate party lines in the choice of it's governing body, should have that privilege. It is clearly blunder, not to say an act of downright tyranny, for the state to coerce that community into inject ing politics into it's election. It is not so apparent, however, that such com munities, having no charter provisions governing elections, may ignore the law and dispense with the primaries. The constitutional amendment adopt ed in 1908 provides that the legisla- ture may direct that primary cleo tions shall be mandatory and obli- gatory" and the present law seems to have followed that suggestion to the letter. But the truth of the Press's assertion that "the direct primary law needs radical revision" is apparent now, months before the date set for the first state primary under the act, and is likely to be much more appar- ent after the first try-out of the meas ure.
