breeding.
A good many breeders, of not too high
calibre, are opposed to line breeding
just as, and for the same reason that,
they are opposed to trap nesting. 1t
is too hard work, that's all. How
much easier it is to dash out every
Spring and get some "new blood, T"
generally by the purchase OF new
rooster. Of course such focks can't
be impaired much anyway, no matter
how the new blood turns out, for they
haven't much quality to lose.
Just consider the difference between
flock carefully line bred for years,
especially where the utility qualities of
every female used and of the female
ancestors of every male used had been
determined by the use of the trap nests.
Consider then the difference between
such flock and one which is constant
ly being infused with new blood" of
which little or nothing is known for
generations back. The first mentioned
flock will produce birds of uniform
type and uniform high laying quality
for with every year the desirable quail
tiles are strengthened and implanted
stronger than ever. The other flock
may produce any old thing resembling
the myriad of miscellaneous ancestors
and the breeder himself has no idea
what he may get in the way of progeny
But it is easier, Oh yes, it is whole
lot easier than keeping the closest kind
of tab on the fowls for years on end.

shown in different positions in order to
show the details of construction. The
nest is set by pushing the wire door at
the front inward and upward until it
rests on the bent tip of a wire which
runs from the side of the nest, near the
top and crosses the round hole in the
partition which divides the nest into
two compartments. The hen enters
the front of the nest and, continuing on
her way toward the attractive secluslon
of the rear compartment, passes under
the are and, by raising it merest frac-
ton of an inch, releases the door be-
hind her; combining her until the nest
is pulled out just as bureau drawer
would be, and the bird released by
being lifted out through the open top.
The advantages of the two compart-
ment nest over the single type are
obvious and this nest is very reliable
in it's working, and its unrestricted use
is permitted by the Experiment Station.
A CHAPTER ON LINE BREEDING.
The difficulties of getting together
flock of great layers and improving it's
quality are so enormous that few poul-
try raisers are in position to fully ap-
preciate them. 1t means long years OF
unremitting toll with the trap nest and
continued study and observation OF the
fowls: it means long hours of work
posting egg records and pedigrees and
studying individual peculiarities OF
hundreds of birds in order to mate
them up successfully, and it means
continual struggle to maintain and in
crease the constitutional vigor of the
flock, involving the meeting and solv-
ing of many problems in the care OF
breeding stock, incubation and the
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1911-10-01

rearing of the young stock. 1t is not
to be wondered at that few breeders of
fowls care to work upon these lines
and that, for the most part, they are
contented to employ their time mating
pretty birds together to see how well
they will "nick," and going after the
ribbons at the shows. But the demand
for tangible results in eggs rather than
feathers and fluff has caused an in
creasing number of breeders to go to
supply it.
Six years ago began trap nesting my
White Leghorns, making my first ex-
detrimental trap nest from an orange
box. began that season with no less
than five distinct strains from widely
separated parts of the country. One
lot was from the Atlantic Coast, an
other from the Middle West and the
three remaining strains were from the
yards of Pacific Coast breeders. OF
these five distinct stocks one lot, that
purchased nearest home from Mr..
Thos. Robinson of Tacoma, an old and
extremely clever breeder, was far SUI
perior to all the others in laying quail
tiles, besides being very handsome
fowls, bred close to standard. Mr..
Robinson had one hen on his place at
that time that scored OH points, an
almost unbelievable score. A few
birds from the Middle West stock laid
splendidly, though the bulk OF them
did not; and from that lot I selected
one hen which had laid POI eggs in her
pullet year for use as one OF my foun-
dation birds in the line breeding which
I inaugurated. The great hen with
the 295 egg record was bred in my
second year with the White Leghorns.
The following year very fine male was
bred from the 295 egg hen-then in her
pullet year-and Wyckoff cock bird,
and later was bred to the 261 egg hen
and 1 was we'll under way with my line

Answer-The room brooder is
certainly the main question with
poultry raisers at the present time.
This letter is fair sample of great
many received recently and in order
to answer them adequately we will
publish full account of the method
in The Ranch; probably in the issue
of November lst; which happens by
the way to be the room brooder an

years ago, on that date, that this

are doing fine, but L would like to
get another drake for the coming
season, as l am told they will do

Answer-The Muscovy duck is the
largest duck recognized by the stand
ard of perfection; the weight of an
adult drake being therein given at 10
pounds. Aside from its large size,
the Muscovy has no particularly de-
sirable features and is but little bred.
You will find advertisements of breed
ers of this duck in any Of the prin-
cipal Eastern poultry papers. Ducks
may be bred pretty closely in, how
ever, and if you use only specimens
that are vigorous and healthy you
need not fear the results of mating
them.

Hartley Store Changes Hands

William O. Schroll is now the
owner and proprietor of the Hart
ley store, a dealing having been
completed Tuesday between him
and the former proprietor, Will
liam Parker, in which he comes
into possession of the stock, build
ing and fixtures. Mr.. Schroll needs
no introduction to the people of
the Hartley neighborhood, having
resided in that vicinity for a num-
Der of years, and is we'll known
by all the patrons of this mercan-
tile establishment. He expects to
continue the business at the old
stand and will where possible i'm
prove the service and general eff
cheney of the establishment. The
new proprietor is starting out with
the idea of letting the people know
he is on earth and in the general
merchandise business as evinced
by an ad which appears in this
issue of the News, We wish Mr..
Schroll the best of success in his
new venture.

A Tribute to the Editors

Reading of crop conditions in
our South Dakota exchanges brings
vlvldly to mind some things which
occurred during the early history
of the then territory. Homestead
ers were pouring into the country
from Brookings west by the thou
sands, Just as they have been do
ing INTO the newer country west
of the Missouri for the past few
years. Then came season of
drouth: crops failed and quarter
section of land did not produce
enough to support a child. Then
came the rush to get back east and
each returning homesteader told
how the country never would
amount to anything. But the ed
itors-they did not desert. Almost
to Il man they remained at their
post and frightened up the COL
umns of their papers with articles
cheering up those who remained
and telling of the wonderful rich
ness of soil, the splendid climate,
predicting that the future would
see South Dakota lead the sister
hood of states. How they lived
we cannot tell, out there they
stayed and in the end profted by
the full realization of their rain
bow predictions. And now history
is repeating itself Those with a
yellow streak are getting out but
the knights of the shears and the
paste pot remain on duty, never
failing to be optimistic and urging
the claims of a state to position
among the most favored. 1t is
hard time for them but as in the
past, their faithfulness is bound to
bring its reward. Here's to the
faithful press, may the state never
forget the debt it owes to the edi-
tors who are now sounding its
praises. -Barnhart Flyer.

Celebrate 5Oth Anniversary

Very few people have the. priv
ilege of celebrating the 5Oth ami
versary of their wedding day, but
such came to two of our honored
and esteemed citizens last Sunday.
Mr.. and Mrs. G.. Pfeiffer were
married at Agency, Ia, Oct. Is,
1861. Preparations were made for
the celebration of their Golden
wedding last Sunday and host of
their friends had counted upon
being present upon the occasion at
their home on the claim nine miles
northwest of town, but rain, set
ting in during the night and con-
tinuing nearly all day, made it
impracticable for the gathering.
Mr.. and Mrs. Pfeiffer came to
town Monday to the home of Mr..
and Mrs. S. p. Brooks and vast
host of friends were coming and
going all the evening bringing
with them full quota of congrat-
ulations and we'll wishes. Jacob
Pfeiffer, a brother, arrived Fri
day night from Creston, Iowa, and
Mrs. Kerr, a daughter, arrived on
the same train, and Mrs. r. w.
Baisch, another daughter, with
her son Carroll, came from Park
ston-all coming to take part in
this pleasant event. Congratula-
tions in writing reached Mr.. and
Mrs. Pfeiffer from over sixty
friends, many of whom we're pres
ent at their wedding fifty years
ago. Gifts in gold coin came from
many friends amounting to fifty
dollars. Mr.. and Mrs. Pfeiffer
came to Stanley county nearly
six years ago among the first of
the homesteaders and have been a
great force in the development of
this part of the country. Wher-
ever they have lived their influence
has always been for the up-lift of
the community and the help of
their fellow man. Their many
friends all join in wishing them
many years yet, and much happi-
ness to the end of their days.

Noted Banker Dead

John X. Walsh, who in January
1910, entered on a five year sen.
tence, at the federal prison in
Leavenworth, kans. for the mis-
application of funds of the Chicago
National Bank of which he was
the president, and who, nine days
ago was paroled, after serving one
year, eight months and twenty
six days, died at his home IN Chi
cago Monday, from myocarditis,
an inflammation of the heart.
Members of his family attribute
the immediate cause of his death
to his imprisonment and charge
the responsibility to President
Taft and Attorney General Wick
ersham, declaring that they ignor-
ed the statements of physicians,
that Walsh was dangerously i'll
and that a further confinement
would result in his death.
The delay in arranging the pa
role, they say, made the convicted
bankers freedom futile.
They wanted the last ounce of
blOOd.' declared Orville f.. Bah
cock, Walsh's son-in-Iaw
Walsh was convicted of misuse
of the funds of the. bank for the
purchase of his properties includ-
ing the Bedford quarries, South
ern Indian railway, the Chicago
Chronicle ard other securities
which were in need of cash. The
five year sentence, his family said,
was equivalent to life and immedi-
ately began work for his release.
His health began to fail anu
physicians said he was suffering
from hardening of the arteries of
the heart Applications for par.
don were denied, but finally he
was paroled nine days ago and
came Immediately so his Chicago
home.
Walsh, who was "A years of age,
had spectacular career. lie came
to America from Ireland sixty |
years ago and began work as a
newspaper peddler. He gained a
place in the bank and forged to
the front until he became one of
the leading tinanciers of the coun-
try.
The crash came in 1907, when
the Chicago National Equitable
Trust and Home Savings bank, all
controlled by Walsh, closed their
doors in Chicago. An Indictment
of Walsh followed an investiga-
tion and he was tried and convict
ed two years later.
