MRS. SETTING HEN
LAUDED BY EXPERT
r. R. Slocum of Animal industry Says Incubator Chicks
Lack the Class That Goes With Ancestry-Thin
Blood Proves Handicap.

Mrs. Setting Hen was today officially
Endorsed as the true aristocrat In Barn.
yardville society. Her boast that anccs-
try counts more in the long run than
mere conformance to the Roosevetian
theory stands confirmed, and that
Plymouth Rock or White Leghorn blood
Is thicker than incubator coal oil and
water is attested by no less a person
than r. r. Slocum, of Uncle Sans Blu
reau of Animal Industry, while he does
not contend that Mrs. Setting Hen will
ever equal the producing record of the
incubator tribe, he does contend that
her children make better citizens when
they mature.
First of all, the incubator has no
family tree, while Mrs. Setting Hen can
trace her ancestry back to the Garden
of Eden.
Experiments conducted by the De-
partment of Agriculture proves that
the paternal care given by Mrs. Hen is
a great aid in producing strong and
healthy children. Through her interest,
the hem raised chickens are personally
conducted to pastures wherein grow the
latest grasshoppers. and in other ways
they are given Individual attention.
