In the beginning God created
the heavens and the earth and
all things therein. He then
created man and woman and left
the loafers on the corners, and
in due time they multiplied and
then spread into pOstofices and
depots and the stores. In these
places they sit and explain state
and national problems that have
vexed great minds. While he is
thus engaged his wife is out
washing for her neighbors, and
the poor helpless children are
left at home taking care of them
selves as best they can. There
is nothing more noticeable than

far away from any disturbance, and

of the dwelling house, where the in
cubators are so often kept AS the
running of any incubator requires
that a fairly close watch be kept
upon it to insure a good hatch, 1t
would be necessary that the building
be located within a short distance OF
the dwelling house-at least within
100 feet.
The floor plan of the incubator eel
lar shows four incubators placed along
the side wall of the room. 1t will be
seen from the plan, however, that at
least eight incubators could be placed
in this room without crowding it to
the limit. Under the steps and along
the wall, as shown in the diagram, are
number of shelves, on which eggs
may be stored, provided the tempera-
ture of the room is kept at point be-
tween 40 and 60 degrees. 1t has
been found that eggs that are kept
at temperature any higher than this
will be weakened to such great ex-
tent that the chances of a good hatch
are reduced to the smallest. About
one-quarter of the room is reserved
for space to be used for sprouting
oats, and as this space would be
damper than the vest of the cellar, it
would be necessary for it to be board
ed in. Windows about two by three
inches are placed around the walls
of the cellar to allow sufficient venti-
lation. Care should be taken that
the windows that are shown directly
over the incubators are not opened in
severe weather. as this is liable to
affect the temperature of the egg
chamber.

SPRAYING FOR SOUND FRUIT
Experiments In Missouri Show That
Practically All Unsprayed Fruit Is
Ruined by Disease.

The man who still olings to the idea
that spraying does not aid in the pro-
duction of fruit should be convinced
by the report of w. L. Howard of the
Department of Horticulture of the Unit
versity of Missouri By taking or
chards here and there over the state
of Missouri. Prof Howard has Just fin.
ished a series of experiments that
show that practically all unsprayed
fruit is ruined by diseases or insects.
In one orchard where a part was
sprayed and a part was left unsprayed,
only 12 per cent of the Arkansas
black apples could be classed as clean
fruit after the trees had 5aen left un.
sprayed. In the same orchard. where
the same brand Of apples had been
sprayed, the crop of clean fruit was
1851 per cent. Another orchard of
Missouri pippin apples experimental
with the same way resulted in 81
clean fruit for the unsprayed part and

the yield of oats was about one-half
less than the yield of last year. Corn,

prospects are that the yield will be

facts seem to be important ones for
