Just a bit more crowded than is de-
sirable for the night, and if so just
spread them out little on the brooder
floor and they will stay "put' for
the night.
An inch or more of good heavy,
black earth on the bIoOder floor is
beneficial and it should be frequently
renewed; once a week at the least
when litter is used on it, and twice a
week is better. For obvious reasons
litter is an added benefit. Properly
cured leafy alfalfa hay-neither stalks
nor meal--makes fine litter but it
should be removed every morning.
The nearer you can come to absolute
cleanliness, the better your success
raising the chicks.
The temperature can be lowered
about five degrees per week, though
no hard and fast rule can be given.
The chicks themselves must be con-
suited in this matter. AS to feeding:
For the first fortnight the chicks
should be fed lightly but frequently :;
six times day is not too often at
first. The first feed may be rolled

CARE OF YOUNG CHICKS
Brooder Chicks.

1t is a good plan to move chicks
from the incubator to the brooder
when thoroughly dry and leave them
alone in the brooder at temperature
of 95 degrees Temperature to be taken
midway between warmest and coolest
places in the brooder and one inch
from floor until SO hours has elapsed
since the end of the hatch. During
this time they should receive no food
and no water-this last is important,
they should not be given a drink
until an hour after they have had
their first meal.
Some sharp sand or very fine grit
should be given them at first, and the
egg shells, baked and then crumbled
up fine, may be given them at the
same time; then the first real feed
and after that the first drink. There
are nearly as many different ways of
feeding chicks AS there are people
raising them, so it is hardly possible
to describe any method and say it is
the best.
Great care should be taken that
chicks are not chilled and it is an
equally serious matter to let them be
over heated. The chicks that have
suffered either of these mishaps are
never the same after it. Bowel trouble
often ensues and sometimes carries
off the whole brood, and when this
does not occur the chicks that have
been chilled or heated will turn out
to be a puny lot compared with
chicks of same age and quality that
have been brooded without accident
of this nature. The chicks should be
visited a half hour after they have
retired to their brooder for the night
and the temperature noted. Then
visit them again about two hours later
and if temperature is not just what it
should be change flame of lamp to
correct it. This gives you time to
pay another visit before going to bed
and to make slight change of flame
again if necessary.
The thermometer is a necessary
adjunct to the brooder but the chicks
are a pretty good thermometer them
selves; for most important of all is
the rule that the chicks must look
fright in the brooder. When you
visit them at night you should find
them spread about the floor of the
brooder in little clusters, just few
to a bunch and little space between
punches. They should not be huddl-
ed up as near the source of the heat
as they can get or backed away from
it, trying to find cooler place. On
paying them the last visit at night
you may find them looking Fright"

Attended Meeting.


DIR. r. p Heilman, last Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday attended a
meeting of the State Board of Horticul-
ture at Harrisburg. DIR. Heilman is,
and has been for many years, an en-
! thusiastic booster of everything per-
tanning to agriculture, especi ally fruit
growing.
No time will be lost in the prepara-
tion of the bill to provide for a State
fair for Pennsylvania, it is understood,
and the committee appointed by the
Pennsylvania Livestock Breeders AS
sociation to act with the agricultural,
dairy and fruit interests will get to
work as early as possible on the pro-
posed measure.
It is desired that the bill shall be
framed in such shape that little or no
change in the way of amendments,
ETC., will be necessary after it reaches
the Legislature and in order to avoid
possible loss of time after the bill is
placed on the legislative calendar, the
committee will exercise caution.
The question of appropriation and
site will be the principal ones that the
committee will wrestle with, although
it is not considered likely that any
other location than the Capital City
will be decided upon. The appropri-
attain necessary to carry the project
through will be carefully considered
also, as it is hoped to have sufficient
funds to enable the movement to be
carried as near as possible toward
completion without naming a sum so
large as to prevet its getting atten-
ton.
DR.. Heilman, after examining the
fine specimens of apples displayed at
the state meeting, is more than ever
convinced that this state can and will
be made the best apple region of the
United States and is very enthusiastic
of the admirable p Possibilities of Cam
eron county to grow just as fine fruit
as the best. We firmly believe DR..
Heilman has the correct view of the
apple question and the future, near fu-
slre, will prove his theory to be cor
rect. Why not? There is always a
good market for good fruit.

Terms Extended.

The terms of %, 900 to 30, 900 officers
of the State will be affected by a bill
that has been prepared and will be in
troduted in the legislature this week,
having been prepared by the State De-
partment in conjunction with Attorney
General Bell. The purpose of the
measure is to correct conditions re-
sulting from the recently enacted
amendments to the State constitution,
which in many instances failed to pro-
vide for the continuous filling of such
offices as judges, justices of the peace,
county, city, borough, township and
district officers.
One of the sections of the bill pro-
vides that ''all judges of the courts of
the several judicial districts, associate
judges and county officers holding of
fees at the date of the approval of said
amendments, whose commissions ex-
pire on the first Monday of January in
odd numbered years shall continue to
hold their offices until the first Monday
of January in the following even num-
bered years. "
The constitutional amendments ex-
tended for one year the terms of those
officers heretofore elected for odd num-
ber of years but failed to carry these
officers over from April or May or June,
as the case may be, until the first Mon
day in January, except in the case of
those holding Office at the date of the
approval of the amendments whose
terms were to expire in 1911.
For example, the terms of Mayors,
Burgesses, City and Borough Council
men and other municipal officers end
the first Monday in April. The terms
of their successors are to begin on the
first Monday of December. The terms
of justices of the peace, except those
elected in February, 1910, end on the
first Monday in May, School Director's s
terms end in June. While these Off
GERS who were elected for an uneven
number of years have their terms ex-
tended a year, the amendments
leave period unprovided for, from
the first Monday of April, May or
June until January. The proposed bill
takes care of this by lengthening the
terms until January.
The schedule of the constitutional
amendments provided that the terms
of all municipal officers elected in odd
numbered years should begin on the
first Monday in December following
their election. This is considered too
soon after the November election, pro-
viding not enough time for working
out contests. The proposed bill, there
fore, provides that all these terms shall
begin the first Monday in January in
stead of the first Monday of December.
This applies To all city, borough and
township officers.

Trade Improvement.

There has been distinct improve

the progress of business contraction
has been most pronounced. This ha 6
contributed notably to the growth OF
confidence without which active en-

The larger activity in iron and steel

creased confidence resulting there
from, are the three most important

Last Saturday evening, it was re-
ported around town that Mr.. Everett
Pierson, formerly of this place, Assist
ant superintendent of the Novelty In
candescent Lamp Company at ST.
Marys, had, through an accident,
broken both legs The report was
not true. Mr.. Piereon arrived in town
on Sunday afternoon and spent a short
time here In regard TO the accident
Mr. Pi-rson had the misfortune to
severely hruise both mis- legs. It seems
that he was assisting in removing "a
large fly wheel, weighing several hun
dred pounds, from gas engine and
those helping Mr.. Pierson lost control
OF Il, letting il fall, pinning him to the
floor, the hub striking In such way
that il kept the entire weight of the
wheel from hitting him. The injury,
while very painful, viii not ineonveu-
fence MIR. Pierson to any great extent.
His many friends at this place will be
glad 10 learn that Il was not moro
serious.
