@. Is it true that chicken mites are
like certain lizards thar can change
their color according to the object they
are on? A. No. They are light gray
in color, except when filed witt hen
blood. which shows red through their
skin and gives them the name red
mites.
Q. had very poor success with
geese last year. My stock was young,
not overfat. healthy and mated early.
A. Young geese are generally unre-
liable breeders. They should at least
be two years old when mated.
@. Why is it so many people fail in
the poultry business? A. There are
not more making failure of this bust
ness than in other avocations, and
those that do not succeed generally
fail because they do not learn the de-
tails and demands Of the business be-
fore they enter it.
O.. My cock pheasants are eating the
eggs. Please tell me how to prevent
this. A. Pheasants generally do this
when eggs are exposed. AS nesting
season approaches you should place
bundles Of brush around in the cor
ners, leaving room enough behind for
the hen pheasant to hide her nest.
Scatter some small china eggs around
for the cocks to get fooled on.
Q. At what temperature should I
run an incubator to hatch duck eggs?
A. First week. 1O2 degrees: second and
third, 103 degrees; last week. 1O4 de-
grees.
Q. Do you run your poultry plant
by any Of these advertised systems?
A. Not If the system is a get-rich.

While wild pigeons in the United
States are about extinct. they are a
pest in England. Farmers Of North
Herefordshire have petitioned the coun.

Please remember when you hatch
and raise fowls that you are dealing
with flesh and blood. There's a big
difference between raising chicks and
pumpkins. but squashheads can't see
it.

Of poultry diseases. and how seldom
some cultivate or renew poultry yard

PREY OF POLITICS.

- ONDITIONS have become so bad in Chester
~ that even the Chester Times, which has been
staunch supporter of the organization, is de-
manding change. There is little definite or spe-
ciic in The Times about how the change should
be brought about.
Chester is very lop-sided in its politics. and with
one party in control for many years, abuses spring
up which can be corrected perhaps by defeating
the regular party and putting their opponents in
power
The Journal says, perhaps" for the reason that
here in Wilmington we have tried swinging from
one party to the other, but that method has failed
to cause satisfaction.
If half of what The Times intimates concerning
Chester be true the time is ripe for house
cleaning. The mere fact that Chester still sticks
10 the system of partisan police-the force chang
ing with the Mayor-shows that Chester is rather
backward.
Sometimes a city may be judged by the coun-
ty surrounding. The same political ring that
controls Chester probably controls Delaware
county, or is part of the machine that controls It,
Any person travelling in Delaware county can
get some idea of how the affairs of the county are
looked after For instance persons who have been
grumbling about the roads in Delaware should be
thankful that they are not so bad as most of the
country roads in Delaware county. The latter are
"6erce'
These roads and many others make us believe
that the greatest incompetency that can be dis
PLAYED in anything manfests itself in the care
of the average country road There is no good
reason why a county so rich as Delaware county
should have so many disreputable roads. Such
condition can be attributable only to a kind of
partisan politics, the basis of which is to put men
in positions and keep them there regardless of
their fitness to render acceptable service.
If Delaware county spends any considerable
amount on its roads great deal of the sum dis
bursed must be wasted.

PENROSE,S GREAT FIGHT.

A political leader Senator Penrose of Phil
adelpha is being put to the test. He has
plunged into the Philadelphia fight regardless of
the effect defeat might have upon his prestige as
the state leader. Penrose might have avoided the
combat had he so desired, but the aggressiveness
with which he has entered the campaign which will
DECIDE whether he is to be master of Philadelphia
and Pennsylvania has caused the political prophets
in Philadelphia to believe that Penrose will tr
umph. Already the Ware and Reyburn forces are
showing unmistakably the effects of the hammer
ing by Penrose and McNchol, and unless they can
strengthen their lines, they may be routed before
the time of the primaries
The wonder is why Penrose should have sudden
y discovered that conditions we're so bad in Phil
adelphia as to cause him to lead reform move
ment Certainly conditions have been no worse
under Reyburn than under other mayors and ad-
ministrations that we're hand and glove with Pen
rose.
The fight is really a combat between leaders for
supremacy, but Penrose was shrewd enough to
take up Earle, man in whom the community has
confidence, as his candidate for Mayor. And while
Penrose is hammering the Reyburn-Vare forces
he seems to have thrown the opposition, the Key
stone party, into a fit of fighting among them
selves.
The nomination of Earle would not mean his
election. The Keystone party would have TO be
reckoned with. Instead of the Keystoners being
united, in which event they would stand gooo
chance of winning, there is conflict between
Blankenburg and Gibbony for the nomination for
Mayor The chances are, therefore, that Senator
Penrose will be able TO nominate his man and
elect him. Although the fighting of the leaders
of the machine may benefit the people, it remains
10 be seen whether a Penrose city administration,
headed by even so respectable man as Mr.. Earle,
would really result in better government than
Philadelphia has been accustomed to.
Philadelphians, however, may have one consola-
tion, which is, that the new administration could
not be worse than those they have been living
under
