HARD WORK MEANS SUCCESS
To Hatch and Brood Chickens Artlh
siaIly One Must stay With Work
Night and Day.

A great many people bug incubators
and breeders and expect them TO run
Themselves. There would be just ~
much sense In the hen leaving her
eggs for the wind and sun to hatch tn
stead Of setting on them and guarding
them. night and day. for II days.
InanimAte things won't run them
selves: they must be run. Machines
are all right. but they haven't brains;
men must supply the intelligence.
Now. 1t has been proved BY thou
sands Of people in different parts Of
the world that artificial incubation
and brooding Of poultry IL an assured
success. But to make this success r.
Quires close personal attention from
start to finish. The work cannot be-
intrusted to any Tom or Dick or Har.
~. Tom and Dick and Harry hired to
do the work may set tho machine
going. but they won't keep them
going. They lack the personal eQua-
ton. They would just Is soon see you
mako = failure as they would see you
make a success OF the chicken bust
hess.
To hatch and brood chickens artifi-
cially one must stay right with the
work, day and night. This does not
mean that you have to sit up with and
nurse the machines and baby birds,
but that you just about know exactly
what they are doing every hour Of the
twenty-four.
Many people fall to keep the infant
chicks dry. warm and well supplied
with fresh air in the brooder This
is a simple matter, but an essential. A
herd of goats will get along in a re
mote brushy pasture for weeks at .
time with nothing but bushes and
fence rails to feed upon Not SO with
baby chicks; they must be fed al
least five times each day.
The neglect Of simple sanitation n
the brooder is responsible for heavy
mortality among young feathered
stock. Fifty or hundred or more
young birds in one close room will
soon make foul conditions, which IL
turn will soon lead to disease and
death II tho fOulness IL not removed.
Those who are very careful to keep
the brooder scrupulously clean usually
have good success with broodel
chicks. and those who allow them to
become filthy meet with inevitable
loss.
Failures. then. in Matching AND
brooding poultry by artificial means
are due to the use of infertile eggs. Al
lowing temperatures in the machine
to run too high and too low. lack OF
good ventilation. failure to keep the
brooder clean and the young birds
supplied with direct sunlight. and ir
regular feeding. These may all be
summed up In one phrase-lack Oh
close attention to details.
