QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Thunder and EqGs.

Does a thunder storm hurt the eggs
in an incubator? 5. S, Liberty.
Answer-Some claim that thunder
does effect the eggs in an incubator
that are about TO hatch, but personal
ly we have never had any such
trouble.
How Long to Mate.
How long does the male have 10 be
with the hens before the eggs are
fertile?
Answer have known eggs TO be
fertile after few days. but il is best
to allow ten days or two weeks.
Saving Eggs For Matching.
Should eggs that are being saved
for Matching be laid out so that one
does not lay on top of another? VIII
IT effect the percentage of the hatch
Answer-Eggs should be laid so
that they can be turned every other
day at least There can be no harm
in placing them on top of the other.
provided they are kept in a room of
uniform temperature. IL they are
placed in egg crates and the crate
turned. of course every egg is turned
at the same time II is always advis-
able to let eggs cool before placing
them in any receptacle.
Toe-Marked Chicks.
Will a hole in the foot of a chick
en- disqualify IL from winning prize
Mrs. W. Z. ID.
Answer-No, this will not dis
qualify them. 1t is quite common, In
fact. II is the best plan TO punch
the web of the feet of the chicks as
they are Matched: in keeping rec
ord of their ancestry and the toe
mark. This system is understood by
the Judges, and no cuts are given for
the hole in the web.
Mixing Breeds.
Is there any danger of contamina-
ton of pure bred eggs through the
male if he is allowed to consort with
hens of another breed? For ex
ample, suppose have a flock of pure
bred r. |. r. hens and also some Bar
red Plymouth Rock hens in the same
flock, and allow a r. |. r. male to
mingIe with the whole lot of hens
Would the eggs that the R. I. r. hens
lay be pure or would they produce a
flock of mixed chicks? G. w. W.
Answer.-In such a case the eggs
laid by the pure bred r. /. r. hens
that mated only with a r. l. r. male
should produce pure bread r. i. X
chicks. The chicks produced from the
eggs laid by the B. p. Rocks would
be mixed.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE.
life is dramatic.

Life is dramatic.
You may think it, on the contrary,
tame, monotonous, on dead level Of
sameness.
Neutral-tinted, pale, flabby.
But it is never SO.
In its seeming is merely translated
your attitude toward it,
1t is full of surprises, replete with
contrasts, with sudden and annihibat-
ing changes, with shocks and with
theatric situations.
How could the dramatic be more SUI
perlative than in the sinking of the Ii
tanic
1t was a splendid dramatic saw
ing of the women and children while
the men stood aside.
After all the Anglo-Saxon man,
when put to the test, is god-llke in his
heroism and his chivalry.
Contrast the masculine dsnizens OF
the first and second cabins with those
of the steerage-the latter from the
continental countries with one Or two
Asiatics-who, at first, scrambled for
place in the lifeboats. q
! In the end it is the most highly civ
ilized of the human species who is the
bravest Who practices the great vir
tues of self immolation, of renuncia-
ton.
See the much maligned John Jacob
Aston "decorously stepping to one
side,' when he had seen his young
wife safely put into the life-boat.
'Decorously stepping to one side"
epitomizes the whole story of the Gen
tleman
1t is not always the dude" who is
the white-livered coward.
Nor the dandy who shows the white
feather.
One of the greatest regulations for
bravery made in the Civil War was
that of a regiment from New York's
most aristOcratic families.
And let it not be forgotten that Col
onel Astor gave his private yacht to
the government to be turned into
gun-boat for use in the Spanish
American War Nor that he did gal
liant service as an officer.
There is a type familiar to the read
ers of the stories of Richard Harding
Davis and Robert Chambers. which is
sometimes derided, but nonetheless eX-
lists, and which rises to just such an
occasion as the sinking of the Titanic.
Henry B. Harris, one of this cOun-
trys greatest theatrical managers
never staged anything that remotely
approached the climax of his own life
Taking a seat in the life-boat by his
wife's side, Mr. Harris looked up when
he heard-"Ladies first"
"All right" he responded.
Kissed his wife, pressed her to his
heart, said Goodbye, my dear" and
also "decorcusly stepped aside, to as
sist women and children to safety and
to disappear forever with the Titanic.
The shooting down of three men in
the steerage by an officer would be
denounced as impossible melodrama
on the stage.
The playing of the band as the ship
sank,
The coterie of card-players who
calmly continued their game while the
boat tilted on end prior to the final
plunge.
| Bravado, you say?
Rather, the most exquisite heroism
in the history of such catastrophes.
They were up against it.
They faced the grim spectre at
closer range than an army on the bat
| tlefield.
| And there wasn't a whimper.
| 1t is a splendid spectacle of the sto.
icism of humanity.

turn and throw he would lose so much
time in stopping and turning that the
double would be impossible. He de-
cided that as 1 was facing second
base, We could gain time If he
scooped the ball to me. We got the
decision at first by short step
saved the run that already had
crossed the plate, and saved the game
as well, as neither side could score
again.

no one but Bush could have done it.

the warmth or stress, philosophers
need not despair.
These are the crises which make
you proud of your kind.
You are not ashamed to belong to
that innumerable band of human be-
ings who man the ship of life.
The other day in Indianapolis the
members of the Womans Franchise
League raised one thousand dollars in
five minutes for the prosecution of
their work.
They need five thousand dollars and
will get it.
1t is a fine thing to see women sub
scribing to fund for their own eman-
cipation For active freedom. For
something else besides a prize for a
bridge party or a box for charity
ball
Women have been accused, and just
ly. of a lack of esprit de corps.
But it is because. for one reason,
they have too long been confined to
competition for the minor prizes in
the game of life.
To the scramble for sex supremacy.
To the capturing of mans emo
tons.
To petty awards, to insignificant
ends.
Most women are possessed of
certain amount of executive ability.
Indeed this quality in the average
woman is far more dominating than in
the average man.
You only have to observe the man
agement of the average household to
know this.
The conduct of a menage, even on
modest scale, is a complicated affair.
1t calls for varying activities, self
repression, sudden decisions and
controlling hand.
This executive capacity, directed to
larger ends, shows itself in the sue
cessful manipulation by women of
their campaigns for civic recognition
That in Indiana, in instance, is be-
ing engineered with system.
A year ago no-one would have
dreamed that a state organization with
constantly increasing momentum
! would be in existence.
! AS stated, at the recent state con-
vention held in Indianapolis, twelve
out of thirteen, congressional districts
: into which Indiana is politically di-
vided, were represented.
Many new branch leagues over the
state have since been organized, al
though the convention is scarcely
three weeks distant.
! And, by the way, let all women in
/ terested in this propaganda discour-
age the use of the word "suffragette."
This is peculiarly English in origin
and application.
American women are suffragists.
| The movement in this country is dig
nified and deserves considerate treat
ment
! And this consideration it should
have at the hands of its friends
Nothing is gained by ieering at "a
! phase of activity in which you MAJ
be either openly or secretly interested.
| And the interest is there
Here in Richmond many women are
ready to be convinced
! But their information is limited and
vague because they have not followed
the details of the propaganda by publ
cation either in the newspapers or
otherwhere.
| To all these the Richmond League
gives an invitation.
! The next meeting will be held April
26th at four in the afternoon.
At this time information as to the
! purposes of the League and the move
ment in general will be discussed.
