ed the sale of two dozen pound and
half iryers by lady III subu1 ban
town to a noighbor for the record
breaking price Of two dollars and
automatically less than their feed
alone cost her. But she was greatly
pleased with the sale; it was more
money than her chickens had ever
brought her at one time. The &C.
casional sack of grain bought at the
grocery store was never noticed or
thought of as poultry expense, but
showed as groceries. At least one
half the back yard of all suburban
towns, and many back yards of the
big cities-as Councilman Blaine, of
Seattle, can tell you, are infested
with these little cut rate fiocks and
it doesn't make for good prices or
prosperous conditions. The effect
would be deservedly insignificant If
those who produce poultry products
on fair sized scale would but or
ganize for their own protection.
Here is cold, hard fact to think
over. Five years ago. when the con-
sumption of eggs per capita in the
State of Washington was less than
now, prices of eggs we're higher for
the whole year than now. The maxi
mum price was higher, the minimum
price was higher and the average for
the year was higher. Apd-to show
how wrong and unnatural present
prices are-there was the same I'M
portation of eggs per capita then as
now. 1t does not seem possible, how
ever, that such unnatural prices can
be maintained for long. The simple
laws of trade are bound to govern in
the long run and when that happens
eggs will sell at price yielding a
profit to the producer, and the poultry
raiser who has business large enough
to engage all his time to advantage
and who is not afraid OF hard and dis
agreeable work will then find himself
about the best paid Of all the agri-
culturists.

dark cloud but has a silver lining,
and the present bad condition of
affairs makes for good by reducing
the amount of production and the
number of producers. If those re-
naming would but profit by the
present experiences and organize
state wide sales associations, as have
the berry growers of this state and
the fruit growers of California, we
might enter upon an era of unbroken
prosperity. When one has talked
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-06-01

with berry growers of Puyallup or with
orange growers OF Riverside and heard
from them, at first hand, how
hazardous and lily paid was their
business before they became their
own agents and statesmen and how
very different it is with them now,
the wonder increases that the egg
producers of the Northwest make no
concerted effort for improved condi-
lions.

GOOD SENSE In AN AID.

"Many people fail with poultry be-
cause they are afraid of the cars. 20
You would laugh until your sides
ache at the man who would try to
start any business, except the poultry
business, on an investment of fifteen
or twenty dollars, and yet hundreds
start in the poultry business with
setting or two of eggs and expect to
make 800 a month inside of ninety
days. Put the same amount OF capital
into the poultry business that you
would expect to put into any other
line of endeavor to make a success.
use your head as we'll as your hands.
aud you will be surprised at the pro-
fits that will accrue"
This quotation is from the adver-
tisement of a we'll known breeder in
neighboring poultry paper-from an
advertisement mind you!-and con-
tains more good sound sense than all
the reading matter in the paper.
Surely there is no other business in
the world into which people plunge
in so unprepared state and with so
little working capital. And is there,
after all, business less fitted for
lazy or incompetent or very poor
people? Probably not, for its hard
enough for the capable and energetic
ones to get very moderately decent
living out of it. AS the writer has
chicks and eggs and breeding stock
and all that sort of thing for sale, he
will probably be accused of fouling
his own nest; but it is luxury to
state ones opinion unreservedly for
once-at that it is by no means certain
that it gets by the business Office
a temptation that is occasionally ir-
resistible.
The great trouble is prices and one
great and principal cause why prices
of eggs are so low that very capable
and hard working people cannot make
decent wages at the business is the
very fact that so many incompetents
with few dozen chickens enter the
business and remain in it long enough
(if unusually lucky to produce few
dozen eggs and sell them at starvation
prices. Throughout the whole land
this is done by about million of
them every year. The writer witness

| am reminded by several Ranch
readers that I mentioned the use of
oxygen machines in Matching and pro-
missed to report on the same il pos
sible. This l have been able to do
and after carefully studying the data
of several fairly comprehensive ex-
periments | am of the opinion that
the oxygen machines do not affect the
hatch one way or another where hot
air machines are concerned though
the result when used in conjunction
with hot water incubators was quite
favorable. Why this should be | have
not the remotest idea, but 1t is fact
that in every case the hot water
machines turned out better hatch
when supplied with oxygen but the
hot air incubators did not.

chicks is frequently caused by over
heating. 1t is also caused sometimes

COLOR ILLUSIONS.
Curious Effects From Red and Blue OF
Black Background.

If on a screen OF black velvet placed
at distance OF ten feet from the spec
tator large letters are pasted, some
blue, some red, they will not appear to
be at an equal distance from the eyes.
To some persons the red letters will
seem nearer than blue letters. while
to other persons the contrary effect
will be manifested.
To produce this effect both eyes must
be employed. When one eye is closed
the letters are all seen at the same dis
lance. On opening the other eye one
set OF letters Immediately appears to
take position in advance Of the others.
The explanation offered for this effect
is that sort Of stereoscopic Illusion is
produced in the eye itself, depending
upon color. The image Of blue object
is shifted by the eye toward one side
and that Of a red object toward the
other side
II on looking at blue and red letters
on a black background placed ten or
twelve feet away YOU see the red letters
nearer than the blue, screen of one
half Of the pupil Of each eye on the
outside and YOU win see the red let
tiers retire behind the blue ones.
II you screen the pupils on the side
toward the nose yon will see the red
letters advance apparently still farther
ahead Of the blue ones
II, on the other hand. you naturally
see the blue in advance screen the in.
ncr side Of the pupils Of your eyes and
the red will come to the front
Beautiful effects are produced with
one eye alone when. instead of letters,
red or blue rings are pasted on a back
ground Of the opposite color. Placing
red rings on blue paper and using the
right eye with the infer side Of the pu-
phi covered the appearance is that of
circular red hillOcks resting on a blue
ground
To produce this effect in its highest
degree the paper must be held to the
left and slOping in that direction
When the outer side Of the pupil is
screened the red rings will become cir
cuIar trenches in the blue paper.-New

WEATHER CONDITIONS.

Showers in the Atlantic sections
