KEEPS HENS AT THEIR WORK
Simple Continuance Used by Western
Man Cures Them Of Desire
to "Set.n

Owners of hens are frequently
greatly annoyed by the persistent de.
sire of their fowls to set, in season
and out, on eggs, stones or other OBJ
iects to hand. But a western man has
evolved plan to circumvent the hen
In this respect.
the cure consists of cheap watch,
with loud and clear tick, inclosed in
a case that is white and shaped like
an egg When one of the hens be-
longing to this westerner manifests a
desire to set out of season he gently
places the bogus egg under her sheI-
tering breast The "egg" ticks cheer
fully away, and soon the hen begins to
evince signs OF uneasiness and stirs
the noisy egg around with her bill,
thinking, no doubt, that It is already
time for 1t to hatch. She becomes
more and more uneasy as the noise
continues, and soon jumps OH the nest
and runs about while to cool on.
Soon, however, she returns to her self.
imposed task. Matters get worse and
worse; she wiggles about and cackles,
ruffies her feathers and generally
shows distress. Finally, with a wild
squawk, she abandons the nest for
good and ali, and the incubating fever
is broken completely.
The westerner has found use for
half q dozen Of these noisy eggs, and
he claims that they pay for themselves
again and again during the year by
holding the hens to their business of
laying and preventing them from vast.
ing the golden hours in useless incu
batting.
