Many of the above are realiz-
ing the advantage to them of buying
chicks instead of doing their own
Matching and are taking advantage
of their opportunity.
For the beginner who must buy
something in order to get started, it
would be much better to buy chicks
and be certain of what he would re-
ceive, also know what would be the
cost, rather than uncertainties in the
shape of eggs. AS rule chicks can
be shipped much safer than eggs, for
eggs after they are tossed about by
the expressman, shken up on the cars
and exposed sometimes to extremes
of both heat and cold, will not hatch
strong, hardy chick, even it the
fertility is good.
The prices at which chicks are sold
usually do not permit of large profits
being made by the hatchery. The
hatcheries in the Northwest generally
have their own stock to produce the
eggs from and instead of sending the
eggs to market at low price they
hatch them into chicks and sell
them for enough above cost to pay
for the extra labor and fair margin
of profit which of course they are in
titled to for their risk and money in
vested in buildings and machines. 1t
is not get rich quick proposition by
any means, but pays little better
than selling the eggs to market at the
lowest price for the year. Those who
have their own stock to get the eggs
from can furnish chicks cheaper than
those who buy their eggs from the
farmers, and usually also furnish the
best chicks.

chicks has been carried on to great
extent for many years in the east and
in California it is not generally known
by the majority Of poultry raisers
and farmers in the Northwest. Many
people think it impossible to ship
chicks long distance and have them
arrive at their destination in good
condition. To those | will say that
it is an easy matter to ship chicks
when they are about "a hours old and
have them on the journey as long as
p hours, and arrive at their destina-
tion in first class shape.
Chicks are shipped in boxes made
especially for the purpose. Some
times those are made from heavy
cardboard, sometimes of wood. I
prefer and use the latter. Those
boxes are made to hold 100 chicks or
less. Ventilation is arranged for
by covering of burlap, sometimes
two thicknesses, sometimes one, de-
pending on how cold or warm it is,
the number of chicks and what
breed iu each box. Good judgment
and care must be exercised here or
else the customer and sometimes the
shipper may suffer loss. When once
a person has the experience he can
assume all risks and guarantee safe
arrival OF chicks to any point he
ships. Of course this cannot be done
by inexperienced persons.
The weight of each box and 100
chicks is usually from IA to 20 pounds,
depending on the kind OF boxes used
and the breed of chicks. No feed or
water is sent with chicks, neither are
they watered or feed before ship
ment. This is entirely unnecessary
as we know best results in raising
chicks are obtained when withhold

1.-THE greatest poultry producing sec
tion in the worId) there are great
number of hatcheries who do nothing
else than hatch chicks the year
round. There are many who have 6
capacity of 10, 900 to so, 600 eggs at 6
time; some up to 100, 900. Some OF
these large hatcheries keeps no chick
ems themselves, but there are many
who do. Many of them buy all their
eggs from the ''egg farmers, pay.
ing from five to ten cents dozen
above market quotations. These "ege
farmers as rule, do not do their
own Matching, but get what chicks
they need from the hatcheries.
Or course there are those who dc
their own Matching, sell chicks, eggs
for Matching and breeding stock.
The above is as l found it when visit
ing several poultry farms and hatch
cries there seven years ago and I am
informed that the business is carried
on along the same lines now, only on
much larger scale. The largest
hatchery has capacity of 805, 0OO
eggs at one time. This is, as far as
we know, the largest hatchery in the
world.
With Matching carried on in one
little place of the country to the ex-
tent here mentioned we have still a
great multitude OF people who look
upon poultry raising as only fit for
the "wimin folks. Those men sniff
up their noses at the mere thought
of raising chickens. Too small a
thing for them and not worthy OF
their consideration. But l am get
ting way from my subject.
During the last two years the
poultry raisers as we'll as the general
farmer in the Northwest have made
great progress along the lines OF com
mercial poultry raising and we now
have hatcheries of fair capacity. The
largest known has capacity of %,
600 eggs at time. Now this is as II
should be for this reason: There are
a great many people who could raise
and take care of quite large flock
of birds, but would be unable to dc
their own Matching and consequently
have had to go without the income
their poultry would bring. 1t woulc
not be profitable for them to do theil
own Matching as they usually do moi
have a suitable place to run theil
machine and consequently have {
poor hatch which always produces

Originality Should Be Aim, and a Lit

Every bride likes to have something
original, and as the ideal gift
should be something in an en-
dearing form and the tendency
of the season is to have many brides
maids, the question of expense has
also to be considered.
1t is now quite smart to give a pair
of gold or enameled hatpins with in
tertwined initials of bride and groom
and the date of the wedding. Equally
appropriate are these set with birth
stone of the bride or the different
bridesmaids.
Small charms for watch or chatelaine
In bridal emblems are pretty. These
might be tiny garter in deep yellow
gold,a weddingbe with initials of bride
and bridegroom and date engraved on

bridegroom. On the right side should
be a large monogram OF the brides

Snail Culture Profitable.

French farmers find snail culture a
profitable undertaking AS many as
100000 first quality" snails, the price
of which throughout the year aver
ages $1.70 thousand, can be reared
on an acre of land. They have to be
fed only once a day, preferably in the
evening, and though extremely vora-
cious are by no means fastidious. After
a fall of rain, which seems to sharpen
their appetites, bed of 100000 will
demolish a barrow load Of cabbage in
a very short space of time.

Hair Fabrics.

In the manufacture of hair fabrics
the hair is reduced to paste by a SOL
vent and all kinds of hair and ibers
are used. The paste is run through
an artificial silk spinner and drawn
from the spinner in threads. Some of
these are a yard or more in length.
They can be braided or woven like ar
tifcial horse-hair. Hair composition
of superior quality is kept for the man.

The WANDERING Jew,

Matthew Paris and Roger Wendover
identified the Wander Jew as Carta-

Pontius Plate. Other authorities
identify him as Ahasuerus, a cobbler
of Jerusalem. The legend is far older
than the events which it proposes as
its central feature. In the course Of
its popularity throughout the middle
ages 1t has acquired many foreign ele-
ments by accretion.
