The great advantage that the arti-
fetal method Of Matching possesses
over the natural is that an incubator

AZURE is maintained throughout the
period of incubation. and the chick
ems. when Matched, require less care
and attention.
The claim is frequently made both
by the advocates Of the natural and
artificial methods, that a larger per-
centage Of fertile eggs is Matched by
means of a hen or an incubator, IN
accordance with their preference. Ny
experience is that there Is practically
nothing to choose between the two
methods so far as actual results are
concerned. Provided that the eggs are
fresh, and that they contain strong
and vigorous germs, the one is equally
satisfactory as the other. 1t is some
times stated that chickens Matched ar
officially are neither so strong nor
possess such vigorous or healthy con-
situations as those brought out in the
natural way. With this I very strong
" disagree. for I have never found
anv difference in this respect. Chick
ems Matched in an incubator are as
strong and as easy to raise, provided
that an eQuable temperature is main

With the great increase Of the non
sitting races of poultry, brOOdy hens
are certainly becoming no more plenti-
full, and those who maintain only birds
of this class have no option but to rely
upon incubators, or else to buy sitting
hens when they require them, a plan
that rarely proves satisfactory. The

FOUND EARL MASON.
Police Located Lost Boy Through
State journal Story.

Through an article that appeared in
the State Journal Friday afternoon
Sheriff Norton was able this morning 20
locate Earl Mason, who left home IN
search of work Thursday. The boy, the
sheriff learned, is working in a livery
stable at Wakarusa. A restaurantkeeper
there read the notice of the boys dis
appearance in the State Journal, and
early this morning called Sheriff Nor
ton to say the boy was working at
Wakarusa.
The boy, who is 10 vars old, is the
son of Mr.. and Mrs. L. E. Mason, 1915
West Fourteenth street. He had earned
little money once before by working
on a farm, and started out Thursday
to find work. His mother feared, when
he did not return, that he had gone to
the country in search of work, and was
worried about him. She went today to
Wakarusa to see him, and may allow
him to remain at work until school
opens She was overjoyed at learning
CT his whereabouts.

THOSE ABSENT BALLOTS
They Make a Flaw in the Machinery
of the Election Law.

The recent primary has brought to light
several serious flaws in the law providing
for ballots of absent voters which, 1t IS
believed, will have to be remed1ed or VIII
make the law dangerous. One of the
worst flaws is that county clerks are ut
terly unable to check up and verify the
absent votes returned to them where the
voters claimed residence in the country
precincts.
In the city it is comparatively simple
matter. All the clerk has to do is to
check up the names of the absent voters
with the register in the office of the COM
missioner of elections to be sure that no.
body voted more than once, or that per-
sons did not vote who were not entitled to
a franchise. But in the country districts
it is different.
In the last primary the votes of half
dozen absent voters who claimed resi-
dence in some rural precinct in Shawnee
county were received. If the clerk dill
ascertaining that they were genuine bal
lots.
1t is pointed out that absent votes might
be cast anywhere and everywhere over
the state by men who claimed rura-
residence and there would be way TO
ascertain that the votes were genuine.
And thus hundreds of bogus votes might
be poIled and counted without being de-
tected, might make an endless amount
of trouble to ascertain their validity.
The counting of the votes of absent
voters occasions a good deal of extra
work at best, and is believed to amount
to very little in the results of elections.
But the complications that have come to
light are believed to make the law dan
gerous in it's application unless the flaws
detected are remedied in some manner.

STICHER'S PLAN.
Usage Progressive Editor Would Have
Taft and T. II. on Ticket.

Henry c. Sticher, editor of the Usage
City Public Opinion, is the. first Pro-
gressive to endorse the plan to promote
harmony among the warning faction
in the Republican party. Sticher this
week went on record favoring the plac-
ing of Taft electoral candidates on the
Republican ballot in the November
election.
While in Topeka Sticher declared that
he favored the placing of the Roose-
welt electoral candidates in the In
dependent column and the giving of
the right of way in the Republican
column to the Taft followers. This
plan would likely aid in promoting good
Will and fellowship among the political
leaders who have been at war since
the Chicago convention in June. 1t
would also do away with the action
now pending in the United States SUI
preme court and permit the Kansas
voters to choose between Wilson, Roose-
welt or Taft in the November fight.
AS the situation now stands, unless
the United States supreme court
should order the names of the Roose-
the Republican ballot. they would oc-
cupy this space, as they received the
popular majority over the Taft candi-
dates in the statewide primaries. Fail
ure to order these names off the bal
lot, it is claimed, would disfranchise
thousands of Kansas Republicans who
desire to vote for the reelection of
Taft. Now Sticher appears with an
