. Mrs. Stevens had preserved lot of
plums, but every jar of them ferment-
ed, and she threw them into the
waste, and the hens gobbled the lot.
That was the answer.
The most staid and respectable of
the biddies were soon lettering round
as if on springs, making vain stabs at
imaginary worms, while the roosters
strutted unsteadily about and crowed
h1lariously. One hen died from the
effects of her debauch.

Great Expectations

Not the great expectations that
formed the basis of Dickens charm
ing story, but those of the brand new
poultry raiser concern us here. Most
ly they are so large and fanciful as to
arouse ones mirth we're it not for the
fact that their inevitable SCATTERING
is no laughing matter. To the be-
ginner these expectations are SEEM
ingly we'll grounded. He bases them
on statements made by people
established in the business. 1t is a
downright shame that such should be
the case and, in the long run, it works
great harm to the poultry raising
business in general. 1t would be
much better if such unfounded notions
of the great profits of poultry raising
were not so carelessly flung about.
A fairly correct idea of the probable
not possible-profits to be made, and
the manner of their making, would
keep many predestined failures out
of the business and would avert ser
ious disappointment in other cases.
We cannot wonder at the inflated
expectations of many beginners when
we read statements like the following:
'.You will do extremely we'll if you
raise to maturity one pullet for every
three eggs you put into your 1ncu-
bator. This means you must hatch
300 out of every 400 eggs you start
out with. raise 80 out of every 100
chicks you hatch, and that one-half
of the birds you raise will be pullets.
If you use intelligence and are untir-
ing in your efforts, unless some mis-
hap befalIs you, you will doubtless
do this. -
You have about as much chance or
doing this as you have of falling Off
the top of the Washington monument
without hurting yourself. Yet the
person who makes this statement Tin
an article IN a we'll known poultry
iournaD is very capable poultry
raiser herself and one of the last
people in the world to make a de-
Iiberate misstatement or to 1nten-
tionally convey a false impression.
She simply wakes enthusiastic over
her subject and puts its best-its ex-
ceedingly best-foot forward. What
she says you can do but unless you
are Matching from eggs that have not
been handled by express and have the
very best equipment for Matching and
brooding and-above all-have the

W. c. T. u. WOMAN'S HENS REVEL
In PLUM SOUSE.

BANGOR, Me-, Nov. 49, Mrs.
Harry Stevens of Sabatis is member
of the Women's Christian Temperance
Union, and so she was terribly shock
ed the other day to observe that all her
hens we're staggering around the yard
in disgraceful state of intoxication.
Where did they get the liquor?
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-12-01

may be prevented by unceasing work
and vigilance, but there are others
that battle all efforts of the hardest
working and most experienced poultry
raiser. These things should be men
toned to the new man.
I diverged bit. Speaking of the
unusually bad season; the agent of a
we'll known incubator, when visiting
me two months ago, told me that the
average of Matching for the season
was 22h per cent (22% good chicks
to every 100 eggs set). 1t seemed in
credible but he based his statement
on the records of over 1000 matches
that he had accumulated while travel
ling through Washington, Idaho and
Oregon. These figures, he was care
full to inform me, did not concern
his machine alone but embraced hat
ches by all sorts and makes of in
cubatorS.
Why do we present so unique a
view of the subject? Certain adver-
Users of poultry and certain other
professional poultry topicers will say
it's a poor bird that fouls it's own nest
and that those with stuff to sell should
never fail in optimism. Certain
members of the BE Sunny" club
will call our attitude crouch. Let
it go at that. The actual reason is
that we would like to keep a lot of
people from almost
certain failure or losses that they
cannot afford to stand. Properly
conducted, the business of poultry
raising or-to be more exact-egg
producing seems to us to offer better
returns than any other kind of out
door business; but it needs industry
and energy and some intelligence and
also-it must never be forgotten-such
previous training as will not make it
impossible to do great deal of nasty
and disagreeable work without dis
gushing one with the business in
general. Before taking it up as a
serious business one should ask him
self if he can contemplate the clean
ing of roosts and the moving of man
ure piles for years to come without
shuddering at the prospect.

perience as the lady herself possesses
you won't come within a mile OF
doing it. And even then you cannot
do it unless you work under the most
favorable conditions all the time, and
without accident or mishap of any
kind.
Let me state some real happenings
Prof. Gowell, of Orono, Maine, was
one of the greatest experts ever
known in the business of poultry rails
ing. He originated dry mash feed
ing. He devised the open front
house. He conducted the first i'm
portant experiments in trap nesting
and in many other ways contributed
wonderfully to the advancement OF
scientific principles in poultry rails
ing. So he may safely be considered
as one possessing knowledge and the
skill to apply it. Yet, when Prof.
GoweH resigned his position at the
Maine Experiment Station to con-
duct poultry farm of his own in the
same town he set 5000 eggs in order
to raise the 1900 pullets he needed
for stocking his farm. That is six
eggs to each pullet, count them. And,
mind you, these eggs we're from the
stock best known in the country for
vigor and productiveness and were
not handled repeatedly by draying
and expressing. So this skilled expert
expected but one pullet to six eggs.
Luck favored him, however, and he
raised nearly 1000 pullets-one pullet
to four and one-half eggs; but SO un-
expectedly good was this result that
he was caught without laying quarters
for the extra 500 pulIets.
Can the brand new poultry raiser
reasonably expect better success that
SO great an authority as Prof. Gowell
counted on in his own case? Just
answer this question yourself.
The past year will be remembered
by poultry raisers throughout the
Northwest as embracing the worst
weather conditions ever known since
poultry raising began here. Many
poultrymen who possessed the full
measure of industry and skill and ex-
perience had a disastrous season; few
of them made a decent profit. Eggs
everywhere Matched badly and the
losses in brooding were terrific. And
this condition was wide spread; from
all accounts the Fasteners had the
worst year ever known. Yet weather
is never mentioned as a possible
factor in the success or failure of a
poultry enterprise, the beginner has
never heard of it. 1t is the most i'm
portant factor of all, perhaps, but the
professional poultry writer never
speaks of it. Rats and other pre-
datory vermin, lice and such small
deer are relatively unimportant
factors but make an aggregate that
has in some cases proved sufficient to
put poultry raiser out of business.
