it take for an egg to be pure after
the hens are pepned.
Send me some information by re-
turn mail, as am anxious to save
my chickens. Respectfully,
MRS r.. L, ESKEW.
ANSWER
Your chickens evidently had a
liver trouble which has caused the
deaths You should yard them off
Of a free range and change their
feed. Give them mixture of bran,
shorts and cornmeal to which has
been added some good condition
powders, such as Barker's or Con-
keys, or Black Draught stock pow
ders. This will act on their liver
freely and get 1T in good working
order The corn and oats should
be omitted from their feed until
they get straight. Too much corn,
especially during such weather as
we have had the past winter, is
more than apt to cause their sys-
TENS to get out of condition. They
should also have clean water with
a small piece Of oopperas in it each
day. They should be fed one feed
each day of grain that has been
scalded or scalded oats. 1t should
be fed in straw or little one foot
deep and make them take exercise
for IT. -

ANSWER.

You can keep from 500 to 1000
chickens on one-half acre of land, if
they are properly housed and cared
for. 1t would pay you to visit some
plant and see how the chickens are
handled before you attempt the
business on a large SCALE
Any of the Mediterranean varie-
ties are great layers and will not
bother you with setting hens. Still
there are other varieties, even of
the broody kind that lay equally as
many eggs during the winter months
and if they are kept broken up from
setting will lay as many eggs dur
ing the II months Eggs pay bet
ter than chickens unless you can
raise broilers during the winter.
Some people make the poultry
business pay, where others make
failure of it, and it depends large
ly upon your being adapted to this
kind of work as to whether it will
pay you or not
Atlanta is a good market for poul-
try. also eggs and especially if they
are first-class. and if you once set
your trade established. l would adj
wise you to attempt it on a very
small scale the first year and if you
succeed you can increase your BUSH
ness.

Matched chickens are just as good

Greenvnle. S. c..
win you please answer the following
questions?
What causes chickens to die in the
shell lust about time for them to
hatch? / have a hot-water incubator
and the heat rs just about right all
the time; but out of 100 eggs, about
is died in the shell. They could not
pip the shell: and some that Matched
were crippled. When do you turn
eggs last? Should the chickens have
water before you feed them? IS
Please answer, through The Journal
and oblige, SUBSCRIBER.
w B. G.
ANSWER.
The man who can solve the ques-
e. ton why chickens die in the shell at
the last part of the hatch, and cor
rect il, has fortune. Occasionally
person will get off a perfect hatch
and not have this to occur, but in nine
cases out of ten, a small percentage
OF chickens will be found dead in the
shell at the last day; and, so far,
there has never been any positive So
luton of this question. The small
percentage that you have reported
out Of the hundred eggs is certainly
satisfactory, and is away above the
average hatch made by most people.
The crippled chickens Indicate that
at some time during the hatch the
Incubator was too hot and the tenn
peTature was not uniform. On the
seventeenth day you should cease
turning the eggs, as the chickens
usually get their heads at the. top
Of the shell on the seventeenth or
eighteenth day, and the egg should
not be disturbed after that time.
usually water my little chickens when
they are first removed from the in
cubator. and then they are ready for
their feed.

Oklahoma City, Ok.-Actual hos.

Thomson, encouraged by the arrival
in Delaware county of Adjt. Gen.

of thirty deputies, and under cover
of darkness approached to within a
quarter of a mile of Old Jay, where
the county records are guarded by an
armed force of Old Jay partisans.
Hastily improvising Notifications in
front of the town, Thomson sent one.
half of his men to approach the oppo-
site side. Fire was opened on the
town by both divisions of deputies
and immediately responded to by the

HOW BANKS HIT THE FARMER
Country Institutions Send Their Sur
plus to New York to Keep Up
Interest Rates.

Washington.lWhy farmers and
small town merchants are compelled
to pay high rates for money when they
need it, was told at the money trust"
hearing by ]. H. Greisel of Griesel &
Rogers of New York. He was asked:
What would be the result OF fixing
a rate of interest on money on the
New York stock exchange?"
Why, it would keep the money at
home in the country banks" he an.
swered.
Mr.. Griesel said that he frequently
lent 20 to 25 million dollars day on
the stock exchange. This was money
sent to New York by country banks,
which thus disposed of their surplus
cash in order to maintain interest
rates at home. With fixed rate of
interest on the stock exchange this
country money would not be sent to
New York, and the country banks, in
order to find profitable outlet for it
at home, would be forced to reduce
their rates on loans.

SICKLES MUST PAY SHORTAGE
NEW YORK OFFICIAL THREATENS
COURT PROCEEDINGS.
Attorney General Demands That
Money Missing From Monument
Funds Be Made Good by the
Commission.

Albany, N. Y.-Attorney General
Carmody has made a demand upon
the members of the New York Monu-
ments Commission to make good an
alleged shortage in its accounts,
amounting to $2S,746.44 In letter
sent to them the attorney general says
that unless his request is complied
with he will take action to have the
funds restored to the state treasury.
Mr.. Carmody said he was compelled
to take this action because of the
failure of Gen. Daniel E. Sickles to
keep repeated promises to reimburse
the state for moneys unac6ounted for
as chairman of the commission. In
his letter the attorney general ex-
pressed the hope that legal steps may
be avoided by members of the COM
mission taking immediate action to re-
store these funds to the state treasury.
Among those to whom the letter
was sent are General Sickles, Gen.
Arson G. McCook Gen. Horatio C..
King, Col Lewis r. Stegman and Rep
resentative T. M. Bradley.
Mr. Carmody said that if a court
action became necessary, it will not
be instituted until after December 20,
when the extension of time granted
General Sickles to make an account
ing will expire.
