LIVES SAVED BY TELEPHONE.
One Man Drank Poison, and Another
Severed Four Arteries.

Within the last several days two lives
have been saved over the telephone.
Rev. W. Lentz, OF Orders, Breth-
rem minister, took poison by mistake tor
his medicine. No physician being here,
his family got instruction from a distant
physician. AntidoteS were administered
and his life was saved.
William Mlonlch, in Pendleton county,
tried to cut bullet from the breach OF q
gun. The knife slipped and severed four
arteries in his wrist. He was in danger
OF bleeding to death. DR.. Meyers, al
Oak Flat, SIX miles away, gave inStruc-
tons over the phone. Another life was
saved. Mr.. Mionich is 70 years old.
SO daily are valuable lives preserved
and saved by the use Of the Jefferson
County Telephone.

Not To Be Fooled.

ANY one who picks Scot as easy game

charitable folk, but they positively will
not be gulled. Their "canniness" is well
illustrated in this anecdote from Scraps
He was tramp, and had come, in the
course of his wanderings, upon neat
little villa in the suburbs of London. In
the front garden a big. fair-bearded man,

Runninu the Incubator.

Running the lnCupdtoi'
In order to make a success OF aTll-
fetal incubation, four things are neces-
sary-hatchable eggs, proper tenn
perature, supply of oxygen sufflcient
for the needs of the developing en-
bryos, and finally the eggs must De
turned so that the embryos do not
stick fast to the shell membranes.
Selecting the Eggs.
Success or failure may depend upon
the quality of the eggs used. There
is no incubator made that will hatch
poor eggs into strong chicks, and
many of the failures in artificial incu-
baton are due to the poor quality OF
the eggs employed We have paid too
little attention in the past to the vigor
of the breeding stock. Vigor is every
thing. Without vigor there can be no
success either in the production OF
fancy or utility fowls. Select for
breeders the lusty, active birds-the
cocks that crow and the hens that
sing.
1t is preferable to have the eggs not
more than a week old, for the older
the eggs the less vigorous the germs.
But freshness is not the only quality
desirable. II the eggs are laid by hens
that are too fat, or are improperly fed,
or are covered with lice. or are run
down and debilitated. or are out OF
condition in any way, they are not

suitable either for natural or artificial
incubation. In short, the eggs should
be laid by mature fowls in the pink OF

be of good average size, neither too
large nor too small, symmetrical IN

the thermometer should stand de-
ponds upon where 1t is placed

The direction sent with the incubator
should be followed In this matter, and
care should be taken to maintain prac-
tically uniform temperature through.
out the whole three weeks OF incuba-
ton. Personally l favor the Their
mometer which records merely the air
temperature, the bulb being on level
with the tops Of the eggs. With the
thermometer located in this way a
temperature Of 1929 from start to
finish gives satisfactory matches at the
right time.
Turning.
During its growth the embryo floats
in the albumin so that when an egg
Is lying naturally on its side the en-
bryo is Immediately underneath the
highest part Of the she'll and is thus
In position to be most quickly and
effectively warmed when brooded by
the mother hen. In this position 1t is
easy for the membranes which sur
round the embryo to dry fast, or stick
to the shell membranes, and when this
takes place the egg either does not
hatch, or the chick is cripple due to
its unsymmetrical development. Turn
Ing the eggs is for the purpose Of
changing the position Of the embryos,
thus preventing them from sticking to
the shell membranes. The eggs should
be turned regularly twice each day.
Moisture and Ventilation.

requires oxygen for its continued ex-
istence. Oxygen Is absorbed, and car
bon dioxide is thrown off practically
In the same way as in the case Of
adult animals The circulation OF air
through the incubating chamber
should be rapid enough to supply suffi-
cient oxygen, and also to remove the
gases which are produced as result
Of the vital activity. On the other
hand, the circulation of air should not
be too rapid, as in that case too much
moisture might be carried away from
the eggs, thus injuring the hatch. Egg
shells are porous, and they allow the
watery contents to evaporate slowly.
II the eggs do not lose enough mois-
ture, the hatch Is apt to be poor, and
the chicks weak-many Of them dying
from non-absorption OF the contents Of

ture is too excessive the hatch will be
injured. For best results the eggs
should neither lose too much nor too
little moisture. In practice there is

Directions for the Use Of This Table.

Directions for the Use Of This Table,
After placing the eggs upon the
trays ready for the incubator set the
trays upon a pair of scales reading to
ounces and note the total weight OF
the eggs and trays. (The trays should
be thoroughly dry.) Afr a few days
weigh again. Substract this from the
first weight. This will give the actual
loss In weight Of the eggs.
EXAMPLE.-Suppose that you have
2OS eggs on the trays; that the first
weight with trays is "a pounds 2
ounces, and that on the sixth day the
weight is % pounds ounces. Then
the actual loss in weight of the eggs is
II ounces. Now look in the table for

the loss in weight Of 100 eggs for six
days This is 10 ounces. Ten ounces
multiplied by 2.0S gives 20.S ounces,
which is the calculated loss for 20S
eggs for six days. Therefore the eggs
have not been losing weight as rapidly
as they should, and the eggs should be
given more ventilation or the Their
mometer should be removed to a drier
location. ct is assumed that the eggs
are kept uniformly at the proper tenn
peratures.) After the eggs have been
tested for the infertile ones weigh
again and proceed as before.
If the eggs have lost too much
weight give more moisture or less ven.
tilation.
If the eggs have not lost enough
weight open the ventilators, or place
the incubator in a drier place.
Airing and Cooling Eggs During Incu,
baton.
Eggs Matched under natural condi-
lions are left unprotected when the
broody hen leaves the nest in search
of food. At such times the eggs be-
come cool or even cold
In the case Of natural incubation II
would seem that the process of cool.
ing and airing is due to the necessity
of the mother hen of obtaining food,
and probably has no connection what
ever with normal incubation. Instead
of being of benefit, the cooling of eggs
during incubation may be, and fire.
Quently is, detrimental, inasmuch as
cooling the eggs tends to slow down
the vital processes and delays the de.
velopment of the embryos
In the case of machines in which the
ventilation is imperfect it is quite pos
sible that the cooling and airing
process may be of benefit by giving
the embryos fresh air rather than
through the cooling effect.
At Matching Time.
After the eggs begin to pip, the door
Of the incubator should not be opened
so as to allow cold air to strike the
partly-hatched chicks, as they are very
tender at this stage and easily catch
cold. The chicks can be ruined
easily at this time if allowed to
pant either on account of too high
temperature or a lack of fresh
air. If they pant, either the tenn
perature should be lowered, or more
air admitted, or portion of the chicks
removed at once to a brooder. 1t is
generally best, however, to allow all
Of the chicks to remain undisturbed in
the incubator for "a hours, the temper.

Finally, it must be remembered that
in operating an incubator one is deal

entirely different matter than the op-

arator or grain binder, and so, If a
farmer does not have the time or the
patience to give the incubator careful,
systematic attention, it is better to let
the hens do the Matching.
