CHICKS DYING IN THE SHELL
Common Trouble In HatohIng and Ono
Causing Many Failures Unno-
tloed for Many Years.

Chicks dying in the shell is a very
common trouble In Matching and one
which causes many failures each year.
There was no attempt to discover why
chicks die In the shell until the hatch
Ing OF them with incubators became
popular. although this trouble predom-
mated when old biddy sat on the eggs
long before the incubator was even
thought Of. There were only a few
under each hen at the most, and moth
Ing was thought of 1t, but when the In
cubator came into the field and made
1t possible TO hatch them by the hun
dreds the cause of chicks dying in the
shell came up for discussion.
Remember that the secret of secur-
ing high per cent matches depends as
much upon strongly fertilized eggs
laid by healthy, vigorous birds as upon
proper incubation. The more frequent
causes Of chicks dying in the shell
where the incubator or operator Is at
fault are irregular temperature, neg
lect in turning the eggs, improper ven
tilation or more frequently caused by
operating the incubator in poorly
ventilated room. The directions ac.
companying an incubator are general.

followed carefully no greater trouble
should be experienced with the chicks

cubated by artificial than by natural
means. due allowance being made for
the experience of the operator.
Why chicks die in the shell is some

for the causes are not always the
same. Perhaps not in two cases in
twenty will the conditions under
which the egsg are incubated or the

be obtained and introduced in place Of
the original queen, and in a short time
the workers will all be Of the same
race as the introduced queen. This is
due to the fact that during the sea-
son worker bees die rapidly, and after
requeening they are replaced by this
offspring Of the new queen.
"A more important consideration in
purchasing colonies Of bees is to see
to 1t that they are free from disease.
IN many states and counties there are
inspectors of apiaries who can be con-
suited on this point. but il this is not
possible even a novice can tell
whether or not there is anything
wrong with the brood, and it is always
safest to refuse hives containing dead
brood.
The best time OF the year to begin

After marrying the coast Of Britain

isles Of SC|L.LY
Group That Are Situated South
west of England.
Period at Which Islands Were sepa-H
rated from the Mainland Must BE
Far Beyond the Reach Of .
History.

London People sometimes apply
the term Lyonesse to the whole OF
Cornwall, which is a mistake. II there
ever was such land at all It lay west
ward of Cornwall, and the SciEy Isles
are its relics. The name OF Arthur
plays like lambert light about the
district: but the period at which the
Settles were separated from the
mainland must be far beyond the
reach Of history, which in England can
only explore about two thousand years
backward. The Lyonesse of romance
extended to the southwest of Lands
End, and was connected in race and
legend with the Leon Of Brittany. AS
matter Of geology the tradition has
no satisfactory basis, though there
are traces of submerged forests in
Mounts Bay, and the old Cornish
name Of st. MichaeIs Mount repre-
sents that rock as having once stood
in the center of woodland. In reality
the islands are the last upheavals OF
that backbone of granite which is so
impressive on Dartmoor and which
again comes into notice on the Bod
min Moors. True, ocean depths do not
begin till far beyond the islands, SO
that in its relation to the great sub
marine platform Scilly may be con-
sidered structurally attached to Brit
ain. as Britain is to the Continent.
Some portion of the vanished region
may have survived, adjoining the
coasts Of Mounts Bay, till the year
1893, when, according to the Saxon
chronicle, Lyonesse was destroyed in
great tempest.
When we come to the genuine his
tory of Scilly there are some interest
ing things to notice. The islands seem
TO have been used as a penal settle
ment in Roman times; and in the sixth
century they gave home to the
WEIGH st. Samson, who became bish-
OPP of Dol, and who has left footprints
in Guernsey as well as in Devon and
Cornwall The Isle of Samson is now
uninhabited, but it may have had a
fairly large population when the saint
established an oratory here; there
are many traces Of early occupation.
To many it is still more interesting as
