MATCHING TIME.
Hints for Chicken Raisers as to TAX
ing Care Of Eggs.

1t is now in order to condemn the
incubator and breed of fowls we
have, and make change, often for
the worse. II the machine Is tight,
and all there, brush it up, clean it
out; and If it did not do good work
last season, change the location and
have the thermometer tested, or buy
testedone. The thermometer Is the
cause of much trouble; SO be sure it
Is accurate
Perhaps you don't know what good
work Is and expect too much; chick
from two eggs is good enuogh.
Changing from the cellar to liv-
ing room, or vice versa, OF providing
better ventilation in the cellar, often
changes luck.
Ventilation in the machine is of as
much, or more, Importance than mois-
ture; SO ventilate without sending a
current Of air over or through the
machine. A constant current of air
over or through the machine means
much evaporation of the egg mois-
ture: so prevent this as much as pos
sible.
After the first week or so, eggs
can stand good deal of cooling off
but cooling by chilling in cold
room is bad thing. If the room is
cold, better cover the eggs with a
soft cloth, or several thicknesses IL
necessary. Cool slowly.
| Changing incubators every time we
read OF better one Is poor business
and means more dissatisfaction. On
the other hand, one machine may
suit your location, condition. or per-
sonality better than some other, but
II you have tried two or three, and
