KEEPS HENS AT THEIR WORK

Man Cures Them Of Desire

Owners of hens are frequently
greatly annoyed by the persistent de.
sire of their fowls to set, in season
and out, on eggs, stones or other OBJ.
5ects to hand. But western man has
evolved a plan to circumvent the hen
In this respect.
The cure consists of cheap watch,
with loud and clear tick, inclosed in
q case that is white and shaped like
an egg. When one of the hens be-
longing to this westerner manifests q
desire to set out OF season he gently
places the bogus egg under her skel.
tering breast. The egg" ticks cheer.
fully away, and soon the hen begins to
evtnce signs Of uneasiness and stirs
the noisy egg around with her bill,
thinking, no doubt, that It Is already
time for 1t to hatch. She becomes
more and more uneasy as the noise
continues, and soon jumps of the nest
and runs about a while to cool of.
Soon, however, she returns to her self
imposed task. Matters get worse and
worse; she wiggles about and cackles,
ruffies her feathers and generally
shows distress. Finally, with n pfild
squawk, she abandons the nest for
good and all, and the incubating fever
lie broken completely.
The westerner has found use for
half q dozen Of these noisy eggs. and
he claims that they pay for themselves
again and again during the year by
holding the hens to their business Of
laying and preventing them from vast
ing the golden hours in useless incu
batting.

COLORADO RIVER
NILE OF AMERICA

The Colorado river, which
drains an area of some 100000
square miles, is often called the
Nile of America, and like the
Nile, it is subject to an annual
summer rise which comes at the
time the water is most needed for
irrigation. In Water Supply paper

Nile and with the Susquehanna.
The Nile is similar in type to
the Colorado; the Susquehanna
shows the difference in flow be-
tween arid and humid regions.

been used. The Colorado has been
taken as the standard of compar.
ison.
The Nile has ST. times the
drainage area and the SusauehaDna
about one-eighth the area of the
Colorado. The rainfall in the Nile
basin is 3.8 times greater. The
run-of per square mile from the
Nile basin 10 times greater; that
from Susquehanna basin is 81
times greater. The discharge Of
the Nile is 1913 times greater than
that of the Colorado; that of the
S0squehanna is AS times greater.
The annual maximum flow of the
Colorado varies from $4,000 to
100000 second feet and occurs
May. June or July; for the Nile il
is about 353, 900 second feet and
occurs about the first of Septem.
Der: for the Susquehanna it is
from 10000 to $4,000 second-
feet and occurs during March,
April or May.
The annual minimum flow of the
Colorado varies from $500 to
5000 second-feet, and occurs dur
ing January or February; that of
the Mile is about 1880 second
feet. nd occurs about the end of
May; for the Susquehanna it Is
from 1900 to 100 second-feet,
and occurs in September or

The mean flow of the Colorado
for the period 1894 to 1903 was
10. 700 second-feet. The. mean
flow for the period 1894 to 1910,
however was 25. 400 second-feet;
