THE DAY OLD CHICK INDUSTRY
BY Elizabeth Clark Hardy.

There is good money in the day old
chick industry, both to the buyer and
the seller. In going into the poultry
business the first lesson for the anna
teur tc learn is to make haste slowly,
instead of investing too much money
in an untried industry. A woman may
raise a few hundred chickens on a
small lot, without investing In an in
cubator and high priced eggs. 1t will
be much cheaper for her to buy day
old chicks. and in caring for them she
will learn some valuable lessons. and
gain a fair working knowledge of
poultry business. In the spring there
Will always be found advertisements
in the agricultural papers for the sale
of baby chickens, and these may be
bought with but little risk TO the pur-
chaser, for IL any should die during
transportation the seller will always
replace them free of cost.
The price of day old chicks range
from 4 to 20 cents, according to the
breed. 1t is not advisable to buy the
cheapest grade as they usually come
from weak parent StOCk, anu iHIeTlOI
chicks are Improbable to raise wheth-
er they come from the hatcheries or
are Matched at home. But 1t is much
safer and cheaper to buy day old
chicks from reliable dealer than to
buy eggs for Matching, as in buying
chicks you get a guarantee Of safe ar
rival and full count. while in buying
eggs you have to take your chances.
and sometimes they are disappoint-
ing.
In starting in with day old chicks
one must, of course, understand some
thing about their care and feeding or
things will go wrong. but until one
has had some experience with an in
cubator things are likely to go
wrong. which is still more expensive.
and a chick In the hand Is worth two
eggs in the incubator.
OF course when chicks have been
ordered preparation for their care
must be made. Warm brooders must

WILSON CRITICISES
POLICY OF UNITED STATES

Cleveland, o., November S.-Henry Lane
Wilson, whose resignation as ambassador
tc Mexico was accepted by President VIII
son, criticised the administration Mex
ican policy in an address before the Union
club here tonight.
II believe that had Huerta been ac-
corded diplomatic courteses. peace would
have been brought nearer than 1t has
been brought" said the former ambas-
sador mo one will say that Huerta is
an ideal head for any government yet
under the conditions that obtain In Mex
leo. insist that with him as the inter-
nationally recognized head Of the gov
eminent. the purposes of peace and or
der and the protection OF the property
and lives of Americans would have been
conserved far better than they have been.
"Nfexico is a Latin country. with Latin
traditions and II should be permitted to
govern itself according to it's own no
tions.''
Mr.. Wilson charged that the admins
traton had deviated from its early an
nounced policy that diplomatic rela tions
would not be extended toward any coun-
try in which the nominal ruler had OBJ
tanned his pre-eminence through violence.
He quoted the administration as hav-
ing announced that the testimony OF
American investors in Mexico would not
be needed In solving the Mexican prob
lem. He ASKED
Whose testimony should be regarded
If not that of those who have interest
in Mexico?"
Mr. Wilson concluded with the inquiry
by what course of reasoning can there
be an insistence from Washington that
an Angio-sa~on system of government
can be established in Mexico, where 80
per cent of the population cannot read
or write?'

The exposition was not money-making
proposition and was not intended as such.
The officials of the club state they hope
it never will be. Its purpose was civic
progress It's aim was to boost Birming-

relation the Birmingham manufacturer
and the Birmingham purchaser. There
appears not a doubt but what they
did it.

operation and harmony was a feature of
the entire show. But If one man could
be singled from the club members who
gave more of his time and effort to the
exposition, and. therefore. is more direct
ly responsible for it's success, 1t would
probably be Chairman ]. D. Rosenberger
of the special exposition committee. Joe
Rosenberger, as he is best known, Is one
OF the city'e most prominent business men
and as chairman of the special exposition
committee he proved his ability. He has
worked untiringly for the success of the

reward when the great crowd at the last
session of the exposition gave him three
cheers.
Those three cheers was all Mr. Rusen-

that what he did was for Birmingham and

unexpected in Mexican politics is never
surprising, and as evidence OF this fact
every hour brings a new rumor regard

to the foreign minister Senior Moheno,
and had gone to Vera Cruz. Another
was that he had committed suicide.
