AS every poultry farmer knows,
there are times when he does not
want his hens to set and there are
some hens he does not want to set at
any time. To insure obedience by
the stupid birds a California man has
invented the apparatus presented
here. A breast plate has two wire
legs extending down from it. On
either end of the plate are straps,
which pass under the chickens wings
and buckle over its back. The legs

Eggs from yearIing ducks hatch
well but geese must be about three

A few drops of little liquid sulphur

A little cotton seed meal mixed
