FARM I
POULTRY
ARRANGEMENT OF NEST BOX
Canadian Expert Recommends Use of
Earth or Overturned Sod, Covered
With Straw or Chaff.

A nest can be made out of an old
box about II inches square and SIX
inches deep. Professor Graham of the
Ontario Agricultural college recon-
mends that some earth or an over
turned sod be placed in the bottom of
the box, taking care to have the cor
ners very full so that no eggs can
roll out from the hen and get chilled
Next put on about two inches Of
straw or chaff; and then put a few
earthenware eggs into the nest. Place
the nest in some pen where nothing
can disturb the hen, and put her on
after dark. Feed and water must be
within easy reach and a dust bath
should also be convenient. If the
hen is setting quietly the next day Il
will be safe to put the eggs under
her.
Another nest box that has given
considerable satisfaction, is made in
three compartments. A IL inch board
cut in three four foot lengths and one
used for the top, one for the back.
and the other for the bottom. The
partitions and ends are made of the
same material cut in one foot lengths.
Along the front is a four inch strip
to keep in the litter. To this Is hinged
a Slated door, which, when opened
forms a platform in front of the nest.
The work of filling the nests and set

ting the hen can be proceeded with as
already described. These boxes may
be piled one above the other
When the hens are let off the nests
to feed, the doors of the nest boxes
should be closed, which compels the
hens to remain on the floor until they
have had a chance to feed. The hens
will not return to the same nests, but
this is rather likely to be of benefit
than otherwise. All hens do not SCI
at exactly the same temperature, and
an occasional change averages up the
temperature for all the settings OF
eggs.
No hen should be allowed to set, I'm
less she is free from lice. The mac
ton of the bird is conducive to rapid
multiplication of any lice there may be

ishes.
About the seventh day the eggs
should be tested, the infertile ones re
moved, and the balance put back in
the nests. After testing it is usually
found that the eggs from four hens
can be put under three. This leaves
one hen with no eggs, and new set
ting can be put under her.
When the chicks arrive two or three
patches can be put with one hen
which leaves more hens at liberty to
sit, or If there is no more Matching
to be done they can be put back in the
laying pens.

Costly Ivory Mats.

There are but three mats of ivory
in existence? The largest one meas
ures eight feet by four feet, and, al
though made in the north of India, has
a Greek design for border. 1t is used
only on state occasions, like the sign
ing of important state documents.
The cost of this precious mat was al
most incalculable, for more than
6,400 pounds of pure ivory was used
in it's construction. Only the finest
and most flexible strips of material
could be used, and the mat is like the
finest woven fabric.

CHAPTER XIII.

Wright had no means of knowing
what it was Judge Gilbert had to pro-
pose to him, but he felt certain that it
had some connection with his news
paper and with the campaign now end
ing In lurid blaze of political pyro-
technics. Gloria Kerr was the last
person he would have thought of meet
ing i'll Gilbert's office. He had prom
ised himself that after The election, no
matter whether it went his way or not,
he would see her and make his ex-
cuses for not having had the time to
be with her as he had wished. He
would also begin to look about for a
purchaser for the News He hoped he
would have no difficulty in getting Clio
ria to leave Belmont. Then for the
new life with her where they could be
ever together, one In heart and hope
and happiness.
When Williams told Wright that
Judge Gilbert was ready to see him,
he opened the door and saw the law
yer advancing to meet him with ex-
tended hand. The adviser of Belmont
corporations knew the value Of a hand
shake and cordial greeting. 1t made
visit to his Office take on the air of
a social affair.
I'm so glad you came" he said to
the editor, shaking hands heartily.
I came as soon as I could" Wright
was not going to be outdone, and
therefore used his most genial tone,
although the shaking hands on his
side was a perfunetory performance.
He knew Judge Gilbert's real attitude,
and undue cordially under the circum-
stances savored too much Of the
Greeks bearing gifts.
Miss Kerr and I have just been
speaking of you"

SPRAYING SAN JOSE SCALE
Peach Growers Seem Inclined to Favor
Lme-Sulphur, While Apple Or
chardists Use Oils.

We are now having favorable time,
to spray for the destruction of San,
Jose scale. Either lime or sulphur, or
soluble oil may be used with success,t
but the important point Is to use
something. Both remedies have their
advocates, depending somewhat upon
the kind II fruit and the local condi-0
tons. Peach growers seem inclined to
favor the lime and sulphur, while the
apple orchardists, particularly an old
trees, give the preference to soluble
oils. What is better than either is to
use both alternately, say the oil in
December, and the lime and sulphur
in the spring before the buds start,
says a writer in an exchange. Caution
should be used that the spraying Is
not done when near freezing, as the
effectiveness will be impaired IL the
mixture freezes before the water eVap-
crates.
Whenever there is much breeze stir
ring the consequent evaporation will
lower the temperature Of the spray
after striking the tree; also the north
side of trees will naturally be colder
than the south side. For these rea,
sons 1t Is hardly safe to attempt the
work when the thermometer regist-
ers below 40 degree F. Do thorough
work, being sure that every limb is
covered. Keep up good pressure on
the pump, and be sure that your mix
ture is properly made up according
to the manufacturers directions The
scale Ia now so thoroughly distributed
over the state that we must spray or
our trees will soon be gone.

CHAPTER xIl.-Continued.

The boss' further opinion concern
Ing settlement work was not voiced
because, while Kerr was talking, Judge
Gilbert had telephoned Williams to
usher Mrs. Hayes and Miss Kerr into
the library.
Followed by the other men, Gilbert
advanced TO meet them, and after the
usual greetings had been exchanged,
offered them chairs.

Hayes. I'VE did not expect to find
you so busy To tell the truth, we
didn't expect to find two persons
here whom we have already visited. >
She looked at Kerr and her husband.

with a humorous grimace which pre-
tended to show that the donation was
not so cheerfully parted with.

Judge Gilbert lightly. Then you must

Gloria was not to be diverted from
what she had TO say. These men to
WHOM she was talking represented to
her what was best in Belmont, what
was best in manhood. She wished
them To see the truth as she saw it.
1T isn't that kind of stealing" she
went on. ITS worse than that. Till
