Arrangement of Nests.

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
thave had 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 set
at exactly the same temperature, and
an occasional change averages up the
Temperature for all the settings OF
ieggs.
No hen should be allowed to set, un.
less she is free from lice. The mac.
Ition of the bird is conducive to rapid
multiplication of any lice there may be
on her. These will make her irri.
table and a poor setter. In addition,
should she bring offsa hatch in such a
condition, the chicks will be open to
infection. Dust the hen we'll with
! flowers Of sulphur or some other in
sect powder before setting, and again
a day or two before the hatch fin.
iishcs.
j About the seventh day the eggs
should be tested, the infertile ones re-
moved, and the balance put back in
ithe nests. After testing 1t is usually
found that the eggs from four hens
can be put under three. This leaves
zone hen with no eggs. and a new set.
ting can be put under her.
When the chicks arrive two or three
Satches can be put with one men,
(which leaves more hens at liberty to
isit, or If there is no more Matching
ito be done they can be put back in the
laying pens.

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 12 inches square and six
inches deep. Professor Graham Of the
Ontario Agricultural college recon.
Rends 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 set chilled.
Next put on about two inches OF
straw or chaff: and then put few
rearthenware 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 dust bath
should also be convenient. II the
hen Is setting quietly the next day it
viii 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
iused 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 four inch strip
to keep in the litter. To this is hinged
IA Slated door, which, when opened
forms a platform in front Of the nest.

An Advertising Story.

At a recent gathering Of advertising
men in New York this story was told:
A man entered store one bitter colo
day and bought woolen muffier
When he opened the muffier he found
inside it the photograph of beautt
full girl. together with a note saying:
IF you are single, please" write tc
me-"
A name and address followed, ant
the man smiled. He was single, and
he put the photograph on his sitting
room mantel. There, every evening
looking up from his book, he beheld
it. 1t was very beautiful and in q
week he had fallen head over heels
in love. So. he wrote to the girl.
Another week passed, week Of
anxious nerve-racking suspense. TheI
the lovesick man received this crush
ing letter: "Sir:-The Mary Smith
to whom you wrote was my grand
mother She died nine years ago
aged eighty-six. Yours truly, -
Our heart-broken bachelor, on look
ing into this strange matter, found
that he had foolishly bought the muf
fer from a dealer who didn't adver
tise.

GOING TONIGHT!

Tonight the annual Summer School
Carnival will be held in Rothwell
Gymnasium. 1t probably will be the
last big get-together meeting OF the
Summer School. 1t is Friday night
and everyone can afford to stop for
a time and go out for some real fun.
The stunt belongs to the entire
school, not to any one department or
division. The proceeds will go to
pay the expenses of the Summer
School Baseball League. Such forms
of athletics help the interest OF the
Summer School and make it more
like the regular session.
And if this happens to be Your last
summer here-well you will enjoy
the carnival all the more.

When you first get here You will be
called Freshman" But after ALL
the first year at college is the best.
You will say the same after you have

the making of friends most pleasant
and the victories of the Tigers-of
course you know who the Tigers are
seem brightest.
There's a great deal of work here
but there is also plenty of fun. To-
day a college education is one of the
greatest assets of young man or
woman. By the time you are gradu-
ated it will be still greater. The
pleasures which come with the work
required to get the education will be
all the more appreciated.
In a word. We are glad to know
You are coming. If there is anything
you would like to know before you
come. We shall gladly answer your
letter.

The Lady and the Pirate.

"The Lady and the Pirate" isn't ex-
actly what one expects of Emerson
Hough. But if his latest novel was
designed for the hammock days, he
couldn't have done better. 1t has
plenty of action of the unique kind
that keeps the reader absorbed to
such an extent that he forgets the
temperature, in case he reads the vol
ume in a warm cline.
The hero, wonderful in his accom-
plishments, takes the extraordinary
means of turning pirate to win the
girl he loves. The reader wondering

AFTER SUMNER SCHOOL, WHAT!

Teachers and students who have
been in school all summer need a
rest and vacation before they start
to work in the fall. If the student is
to get the best results in school this
fall he must be fresh when the reg
ular school opens: if the teacher is
to give his best to the pupils. he, too,
must be rested.
All vacations are not expensive.
No one need give the excuse that he
has not the money. A trip out on
the farm, plenty of good fried
chicken and other things to eat will
furnish the best of vacations. And
almost everyone has some relative
or friend on the farm who would be
glad to see him.
Or just a good visit at home with
mother, father, brother and sister
it's an ideal vacation. They will en-
JOY it as much as you. You have the
rest coming. Are you going to
take it?

Yes, it is a we'll presented, lively
piece of summer fiction; it ends we'll,

things, read THE Lady and the Pi-
