MATCHING AND BROoDING.
BY kathrine Anterior Grimes.

The boy with ten to twenty fowls
will probably do most of his Matching
with hens. But where the breed kept
is of some non-sitting variety, the in
cubator becomes almost a necessity,
especially if one wishes to get early
chicks-the only ones that pay well.
For a flock of this size, a 50-eggs
machine is plenty large enough. and,
as these may be had at quite small
cost, it is about as well to use one
of these, and let the hens go on sit
ting. The eggs they will lay while
it is doing their Matching for them will
soon pay for the machine.
If an incubator is not used, the best
plan is to get hold of some-two-year-
old hens, of one of the large, quiet
broods, and keep them just for cit
ting. If they are fed for eggs from
November on, they will be ready for
business by March. Even with a
machine, half a dozen hens of this
kind will prove a good investment, for
reasons which you will see a little
farther on. They may be disposed Of
as soon as their work is done, so one
need not be out much except their
feed to secure their services during
the Matching season.
Those who have had considerable ex-
perience with incubators tell us that
hen-hatched chicks are usually the
most vigorous. Even the best incuba-
tor is likely to turn out few weakly
or crippled chicks with each hatch
But the machine is far more likely
than the hen to behave well at the
critical time when the fluffy babies are
coming out of the shell, so, as the say
ing is, it is about six of one. and half
a dozen of the other"
A system that makes out to take
advantage of the good points and
avoid the worst drawbacks of both.
has been devised, and carried out with
good results. The plan is to put the
eggs under the hens for the first two
weeks, and then remove them to the
incubator, and let it finish up the

COMMERCIAL
Weekly Review of Trade and
Market Reports.
Dunn's Review says:

Dunn's Review says:
General trade is quiet for the time
being, many railroads and industrial
centers not having as yet fully re-
covered from the effects of the West
ern floods. Satisfactory progress,
however, is reached at many points.
The readjustment of the tariff, now
IN progress, produces more or less
hesitation in some trades, but in spite
of these two unfavorable factors, there
is no indication OF a permanent set
back in business"
Bradstreet's says:
Trade is irregular, ranging from
slow to active accordingly as points Of
primary or final distribution are con-
sidered For this, weather Irregular
ity, effects Of past or prospective over
flows and last, but not least, tariff
agitation are varyingly responsible.

REGARD PRISON AS HOTEL
English Veterans in Crime Find De-
gree of Comfort in Incarceration
in Their Declining Days.

Prison hotels, where habitual Grim
inals are housed, are being made so
comfortable in England nowadays that
offenders who have spent their lives
in criminal pursuits and have reached
the retiring age are now adopting the
custom of committing serious crimes
when they arrive at the age of sixty
or thereabouts in order that they
may pass their remaining years in the
peaceful precincts of the prison hotel
One of these institutions is now in
the course of building at Parkhurst,
Isle of Wight, and soon will be Oc-
cupied by some seventy or eighty
aged convicts, who have become priv

well as religious and other periodicals,

to loss Of teeth, minced meat and beef
tea are inc uded in the dietary.
The coalitions of these worn out

so satisfied are the greater number
that l am afraid many of them will

would not go to the union and he in

set at liberty on January l and was

they must be taken from the crate one

and then put Immediately into a

old they should be fed with hard boil
ed egg and dry bread crumbs, but care
must be taken not to give them sloppy
food or to overfeed at any time. they
must have plenty of fresh water and
their runways and breeders must be
kept clean and dry.
On the other hand, if one is in the
poultry business for keeps there is
good profit in selling baby chicks.
With two or three good incubators one
may hatch and sell several thousand
in season with much less labor than
to raise them to maturity, and with
good profit. There is but little risk in
shipping chicks. They have been

Meat-Resrinn Tree

In Mexico grows a tree called the
Avocado, whose pear-shaped fruit is
reputed to be composed of the sub
stances which are to be found in meat
1t contains about twenty per cent of
fat and many other ingredients of
great food value, and one good-sized

a meal for the average man.
The reason why the fruit is so little

1t is not absolutely necessary to
test the eggs, but it is best to do so.
l usually test eggs after the morning
of the eighteenth day. The chick is
full formed by this time; the eggs do
not need turning.
Do not open the egg chamber after
the chicks begin to pip the shell. This
rule is not invariable, but the only eX-
ception is to take out the chicks when
very good hatch is secured and
they crowd to the light in the door
Then open the door. roll the chicks
out into a basket and close the door
as soon as possible.
Don't try to help a chick out of the
shell. If it cannot get out without
help it is not worth saving.
Don't worry if the chicks gasp and
struggle for breath This is natures
way of opening up the lungs and Civ
ing the chickens strength.
Don't worry about the machine. If
the temperature the first week is be-
tween 101 and 103 degrees it is good
enough! only try to keep it about 1O3
1t will not hurt anything if the tenn
perature happens to run down 10 80
degrees some night.
Don't be alarmed if the tempera-
ture gets up to as high as 1O5 degrees
for an hour or so. Simply take the
eggs out and let them cool and change
the regulator little. If very good
hatch is coming off the temperature
will rise the last week.
In warm weather have often taken
the lamp away from the machine dur
ing the middle of the day. AT this
time the animal heat of the chicks
tends to increase the temperature and
104 degrees is common.
Be sure to get perfectly fresh eggs
from healthy hens. Use only the best
grade of oil. Fill and trim the lamp
in the afternoon rather than in the
morning and do this every day.
Do not trim the lamp wick with
scissors, but gently rub the charred
part off so as to give an even, broad
fame.
If these directions are followed a
good hatch may be anticipated. They
are based on an experience reaching
back to about 1884.

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
small lot without investing in an in
cubdtor 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 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 if amy should die during
transportation the seller will always
replace them free of cost.
The price of cay 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. and inferior
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 a reliable dealer than to
buy eggs for Matching as in buying
chicks you get 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 breeders must
