Turning the Eggs

Turning the eggs in the in
cubator is a small thing, but, ac-
cording to the observations of
some Of our poultrymen, it is a
very important matter. A poul-
try raiser who has closely watch
ed the hen turn her eggs asserts
that hen does not begin to turn
her eggs until the fifth day. She
continues the operation once or
twice a day till the eighteenth
day of incubation, when she
ceases this particular task. If
the eggs are turned after that it
is likely, the man asserts, to do
more harm than good.
After the eighteenth day the
chick is getting ready to cut it's
way out of the she'll, and to co
this must be right side up in the
shell. 1t attains this position
with a good deal of labor and if
someone turns the egg upside
down again the imprisoned chick
has the work to do all over again.
Often, the investigator says,
the chick is unable to turn over
again and begins to pick a hole
in the under side of the shell.
He gets a breath of air, and must
ever afterwards have air or
smother. The little hole picked,
being on the bottom, naturally
fills with liquid, the air is shut
off and the chick smothers.
If this is true, then it is i'm
portant that the eggs are per-
forated by the bill Of the chick
be kept right side up if they are
disturbed at all. The effects of
turning the eggs should certainly
be studied to find out just what
happens. Inter Ocean.

BURNS PRODUCE POISON.
a Deadly Toxic infection Is Set Up by
the Affected tissues.

For many years the deaths which
resulted from severe burns were at
1ributcd to shock. Such burns are
among the commoncst accidents
that bcfall workmen. and their
treatment has been Il grave problem
with the medical profession. Wo-
men and children. too, because Of
the himsy and inhammable charac-
ter Of their clothing, very often are
victims of such burns.
DR.. Pels- Leusden made some re-
searches upon the theory that these
burns produced other injurious eff
fects in addition to the shock to
the nervous system. His theory
was that the sudden destruction of
the skin generated violent poison
which was absorbed by the blood
and this played a leading part in
causing death. He made expert
ments in which he inserted portions
Of freshly burned skin into the flesh
Of animals where they could be rap
idly absorbed. These animals at
once presented the symptoms that
they would have shown if their own
skin had been burned.
This discovery seems likely to
revolutionize the surgical treatment
of burns. Instead Of merely apply
ing germicides and excluding the
air by soothing oils and powders, sur
geons now place the patient at once
under an anaesthetic and scrape
away all the burned tissue. The ex-
posed surface is then dressed with
absorbent cotton to take up the dis
charges, and the heart and kidneys
are stimulated to throw off what
ever poison has been absorbed be-
fore the operation could be per-
formed.-World's Work.

HARRY LARSON HAD A CLOSE
CALL YESTERDAY MORNING

Yesterday forenoon Harry Lar
son had a close call from receiv-
ing serious injuries by being
thrown from a high ladder in
front Of the Big Store. He was
removing some of the brick from
one of the piers and had the lad
der directly in front of the pier.
Upon the first brick being re-
moved, the others fell also and
carried him off the ladder and he
fell to the cement sidewalk, in
iuring one of his legs, but it is
thought no bones were broken.
The front tier of brick on the
pier had bulged out owing to the
weight of the upper story being
on the center tiers and the outer
brick bulged loose. 1t does not
weaken the building in the least,
but should the brick fall out when
a person is directly underneath,
it might result seriously, so Mr..
Scarce had decided to remove
the menace and Mr.. Larson was
engaged in doing this work when
the mlshap occurred.
