be overturned. We thought II q very
clever idea at the time, but found out
too late that We had made n mistake.
Being SO near the pipes, the heat
caused the thermometer to register
several degrees too high. That is. II
was several degrees higher than the
temperature down where the eggs
were. Only one chick Matched, and II
died. The eggs were broken and ex.
amined. We found that they contained
chicks In nearly all stages of develop
ment. This taught US n lesson that
has never been forgotten, and that
was not our last by any means. In

the trouble Is. we try TO find the cause
and remove IL.
A neighbor of ours lost nearly n hun.
dred young chicks last year because
OF ignorance or carelessness-probably
n little OF both. The chicks were not
properly cared for and they became
very lousy. They had been Matched
with hens, but were placed In a small
brooder. inclosed in a small yard
where lot a spear of grass could grow.
In spite OF the fact that there was no
lack OF grass on the place. and also
plenty OF shade. not a BIZ OF either was
provided for the chicks.
They would probably all have died
sooner or later, anyway. but as stated
above they got very lousey and the
owner made n short job CT II by apply.
ing lard, This did the work-it killed
all the chicks inside OF an hour or two.
and It is not at all likely hat any lice
escaped.
Now II was not the lard alone that
did all this mischief. although IL had
been applied too freely. This hap.
pened to be when the thermometer
registered 90 degrees in the shade.
the chicks had no shade except the
brooder, which was about as good as
none; TO make matters worse. the own.

to render aid. This reminds the writer
of a similar experience that proved
only a little less disastrous TO the
chicks. We had n fine lot OF brown
Leghorn chicks, nicely feathered out

They were kept In a house never be-

aware of the fact that they were

had been busting the chicks with

however. and plenty OF shade. Only n

kind of animal grease on young fowls
since. Kerosene Is worse. II some

raise the short feathers on the outside
of the wing, there may be some lice

Don't be deceived. When a chick or

vaudeville theatres that there is not at
least one dancing number on the pro
gram that includes an exhibition of the
tango. 1t is an even safer assertion
to say that there is not one restaurant
in the thousands in the greater city
where cabaret it maintained, that
the tango is not danced. Eperts poe
try the tango on the platforms and the
guests tango in the spaces between the
tables.
Broad minded people say that the
goodness and badness of the tango is a
matter of opinion and of the personal
equation. All that dips is not the tan
go, say the experts. There is tango and
tango. The dance, they say, may be
done gracefully and beautifully, so that
the most prurient cannot object, while
there are varieties of dips, leaps and
hugs, unjustly called the tango, that
are undeniably shocking. Some persons
with a smattering of Latin think that
tango comes from the Latin verb mean
ing "to touch" and evidently that is
why they like it. But the tango of
polite bathrooms is not of Latin ex.
tradition. Latin-Ameriean perhaps, but
in no wise dead. Such well known wo
men as Miss Anne Morgan and Mrs
James Loes Laidlaw, social leaders,
have come to the rescue of the maligned
dance. They say that the tango, as
done in their set, is as modest as u
waltz, and those who see evil in it have
themselves to blame. Taking it by and
large, being neither for or against the
much discussed South American dance,
it may be said without qualification
that the tango is in great danger of
decadence when both church and state,
the prelates and the royalties who are
social arbiters, turn against it.
