gives the fOllOWlng ADVICE TO poultry
raisers:
CHICKENS ARE LATE.
despite the pleasant weather this
spring the poultry crop is going to
be late. Those who have depended
on hens for settlers have Matched very
few chicks; those so fortunate as to
use incubators have gotten out their
chicks in plenty of time to take ad
vantage of the pleasant weather. 1t
is not too late to SET hens. Bring
out as many chicks as you can before
the first Of June. The month Of June
is generally rainy and the nights are
cold. The variation Of the weather
from day until night is wide. One
will see the thermometer ranging
around 80 in the day and falling to
so before morning. 1t is nights like
this that cause great mortality among
little chicks. Add to this rainy
weather and one has fine conditions
to bring about colds and bowel trou.
BILE. Set all the hens you can SO
that they will hatch by May Goth and
then hold up and not hatch many un-
til you can have them come of
around the first of July. The month
of July, after the Fourth, is as a rule
dry. The chick that comes off this
late will not as rule mature as well
as those Matched in February and
March for the reason that they do not
get the care that the earlier birds re-
ceive. The ground over which they

HINTS ON INCUBATION

Here are some excellent hints on
incubation. reprinted from the Petalu-
ma Poultry Journal:
1t is impossible to describe the
methods of all those who have sue
cessfully Matched chicks at Petaluma.
The following is a symposium of the
experiences of number:
Eggs with shells thin on the ends
or in spots are discarded, as they sell
dom hatch.
Large eggs, though as likely to be
fertile as any give no larger chicks,
and these often stick to the shell,
getting bad start.
Handling eggs in the incubator
does them no harm. A sudden jar,
however, such as dropping them, if
only for short distance, often kills
the embryo chick, especially during
the first few days.
Oil on the fingers when the eggs are
being handled often does much harm.
When the eggs are replaced in the
incubator, after being turned and
cooled, the temperature is always
lower than 1t should be. However,
do not increase the size of the flame
in order to bring the temperature
back rapidly. It's adjustment should
be the same as previous to removing
the eggs, for the gradual return of
the heat is according to nature, and
always gives the best success.
Hens eggs are usually tested the
fifth and the tenth days. although
some test on the seventh and fifteenth
days with equally good success.
When the chicks are Matching, a
wollen cloth is often placed in the
bottom of the nursery trays for the
chicks to drop on out of the egg tray.
When such cloth is used it is kept
for this purpose alone, and is thor
oughIy washed after each Matching.
A temperature little too high has
been found to be less dangerous than
one little too low. The tempera-
ture, however. is kept as near lob as
possible. Very seldom do successful
hatchers allow it to go as high as los,
especially during the first few days.
Plenty of ventilation is required at
the time of Matching, and the ven
tilator holes on the incubatcrs are
never stopped up. When some fool
ishly do stop these holes the percent
age of hatch is always lower. Where
Kerosene lamps are used to furnish
the heat, the wicks are thrown away
when the Incubator is to be reset
after having stood for time.

It is alleged in connection with this matter that Mrs. Warren raised her hand against him."
 Testimony was introduced yester- day on behalf of the defendants that the Alexander girl and her friends had told the Warrens stories of the hard times endured by the Alexander family in residing on the homestead in Paradise valley. and that the girl had stated she would a lot rather work and give her money to her father than to go back out on the desert to live under such conditions again.

 IN THE FIELD
Members of the Party in Pinal County Believe That They Will Capture a Majority if Not All the Offices Next Fall

Progressives of Pinal county are confident that they will secure most if not all the county offices at the election next November. They base their prediction on the fact that they were led by the democrats by only about forty votes two years ago, when there was no division in the democratic party, when all the demo- crats were voting for a democratic candidate for president. Many demo- crats and a good many republicans of Pinal since then have allied themselves with the progressive party.
 The confidence of the progressives
 of Pinal is shown in the number of them who have already announced
 themselves as candidates for county and precinct offices. Among them
 are D. c. Stevens, incumbent. who is seeking the progressive nomina tion for clerk of the superior court and C. F.
