CLEAN UP DAY
PROCLAMATION

Most of the American people can
make things and do things on gigan-
tic scale, few people have enthusiasm
for taking care of things. Eliminate
waste and the problem of the high cost
of living is solved, eliminate waste and
the longevity Of the people is length
ened.
The annual loss of property and life
by fire in Michigan is appalling. This
loss arises very largely from careless
ness, kind of careiessness that is
criminal.
All winter long, in our villages and
cities and sometimes on the farm, rub
bish accumulates in out buildings, in
alleys and by the road side, in store
rooms and in attics, furnishing fire
traps for the dry season. Further
more, the accumulation of rubbish,
especially of vegetable origin, is a
breeding center for disease producing
bacteria. Cleanliness is absolutely es-
sential to health. Cleanliness is kind
of patriotism that needs all possible en-
enlargement.
+ /, Woodbridge N. Ferris, Governor
of Michigan, do hereby designate Fri
day, the 18th day of May, 1914, as
"Clean UP Day." l heartily recon-
mend all officials, mayors, fire mar
shalls, health officers, etc.. to use all
possible diligence in awakening all of
the people under their jurisdiction to a
realization of the Importance of putting
their premises in order against the day
of needless fires and epidemics. Off
Gals should not only urge the impor-
tqnce of this work, but enforce impair
TALLY the laws of the state to this end.
|, Furthermore, urge that the schools
of Michigan, both public and private,
recognize this day through fire drill
exercises, and discussions of the best
methods of preserving property and
life. All civic organizations should
share in this work of conserving life
and property, The press with its
mighty enginery for good, will, without
urging, do all in its power to make this
day beacon light for all the other days
of the year.
In Witness Whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused to be affixed
the Great Seal of State, at the Capitol,
in the city of Lansing this Doth day of
April, A. d., 1914. Signed,
WOODBRIDGE N. FERRIS,
Governor.

HENS VS.. INCUBATOR

"The hen is having the cackle at the
expense of the poultry raiser and the
incubator of these days." remarked an
observing poultry man.
"When the mechanical incubator
came the cry went up Hens for laying,
incubators for incubating. Why waste
the time of valuable hen for weeks
keeping small number of eggs warm
when it can be done more efficiently
and on a much larger scale by wood
en- box with lamp inside it?"
"Of course, every hen with the
sense of chicken quit setting, or set
ing. She saw that her days as setting
hen were about to be numbered and
she preferred to do the counting her.
self. She quit instanter. The result is
that we have now race of hens that
fatty refuse to sit. They are entirely
willing to lay lhe eggs and when that is
done they quit as promptly as the man
working on union schedule. They
leave the Matching of the eggs to any
old wooden or iron contraption that
man cares to invent.
"And now it is found extremely
awkward to have hens that will sit.
There are some jobs of incubating that
can best be done by hen. Suppose a
poultry raiser has setting of fancy
eggs for which he paid 81 apiece. He
does not wish to put them into an in
cubator with 200 other eggs. There
would never be any way in the world
to distinguish the chick costing 20 cents
4 dozen. There is no other way to in
,ubate those chicks but to put them
under sitting, or setting hen. And
here are no sitting or setting hens.
The hens are standing pat on that.
"The demand for good sitting or set
ing hens can be heard from every
Some have tried to borrow
hem, some have offered fabulous
prices for them. But the hens do not
show the slightest disposition to re-
sumo the drudgery of brooding over a
patch of eggs thru hot and cold, rain or
shine, hungry and thirsty, and after
he chicks are Matched out to be bur-
1ened for weeks with lot Of family
troubles which would drive chick to
drink"
II is explained that the disappear
ance of the sitting hen is due to breed
ng and not to notions of equal rights
which the hens have imbibed. Poultry
-aisers have been breeding for hens
hat will lay and not for hens that will
sit, and the result is that the sitting
hen has been eliminated. The matter
Of breeding has been simply overdone.
For general poultry raising purposes
he artificial incubator is better than
he natural one, but there are circum.
stances in which it is very desirable

mother.
