ARTIFICIAL BROODING
 OF CHICKENS

Washington Jan. 13.-The artificial
 method of broodfng chickens. accord ing to the U. s. Department of Az
 ricu1ture's specialist. consists in sup plying artihcda1ly as nearly as pos- sible the heat furnished by the hen under natural conditions. The tern- perature of 8 hen is about 1o6 de- sit closely on chickens the latter do not receive this degree Of heat. Hens adapt their methods of breeding to conditions such as temperature, size of the chickens, wet weather, etc. and the operator of brooder must meet these conditions as well as he
 can. This lack of ad3ustabiltty to changes is one of the weakest points in our present breeders and brocder systems Some of the most trnpor- tant faults in the management of breeders are overcrowding and lack to get sufficient exercise. The brooder should supply the proper temperature,4 be readily adapted to
 changes in weather conditions. and be easy to clean and well ventilated.
 Chickens are usually left in the matching. without feeding, before they are removed to the brooder, which should have been in operation for a day or two at the proper tenn perature for receiving the chickens. A beginner should try his breeding sys- tenn carefully before he uses 1t. Ar l ter placing the chickens in the brood CT they can be given feed and water. Subseouent loss in chickens is fre- quently due to chilling received while | taking them from the incubator to theb rooder. They should be moved 1 in a covered basket or receptacle in
 cool or cold weather.
 Eay.rN<1Sa<17.ss l Broo1tng Systems.
 There are a large number of how CTS, breeders, and breeding systems | used throughout the country, some l with success, although many are dis
 carded as failures, while each year brings some modification or change.
 One poultrynan uses a system sue-
 cessfully, while his neighbor may
 make a failure of-thei same system but does well with another. More
 difference of opinion exists as to the 1 value of breeding systems than in any
 other part of poultry rearing, which
 shows that no system is ideal for all conditions or all people, but that suc-
 cess depends largely. on individual handling and care. Many failures in
 breeding are due to weak chickens which may be traced to faulty incu-
 bation or weakness in the breeding
 stock. Successful rearing of chick ems depends primarily upon having
 healthy, vigorous breeding stock.
 Brooding systems may be classified l ity: Individual breeders or hovers
 holding from 25 to 100 chickens;
 coal, gasoline and engine or disti1- 1 late oi1-stove breeders, with ca
 pacity varying from 200 to 1,200 chicks; and hot-water pipe systems,

the capacity of which is unlimited
 The beginner, if possible. should thor Iough1y Investigate the breeding eQuip iplnentf used on successful poultry farms which have been in operation
 for some years.
 Individual Hovers and Brooders
 The small individual hovers and air or hot water, with Kerosene oil as the source of heat. Hovers are used entirely inside, either in brooder houses or in small colony houses, while breeders are made for both in door and outdoor use. Outdoor work very satisfactorily under most weather conditions. The capacity of breeders and hoyers is often over estimated. and one half to two-thirds of the number of chickens common. ly advised will do much better than a larger number. The danger from fire. due frequently to careIessness and lack of attention, is considerable in cheap brooders and hovers, while therep1s some risk in the best grades, although proper care will reduce this
 to minimum. Individual hovers in colony houses or several in one large
 house are given quite general satis- faction on small poultry farms, while the pipe system of breeding is com
 monly used in large commercial pou1- try plants and where extensive win ter breeding is done. When a lamp is used as the source Of heat care
 should be taken to keep the wick and burner properly cleaned, Brood CT lamps and stoves should be in spected several times day. Do not fill the broder lamp quite full of oil, as the heat from the lighted Vycil will
 expand the oil in the bowl and may cause it to overflow and catch fire. Gasoline brooders, brooder stoves burning engine distiIIate oil, and a separate individual hover heated by a. coal fire are coming into more gen
 eraI use, each with a capacity varying from 200 to 1,50O chickens. These. large individual breeders are used in colony houses, and when the. chick ems are Weaned the colony house is used as a growing coop, which re- quires a smaller investment than the long, piped brooder house, and allows
 one to rear the chicks on range to good advantag ge. Breeder stoves with a capacity of from 800 to 1,5o0 chick ems, heated by distillate oil are used quite extensively in some sections of the country. These stoves are usual lily seen in houses which are about I 8 feet square, but are occasionally found in long brooder houses. Most
 of them are equipped with a wafer regulator that controls the flow of oil which is fed automatically from a tank or barrel outside the house, or several stoves may be connected with the same supply tank. This system provides good ventilation, sufficient
 heat to keep the chickens from crowding that requires a minimum care.
 UntilE one had considerable exper4 fence it is best not to brood over 1000
 chickens in one flock. and a much
 smaller number would probably do better.
 Individual hovers with a capacity l.of from 200 to 1000 chickens have

 Hot-Water Pipe Brooders.
 This systemconsists of long brood CT houses heated with hot water. coal being used for fuel almost exclusively Many of the latest mammoth brood CTS are giving good success, and in these cases the labor of breeding a. large number of chickens is less than where small individual breeders or hovers are used. These brooders are suitable for large poultry farms or for farms where most of the chickens are raised during the winter and ear- 1y spring.
 Method of Heating.
 Breeders are heated either by overhead or bottom heat or by a combination of these two. methods. Too much bottom heat does not give good results, while either the over head or the combination methods are used successfully. Many pipe systems have hover or cover over a section of the pipes in each pen, while others are used without them, and each ap- pears to give good results with differ ent operators. A piece of wool felt or cotton flannel is often used for this purpose. Gas and electricity are also used for heating breeders and hovers with good success, and where available they supply one of the steadiest and most convenient sources of heat. A brooder built along the style of the oil brooder stoves with gas or electricity as the source of heat should prove very satisfactory. Heaters for the mammoth breeders or hot-water pipe systems are usual ly equipped with automatic regu1a- tors, which are operated either by ex- pansion of water or electric contact. Both types of regulators have given good satisfaction. A reliable regula tor is very essential to success with any of these system.

 Willie Ritchie, the American light weight champion, was reared in a section of San FraHcisco which has produced more prominent boxers than any other similar area on tF1e worlds map. The lighting bug is certainly some prevalent in that neighborhood, and every Kid there entertains pngilistice ambitions.
 Frankie Burns. the Jersey City ban 1 tam, has been responsikle for starting a Iot Of youngsters in that city in the 1,if training in a basement beneath a las qour store on Second street. and all the kids in the ghborhood got the boxing boe from watching Frankie perform. One of those kids was Joe Snugrue, who recently defeated Fred die Welsh, the lightweight champion Of the world. in a bout at Madison Square Garden. Joe probably would never have thought of taking up box ing except for the craze started in his neighborhood by the proximity of Frankie Burns.
 Many little villages have turned out many boxers, following the success of one native son in the ring. The lit tie town of Spring Valley, I1I., is an example. Billy Papke was started on his ring career in that village, and since then several other lads born in Spring Valley have entered the ring, among them Tom McMahon, the Pittsburgh Bearcat,'' and Goats Doig.

 Ask the average professi onaI boxer . why he adopted lighting as a profess sion, and he'll give you a wide va riety of answers, but they all simmer down to an ambition to achieve mon ey and fame And thep rz1nary inflH- ence is that he was personally Rc- squaiuted, or possibly relative, of kdsttc profession That's why you find so many brothers engaged in the
 practice of the manly art 2 and why. so many boxers hail from certain parts of greAt cities or from the same su1aH communities.
 Away back i'm the sEsegirmlSdag of the sgarue i'm England certain towns were safflicted with the boxing bug. with
