DUBLIN. November 6.--Among berc-

povertystricken communities is t!.at
the country is greatly Ovcrpopulatcd
where the land il rocky, bad and an
productive and much underpopulaicd
in the immediate neighborhood where
there are great tracts OF grazing land.
Tie board has power to buy land.
whether tenanted or untenantcd. and
to distribute ii in allotmcnts to the
people. They can acquire this land
compulsorily where necessary. and, un-
der these powers. have. after a long
fight. succeeded in cxpropriating .hc
Marquis of Clanricardc, whose estate.
near Loughrca, was for Il generation
one ,of the hottest of storm centers
in the land war. Within the past five
years they have bought go estates. of
l.GGo.7S3 acres. ut 4 total price of over
S30,000,00o. and there is Il great deal
more land that they might usefully buy
and rcscttle. by direction of the Treas
ury. in consequence of the war, these
purchases have now been suspended.
They may continue with what money
they have, but are restrained from any
further undertakings till the war is
over. and possibly for long afterward.
This interruption OF valuable and
vital work for the benefit of the poor
est part of the Irish people is much
regretted, but seems TO be regarded as
inevitable in the financial circumstances

I tain need of the American markets,
and, as it happens the markets in this

Which required rich, brown eggs, and
good yellow skinned, yellow legged
fowls Of reasonably heavy weights.
At the time it was popular TO cross
LeShorns. Malays, etc, on Cochin and

chicks which We're rapid growers and
reached early maturity. The combina-

heavy layers and the general color OF
the plumage was red. Brown Leg

commercial poultrymen.

some fanCiers became interested in the
bred and a few were exhibited al
poultry shows during the later SOS

delphia as Golden Bluffs. Some speci-

Best Results
From IncubatOrS

Incubators lack but one thing
intelligence. The poultryman must
supply that. Yet the best incuba-
tors, properly regulated and started
right, are more dependable than
most of the hens. An incubator is
always on the job.
Still there are things to be done
and others to be left undone. if
best results are sought. Proper
amount of heat and ventilation
must be given consideration. The
location of the incubator is a fac
tor, whether a cellar or living
room. Freedom from draughts is
to be assured. and a lot Of SEEM
ingly small matters must be looked
after-for the operator has to do
the thinking for the machine which
has dethroned the natural hatcher
the hen.
Next weeks article. by one of the
highest authorities in the country
on this subject, will be most in
teresting. Look for it next Satur-
day, appearing exclusively in the

germ may be deposited in the chick
at its birth. or it can be taken in
from the shell of an egg that is in
fected, or in the babyhood of the
chick it can be eaten with food or
drunk with water.
1t is very contagious, and single
case in a flock can be quickly com
municated to the entire family. Treat
ment is unsatisfactory; prevention,
land fighting the disease when it does
appear are about the only methods
that will do any good.
1t is recommended to give the chicks
scaIded sweet milk. to which is added
a little grated nutmeg. Repeat this
three or four times a day. Boiled rice
should also be fed. and powdered char
coal should be mixed in the mash.
Feed green food. Add permanganate
of potash solution to the drinking wa
ter. as advised above in cases of colds.
As a precaution, hens suffering
with bowel troubles should not be
used for breeding.
Dipping the eggs in a good disin-
fectant before placing them in the in
cubator, or under the hen, has done
great work in preventing this disease.

eggs in a coal tar product and believe

chase of baby chicks. The breeder,
his methods and the condition of his
stock are well worth investigating.
After the chicks are a week old
there is no danger of having the dis
ease transmitted to them through the
food supply. But up to this time the
chicks should be kept in small fiocks,
ranged that it is not possible to have
either contaminated by the droppings.
The bottom of the brooder should
be covered with a good amount of
fine, absorptive litter like alfalfa
meal, which will quickly cover and
seal up the loose droppings. The
brooder should not only be we'll dis
infected, but kept in clean condition.
