Late Chicks Fed Cheaper.

1t is agreed that to obtain highest
prices for broilers and roasters and also
to raise pullets that will lay early,
chicks must be Matched before this time
There are. however. many things in
favor of late May and June chicks
Chicks Matched late are surrounded from
birth with most favorable conditions
Cold nights are past or long way of.
and vegetation of all sorts is growing
and tender. Thus the fowls are furnished
a natural, succulent food which has egg
producing qualities to a great degree.
Whether or not the necessary green
and rich animal foods are supplied by
nature on ample range. is a big econo-
mic item. 1t must be given careful con-
sideration. for # favorable range condi-

Poultry Yard Notes.

SQUAD broilers are on the market in
Washington, these being chicks that
dress from three-quarters of a pound
to a pound in weight. These squa BIS
bring about 80 cents a pound in the
high priced markets. some even SELL
ing them as high as 60 cents a pound.
There is money in them at these prices,
especially in view of the fact that the
squads are marketed at eight to ten
weeks-no older.
Chicks intended to be sold as squa b
broilers should be Matched as early as
possible; those now being marketed
were probably Matched the latter part
of March. The heavy breeds. such as
barred or white Plymouth Rocks, Or
pingtons. Wyandottes and Rhode Is
land Reds, make the best squad broil-
ers, as the chicks make weight ra pidly,
while remaining soft and tender.
Chicks intended for squad broilers
must be forced from the time they are
Matched until they are marketed. Spe-
ciaI feeding and brooding methods must
be used in this branch of the poultry
chicks that are to be layers Or breed
ers will not do for the production OF
SQUAD broilers.
AS soon as the baby chicks are placed
in the brooders they must be fed lib

In selecting shrubs to be used as
borders consider their ultimate height
Many persons fail to do this. and in a
few years have to make changes. Do
not make the mistake of setting them
too close together, or they will not
look well in after years. Keeping the
flower garden in sufficient moisture is
of great Importance. Plants and shrubs
must have more than a surface water
ing If there has been no rain for a
week in the hot-weather season give
the whole garden a soaking to the
depth of about a foot. Don't repeat
it until II has dried out several inches.
Light wettings, no matter how fire.
quent, often ruin plants and shrubs.
Flower beds and borders should be
raised above the ground level, and
borders should slope from the back to
the front calling the point of view
the 'front.' If the subsoil is a heavy
clay or sandy and rocky. beds and
borders should be dug out about If
teen inches and filled with good soil.
If an early crop is desired it is i'm
portant to select Il sandy, quick acting
land. Soils of this character warm up
quickly and give quick returns from
manure. If such land is properly pro-
tected from the north and is southerly
exposed the situation will be ideal for
an early crop.

Essential Features Which Should

Experience has convinced the most OBJ
serving students of poultry culture that
artiticially reared chicks do not DO as
we'll in warm weather as those brooded
bv natural methods. Accepting the fact
commonly admitted by experienced poul-
try raisers that there is a double ad-
vantage in rearing chicks naturally dur
ing the warm summer months of June and
July, it means that the hen must be set
in May Healthy. hens that are set in
May or early June usually lay well dur
ing the late summer and early fall. At
this time eggs. though not quite as high
in price as little later. bring much more
than in the spring months.
From the standpoint of profit it is mani
testify no disadvantage. and in most cases
distinct advantage to allow the hen to
take natures way of recuperating after
a strenuous season of egg production.
There can be, then. but one other question
to consider, and that is the ACCESSIBILITY
of rearing late Matched chicks.

Removing Chicks From Mes

II the nest is on the ground, and this
is the best place for it. the litter may
be removed and the chicks allowed to
remain on the nest for about forty
eight hours after all are Matched, pro-
vided they can regain the nest at will.

Head Lice.

When hen-ratsed chicks are lost, such
losses are frequently due to lice. most
often to head lice. Every care should
be taken that these pests be eliminat-

clean. Dust the chicks with a harm
less insect powder before putting them
out In a week or SO grease the head

Washington, Nov. 12.-Still without
definite information concerning the
circumstances under which the Italian
liner Ancona was sunk, state depart
ment officials took no further steps to-
day in the situation.
1t is believed details probably will
reach here tomorrow.

Ancona was torpedoed without warn
ing or whether the shots were fired a.
the vessel after she had stopped. I'm
til definite information is available on
these points any representations to
Austria-Hungary will be withheld.
The impression in official quarters,
based upon press dispatches, is that
the vessel tried to escape, and that
those of her passengers who were lost
were drowned in the panic that ensued
wnen she was halted.
