HATCH|NG EGGS IN
OLD FASHION WAY
TIMELY SUGGESTIONS IN sELEc.
TIoN OF EGGS, NESTING PLACES,
AND FEEDING CHICKS BY a
POULTRY SPECIALIST.

When Matching eggs with hens, 1t is
always desirable to select a quiet place
and make a nest Of clean hay or straw
In a shallow box or a barrel laid on its
side. 1t is preferable to have this nest
on the ground If there is no danger OF
Hoods during rainy weather Make
the nest big enough so the eggs can
not be rolled out easily. In deep nests
there is danger of breaking eggs when
the hen leaves or gets on the nest.
Select a quiet hen that has been
broody fog several days and place her
on nest with Il few Gull eggs or
nest eggs in it, and allow her to stay
on these eggs for two or three days
before giving her the eggs to be
hatChed
1t is especially advisable to make
sure that the hen Is free from lice,
Lousy hens stand on the eggs and pick
instead Of keeping the eggs warm If
the hen has lice dust her freely with
Persian insect powder or take a bit OF
blue ointment the size Of pea and
rub 1t on the skin under the vent
Both remedies can be bought at any
drug store, and are effective, Repeat
the treatment after nine or ten days
to kill the lice that hatch, Provide
feed and water where the hen can
leave the nest and get to them easily,
Cracked corn and wheat make good
feed
Selecting Eggs,
The eggs for Matching should be
carefully selected from freshly laid
eggs that have not been chilled When
hens are not laying many eggs 1t Is
advisable to put the eggs In dry
bran, small end down, leaving the up.
per end or air space uncovered, Place
the box In cool place that will not
drop below so degrees Fahrenheit, Se-
lect eggs OF uniform size, as they Will
not be broken as easily In the nest DO
not pick the largest eggs, Select the
average sizes, avoiding thin, thick or
irregular shells, Use nine to Is eggs,
depending on the size Of the hen,
Test the eggs about the tenth or
fourteenth day, This can be done by
holding them before o lamp Hight In u
dark room II an egg tester Is not avail
able Remove all clear eggs and such
dark eggs AZ show the contents TO be
fluid, as these eggs will decay and II
broken in the nest viii prevent other
eggs from Matching,
Remove Bad Eggs,
II Is advisable to remove all un.
hatchablc eggs, AZ It allows q better
chance for the fertile ones, When
Matching begins, generally on the
twenty'hrst day for hen eggs, If
the hen Is quiet, leave the chicks until
all are hatchcd unless the hen has q
tendency to leave the nest with the
first few hatched, 1t Is decidedly tho
best to give the chicks water, but with
hold feed for at least iS hours

poned the time when the sea should
close over her.
But in the book of fate the Mary
Nye was not destined to perish by wa
ter alone. Among her heterogeneous
coastwise cargo which had not been
unloaded, from the small hold back of
the main hold, were two sacks OF IN
slaked lime. After a time a trickle
of water found its way to these, and
they began to smoke.
The first person to be aware of the
smoke was Gunsdorf. 1t filtered into
the main hold before 1t found its way
to the deck. Gunsdorf at the moment,
with a kind of diabolical eagerness,
was trying to calculate the rapidity
with which the water was rising. This
was a difficult matter. owing to the
motion of the vessel.
When he smelied the smoke his
heart almost stopped beating, he was
frightened. Water and dynamite had
no terror for him, but death by fire
had always been his nightmaEe. He
was like man waking after great
drunkenness. during which. let us say,
he has committed some crime which
his frenzied brain at the time of it's
commission had seemed a reasonable
and even a meritorious thing to do.
but the memory of which makes the
same brain. the fumes OF alcohol gone,
a prey to the most awful terror and
remorse.
In short. the man had recovered
from his murderous and suicidal mad
ness. He was sane-a rational crea-
ture. who realized what he had done,
and that the deed was in vain, and
that he alone would be destroyed
by t.
What madness TO suppose that such

dirty little ship. Amidship was a
hold, formerly used as a container for
Goldfish; it still smelled of them. The
hatchway giving access to this hold
was open, and into it Gunsdorf de-
seconded. II seemed to him, after ex-
ploring the schooner from stern to
stem, to offer the best means of con-
cealment. The little cabin aft was
cleaner. 1t would be the choice of the
triumvirate for their own quarters.
Gunsdorf was half crazy with IA
tigue. In far corner of the hold
he found a pile of sacking and flung
himself down on them. But there was
something hard among them that hurt
him. He CROPPED for this, and found
that it was a powerful two-handed
augur, fixed with an inch and half
bit.
He pushed it to one side and in a
moment was sound asleep.
Barclay was restless; the cabin was
stuffy and verminous; he preferred the
deck and the open air. SO II hap
pened that in passing the main hatch,
in a lull of the wind. he heard sound
OF a man snoring. He had left Semmes
and Sturteyant complaining OF the dis
comforts of the cabin. Captain Nye
was at the wheel, the two men and
the boy forward.
Here thought Barclay, we've got
stowaway aboard. Some poor SON
of-a-gun of wharf rat, | suppose"
He strolled aft.
There's someone asleep in the
main hold" he said.

Well, let him snore."

rather than Missaquid, their point Of
departure. They would be to late
to catch the last boat for Bsrtell's.
Giddings, with Missaquid, formed the
base of a triangle. of which Gull Island
was the apex. Therefore, II they
could here charter some craft to CON
vey them to the island, there would
be a great saving of time.
The car ran half way through the
little town, turned a right angle and
descended to the wharves, and here,
in the darkness, stopped. Gunsdorf
was the first to alight. He slipped
into the shelter of a shed that
smelled OF fish and flung himself to the
ground.
Why didn't he shoot down the finsn-
ciers as they alighted from the car?
His hands were so cramped from grip
ping the tires he could not have held
or pointed a gun; they were shaking
like leaves of poplar trees in a wind.
He was in acute physical pain.
But, lying on the ground, writing
with exhaustion, he began to recover
little by little from the ordeal through
which he had passed, and he was able
to keep an eye on the car and on the
shadowy men whom he hated, and to
listen to what they had to say to each
other and to the fisherman whom they
routed from his bed, and who finally,
for a prodigious sum Of money, con-
scented to venture out in the easterly
storm that was brewing and carry
them and their luggage to Gull Is
land.
The name of his little schooner was
the Mary Nye. She was at the end
of the long wharf, half unloaded. No,
he had given up fishing. There was
more money in coasting. They could
start at once; he would have to get
his crew together-two men and boy.
Had they really come all the way
from New York? They must be hard
set. Better come to the house. He'd
rout the misses out of bed, and she'd
give them coffee.
Barclay gave some orders to his
driver. and much money; also he gave
much money 90 the other man on the
box, and he shook hands with them
both and thanked them for their devo-
ton to them, and told them that their
future would be his care.
Then the car went one way, and the
financiers and the fishermen went an
other, and presently Gunsdorf doubled
half over, like man crippled with
rheumatism, rose from his hiding
place, and hobbled off in a third.

long wharf near the end. She was

into the hold. struck a match. and had
look at the sleeper's face.
Then very softly he returned to the
deck, half closed the hatch. and,
thrusting his head through the open
ing that remained, he called loudly:

goodnight to you"
Gunsdorf's answer was to fire two
wild shots from his automatic. Bar
clay slammed the hatch to and sue
cceded in fastening It so that II could
not be opened from below.
Then he went once more to the cap
tain and talked to him for some time
In an undertone. After that he walked

Then tbr the first time Barclay saw
the agor1zed face of Gunsdorf. The
mans grip was falling, and he knew
It. At q little distance Captain Nye
fioated fsfe down. His two men came
to the surface, came together, clinched
and died, each trying to use the 9TH
err as ladder by which to climb out
OF the water.
Barclay looked for a while coldly
into Gunsdorf's face, and then looked
away.
For Gods sake help mel"
Barclays expression did not change.
He did not look at Gunsdorf.
For Christ's sake!"
Then the little boy, his teeth chae-
tering, said:
"'Tain't pretty to see men drown"
and began to blubber.
With an oath Barclay reached for
Gunsdorf and tried to draw him out
of the water. II was difficult and
precarious operation.
STEADY! Don't get rattled!" said
Barclay. you, boy, steady her as

And Barclay worked with all his
strength to save the wretched mans
life.
There was a strange look in Guns
DORIS face. It was no longer hatred.
There was hope in it; but, more than
that, there was something that was
akin to love. A miracle had been
wrought in the evil mans heart.

All this Tommy and Celestia
saw FROM the top of the cliffs. They
had recognized the two chief actors

Captain Nye motioned to his two
men. They seized Gunsdorf, and after
short struggle cast him back into
his prison and battened down the
hatch.
There's no room for him in the
small boat" said Captain Nye; and
there's no more mischief he can do
down below"
1t was only the fatigue of those who
were trying to save her that even
tually settled the fate of the Mary Nye.
Her captain called the party together.

themselves against the time of EN-
