beefastewla region: In this queer
territory there is a volcano, the only
one Of it's kind in the world, including
Wisconsin. 1t is boiling water vol

which falls all over the bushes. The
natives all gather around at the base
of the volcano and have an afternoon
tea party that lasts for many moons.

Ry FL A. BITTENBENDER, Il wa Ex-
pertinent Station.)
Vitality-that's the thing to seek in
selecting individuals for the poultry
breeding flock, because lack Of it in
the parent stock is one Of the great
causes of loss in poultry raising.
Marks Of strong vitality: A head
that is short, broad, deep, compact.
An eye that is bright, full, clear,
round, prominent. A beak that is
short, broad, well curved. Comb and
wattles that are well developed and
fiery red. A body that is well jointed,
compact, stout; back, long and broad !;
breast, deep, broad, thickly feshed,
with a keel running well back; ca
pacity, large, especially in a hen which
needs room to develop digestive and
reproductive system capable of manu-
featuring many eggs. A strong bird
generally stands with shanks squarely
under its body and wide apart at the
knee joints. Its toe nails are usually
worn broad and fiat across the point
evidencing great activity.
The marks of low vitality are the
opposite of those of strength The
head is long, fiat, sunken, narrow; the
eye is small and dull; the comb and
wattles poorly developed or pale. The
body is often loosely jointed, with
knee joints close together; the breast
is narrow, shallow and poorly feshed
Long, pointed toe nails indicate less
activity.
