HANDLING YOUNG CHICKS.

Chicks need no food from z to
days after Matching. They should be
kept warm. During the first week the
temperature should not fall below 95
degrees and the second week it should
be held up to 80 degrees. When they
crowd under the hover of the brooder
it is sign that they are cold. Fifty
chicks is enough for one brooder.
When too many are put together they
sometimes pile on top of each other
and some smother. When the chicks
are 48 to 60 hours old feed them equal
parts of bread crumbs and oat meal to
which add little chick grit: Feed
four or five times day and only what
they will eat up in few minutes.
After the third day feed good quail
ity of chick feed. Sprinkle it in the
litter which should be made up of a
thin layer Of short cut alfalfa or fine
cut straw. A home made chick feed
can be made as follows: Cracked
wheat rs pounds, fine screened crack
ed corn 20 pounds, pin-head oat meal

BATTLESH|P NORTH
DAKOTA NEEDS
NEW ENGINES
CAN BE PUT INTO COMMISSION
IF APPROPRIATION NOW ASK
ED FOR is GRANTED.

Some little agitation has resulted
from the fact that the battleship
North Dakota is out of commission.
Recently the executive board of the
North Dakota Federation of CONNER
cial Clubs sent set of resolutions to
our congressman and senator's asking
that an effort be made to have the
North Dakota again placed in COM
mission. Vice President Holbein of
the Federation received letter from
Congressman P. D. Norton the other
day that throws light upon the SUBJ
ject. 1t is in part as follows:
81 find that in talking with Captain
King, who was recently in charge of
the super-dreadnaugh North Dakota,
the Captain tells me that they have
been having a great deal of trouble
with the old style Corliss engines in
this ship ever since she was put into
con mission.
"FThe North Dakota is now on the
reserve list, but in case Of emergency,
could be called into service at once.
Captain King expressed the opinion
that if war was declared with any
country tomorrow, the North Dakota
would at once join the Atlantic fleet
and would be able to take part in any
naval warfare that might be neces-
sary.
"The intention of the Navy Depart
ment at the present time is to place
new engines in the North Dakota. An
appropriation of 100000 has been
asked for by the Secretary of the
Navy for this purpose. This appro-
priation of 100000 will be carried in
this years Naval Appropriation bill:
at will take, so Captain King tells
me about six months after the con-
tract has been let, to build the new
engines to be placed in the ship. Then
it will take about six months to install
the engines. The only time that the
shin will really be out of commission
is during the time of the installation
