BRITISH NOTE is
VERY HIGHLY PRAISED

London. April 26-The British note
in reply to the representations to the
United States against interference
with neutral maritime trade by the
allies, is published fully in most Of
the morning papers, which gives
high praise to the views expressed
by the British government.
The Post says editorially:
"The reply is especially notable in
that the doctrine of ultimate destin.
alton is plainly affirmed on behalf Of
the allies. Sir Edward Grey's attitude
toward the American government is
perfectly correct"
The Daily News remarks:
"The value OF the reply lies in
the extreme adroitness wherewith it
restores the true perspective to the
issues between Great Britain and the
United States.

Early HaIching
Is The Best
BY II. L. kempster Of the Missouri
Agricultural College

There is practically everything. to
De gained and nothing to be lost by
setting hens as soon as possible
The chicks will thrive much better
turing the cooler weather and the
hen should be spared from setting
during warmer weather. The first
young chickens marketed always
bring the best prices and the early
Matched pullets will mature early
enough to lay next fall which is not
true Of the later ones. Winter ones
depend partly on early Matching.
Select a healthy hen and try her
for a day or two on the nest before
risking valuable eggs under her. An
odd number of eggs--usually eleven,
thirteen, or fifteen-should be used,
particularly in cool weather as they
lie in a more nearly perfect circle.
As soon as the hen becomes broody
make nest for her in u separate
Matching room or a place where the
other hens will not have a chance to
disturb her. The nests should be
sixteen or eighteen inches square and
at least eight inches deep depending
somewhat upon the size of the hen,
but 1t must be roomy. In nature IT
would be placed on the ground and
IL this is not possible in the poultry
house a large sod should he placed
in the bottom Of the nest and then
covered with straw to help keep the
eggs from drying out too rapidly.
Either allow the hen to leave the
nest for food and water whenever she
wishes or remove her once a day for
that purpose.
Lice should be controlled by dust
ing the hen with insect powder at the
beginning and again ten days later.
1t is a good plan to rub bit of blue
ointment about the size of a pea into
the skin beneath the vent and to rub
a little more into the feathers on
the under side Of the wing at hatch
ing time. This partly rubbed off on
the chicks and helps keep the lice
away.
Remove the chicks as rapidly as
Matched and later return them all
together to the men for breeding,
but be careful that they are not chill
ed while away from the mother.
