HATCH BREEDERS WITH HENS
Best to Wait Until There Are Plenty
of Broody Old Fowls, as They
Make Excellent Mothers.

For Matching out the flock Of chicks
to be used as breeding stock, it is bet
ter to use hens. It is not necessary
to hatch the breeding stock early,
hence it is better to wait until there
are plenty of broody old hens, as they
make better mothers than the pullets
and for this purpose number Of the
best are kept over each year.
If we wish to hatch 100 chicks we
get II hens ready at once and put the
eggs under them all on the same day,
says writer in an exchange. On the
fifth day the eggs are tested, and all
infertile ones are removed. Perhaps
one or more of the hens are relieved
from duty. II we desire more chicks
these hens may be given other eggs
and the work kept going.
When the Matching commences the
hens are watched closely and as socn
as chick dries off it is removed from
the nest No hen is given more than
20 chicks to brood. As soon as that
number are hatched they are given to
one of the Quietest hens, she having
previously been fed and watered lib
orally.
The chicks are not allowed to have
anything for at least - hours. In this
way not all of the sitters are needed
for mothers and some are broken up
and returned to the laying pens.

Have a Garden.

Begin now to think of that little
garden in the back yard, everybody
who has back yard. Such modest
enterprise has much to do to restore
the harmony of life. If you don't get
radish, tomato bean or mess OF
peas, you will get something greater
pure air. sunshine, exercise and COM
panionship with nature, which are a
richer crop than all the truck in the
garden. 1t is great thing to watch
things grow. They make man
grow, too; add health and
strength to every part of his body;
give him clean conscience; make
him love his wife and enjoy her
yictuais Tending little garden
makes a good citizen out Of man;
gives him better thoughts; makes him
.k;ndlier to his neighbors, and gives a
gentler accent to his voice. And then,
If he should raise anything in the gar
den, how happy he is to gather it ana
take it into the kitchen and lay it on
the table, saying to his wife: These
are some of our own raising; amt
they fine?" That's life-grander than
going to church in an automobile

LOOK TO THE VACANT LOT
a Little Cleaning UP of the Space
Now Will Result in Profit in
the Future.

Owners of unimproved property in
this city who wish to sell it should
take heed of suggestion that comes
from Minneapolis, where the matter
has been under practical considera-
tion. This is that any lot of ground
offered for sale has better chance
of finding a market if it is kept in at
tractive order than if neglected and
allowed to present an unllempt, unat-
tractive appearance. Of course, as a
mere building site, it makes no diff
ference to a prospective purchaser
whether lot is neatly tufted or is a
veritable dump laden with trash.
Building operations are not deferred
by refuse. But there is something
psychological in the appeal of we'll
kept vacant lot that gives it a pulling
power over a trash-covered, weed
grown, unsightly place.
The cumulative effect Of well-tended
vacant properties reaching to stand
ard of orderliness throughout the city
is unmistakable. Every real estate
owner with property of this character
to sell is interested in attracting the
attention of buyers from outside. Such
BUYERS are more surely drawn to a
city that presents no unlovely aspects
than to one that is peppered with eye
sores.
The cost of keeping a vacant lot in
order is slight and it should be reck-
oned by the owner as part of the over
head charge, along with the interest.
It has been suggested that this cost
may be added to the price of the prop
erty when it is sold. However it is
borne, whether by the owner or the
ultimate purchaser, it is a good in
vestment. It makes for quicker sales
end meanwhile for more attractive
city, which in itself is an asset shared
by every owner Of property.
This is the season to consider this
question. Already the preparations
for park work are under way. The
ground in the public reservations is
being raked, trash is being hauled
away, and in a few weeks the city will
Ibe blossoming. Every owner of a va
cant lot should consider his bit Of
ground as part Of the city's park sys-
tenn and put it in order just as care
fully as the tree-grown spaces under
the care Of the government are
groomed for the season. The house
holders are expected to keep their
front parkings and lawns up to q
certain standard Of neatness, and sure
~ those who own land on which there
are no improvements should be under
the same obligation. - Washington

Value of Flower Shows.

Preparations are already under way
FOR flower shows, and it is pertinent
10 ask, What is the permanent value
TO those who attend?" Mere attrac-
fions will not permanently endure
with any considerable measure of sue
cess. They must educate as we'll. In
order to int est you must instruct.
All love best what they know most
about. The more one is instructed in
horticulture the greater will be his
appreciation of plants and flowers.
Every exhibit should be bureau of
information regarding fundamental
knowledge. Every attendant should
be mine Of information regarding
details. A feast for the eyes will not
ralune attract the best attendance, but
ID feast Of the mind as we'll surely
will.

YOUNG CHICK REQUIRES ASH
Lime and Phosphates Necessary for
Bone GroWth-Must Be Furnished
From Animal Sources.

A rapidly growing chick gains not
only in flesh, but makes bone at the
same rate and in order to make this
necessary bone growth, large amount
of ash is required in the form of lime
and phosphates. Some Of this is fur
nished from vegetable juices but it
must also be furnished from animal
and mineral sources. Shell and grit
are the two most common mineral
sources, while beef scrap and granu-
lated bone are the most common ami
nal sources. Beef scrap should not
be fed in excess, so bone is the most
reliable source from which to obtain
the bulk Of this animal requirement.

IMPORTANCE OF WORK TEAMS
Good Horses Permit Use of Improved
implements, Doing Better Work
and Making Profit.

Teams are very largely responsible
for successful farming. Good teams
permit the use of improved imple-
ments, implements that save labor, do
better work and in fact make profit. 1t
has been estimated by those who
should know that it takes nearly one
acre out Of every five in this country
to feed the teams used in farming.
This, If true, means that many are
using inefficient teams. Why not raise
colts and gradually dispose of the
boarders now being used as teams?

record that the hrst ono in the United
States took place In Charleston in 17Ss.
At this affair only English and Scotch
songs were on tho programme.
Despite this concert It can he said
that the songs OF Beethoven, Mozart
and Gluck were heard practically only
In the salons of rich patrons and oc-
casionally In general concert.
Tho birth Of the romantic movement
In Germany paved the way for the full
development Of tho song recital. Vogl.
the singer. fired with enthusiastic ad-
mirat!on for the lyrics OF Schubert, be-
san to sing them wherever he could get
the opportunity. But his performances
were not In the nature OF recital or
"lieder abend." He sang in miscella-
neous concerts. Sometimes a group OF
three or four songs figured in a con-
cert programme. but the genuine re-
cital wasta plant OF q later growth.
Indeed the song flourished rather In
tho salon than the concert room until
the middle of the nineteenth century,
when the song recital began to be pop
ular In Germany and Austria and after
ward In other countries. At the pres
ent time 1t seems likely to wear out
its own welcome.
II 1t were not for tho public delight
In prostrating itself before person.
ality the song recital could not domi-
nate the concert world as It does to-
day. Meanwhile II Is intercsting Ia
note that the most beautifu, basis OF
a continuous recital. to wit, the cycle,
has almost disappeared from pro-
grammes. No one sings the Mueller
lieder" the "Winterreise," tho "Dich-
terliebe." the "Schoene Magellone."
No one wishes to hear them People
do not desire to be forced to give close
attention to the song; they wish to
consider the singer and the glories OF
the voice. But let US repeat that art
claims inexorable Justice. for in the
long run It Is the great interpreter who
holds tho audiences throughout the
country. Tho twittering sparrows may
tickle the passing fancy. but the night
ingale wins the heart.
SO let the curtain rise. Let the
comedy begin. The play is a long one
and has many scenes. But the recital
scenes will outnumber all the others.
Two to-day against one concert; that
