Is old-fashioned red apple sauce,
served with whipped cream, remarks a
writer in Good Housekeeping. 1t is
rich, and of beautiful color, as much
unlike ordinary apple sauce as can be
imagined. Inquiry brought forth the
fact that it was baked in the beanpot,
sliced apples and sugar being put in
alternately, little water. added, and
the whole cooked at least eight hours
in slow oven or f1reless cooker. Pears
and peaches may be cooked in SINH.
lar way, only, instead of being sliced,
they should be pared, halved and the
seeds removed, and they should not be
stirred during the cooking. The vari.
Gus sun-dried fruits may also be baked
to good advantage. They should be
washed thoroughly, soaked overnight
in water to cover, the proper amount
of sugar added, together with any de-
sired favoring, and the baking done
very slowly, the time varying from
three to six hours, according to the
quantity. Figs need lemon juice and
rind and may be served half-cold from
the casserole with a decoration OF

HENS PRODUCING MOST EGGS
Comparison Made of Hen-Hatched
Chickens and ArtificiaIly Hatched
Incubator Is Favored.

Experiments conducted by the New
York State College of Agriculture, ex-
tending over period of three years,
disproved the theory that hen Matched
chickens are of higher vitality than
those Matched in incubators. The
first year the hen matched pullets laid
more eggs than the incubator Matched
ones. The second year the incubator
pullets succeeded, both in number and
in profits, as they, laid more reglarly
during the season when eggs were
high priced. During the third year
the balance was still more in favor
of the artifcially Matched hen. Also,
she was in better condition.
The chicks were Matched from eggs
of the same quality, and fed and
housed in the same manner. The ex-
pertinent will be continued for many
years, so that more accurate conclu-
sions can be arrived at. So far, the
chicks, Matched by incubator from
eggs laid by hens Matched from incu-
bators, have proved more steady and
valuable egg producers.

matured will naturally produce more
birds and stronger birds than eggs
from pullets who are still in state
of growth.
Sometimes it is true that pullet
eggs hatch out we'll, but they do not
produce birds with the vigor and
stamina that come from mature eggs.
And you will find that the chicks from
pullet eggs will be more subject to
disease and more will die.
If you have good breed and raise
your own eggs, separate the best hens
of your flock and select the best eggs
from these. Never set an egg from
hen that is puny, or that has had a
touch of disease at any time, or that
is any way deformed, no matter how
slightly.
If you use an incubator, you must
watch it day and night, and after you
have learned all that the manufacturer
tells you in the directions on the ma
chine, you must use your own COM
mon sense and comply with the vary
ing conditions of climate.
When the youngsters come out of
their shell they, too, must be watched
every day and be cared for in every
detail all the time. Young chickens
cannot be raised by any person who
is frequently away from home for long
intervals. One must be on the job
all the time,
The most important thing in start
ing young chicks is to refrain from
feeding them a single atom for at
least So hours. Nature has filled their
little stomachs before they left the
shell and if they are stuffed as soon
as they appear, many will die.
Give them plenty of water and af-
ter thirty-six hours feed them lightly
on fine rolled oats or coarse cornmeal.
Then. just as soon as they show
strength and vigor, let them run on
the tender, short grass for a little
while every day.
Watch for lice from the start, and
if any are found on the heads or under
the wings, touch the spots lightly with
lard or vaseline.
Having started right by following
the above directions, your success de-
ponds upon the fidelity with which you
manage the flock until they become
fledged or are ready to be sent to the
market.
