BOTTLE DEFICIT IS SERIOUS PROBLEM
French GlasswOrks Held by Germans Causes Huge
 Shortage

Paris, January. .--CCorrespondence of the Associated Press)-The bottle deficit of France to date is about 2S5.OOO,OOO, re- sulting from the occupation of territory comprising some of the important glass works of the department of the North and the department of the Marne. The wine and other French industries require about 310,OOO,OOO bottles each year, and the French glass works produce normally about s25,0o0, 900, of which between 10000 : OO0 and 100000 are exported. The glass works now in operation produce only about 9O,O00,ooO bottles a year. The con- sequence is, mineral water bottles that were purchased before the war at l cent each now bring a little over cents. Lamp ehimneys have trebled in price as we'll as goblets and window glass. Wine bottles containing about a quart have gone up from $4 to $7 per hundred, while in the Saumur district bottles intended for naturally sparkling wine brought S9 per hundred
 ''The reason for the bottle crisis" says M Sauvageot, general secretary of the Glassrnakers association, Ifs not entirely the occupation of part of our glass pro- ducing territory by the enemy. Our in dustries in departments that were not invaded are also seriously affected by the inroads made upon their workmen by the mobilization. It is very difficult to re- place these men and the mobilization of one skilled glass blower put a furnace out of business.
 American workmen and labor from Bra gil and Spain were imported by bottle makers in the Cognac district, while Arabs and KabyIes were brought from Algeria by glassmakers in the depart ment of the Allier These measures in- creased largely the wage scale without entirely remedyfng the difficulty. Women have helped out some in certain districts, and in time the gIassmakers would be able to bring their production up to the normal, were it not for the further com plication of deficit of material. Glass sand has doubled in price, as well as find. Before the war we bought 1t at SIG per hundredweight, today we pay $9( when we can find it. Add to this the doubling of the cost of our coal and you have the clements that explain the trou- bles of the glass industry This glass crisis would have been all the more serious had not the consumption of wine, brandy and mineral water bot ties declined 50 per cent.
 The measures taken against the sale of alcohol have also resulted in a diminu- on of 50 per cent in the consumption of bottles used in that line.

shows of America. and the breed has also found great favor in England.
 Size and type have made them lead CTS for market poultry. In this respect they are only rivaled by the White Wyandottes and the Rhode Island Reds. These are the three most widely bred of the American breeds, and ey- eryone is a profit payer.
 Plymouth Rock should be the sane as those demanded for all other varieties of the breed. but their advancement in this direction has been most success ful and they are generally accepted as possessing more ideal type than any of their sister varieties. In color they should be pure white the surface color, the duills and the under color abso- lutely white Ther eyes red; legs, feet and beak rich golden yellow In this az in other clean-legged varieties, the shanks and feet should be smooth ana free from any feathers or down.

About 25 years ago grayish-white fowls were matched and reared from eggs of Barred Plymouth Rocks. These were aIbinos or sports" and several breeders undertook to develop a White Plymouth Rock from them. Their ef- forts were successful and the fowl be- came popular, not only with small breeders, but also for stocking large poultry farms, where heavy, large, white fowls were desirable.
 White Plymouth Rock females are exceptionally good layers of large, brown eggs, the chicks are rugged and active, and make amazing develop ment. For this reason White Plymouth Rocks are especially desirable for broilers When full grown these fowls weigh eight to ten pounds for males and sight to eight pounds for females making them desirable for the home flock or for the extensive poultry farm Large classes of White Plymouth Rocks are exhibited at all the poultry

SUCCESSFUL VENTILATION


 The subject of airing the eggs is one
 of the most important in artificial incu-
 bation. The best results are obtained by
 sparing use of airing during the first IA days, followed by plenty of airing un- til the chicks are matched. Eggs should be turned three times day during the
 last week, with 20 or 30 minutes of air ing each time. The value of oxygen for the developing embryo becomes more im- portant as the matching time approaches. The effect of too much oxygen during the early stages of incubation is to dis rupt the blood vessels in the membra- nous covering which lies close to the shell. In testing eggs from the seventh to the tenth day an irregular ring of blood may sometimes be seen in the place of the web-like formation of a strong living embryo. The blood ring is the effect of too much free air on the Blood vessels which caused their rup- ture and the death of the developing germ.
 The membrane close to the shell is lined with numerous blood vessels. After the fourteenth day the blood requires more oxygen, for the blood of the developing embryo is purified in this membranous covering. This is called the allantois or respiratory sac. As matter of fact, the lungs of a chick are not brought into use for respiratory purposes until few hours before the chick is matched. When these conditions are carried out with care, the operator may expect a 90 or 95 per cent hatch of good. strong chicks. If one can hatch 92 from 107 eggs and 97 out of 110 eggs in a single season.

..A MAN,s HEARTH.

By Eleanor M Ingram. Illustrated. J.
 B. Ldppincott Co.,. publishers, Phil
 adelphia.
 You will not find fresher, more vigorous story this season than Elea- nor M. Ingram's entitled "A Mans Hearth" A man suddenly finds that the wife of his best friend is in love with him. She is planning to divorce her husband and to force the hero into marriage by making him her CO., respondent. He is a young New York millionaire at odds with his family. and realizes that he is on the verge of personal calamity. What does he do? 3ou would never guess. He also is puzzled until an optimistic girl, a nurse maid, shows him the way out of all his difficulties-a hearthstone of his own-and he goes to work in dead earnest. This is the start of a story that has as many fascinating side is- sues as the keenest appetite could de- sire and the ending brings an inspira ton that lasts.
