after the hatching-from the time the
chicks leave the shelter of the incu-
bator until they are ten days old; in
fact. until they are waaned from the
stances. The poultryman is likely to
regard life as a very serious PROPOSE
ton during this period. If things do
not break right, no phase of poultry
raising is likely to prove so distressing
and troublesome as the rearing of
work can be accomplished without
serious mishap, it is a truly delightful,
interesting task.
Chicks require warmth. sunshine.
fresh air. exercise and stimulating
food. With the exception of the latter
all of these essentials are obtained by
the brooder Yes, even exercise is gov
erned by the conditions found in the
brooder. without which leg weakness
and countless other troubles result.
Methods Of Chick Raising.
There are many kinds of brooding
apparatus and wide variety of brood
er houses; lack of space forbids a de-
tailed description of them. In the
main they are divided into three gen.
eral classes: Cd the small outdoor
brooder. ofGbout 5o-chick capacity, CO
the long brooder house with narrow
pens and yards heated by overhead
hot-water pipes or individual lamps,
t3) the colony brooder of 500 to $500
chick capacity. heated by liquid fuel
burning or coal burning hot air stoves.
In the small outdoor brooder we find
the great trouble lies in taking care of
so many units, scattered over a large
area. especially in stormy w\,athdr.

The long brooder house Is the easiest
way to care for little chicks. All the
work is done on the inside. storms
hold no dread for the caretakcr the
temperature is more uniform and ~
has Il big reserve heat. But, because
the chicks are necessarily yarded so
closely together, and because st,ch
large numbers are reared on the same
ground year after year. it is difficult
to safeguard the flocks against disease.
Moreover. this sort of q broodcr house
is the most expensive building on the
farm, and because it cannot be used
for other purposes it must lie idl, for
six months of each year Hot water

Virtues Of the Breeder Stove.

Thus, there Mas demand for
brooding device which would perform
its work on large scale at the least
possible cost for buildings, for fuel.
for operating costs, and so on. The
brooder stove was the outcome of this
demand. 1t didr't just happen; it
evolved. The large stoves, those hav-
ing a capacity of 500 chicks or more.
and using coal for fuel, have come
into general use in the east in the past
four years, whereas in the poultry
growing districts of California oil
burning stoves of this character have
been used for some time.

would have been severely questioned.

today. but it has proven entirely prac-

Why the Stove Is So Effective.


In many of the earlier brooding ap-
planes there were, generally speak
ing, two distinct temperatures and no
graduation of heat: the interior tenn

stuffy and hot and the outside air
which is very apt to be too cold. Either
of these the chick had to accept, and
both were weakening--to be chilled or
partly suffocated.

deal of heat, which, by means of Il
widespread sheet iron deflcctor is dis
tributed downward over the backs of
the chicks, where ii is most needed.
When taken from the incubator direct
to the brouder. the chicks instinctively
learn to form a circle around the stove
with a precision that is remarkable.

expert Poultryman and Writer)
1t has been conclusively proven that
If chicken are to be raised in large
numbers on a really profitable basis.
they must be Matched artificially. If
incubated artificially then they must
be brooded by artificial heat; for a
chick requires a temperature of from
80 to 100 degrees for the first month
or six weeks of its life. The success
of a poultry plant depends upon these
two processes, more especially brood
ing. Most of the difficulties are due
to improper brooding facilities-ether
defective brooding apparatus or the
brooder house is to blame. This article
