TO Determine LAYING FOWL
Pelvic Bones Are Spread Apart About
Diameter Of an Ego-Some Lay
ers Have Thin Bones.

When a hen is laying, the two pelvic
bones are spread apart about the d.
ameter Of an egg Q% inches) other
wise it would be impossible for the
eggs to pass from the hen without the
shell being crushed. AS such an ac-
cident would prove fatal to the layer,
nature precluded it's occurrence by ex-
panding or separating the pelvic bones
in correlation with the development Of
the eggs.
In the nonlayer, for illustration, the
distance between the. pelvic bones is
the width of one finger or less, and 1T
usually requires from four to six
weeks for this hen to graduate from
the "one-fnger" unproductive class TO
the 'three-finger' active layer. 1t Is
apparent that the expansion of the
bones is secondary to the development
of the eggs; hence, the more rapidly
the hen forms her eggs, the faster her
pelvic bones are adjusted to the lay.

A few layers have thin, flexible
bones apparently a desirable condi
tion) that do not expand so wide as
hens with firm bones, and care must be
exercised in judging whether such hens
are laying or not.-Clemson College

The prophet who circulated the re-

else each woman decided to act indie

HANDY EGG GAMBLERS
Some Sort of inexpensive Device
Should Be at Hand.
Simplest Kind OF Tester Is Made From
Piece Of Wrapping Paper, Rolled
to Form Tube-Fresh EGG
Has Pink Tinqe.

Eggs intended for private trade
should be tested or candled for quality.
With this In mind, some sort of in
expensive Gambling device should be
had. The simplest kind of tester is
made from a piece of wrapping paper
10 by "a inches, rolled to form tube
II inches long. TO inspect the egg the
tube is placed to the eye and then the
egg, with the large end uppermost is
so placed that the sunlight will strike
it. Many times dark room can be mad,
but not the sunlight. An ordinary shoe
box and bedroom lamp will be just
the thing. A hole is made in the top or
the box and one at the bottom for the
free circulation of air about the lamp.
In front of the lamp flame hole the
size OF q quarter is made. This Gambling
device is efficient and will, in most
cases, meet the needs on the farm.
When electric lighting service Is avail
able and great many eggs are to be
candled, a round cylinder eight inches
high and four inches in diameter,
with two holes in front and one small
one in the bottom, is attached to O
large CIV extending about Is inches
from the wall. The lamp cord is
dropped down the perpendicular pipe
to which the cylinder is attached. A
6O-candle-power lamp is used to give
the best results. With this device four
eggs may be handled at time by an
experienced GAMBLER.
A fresh egg has a pinkish tnge. AL
egg that has dark spot the size OF q
dime on the yolk shows that incuba
ton has taken place and the egg is nc
longer fit for food under ordinary cir
cumstances.

in such a nest and on this straw, hay,
hens should be busted thoroughly with
insect powder. 1t Is a good plan, also,
to sprinkle little of the powder in
the nests.
Using an Incubator.
The suggested schedule can be fol-
lowed exactly If an incubator is used.
The machine should be operated in a
warm room, preferably cellar, as
protection against outside temperai
ture changes. 1t should be disinfected
thoroughly before being used, with
solution of a reliable coal-tar disin-
fectant. Instead Of using such So
luton small receptacle containing
one-half ounce Of permanganate OF
potash on which one-half ounce Of
formalin has been poured may be shut
up in the incubator. The resulting
gas will thoroughly disinfect the ma
chine. After disinfection the incuba-
tor should ne run empty for several
days to get it in good operating condi-
ton. After the eggs are In place the
temperature should be at from 1O11 n
to 1902 degrees Fahrenheit the first
week, 1902 to 1O3 degrees the second
week, and at 103 degrees the third
week.
The eggs usually are turned for the
first time at the end of the second
day and twice daily through the eight
zenith or nineteenth day. The eggs are
cooled outside the Matching chamber
once daily after the seventh and up tc
the nineteenth day. Moist ire should
be furnished in artificial incubation ir
the South, in high attitudes, and wheI
the incubator room is dry. This ma.
be done by sprinkling the eggs witt
warm water or by placing we
sponge or pan Of water under the eg1
tray.

be buttoned close to the neck, but Is
shown open, with adjustable over-col-
lar In white. An attractive feature OF
this coat appears in the pockets which
are made with extension laps. The
sleeves flare at the cuffs, where one
of the novel buttons is posed. 1t Is as
important here as the dot over an
st."
The skirt is plain, gathered In full
at the back and has a loose belt at
the waist. 1t is little longer than the
skirts Of the past two seasons, reach
ing about two inches below the tops
of the shoes.
Just as pictured this suit Is OF
French serge in navy blue and after
all is said there is nothing better.
But 1t has been developed in other
colors of serge and is a success in any
Of them. The jacket is lined with
peau-de-cygne which has become SO
well established that Its name de-
serves an English translation.

(From the United States Department of
Agrculture)
The poultry raiser on farm or in
city who wishes to produce fall and
winter eggs with a by-product of
spring "fryers" should begin now to
play for the early setting of eggs, say
poultry specialists of the United
States department of griculture. In
the states of the extreme South set
tings should be made from the first
to the middle of February IN the cen
trail group of states, from the early
part to the last of February; and in
the northern tier Of states, from the
latter part of February to the early
part of April. With settings timed
on this schedule the chicks will hatch
In ample time to allow their maturity
before cold weather. The pullets
from these broods lay during the late
fall or early winter when eggs are
Scarcest.
The setting schedule outlined also
will permit the development Of early
spring "fryers." The young chicks
will be developed to the point wnere
they may be turned out on the ground
by the time vegetation is out, and so
may augment their feed with green
stuff The smaller breeds Of chickens
can be Matched later than those which
are larger and slower to develop.
Incubation.
One difficulty In setting eggs In
spring at selected dates If the natural
system of incubation is followed is in
finding broody hens at the proper time
If natural incubation is depended upor
exclusively it probably will be best fol
the poultry raiser to disregard date
and make settings whenever brood.

setting is made of wood, Is inches
square and about Is inches high, will

board six inches high. Three or fou
inches of damp earth should be place.

Easter Hats for Little Girls.

Everyone is entitled to a new hat
for Easter, even the littlest maid In
the family. and no one will wear her
new finery quite so joyously. She has
not been neglected by the milllners,
who must attend to the more serious
business of seeing to it that her elders
are properly hated, and 1T Is not diff
cult to come to a decision in choosing
n hat for her In shapes those that
resemble little bonnets have all the
Interference. Many of them have round
crowns and narrow brims and as many
more are bell-shaped, but, for the very
little girl there is no great variety In
shapes.
OF the two hats shown in the picture
the one at the top Is designed for a
child of three or more years and the
lower hat for the little miss of seven
at least. For the younger girl the
shane is covered with silk In light
color as a foundation for the rows of
fine lingerie lace plaitings that cover
II. At each side near the back two flat
rosettes, made of the plated lace, are
placed with the edge of one overlap
Ding the other. A collar of grosgrain
ribbon Is run through the center of the
rosettes and finished with bows at the
back and front.
This is one of the pretty little hats
that the home milliner can make with
out much risk of failure. The other is
a satin-covered shape, trimmed with
baby velvet ribbon in two colors. 1t is

In every poultry house there should

Poultry lice breed through pores In

pores and suffocates the vermin.

PROPER EGGS FOR MATCHING
Sound Doctrine to Say That We

Pullets' eggs should not be used for
Matching. 1t is a sound doctrine to
say that we should breed only from

The hens do not lay so many eggs
before the breeding season and conse-

eggs and produce better chicks.
