(Trom the United States Department Of
Agriculture.)
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
viii permit the development of early
spring "fryers." The young chicks
will be developed to the point where
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 upon
exclusively it probably will be best for
the poultry raiser to disregard dates
and make settings whenever broody
hens are available. A good nest for
setting is made of wood, 10 inches
square and about 10 inches high, with
a top. The front is open except for a
board six inches high. Three or four
inches of damp earth should be placed

GREAT DEMAND
FOR CANADIAN LAND
Americans Are Buyers and Be-
coming SettIerS-AnxiouS to
Get Cheap and PrOduc-
tive Land.

Reports are to hand that there win
be a large influx Of settlers from the
United States into the Canadian West
during the coming Spring. For a time
there has been a falling OF, on account
Of the fear OF CONSUMPTION, which of
course was not possible, and which the
Canadian Government gave every as
surance would not be put into opera
ton. In my case II would not affect
the American settler, and more than
that the man who was working on the
farm, helping to produce the grain
that goes to feed those who are at war,
would not be affected.
The excellent yields OF the Western
Canada crops. and the high prices Sc
cured is having its influence on those
looking for homes. The authenticated
reports that have been sent out from
time to time that this farmer and that
farmer had paid for their entire farm
holdings out Of one crop has reached
the ears of the man looking for n farm.
When he hears that G.. H.. Beatty of
Nanton, Alberta, had $40 bushels of
wheat from - acres or an average OF
561h bushels to the acre, he becomes
interested. When he learns that Sid
ney p. Phillips Of BeddefOrd, Alberta,
threshed ten hundred and 1fty-three
bushels of wheat, the average being
5215 bushels per acre, his interest is
further aroused. Thos. Long of Leth-
bridge had 120 bushels of oats to the
acre from a field OF % acres, w.
Quinn of MIX River had 6,004 bushels
of wheat from 100 acres, an average
of GO bushels per acre, and Robert
Tackaberry of NoblefOrd makes afida-
Wit that he had an average of seventy
six bushels Of wheat per acre from a
Geld Of 1888 acres. Thos. BOultOn Of the
same place makes affidavit that from
fifty acres he had a yield Of f~fty-three
bushels of wheat per acre. Newell J.
Mobiles affidavit of getting "a bushels
per acre from 1000 acres stands out
most strongly as evidence of what the
wheat grower can do. This affidavit is
strengthened by a paragraph stating
that he had 100 bushels and 80 lbs. per
acre from 394.G9 acres. Mrs. Nancy
Coe makes affidavit that on her farm
at Nobleford she threshed six thou
sand one hundred and ten bushels of
wheat from one hundred and fifteen
acres, or ffty-three bushels and eight
lbs. per acre, and from a fax field
(stubble field) she got 20 bushels and
50 pounds per acre.
1t cannot be said that these were
freak yields because so many had such
great success. When these reports are
read, the man looking for a farm be
comes convinced.
These are only n few Of the reasons
that will cause n large influx Of Amer
lean farmers into the Canadian Yves
during the coming Spring.
The farmers now resident in Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta ar,

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 Tinge.

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 Il tester is
made from a piece of wrapping paper
u by "a inches, rolled to form II 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
1t. Many times a dark room can be had,
but not the sunlight. An ordinary shoe
box and a bedroom lamp will be just
the thing. A hole is made In the'top Of
the box and one at the bottom for the
free circulation of air about the lamp.
In front of the lamp flame a hole the
size of a 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 a great many eggs are to be
candled, a round cylinder eight inches
high and four inches in diameter,
with two holes in front and n small
one In the bottom, is attached to a
large "T" extending about IS inches
from the wall. The lamp cord is
dropped down the perpendicular pipe
to which the cylinder is attached. A
G0-candle-pOwer lamp is used to give
the best results. With this device four
eggs may be handled at a time by an
experienced GAMBLER.
A fresh egg has a pinkish tlnge. An
egg that has a dark spot the size of a
dime on the yolk shows that incuba-
ton has taken place and the egg is no
longer fit for food under ordinary cir
cumstances.

PROPER EGGS FOR MATCHING
Sound Doctrine to Say That We
Should Breed only From Hens
Discard Eggs From Pullets.

Pullets' eggs should not be used for
Matching. 1t is a sound doctrine to
say that we should breed only from
hens.
The hens do not lay so many eggs
before the breeding season and conse-
quently have a tendency TO lay larger
eggs and produce better chicks.

NOW LOCATED IN FRANCE

George Erven has son in the
United States army who in July
sailed for England. This week he
received letter from him in which
he stated that he was Oh his way to
France. The letter will give cur
readers some idea as 10 what is tolng
on. for that reason we publish the
letter in full as follows:
England, August Is, 1917
Dear Folks:-
Went to London today and pass
ed in review before the King and
the Queen. Sure got very good
reception. Never saw so many peo-
pie before. Go across to France to-
morrow, so by the time you get this
letter we ought to be working. The
chances are still good for railroad
ing, as we are not getting enough
drill or anything else.
Saw the Kings castle and West
Minister Abbey and also the
horse guards. First time in Lon
don and sure saw some gooG sights.
Marched about 10 miles in all today
and it was hard work on account
of being soft, but feel good now.
Got up at 200 A. M. and have to
get up at 400 in the morning.
Hope we get to see Paris, as l want
to see all l can while l am here.
Saw Piccadily Square today, sup
pose it is from the song. The
American Flag was certainly shown
freely today. If you can get Chi
cago papers you can probably see
something about us once in a while.
Will write you again from France"

RUSSIA AGAIN DIVIDED

Russian leaders are again at log
gerheads with the outcome in doubt.
The trouble in the present instance
is a difference of opinion between
Korniloff, head of the Russian ar
mics, and Kerensky, the premier
Kerensky has taken the bull by the
horns and has placed under arrest
the agent of Korni,off who demanded
that he give the commander in chief
dictatorial power. Not only this but
he has deposed Korniloff as head of
the army and has put another in his
place.
Whether Russia will weather this
storm and be able to present a strong
opposition to the Germans is a ques-
ton the outcome of which must re-
main a matter of doubs. It is impos-
sible now to determine. what a new
day, will develop in that country. II
Russia could pull herself together
and put up a strong fight the war
would get far into a new year. The
chaotic condition which prevails
there is encouragement to the central
empires to hold on in the hope that
in time they will get a compromise.
The most encouraging feature OF
the Russian situation lies in the fact
that all elements seem to be combin-
ed on the one point of opposition to
Germany.

AUTO RUNS OVER BICYCLE

Tuesday afternoon about four
o'clock an automobile occupied by
two men was coming up town from
the fair grounds. When in front
of the residence of Frank Hudspeth
the driver of the car crowded Leo
Roth, the eight year old son Of John
Roth, who was riding bicycle, into
the curb with the result that the car
ran over the bicycle, completely de-
molishing it. Fortunately the boy
fell to the pavement but out of the
reach of the car. He was badly
frightened and received several bad
scratches on the face.
There was plenty OF room In the
street and eye witnesses say the driv-
er of the car deliberately ran into the
boy when he could have turned out
and passed him without the least
trouble.
After the accident happened the
unknown driver stopped his car to
see IL the boy had been injured.
When informed that he was not. he
gave Leo soc to square the deal.
This is not going to be sufficient.
Mr.. Roth, father of the boy has the
number of the car and as soon as the
owner can be located. he will be re-
quired to at least settle damages.

way. For he loved the castled hills
where he first heard his mothers
lullabies, he loved the sparkling
brook that cooled his boyhooo feet,
he loved his old friends whose
hearthstones even now, were spat-
tered with the blood of their slain;
but even more-much more-he low
ed his son, and all his children's
children. He loved his farm and
every tree and shrub that spelled his
life's achievement. And yes, most of
all, he loved the land that gave him
everything, his own America. And
loyaly, faithfully he went out and
bought himself another Liberty
Bond. Manson Journal.

LETTER FROM FORMER SOLDIER

The editor of the Republican re-
ceived a most interesting letter yes
terday from r. C. Medley, of Yuma,
Arizona. He served in the Spanish
American war. His letter is full Of
enthusiasm and ef highly interesting
material. 1t follows:
II feel it my duty to say a few
words to the brave and noble young
men of Audubon county who have
responded to our. nations call. 1t
shows through the columns of The
Republican that everyone in the
county Is doing their utmost to help
in the struggle which has been forced
upon us.
We must look back to our fore
fathers who stood the test and sacri-
feed everything to keep others from
wrenching our freedom from us. so
now it is our duty to take their places
and keep our nation as free as they
left it for us. 1t is a great sacrifice
to leave our loved ones at home to
greive over us in our absence, but
when you think of it it is not only
our nation We are fighting for, but
it is to keep those left behind still
living in a free country.
My heart is with every young SOL
der who has to go to the front, and
may God bless and guide each and
everyone through this struggle, and
return them to their loved ones with
honors they will be proud of to the
last"

OMAHA STRIKE SETTLED

The most extensive strike in the
packing house industries in the his
tory of South Omaha was settled
satisfactorily late Tuesday through
the efforts of Frederick l.. Feick.
government mediator, and the men
returned to work Wednesday morn
ing.
The terms of settlement were sign
ed by the representatives of the pack
ing companies, by a committee of
strikers and by Mediator Feick and
afterwards ratified by unanimous
vote of a mass meeting attended by
most of the 5000 men and women
who have been on a strike.
All employees are to receive an ad-
vance of 2A cents an hour in wages !;
all strikers are to be reinstated with
out discrimination: the employees
are to be permitted to organize
unions; packing house managers
agree to meet committees of their
ing for each plant to be done by one
man.
Mr.. Feick who arrived in Omaha
Monday had been in almost continu-
Gus conference with one side or the
other drawing from each such con-
ctssions as were necessary to brin:,
about an agreement and the elo-
guent appeal from hin to their pa
tr'Olism as Americans that wol the
overwhelming vote of ratification
from the mass meeting.
Mr.. Feick told the strikers he
knew they were not receiving wages
enough but that the country is now
in war and they should help the
government now that the government
might help them later. He promised
a thorough government investigation
of the packing industry and a prop
per adjustment of all grievances at
an early day.

FALLS FROM HORSE AND
is SERIOUSLY INJURED

George Preston was seriously in
jured while riding one of the horses
in the county running races at the
fair grounds, Tuesday afternoon
Just how the accident happened or
it's exact cause may never be known,
but ii seems that he was crowded in
to the tense by one of the other rid
ers who attempted to go around him.
His horse being small, was not hard
to force against the tense and in
some way, Georges lower limb was
caught between the horse and the
board fence. The speed with which
the horse was travelling, and the
great pressure eXerted, tore the flesh
from a large part of the limb. One
piece of flesh about three inches wide
and six inches long was entirely
stripped from the bone. Another
piece, somewhat smaller, was also
torn loose, but left hanging, which
the doctor was able to replace by
sewing. The muscles, cords, and
ligaments are very badly torn and
mutilated. The bone, fortunately,
is not injured and the attending
physician is of the opinion that the
wound will heal nicely and does not
think there is much danger of COM
plications arising. At best, the lad
may be interned for several weeks.
Great credit is due George, how
ever, for his great courage and steady
nerve. At the time of the accident,
he exhibited great presence of mind
and as cool as anyone attending him.
At the time the doctor dressed the
wounds, he refused to take an an
aesthetic, tho it caused him great
pain, which continued until yester-
day when he was resting much cas-
Ter. 1t is sincerely hoped by all that
he may recover rapidly and be about
again. The Fair Association very
much regrets that the accident hap
pened and hopes that it may not be-
as serious as is now reported
