ables the food to pass from the stom-

Toronto Hall Scene of Noisy Demon
stration When Former Secretary
Trys to Speak at Dry Meet.

Torono, March 2.-William Jen-

state for the United States, received
a rough reception on Thursday night
from one of the biggest audiences that
ever turned out to hear a temperance
orator.
For more than half an hour he at
tempted to address meeting OF the
Dominion alliance amid hurricane of
catcalls, Kisses, shouting and ringing
of bells.
From the first to the last Mr.. Bryan
remained calm and, although he could
not be heard beyond the front row. he
delivered his speech to the last word.
The disturbance had it's center in a
party of about sixty men in the front
of the balcony. All wore the badges
of returned soldiers and it was OBJ
vious from the first that they were de-
termined to humiliate the visitor.

Patience With sitters.

To be successful with sitting hens
requires careful and faithful attention
to their needs, and above all, Patience.
Even with the best Of care seme hens
prove to be tickle mothers and cause
trouble and loss in Matching by break
ing their eggs, leaving their nests or
trampling on the chickens when first
Matched. Most hens of the general
purpose breeds, such as the. Plymouth
Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds
and Orpingtons make very good moth
ers. The heavier class or meat breeds,
including the Brahmas and Cochins,
are good sitters, but are inclined to
be clumsy on the nest. The Leghorns
and other Mediterranean breeds are
very nervous and usually do not make
good mothers.

Early Hatch, Early Layers.

February, March and April are the
best months to hatch chickens, but
the sooner it can be done the better.
Matching should be completed If pos
sible by the first of May. Chickens
Matched before this time will have a
good chance to mature and be in lay
ing condition as pullets before the cold
weather of fall sets in, and should
in consequence, be producers during
the entire fall and winter. This is one
of the chief reasons poultry specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture are urging the Importance
this year of the early hatch. Early
Matched chickens are also easier to
raise, as they live and thrive better
than those which are still small when
the hot weather begins.

WELL TO SELECT
BEST INCUBATOR
Hatcher Found to Be Successful
Locally, Usually Most
Profitable.
MANY MAKES ARE RELIABLE
Machines Most Popular in Vicinity
Enables Beginner to Learn From
Experience of Qthers-Size
Is Of Importance.

If you are concerned now with the
selection of an incubator, you have the
choice of many reliable makes. Since
it is not advisable to recommend any
particular machine, you would best
study the types and decide for your
self. Wherever possible it is well to
select an incubator which has given
satisfaction in your locality, SO that
you may get the benefit of the expert
ence of other operators near by. Some
machines have become popular in GER
tain sections of the country because
they were advertised extensively in
that section rather than because Of
adaptability to the climatic conditions.
Don't Buy Cheap Machine.
Cheap machines are less reliable, re-
quire more attention and wear out
much quicker than higher-priced incu-
bators. AS the value of the machine is
small compared to the value of the
eggs used during the normal life of the
Incubator, it is poor economy to pur-
chase a machine that is not reliable.
The details of construction and
equipment of most incubators are so
subject to change that it is impossible
to state definitely the best kind of
lamps, brackets, regulators and other
equipment for the different incubators.
The lamp should have bowl large
enough to hold sufficient oil to burn at
least SO hours under average weather
conditions; it should be easy to remove
and replace and set absolutely tight in
position. The incubator should be set
so that the lamp is at convenient
height and the egg tray convenient to
handle.
Size Of Machine to Get.
The best size of an incubator to buy
depends upon circumstances. 1t takes

KILL MANY GERMANS
PERsHlNG's TROOPS IMPLICIT Sc
WE'RE LOSSES ON FOE.
Ground in Front Of Position Held by
U. S. Men StreWn With Ger
man Dead.

With the American Army in France,
March 4.-American troops repuised
a strong German attack in the salient
north of Toul on Friday morning.
There were many American casualties,
one of the killed being a captain who
was graduated from West Point 10
1917.
The raid was a complete failure,
three German prisoners remaining ID
American hands.
The ground in front of the Ameri-
can trenches was strewn with Ger
man dead.
A driving wet snow was falling
when the Germans opened fire on the
American salient with every weapon
at their command. Seventy-sevens,
heavy shells, and gas shells fell IN q
perfect whirlwind on the American
trenches for half an hour.
At six o'clock the barrage fire lift
ed on the trenches to the right OF the
salient and Germans numbering 24o
came sweeping forward.
They came forward apparently in
tending to make big haul and
jumped into what was left of the
trenches, but there, instead OF the
easy time anticipated, found the Amerl-
cans all ready for battle. Fierce
hand-to-hand fighting began.
One American captain rallied men
with rifles and machine guns and went
through the American wire entangle-
ments into No Mans Land, and there
waited for the enemy, whom he ex-
pected to be driven out by his COM
rades in the trenches.
He was right, for. soon groups OF
the enemy started back through the
wire entanglements. The Americans
poured in deadly fire, but unfortu-
nately the captain was killed during the
fight. He is the first member of the
1917 class at West Point to be killed.
