Proper Care of Eggs
Intended For Incubation

Poor matches cannot always be
charged to the hen or the incubator.
OF great Importance In securing good
hatch is the care OF the eggs before
they are placed In the incubator.
While 1t u not known definitely at
whit temperature eggs chill. 1t Is safe
to keep them In Il temperature Of 50
degrees to G5 degrees T.. Eggs start to
incubate at GS degrees to 40 degrees
+. and develop slowly. but they will
not hatch successfully ut that temper
allure. Many eggs are chilled through
not being gathered often enough.
Incubator eggs can be kept In SIM
pic tray by lnying them Oh their sides.
1t Is n good practice to turn them daily
to prevent the yOlk from adherihg to
tho upper part Of the shell. Washing
Matching eggs removes the bloom and
permits OF too rapid evaporation.
To prevent diseases which might he
caused from insanitury eggs the
Pennsylvania State college school of
agriculture and experiment station
recommends dipping them in n disin-
fcctant like alcohol or . to 8 per cent
stock dip solution. In my case the
eggs should not he rubbed.
1t is impossible to tell whether an
egg Is fertile or infcrtiie except by In
cubation. a common superstition ad-
vocatcd by some poultrymcn Is that
long eggs produce coekcrcis and short
cggs pulIcts. 1t IL impossible. however.
to forctell sex by the shape OF mn egg.
1t Is best to wait four to seven days
after mating for Matching eggs. From
one mating fertility will last two or
three weeks.

uraIized citizens Of the United States
began campaign to win America to
Germany through the method OF get
Ing laws enacted by the state legis.
latures Of the various states provid-
ing for the teaching Of the German
language In the schools.
In Colorado such law waR passed
and upon petition Of ten guardians or
parents, the school board must estsb-
lish a German course. Our people
did not entertain any idea that 1t was
an organized effort to install German
ideas or sentiment into the minds Of
the pupils. and thought the idea Of
the pupils learning an additional
language WAS a good one, and one
which should be advantageous TO
the pupils in speaking and trading
with the German speaking popula-
ton OF the United States.
1t is an evident fact that the teach.
ing of German Tor any other subject,
for that matter) In schools leads to
an interest In the subject taught, and
pupils SO taught will have . sympa-
thy with the subject.
Many teachers are being dismissed
from schools now In all sections OF
the country for their German teach
ings and sentiments. In Denver,
teachers and professors are being dis
missed from their positions, and
those retained are required to take
the oath Of allegiance to the United
States. This In the way to stamp out
kaiserisin In the Nation.

MUSICAL TRAINING.

ton Of Every Child.


We shall make no real progress In

HUM. until we come to consider Y
training In the rudiments Of music rs
al essential point In the education Of
our children.
Too often parents excuse their re-
missness on the ground that their chill
dren show no spontaneous desire to
study music. Because child shows
no such desire to study reading. writ
Ing and arithmetic do we for that rea-
son permit him to neglect totally these
subjects? No normal child desires to
study any subject. md failure on the
part OF a child to crave musical edu.
cation should not Ike permitted to ex-
empt him from such training.
In my opinion tile average Guild
should begin to study music at the age
Of eight or nine and FOR Mt least two
years devote nn hour day to the exer-
else OF 1t.
After two years the childs prefer.
cnce and aptitude may safely lie con-
suited In regard to further study. But
In nny event the two ycars Of study
have not been wasted. for tic has al
ready learned something that will lie
Ut use to him all his life.
