NESTS FOR THE SITTING HENS

Where only a few hens are set
special quarters are not necessary.
but if many are used a separate
room should be provided. If port
able nests have been provided for
the laying hens, the sitters can be
moved in them to new quarters.
OF the various styles of nests used
for sitting hens this one has given
good satisfaction. A box Is inches
square, Is inches wide with a board
inches high in front to prevent
nesting material from falling out.
The nests may be arranged in tiers
with hinge front which makes
platform for each tier when open.
When using bank of nests as the
one just described, it would be well
to place three or four inches of
damp earth in each nest. The nest
ing material MS next put in and
may consist of hay, chaff, or straw.
Pack this material down firmly and
shape a circular nest out of it,
which should be slightly deeper at
the center than at the edges, as a
nest so shaped will prevent the
eggs from rolling out from under
the hen and becoming chilled.

der should also be sprinkled in the
nest. The nest should be in some
quiet, out-of-the way place where the
hen will not be disturbed. Move her

In quietly where she is sitting, leave
some feed and water, remove the
board from the front or top of the
nest and let the hen come off when
she Is ready. Should she return to
the nest after feeding, remove the
china egg or eggs and put under those
that are to be incubated. If the nests
are slightly darkened the hens are less
likely to become restless. At hatch
ing time they should be confined and
not be disturbed until the Matching is
completed unless they become rest

the chicks that are Matched first In

How to Ship Matching Eggs
Eggs for Matching are shipped extern.
sively over long distances successful
ly, but in many cases the shipment
appears to affect the hatch. Setting
eggs are packed for shipment in sew
eral different ways. One Of the best
methods is to use a common market
masket we'll lined on the bottom and
sides with excelsior. After wrapping
the eggs in a thin layer of paper and
enough excelsior to make a ball about
inches in diameter, pack them tight
ly in the basket, then put on a cover
ing OF excelsior, and over all sew 4
piece of strong cotton cloth, or the
cloth can be pushed up under the out
side rim of the basket with a case
knife. The latter method of fastening
the cloth Is much quicker than the
former and just as effective. Eggs are
also shipped safely almost any dis
lance by packing them in a stiff paste
board carton or box made for this
purpose, the space around the egg be-
ing filed with either chaff or bran
This package is then placed in bas-
ket. the bottom and sides of which are

MAGNESIA BATHS
FOR INDIGESTION
Doctor Recommends Them in Place
of Drugs, Pepsin, Soda or Art
ificial Digestents.

"Only those in constant touch with
sufferers from indigestion and dyspep-
STA can fully realize the harm done by
the improper use of artificial diges-
tents or drugs like pepsln or soda pills
and tablets in the treatment of stom-
ach trouble declares well known
physician.
In fully nine cases out OF ten diges-
tive trouble is caused by an excess of
hydrochloric acid in the stomach, which
sours and ferments the food. creating
gas on the stomach and often causing
intense pain or burning.
The forcing of food from stomach to
intcstines with artificial digestents in
such a case is almost criminal folly as
serious intestinal indigestion may very
easily follow. Instead the stomach
should be given magnesia bath to
clean out the acids, sweeten the food
contents. soothe and allay inflamma-
ton and irritation of the stomach walls
and thus permit the normal healthy
digestion of the food.
You can give your acid inflamed
stomach no finer treatment than
pleasant to take, cannot injure the
stomach and is not at all expensive.
Just get small bottle of Bisurated
Magnesia (either tablets or powder)
of the powder or two tablets in q glass
of water and drink it at every meal
for few days and your stomach will
act and feel fine. 1t must be under
stood that 1 do not advise the use of
such forms of magnesia as citrates
acetates. sulphates, milks or lump
magnesia. One of these might do more
harm than good. I believe that moth
ing but pure bisurated maEnesia
should be used to neutralize an acid
stomach. This form is not difficult to
obtain. The best druggists have it
and in the bisurated tablet or powder
form it will instantly neutralize stom-
ach acidity and insure painless, natural
digestion for even chronic sufferers
from stomach trouble.

INCREASE THE TONNAGE.

While Sir Eric Geddes tells the British house of commons that grati- lying progress is being made in the destruction of the German underwa- ter boats. that they are being sunk or captured as rapidly as they are being built, it is perfectly evident that they are still an important factor to contend with and that there can be no relaxation on the part of any of the allied countries in the shipbuilding programmes which are underway. While the destruction of the U-boats means that the effectiveness of the submarine warfare is being kept down and prevented from being the success which Germany has relied upon, it cannot help being realized that in spite of the success to which Sir Eric re- fers the submersibles are each week sending to the bottom a number of ships, and that the necessity exists for the building with all possible haste of as many merchant vessels as the resources and facilities of the countries will permit.
 We have got to make up not only for those which are being sunk but in view of the depletion which has already taken place we must bend ev- cry energy to put forth 2 greater ton mage than the enemy is able to dis pose Of. The shipyards of this and other countries must be depended up. on for this accomplishment. It is war work of the greatest importance and nothing should be allowed to stand in its way. The victory which is de sired and the shortening of the wal will depend in a large degree upon th' activity of allied shipyards.

WHEAT AND OTHER GRAIN

Not a little attention has been at-l tracted by the fact that farmers in certain sections of the country were feeding wheat to the livestock at the very time that the nation had bumper crop of corn and 9 nationwide effort is being made to save on the consumption of wheat that the de- mands of our soldiers abroad and our allies for that grain can be met.
 Out in New York state the explana- tion advanced for using the wheat i'll that way was that transportation fa- cilities made it impossible for them to get any other grain and it was necessary in order to keep their stock alive to feed that which was pos- sessed. In Oklahoma last fall it was argued that the price which the far mer could get for his wheat promised to be so low that it would be more profitable to shovel it into the hogs.
 Now comes a statement from an Ida lo farmer to the effect that he was forced to feed wheat because it was worth only $225 hundredweight, while corn would have cost him $4.25 a hundredweight and oats s3.55 a hun dr4dweight, and he contends that while wheat is made the cheapest food we have, and e prohibitive price is al- lowed for substitutes he ought not to be forced to pay twice the price of the value of the grain which he pos sesses in order to obtain substitutes.
 That is a situation which certainly In due fairness to all concerned ought not to exist. Tine fixing of wheat prices is unquestienably Justified but there is no good reason why the sub stitutes should ha allowed to go sky high and keep going.

TESTING THE UNsINKABLE SHIP

In view of the needs of increasing our shipping the large losses which have been suffered and which con- tinue to be experienced each week, the importance of an unsuitable ship cannot be overlooked. Time and again have ideas been worked out with such an end in view only to have them quickly dashed to pieces as soon as the vessels were put to the test
 Only recently a shipbuilder has presented the idea of equipping ves- sels with large number. many thou sand, alright boxes, which it is be- lieved will be sufficient to give buoy ancy to a vessel even though it should be torpedoed more than once. In keeping with this idea one Of the seized Austrian liners, renamed the L1cia. has been fitted out.

COAL FOR NEXT WINTER.

In connection with the advice of the fuel administrator to the people of the country to put in their supply of coal for next winter as soon as they can 1t Is proposed that afFidavits be ob- tained from consumers by the local fuel officials as to the amount of coal which was consumed during 1917 and the amount which now remains on hand
 The purpose of this is to prevent the hoarding of a far greater amount than will be required for the next winter, and so far as possible do re- strict consumers to the same amount as they consumed the past winter. It can be appreciated that when it comes to the coal on hand for next winter there will be very few instances fn which householders and other con- sumers will have anything to report, and it is likewise to be realized that In the cases of those who closed up their homes and went to live at ho- tels or with other families because of their inability to get fuel the amount of cozl which they used in the past winter is not going to mean a fair average upon which to base their sup ply for the future. A great many peo- pie also shut up part of their homes because of the shortage and as the result even though the winter was unusually severe they consumed less than a normal amount.
 It is therefore quite apparent that he fuei officials will not be able to hold to any hard and fast rule when It comes to fixing the amount which people can store up for the winter of ts1s-1e. It will be a matter where common sense and good judgment must be exercised.
