Mustard Gas Invented Here.

The report that an American in
ventor laid before an agent of the bu-
reau of mines Is months ago a form
ula for mustard gas, which the Ger
mans are now supposed to be using, is
to be taken up by the American In
ventors' association. The allegation
brought to the attention of the asso-
citation at its meeting the other day
was to the effect that Benjamin P.
Brooks, chief chemist of the CONNER

bureau and heard nothing more from

not high enough for the hen to es-
cape. BY using a coop the chicks can
find shelter and warmth under the
hen at any time, and the weaklings
after a few days may develop into
strong, healthy chicks.
The brood coop should be cleaned
at least once a week and kept free
from mites. If mites are found in
the coop, it should be thoroughly
cleaned and sprayed with kerosene oil
or crude petroleum. From l to 2
inches of sand or dry dirt or a thin
layer of straw or fine hay should be
spread on the floor Of the coop.
Brood coops should be moved weekly
to fresh ground, preferably where
there is new grass. Shade is very es-
sential in rearing chickens, especially
during warm weather; therefore, the
coops should be placed in the shade
whenever possible. A cornfield makes
fine range for young chickens, as ow-
ing to cultivation of the ground, they
get many bugs and worms and have
fresh soil to run on most of the time
and enjoy abundant shade.

TO RAISE INCUBATOR CHICKS
How to Induce Old Hen to Take Place
Of Artificial Brooder-Transfer
at Might.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of A%griculture.)
Hens are often used to raise incu-
bator-hatched chicks and to take the
place of the artificial brooder, a prac-
tice that is in operation OF many poul-
try farms. A few eggs are put under
the hen four or five days before the
incubator is to hatch. In the evening
following the hatch Of the incubator,
after the chickens are thoroughly dry,
one or two are put under the hen, and
If she is found to mother them proper
ly, the next evening as many more are
added as she can brood or care for
properly. Hens will successfully
brood 10 to Is chickens early in the
breeding season, and 1S to 25 in warm
weather, depending upon the size Of
the hen. This method Of handling
chickens does away with the artificial
brooder, and where one has only q
small number Of chickens to raise it Is
a very easy manner in which to handle
them, and also a good method when
it Is desired to raise separately special
lots of chicks. 1t should be borne in
mind, in adding chickens to a hen
which already has some to brood, that
1t is best to add those Of the same
color and age as the ones already with
her. as the hen will often pick the la
ter arrivals if they are of a color diff
ferent from the ones she is already
brooding. AS a rule this transferring
should take place at night, although
with a quite docile hen it can be done
in the morning.

If the mother hen is allowed to
range unrestricted with her chicks
she frequently takes her brood
through wet grass and as a result
some are chilled and die especially
the weaker ones which are likely to
be left behind. Where this careless
system Of management is practiced
the loss of young chicks is large.
When a coop is provided for the hen
such losses are largely prevented
