POINTS TO CONSIDER IN
SELECTING BROODERS
Size of Operation and Avail
able Buildings are Determin~
ing Factors.
Stoves Handle Largest Broods
With the Least Amount Of
Labor.
by J. Raymond Kessicr
Practical Poultryman

The one great advantage of artificial
brooding Is the number Of chicks
that can be cared for with a mini
mum Of labor, and the assurance
that the artificial mother can be de-
pended upon, IL the operator has
done his or her part. The smallest
type Of brooder will take care of City
chicks, which is the equal of four or
five hens, and with little more work
than the proper care Of one hen and
her flock would require. Then, when
we come to large brooder stoves,
built with capacities Of from three
hundred TO fifteen hundred chicks in
a flock, one cannot help but admit
that artificial methods are great labor
savers.

UNITED OLD AND NEW WORLD
Atlantic Cable, After Three Dishearts
ening Failures, Wss Successfully
Laid in JuIy-August, 1858.

Sixty years ago our broad Yankee
land awoke and learned that the old
country and the new had been united
by magical tie-the Atlantic cable.
Through the courage and persistence
of three Americans-there were 9TH
ers, but the three were the actual cable
sponsors-Cyrus w. Field, his brother,
David Dudley Field, and that fine old
philanthropist, Peter Cooper-the great
project was carried over. The total
cost was $1,S3A,5OO, the cable alone
taking 81 1.256,250, and the line crossed
from Trinity bay, Newfoundland, to
Valentia, Ireland, the cable being very
close to $500 miles long.
Three times the attempt to lay the
cable had failed, chiefly owing to de-
fects in its material. The fourth at
tempt was successful. The Niagara,
then the largest ship in the United
States navy, and the Agamemnon, a
British warship, met in midocean on
July %, 1858, each carrying section
of the cable. The ends were carefully
spliced and then the two ships turned
homeward, moving slowly as they paid
out the cable. On August the Mia
CARA reached Trinity bay; the Aga
memnon reached Valentia on the 9Th.
On August Is the cable was pro-
nounced in working order, and here is
the first official message that passed
across:
Europe and America are united by
telegraphy. Glory to God in the high
est: on earth peace, good win toward
men"

Paris.-A woman alighted from the
train at what remains of a little rail-
road station very close to the front.
Her hair was tritle gray but her
cheeks were pink, and she seemed to
be very happy to be arriving in that
place.
Very soon the reason became ap-

duty in the station. He stared and
gave a shout, "Mrs. Haring."

she shook hands-a handshake such
as is exchanged between friends long

WAVES OF HATE FOR KAISER
League Of optimIsts at Given Hour
Daily Will Wish Dire Things
for Huns.

Chicago, M.-A league Of optimists
has been organized in Chicago with
the avowed purpose of beating the
kaised by "waves Of hate"
Branches are to be formed in every
part of the United States, according
to Doctor Sheldon Leavitt, president
of the league, who calls himself a
''holy emotionalist." Here is the idea ::
Twice a day 100000 optimists
shall at a designated hour concentrate
Intellectually, grit their teeth, stamp
their feet and simultaneously wish
dire things for the Potsdam crowd.
The enemy shall be mentally anpihi-
lated.
The ritual carries with 1t a 'hymn
Of hate" The formula outlined by
Doctor Leavitt is as follows:
ST call down upon the German gov
ernment disaster, catastrophe, ruin,
disease, pestilence, annihilation and
the plague"
Then all that remains is for the al
lied armies to crush the foe.

A weIl-known French colonel had a
mania for questioning his officers about
their families, invariably starting OFF
with: ssWhat is your fathers profes-

Some Of fhe subalterns became so
wearied Of this endless repetition that
they decided among themselves to give

es is a laundress, and my sister is

On the following Sunday, after the
customary church parade, the colonel,
who had already received the same
answer to his questions from two or
three of the officers. turned to another
and started of in the old stereotyped
strain: "What is your fathers profes-

building France.

Paris.-Only a few months ago
Reims still sheltered some 600 chill
dren, although the Germans almost
daily bombarded the town.
How these children lived in the cell
lars and the special shelters while the
Germans fiercely bombarded the
town is a pathetic story. Though
these cellars and shelters were da-k,
dreary and damp, where the suns
rays never once showed themselves,
no one ever saw these children down.
hearted or discontented. Whenever
the bomhardment let up, even for
few minutes, these children swarmed
out Of the cold cellars to play in the
sun.
Duty and Resignation.
A correspondent during one Of these
Iulls walked down narrow street
bordered by the walls of houses Of
the sixteenth century, or such parts
Of them as had survived the Ger
man bombardments. He met young
ster standing in the middle Of the
street gazing at one Of the wrecked
houses. Asked why he was gazing at
that house, the boy answered:
'aThat house over yonder, monsieur?
I was born in that house. When
war broke out father was modified
and mother went to live with an aunt
in one Of the houses on the outskirts
of the city. Once a week come here
to look at my old home, or what is
left of it,"
"But aren't yo9 afraid"
aAfraid of what? My father is at
the front, my mother is still here, and
as long as she stays here, I will"
This child is type of all. All have
the same spirit Of duty and resigna-
tion, these children Of "the Martyr
City" -
They tell how they received In
structions to put on the masks against
the poisonous gas; Of: how they
played in shell holes filed with rain
water; of how they used walls which
had escaped the German shells to
play their game Of war.
Play at War Games.
Nearing the cathedral, almost COM
,pletely gutted by the bombardment,
the correspondent met crowd OF
boys playing at their favorite game.
He watched them for some time.
After playing in quickly constructed
trenches in one of the icourtyards OF
a destroyed house, where they had
ingeniously placed their toy machine
guns, the attacking party was just
Jumping out of their shelter when the
gas alarm was sounded. All the boys
quickly donned their masks and con-
tinued playing, rather stimulated by
the unforeseen reality of their game.
So interested were they that they
never thought of finding shelter, but
had to be ordered to do so by patrol
ling soldiers.
But these things could not go on.
The youngsters had too much free
time, as all the schools were closed
and days were spent in holiday-mak-
ing. The municipality established
schools in the huge cellars Of the big
champagne houses Of Reims.
Every day the teacher had to go
through the deserted streets under
heavy bombardment, and very often
the school children had to be kept in
after hours when the town was being
shelled. These children, having grown
up under these conditions, will be a
splendid help to France in rebuilding
a nation of valiant citizens.
