Forget Value of Pennies.
During the course Of his remarks
Hay asserted the average business
man, such as those who are members
Of the Chamber Of Commerce, forgets
the value of the penny, the nickel and
the quarter, and advised them to stop
and think a minute of what the small
coin means in the savings of the
world.
81 realize that we rebel against the
doing of small things, sue as the saw
ing of pennies, nickels, dimes and
quarters. It's the big thing, the heroic
thing, that grips us, but il we are to
win this war and find ourselves real
masters of the world we must first
master Ourselves-our desires, our
ease our appetites, our passions, our
indulgences. We must eliminate non
essential things, harmful things in our
personal and business life; we must
organize ourselves for efficiency. So
far our work of giving in the war has
been somewhat of an ecstasy and we
have been carried away by the excite
ment, the novelty, the fashion of it,
Well soon have to work and give out
Of our sorrow, and hardship, and, may
hap, out Of our extremities.
But, remember, the more saving we
are now in the midst of plenty the less
heavy the burden in the later days. If
during the year 1918 every man, wom-
an and child of America would save 5
cents per day the entire issue of the
$4,000, 900, 900 War Savings Certificates
would be taken up. The purchase of a
Thrift Stamp per week by every per-
son would make up 524900,000 of
the issue.
First Step Toward Peace.
"The first step necessary for the
establishing of peace-the sort of
peace the world must have if life on
this earth is to be worth while-is alb
solutely and Internationally to get the
Kaiser.
But we can't get the Kaiser by
mere words. These we have tried
through long months, and years before
we entered the war Now we must
win with the cruel weapons chosen by
those who began this war. To win we
must have men; men of blood, mind,
soul; men strong in body, true in
heart, loyal in spirit; men worthy to
live; men ready to die. These, by the
millions, have laid their lives upon
their country's altar.
ITO equip and maintain them we
must have money, money by the bill
lions. That money must come from
every quarter, it must come from
every pocket in the land. In the pres. |
ence of men who stand before the |
cruelest, bloodiest war demons the |
world has ever known and say, Here |
is my breast, pierce it If you viii; here |
is my blood, let it if you will; I dedi- |
cate my blood, my heart, my life, my
all, to the democracy of my country
and of the world'-in the presence of |
these. say, every man left behind in
the security and comfort of his home
and his office should say, Here's my
pocket, go through it; here's my bank
account, check on it. I dedicate my
savings to the democracy Of America

chine is small compared to the value
of the eggs used during the normal
life of the incubator. it is poor econ

The details of construction and
equipment of most incubators are so
subject to change that it is impossi-
BILE to state definitely the best kind
of lamps, brackets, regulators and
other equipment for the different in
cubators. The lamp should have a
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 n convenient height and
the egg tray convenient to handle.

EARLY HATCH, EARLY LAYERS

February, March and April are the
best month to hatch chickens, but
the sooner it can be done the better.
Hatching 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 De-
partment of Agriculture are urging
the Importance this year of the early
hatch. Early hatched chickens are
also easier to raise, as they live and
thrive better than those which are
still small when the hot weather
begins.

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 recon-
mend any particular machine, you
would best study the types and de-
eide for yourself. Wherever posi-
BILE it is well to select an incubator
which has given satisfaction in your
locality, SO that you may get the bene-
fit of the experience of other oper-
ators nearby. Some machines have
become popular in certain sections of
the country because they were ad-
vertised extensively in that section
rather than because of adaptability
to the climatic conditions.
Don't Buy Cheap Machine.
Cheap machines are less reliable,
require more attention and wear out
much quicker than higher-priced in

HATcHINe OSTRICH EGGS

Spokane, Notwithstanding to Supt.
Of Parks John w. Duncan, the male
ostrich in Manito Park Zoo Is sharing
with his mate the labor of Matching
seven ostrich eggs, on which the hen
ostrich began to sit Few days ago.
The male ostrich sits on the eggs
In the daytime and the hen ostrich
takes up the work at night. Besides
her duties in mothering the eggs for
one shift in every twenty four hours.
the hen ostrich still adds to the size
of the sitting by laying another egg
occasionally. The keepers at the zoo
built the nest under a shed to give
the ostriches protection from the
weather. The hen ostrich, however.
disliked the arrangement and with
the assistance of her mate. rolled the
eggs outside into the sun, where the
Matching is now being conducted.
The Matching process continues forty
two days. Six eggs from the same
hen laid earlier, are being incubated
in the city laboratory in an electrical
incubator.
