GIVE SITTING HENS
SPECIAL ATTENTION
Thoroughly Dust Fowl With
Good Insect Powder.
Arrange Nest In Some Dark. Out-of.
the-Way Place, Where She Will
Not Be Disturbed-Water and
Feed Are Necessary.

AS the time approaches for the hen
TO become broody or sit, if care is
taken to look into the nest, it will be
seen that there are few soft, downy
feathers being left there by the hen
also the hen stays longer on the nest
when laying at this time, and on being
approached will quite likely remain on
the nest, making clucking noise,
rufiiing her feathers and pecking at
the intruder. When 1t Is noted that a
hen sits on the nest from two TO three
nights In succession and that most of
the feathers are gone from her
breast, which should feel hot to the
hand, she is ready to be transferred
to a nest which has been prepared for
her beforehand, according to a poul-
try specialists of the United States
department Of agriculture. The nor
mai temperature of hen is from 1O6
to 1O7 degrees F., which varies slightly
during incubation.
Dust the hen thoroughly with insect
powder. and in applying the powder
hold the hen by the feet, the head
down. working the powder well into
the feathers, giving special attention
to regions around the vent and under
the wings. The powder 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 from
the regular laying nest at night and
handle her carefully in doing so. Put
a china egg or two in the nest where
she is to sit and place board over
the opening so that she canot get off.
Toward the evening of the second day
quietly go in 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 Matching
time they should be confined and not
be disturbed until the hatch is COM
pleted. unless they become restless,
when it may be best to remove the
chicks that are Matched first. In cool
it Is best not to put more
than ten eggs under hen. while later
In the spring one can put twelve or
fifteen, according to the size Of the hen.

ted States. Such is the statement Of
the United States department of la
Dor.
"The growing needs of the country
demand that some such comprehen-
sive highway system be constructed"
says Robert f. Black, Chicago mana
ger of large motortruck concern.
'In the past there has been too great
lack of foresight on the part of the
road builders. They have lacked vi
sion to foresee the requirements of
even five years ahead. A road built
today must be built, not with the idea
of present traffic but that of ten years
in the future.
1.-THE growing need Of the day Is for
transportation. We have simply got to
provide it. We cannot stop it and the
sentiment of the country will not toll
crate any handicap of our transporta-
ton system.
with each year the railroads are
becoming more and more inadequate.
Motor transportation is growing eco
nomical necessity, fact that is being
recognized more and more each day as
motortrucks are called upon to handle
traffic that the railroads cannot accom-
modate.
Estimates prepared by engineering
authorities show that the United
States could afford to spend $780,
600 900 on q hard-surfaced road system
of $4,000 miles which would serve d.
rectly and indirectly 81 per cent OF
the population of the entire country.
Not only would such system be an
economic asset that would pay for
itself many times over, but it's con-
struction would provide work for
many thousands of people for num-
Der Of years, and in that respect alone
would have great business value to
the country in general.
"War increases business to replace
the great losses of destruction; but
the development of nation In times
Of peace provides more normal and
healthy market for labor and mate
rial that can be made stabilizer Of
business and industrial conditions.
"a well planned national highway
system is a necessity, and as soon as
the nation can complete the plan con-
ditions will force putting it into opera
ton"
