TYPE OF INCUBATOR TO BUY

Farm Poultry keepers are very gen.
orally recognizing the advantages of
using ar incubator instead of hens for
Matching their chicks. The incubator
insures an early hatch, reduces the Ia
Dor, and is more economical than
Matching with hens. Where incuba-
ton and brooding are done by the nat
ural method about three months of
egg production during the heaviest
laying season is lost by each hen
which sits and broods flock of chicks.
This means a loss of from three to
four dozen eggs for each hen used in
Matching and raising chicks, thus the
increase in egg production where in
cubators are used for Matching in
stead Of hens will go long way to-
ward paying the cost Of the incubator
in one season. Many inquiries are re-
ceived in regard to which is the best
incubator to buy. This is a question
which each prospective purchaser
should decide for himself, but there
are Il few principles which may be
followed in choosing a satisfactory
incubator. Poorly constructed incu-

they are hard to operate, frequently
give poor matches and soon wear out.
The first consideration in buying a
machine is to see that it is we'll built
of substantial material. Incubators
having tin or paste board bodies
should be avoided. The walls of the
incubator should be of matched lum-
Der put together in a substantial man.
ner with plenty of asbestos, wool-felt,
or other high-grade insulating mater
lal, packed between the outer and in
ner wall to form chamber which will
hold the heat. The incubator heater
should be large enough to insure plen-
ty of heat even in cold weather and
should be built of durable material.
The thermostat is an important part
of the machine and should be made en-
tirely of metal instead of being filled
with liquid, as the former type is much
more durable. There is little choice
between the hot air or hot water ma
chimes, provided a we'll built one of
either type is chosen. Hot water ma
chimes should be equipped with copper
tanks. lncubators with complicated
adjustments are to be avoided. There
are at least half dozen we'll known
machines on the market which meet all
the above requirements.

MEN RE-
TURNING TO FARMS

When the farmers boy leaves home
to enter the College of Agriculture of
the University of Missouri, the chance
that he will return to the farm after
graduation is far greater than the one
that he will not. To support this
statement, Dean Mumford says:
"More than 400 young men who re-
ceived training in the College of Ag-
riculture during 1919, will engage in
farming in Missouri tbs year. These
figures are in disagreement with the
statement which is sometimes made
that students who come to the Col
lege of Agriculture leave the farm.
The percentage of alumni and former
students who are actually on farms
varies in different colleges of agricul-
ture from 60 to 80 per cent.
ut is interesting to note that in a
recent survey made of the alumni of
Yale University, only two per cent of
the graduates were in any way en-
gagged in agricultural work.
ut is apparent that students pre-
pairing themselves for the vocation of
agriculture will find in the colleges of
agriculture, the opportunity sought"

who are enXious to grow garden to
relieve the strain on their pocketbooks,
must get into fighting form right now.
The battle ground should have been
prepared last fall. If you did not pre-
pare it the enemy has the jump on
you. Do it now and maneuver the en-
envy into it. His first attack will be
made by his Late Spring Division.
Counter it by planting onions, peas,
parsnips, spinach and satisfy in the
front-line trenches. They can be de-
pended upon to withstand this force
through early March. Later in the
month throw reinforcements into the
garden ground by planting carrots,
beets, turnips and potatoes. AS the
battle wakes warmer, early in April,
plant sweet corn and beans in the road
of the enemy. The last reserves for
spring defense will be found in lima
beans, okra, cucumbers and melons.
These paintings should not be found
necessary before late May.
With this army of defenders, prop
erly supplied with food and drink, the
high cost of living should receive a
severe set back. The final thrust at
the enemy is to be made in late sum-
mer when the fall garden is planted.
If help at any time is needed write to
the University of Missouri College of
Agriculture, Columbia.

Governor the ablest and best known
Democrat in it, Frank H. Farrls.
In doing SO, we know that he has
brains and Judgment and courage
enough to meet the requirements Of
the office; he has done more service
for the party than any man who will
be his opponent; he has performed
more personal service for others than
any one who will raise their voice
against him. He never faltered in
battle, and never quit fighting until
the conflict was over.
He has wide experience as a legisla-
tor, is a lawyer of high standing and
fine attainmcnts, and unlike the pro-
phet of old, he is most honored and
admired by those who know him best.
From the standpoint of the success of
the party in Missouri we ask all Dem
ocrats to consider his candidacy, for
if nominated, he can and will be elect
