he has been visiting, in company with
Clarence A. Day, county agent, the
various groups of orchard men,
members of the Kennebec Farm Bu-
reaua has met with much success in
his endeavors. The meeting of or
chard men which was held Monday

sion and the IA men present are all
intensely interested in the orchard

cussed community problems and
prepared accommodation which
they will present to the members at

other sleds when the accident occur
red. The truck which was going to
the city dump at Royal Park, came
from Water street pu Bond street and
when nearly onto State street, the
driver saw the sleds coming. AS he
was going quite slowly, he stopped
at the right side of the road, think

Moisture and ventilation are closely
related factors in incubation, the
amount of each depending upon the
other. The former is one Of the un-
certain factors, for as yet no very
satisfactory rules have been evolved
which cover all conditions. Good
matches are secured both with and
without using moisture, under appar-
emily similar conditions, while each
operator generally works out by ex-
perience the best amount of moisture
to use under his conditions. The
moisture and ventilation should, with
correct heat, produce d normal chick
ut the end Of the incubation period.
Too much moisture may prevent the
normal evaporation necessary to allow
enough space for the chick to turn in
the egg and break the shell, while too
little moisture may III the chick to.

supplying moisture is to sprinkle or

too much moisture in the incubator
by this method than by putting mois-
ture directly into the egg chamber.
