Incubators Used in
Conserving Mass.
Game for People

-Marshfield, Mass. June 9.--Incuba-
tors are being used by the division of
Fisheries and game of the state de-
partment of conservation to provide
sport for the hunters and food for the
people.
On a farm here pheasants, which in
recent years have been growing scarce,
have been Matched in large numbers
By machine and are being cared for in
steam heated breeders until they are
strong enough to shift for themselves.
Then they will be turned loose in va
rious sections of the state.
Experiments to ascertain the FEAST
bility of raising pheasants by artificial
the past two years and this year the
work was started in earnest About
1900 eggs, some obtained from the sta
tons brood stock and others from
private dealers. were placed in the
| incubators at various intervals. In
the course of time 1889 chicks were
Matched and transferred to breeders.
AS they gain strength they are grad
ually moved from one house to an
other, of lower tempera ture until final
ly they reach pen without any arti-
fetal heat.
To overcome the familiarity with
human beings developed during the
! 10 days or two weeks in the brooding
houses the last pen is trimmed thickly
with small trees and heaps of boughs
to provide hiding places. On being in
troduced into ffis pen. officers say,
the young birds show no inclina tfon
whatever to take to the underbrush.
but after few days they learn 10
work their way into the brush, to
take cover when startled and to roost
at night. AboSt five weeks is required
for the birds to become properly
feathered ready to take their chances
in the woods against hunters
| The stocking of the woods together
| with the natural spread of the bird in
q few years. officials believe, will go a
! long way toward meeting the shortage
IF fowl for human consumption in
this state. 1t is estimated that ship
, pers in the south and west now send
s"o,oon.oo0 worth of poultry into Mas
sachusetts annually.

that daily diet of dandelion leaves

THE INVASION OF GERMANY

The advance of the allied army into
Germany for the purpose Of COM
polling an understanding with Ger
many with reference to the indemnity
to be paid is not only right, but an
absolute necessity. If Germany mana
ges to escape the payment of sub
stantiaIly the amount fixed by the
allies. she shall have in large sense
won the war. If the material damage
done to France is not paid by Ger
many, France will be by far worse
off than Germany. If the allied coun-
tries are unable to collect the indem-
nifty from Germany, it is certain that
the United States will never collect
the billions loaned to the allies in H.
nancing the war. When America en-
tered the war, Germany's fortunes were
at high tide and we all remember with
what glee Americas entrance was
greeted by the arrogant Germans. They
said "now we will get a smashing
indemnity" and continued their ruth
less campaigns. If Germany had won
the war, our grand children would
have to help pay the staggering in
.demnity that she would have demand
ed. The United States undoubtedly
would have been stripped of every
outlying possession and it's future
mortgaged to an extent almost I'M
bearable. How much sympathy then
can be felt for the President of the
German republic when he says:
. Nevertheless, we can cry out, so
all who still recognize the voice of
righteousness may hear"
Fright is being down-trodden by
might"

4 GRAND TRIBUTE TO WILSON
(From the Chicago Tribune)

(From the Chicago Trlbune)
Our chief admiration for Mr. Wilson is for the man
ner in which de drove the activities once we were
committed That determination evolved from ms
character He used CONSUMPTION. He furnished the
allies with what they needed-men, money and materials
in the amounts needed. .r- s-,r
Weakness at this time might have ruined u.s.
man less determined to have his way less mperVlous
to what was said of him. might have fnched at conscrp
ing soldiers He might have tried to fight the war with
volunteers He might even have tried to fight it with
money and materials He might have tried to spare the
nation human sacrifices to limit the expenditure OF
human life.
Then we should have entered a losing and have
been among the losers just time to be in the wreckage
CONSUMPTION was his big decision and whether he realized
it or not was his most dangerous Hughes might
have had serious draft riots From Wilson the people
took the draft with hardly nurmur, and the war was
won right them
The president did not allow the people to draw back
from a drop in the cup. He took their money. He
spent it without thought for the waste of it. There
had to be waste He put the United States behind the
allies with promise of the last and the last dollar
It required courage intelligence and character and all the
ruggedness and wilfulness of Mr. Wilson's temperament
served the country it needed to be served.
These the high moments of his career. He
sent 100000 to France before the astonshed Ger
thought that it possible to do He had g.
O0O0 600 in American training and being
drafted. Them also, from the White House came the
thunders Of rhetoric which Supplied the German people
behind their armies and dntegrated them in the of
their fighting forces. AS American divisions put the
German divisions Mr. Wilson's words destroyed
the morale of the German people who had been steadas
and the
