POULTRY HINTS
: FOR THEFARMER
Size of Incubator Should be
Determined by Needs of
Flock
NO ONE OR
THE BEST SIZE

After the poultryman has made up
his mind to buy an incubator. he is
confronted with the question OF
makes and sizes. Ae a general rule.
a cheap machine is a poor invest
sient. requiring more attention than
q good one and wearing out quicker,
besides being less dependable. The
value OF the machine is small COM
pared with that OF the eggs used
during the normal life OF an incu-
bator. II is poor economy. therefore.
30 buy a machine which is not re-
liable. Whenever possible. it is well
10 select the kind OF incubator that
has given satisfaction in your neigh
borhood, so that you may get the
benefit OF the experience OF other
operators nearby.
The best size OF incubator to buy
Varies with numerous circumstances.
say poultry specialists OF the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
About as much is required to care
ANA n w aN ANA a. "NN"'kn nANAAAAAAN q
Il is usually adviable to get one of
al least 150-egg capacity. Special
conditions, though. often exist which
make smaller machines valuable.
A small machine is often used in
connection with a larger one. all
eggs being placed in the large ma
chine after the first or second test.
Many poultrymen believe that II
pays to have an incubator large
enough to hatch the bulk OF their
stock in two or three matches. so that
much time is saved in tending TO the
incubators and brooders. In addi-
tion. the chickens are more uniform
in size than those patched when tho
incubating period extends over q
longer time
A fair estimate for a poultry farm
Is an incubator OF one-egg capacity
pcr hen. provided that about one
half OF the flock is TO be renewed
searly and no outside Matching IL
carried on. Tho larger machines
cost less in proportion 10 their ca
pacity than the smaller ones.
Incubators are operated in a grea
variety OF places with success. Wher'
only a few small machines are used
they are usually located in a room
of the cellar OF the house. A specia
cellar or incubator house should b.
crowded IL the incubator equipmen
is extensive or II mammoth ma
chimes are used. II is important q
have a well-ventilated room not sub
ject to wide Variations OF tempera
lure. II built above ground, the wall
should be double and the entir
building we'll insulated.
Good results in Matching are Sc
cured in incubator cellars and in in
-cubator rooms entirely above groun
level. but the cellar Is more com
monty used. Incubators may be oper
ate din buildings with single WALL
especially in regions which have
mild climate, but a well-insulate
room is preferable.
The incubator room or celia
should be large enough to allow tn
attendant to work around the ma
chimes conveniently. Many incubato
cellars are provided with some sys
tom Of ventilation, in addition TO tn
windows. This is not always neces
s,ary, however. The chief point is I
keep the air in the room fresh. Mus
lin screens on the windows provid
-vood ventilation without draft an
at the same time keep the sun fror
shining on the machines. Many in
-rubator cellars have cement floor
which are easier than dirt floors I
keep clean and neat.

has wanted for some years. II is
a good and fair one and gives the
farmer an equal opportunity to share
In any advance in the price OF sugar
as well as paying him more when
his beets run high in sugar content.
He also is protected against any Sc,

the advance payment for II sugar
should drop as low as 5000 he gets
the payment Of $3.50 per ton for beets
and If sugar drops to $500 or $500
he still gets that amount for his
beets.
A mighty big factor in re-estab-
fishing of normal conditions will be
thoroughly dependable market for
our crops. We need wide diversity
| OF production and definite system
OF crop rotation. There is probably
no other crop that will fit into these
requirements to better advantage
than sugar beets. AS root crop II
takes fundamental place In crop
rotation. Its feeding habits and re-
quirements are materially different
from those of hay and grain. Beet
farmers making use Of pulp, tops, and
syrup for feeding live stock on the
farm return to the soil most elements
OF fertility that have come from IL,
since the sugar in the beet Is not
being shipped away as Is the case
when we sell our hay and grain.
The fact that sugar bects are a
rowed crop and must have clean Gull
tivation makes II particularly valu,
able in the control OF weeds. Much
Of the irrigation required for the
beets comes at time when the rush
season for irrigation OF many crops
Is over.
What the price of beets Is to be
no one knows. We do know, how.
ever. that We have a good contract.
Our beet farmers will receive more
for beets as sugar advances. With
the canning season approaching. the
proposed additional tariff on sugar
and the prevailing worlds shortage
Of sugar there is every reason to be-
lieye that sugar viii continue to adj
vance and We will receive our share
OF the increase. And so, from any
standpoint It should be considered as
an advantage to ourselves. to our
town and to our community to grow
Sugar Beeis and to keep in mind that
the better beets we grow, the higher
the price we get.
Yours truly.

FARMERS ATTENTION

To those farmers in our section,
who have not yet determined upon
the crops to plant this year and also
who have decided but have not in
cluded Sugar Beets, let me say a
word Every one will remember the
value of the beet crop to the country
last year Let us not forget that
practically the only crop that we real
lied full value on. was the Sugar
Beet crop. In Utah county alone the
Utah Idaho Sugar Company disbursed
upward Of $4.500.000 without this
cash payment last fall very serious
fir ancial reverses would have been
suffered by a large number OF resi-
dents Of this county. As II was the
beet money came at a time when
ready cash was badly needed for tax,
es, interest. and many other fall OBJ
legations. and proved veritable meal
ticket to many of our farmers, as
well as being OF inestimable benefit
TO the community generally The
great value of the millions of money
distributed by the sugar companies in
Utah. Idaho and Washington is apt to
be lost sight OF by those who did not
share directly in the payments. But
all farmers who planted beets, all
merchants and all bankers feel the
true Importance of these cash dis
bursements.
One reads in the papers at present
about low prices for farm products
and the consequent hardships upon
the farmers But the Sugar Beet far
mer throughout these parts has suf-
fered less than his fellows, and has
possessed ready cash to meet obi
cations, whereas his neighboring non
beet grower has had TO borrow for
the same purpose and often was I'M
able to do so. At the banks the beet
farmer has paid his note. paid his
taxes, paid his butcher, baker and
candlestick-maker" while the man
who had no beet check has often
been forced to ask for additional Gre
DIT and extension OF his loans at the
bank.
We are fortunate In having four
Sugar Factories In Utah County.
From any point of view their exist
ence here is OF great value to the
whole community and every citizen
OF the county should do his best to
see that the raw material Sugar
BeetS) needed to run these mills, is
furnished them. II Is estimated that
they have a combined capacity of
close to 1900 tons OF beets daily, so
you can readily see that they will re-
quire all we can give them. The av-
erage tonnage yield for Utah last
year was the largest in the United
States. II was 1895 tons per acre
while the average yield for the whole
United States was only 969 tons.
Sugar beets improve your farm by
requiring intensive cultivation. They
are sold at planting time that is.
they are a contract crop. This fact
III sures sure and certain market
for all the beets you can plant. and
guarantees YOU against losses such
as you sustained last year when the
prices OF other crops slumped. This
year the beet contract is on a slid
ing scale with minimum advance
payment OF $3.50 per ton guaranteed.
This Is a contract that the farmer

 There has never been a time in the history of Birmingham when everyone, old and young, was join Ing in this fascinating diversion as universally as now.
 Perhaps 1t Is because of the many attractive pools within the city or Is 1t because 1t is just so hot that they flock to the waterf
 Hundreds of people are seen each afternoon and evening in the differ ent pools, and the many bright-coI- ored bathing suits. which are un- usually gay this year, add variety and charm to the soene.
 Parties are being stvon for vis- ttors every day and many are taking Advantage of the municipal pool at Ensley as well as at Roebuck Golf club, East Lake, West Lake. North Birmingham and Edgewood. All of these places have been remodeled and are more attractive than evor before.
 Swimming is a game, which, fflre all others. must be played with cour- age, honor and invincible detormf- nation. Everybody can learn. It is just a question of getting started right and then persevering.
 A It seems surprising to know that women as & usual thing learn vary quickly, while men take longer.
 The first thing to be gotten into khe mind is that water is not such e fearful thing after all. It is tho hest all-round exercise for the hu- man body and people are marvel ously rejuvenated by the exertion and the consequent relaxation Of the mind.
