THE ENGINE
BEARINGS.

Faulty oiling and Abnormal Working
Pressure Loosen Up Bearings.
1t is noticeable that the bearings
of certain engine may require no at
tention for couple of seasons, while
those of another engine, of the same
make and model, but in other hands,
may require readjustment more than
once within year. Conncctingrod
and bearing wear are matters to
a considerable extent within the con-
troll of the operator and the follow
ing suggestions pertain to precautions
which tend to reduce these evils. Use
nothing but oil of sufficient body,
which is capable of retaining its lub-
rcating power even when normally
thinned by heat. In case, of doubt,
use an oil little heavier than re-
quired, rather than one that is some
what too light. Use high grade oil,
the product of reputable refiner
rather than an anonymous article.
Change the oil in the crank-casc
little oftener rather than less often
than is recommended by the maker of
your car and do not neglect to
thoroughly clean the crank-case and
moving parts of deposited dirt, every
few times that the oil is changed; for
gritty particles. if present in the sys-
TEN, will be circulated by the fresh
oil and cut the bearing surfaces.
Never, on any account allow the oil
supply to run low, or operate the en-
gine at all, when the oil gage fails
to indicate pressure. Do not let an
engine overhead from lack of water,
for this may thin even the best oil
beyond the point at which it can lnb-
ncate. Above almost everything else
avoid trying to climb impossible hills
on high gear or doing any similar
"stunt" that causes an engine to
slow down. undcr full throttle. so
that it is barely "chugging" over
This laboring is awfully severe on
bearings and it can be eliminated by
changing gears in timely manner.
High gear exploits may be pleasing,
but they arc expensive. Do not run
an engine in such a carbonizcd con-
diticn that it knocks distrcssinCly,
when the throttle is opened, for every
ono of the knocks does its part to
ward pounding the bearings ont. It
is cheaper and moro satisfactory, in
tho end, to have the engine decarbon-
lied, rs soon as it needs il. Be
careful not to keep the spark too far
advanced, when an engine is pulling
hard, do not run any further than
necessary, with "missing' cylinder
and never race an engine for
more than second or two at time.

ment of Agriculture.)
Chicken hens and incubators can be
and often are used successfully for
Matching turkey eggs, but the surest
means, United States Department of
Agriculture poultry specialists say, is
to use the turkey hen and give her
proper management. Turkey hens are
close sitters and will cover, so there
will be no danger Of chilling, from 15
to Is eggs, depending on the size of
the hen.
Nests fer setting turkey and chick
en- hens are best made on the ground
by following out a little earth, so that
the center is deep enough to keep the
eggs from rolling out of the nest, A
thin covering of clean straw or hay
can then be used to prevent the eggs
from being directly on the ground,
and large, roomy coop should be
placed over the nest to keep the hen
from being disturbed. When q num-
Der of hens are to be set. long row
of nests can easily be made on the
viii OpuAu
partitions If this Is done care must
be taken to see that when the hens
come off the nests each returns to the
right one instead of crOwding into a
nest with another hen and leaving
some of the eggs to become chilled.
With only few hens it is better to
set them some distance apart, as they
will then require less attention.
When a Hens in Earnest.
When hen becomes broody and
shows that she is earnest by remain
ing on her nest for two or three
nights, she may safely be trusted with
the eggs, provided she is allowed to
sit In that nest. If she is to be set in
another nest, as is usually the case,
then she should be removed to the
new nest. preferably after dark, given
few nest eggs, and shut in to pre-
vent her from returning to the old
one. If she sits quietly on the nest
eggs she should be taken off on the
evening of the following day, and the
eggs to be incubated placed in the
nest. On being freed, she probably
will return to her old nest; if so, shs
should be carried back and set quiet

off she returns to the new nest rather
than to the old one. 1t sometimes
takes only two or three days, and sell
dom more than week, to break a
hen from returning to her old nest.
Turkey hens do not ordinarily come
off for feed and water more than once
every two or three days, but when
confined they should have a chance TO
come off every day. Occasionally
turkey hen does not come off at all,
and in such case she should be taken
of once a day, as otherwise she will
die on the nest.
On coming off her nest the first
thing a turkey hen does is to stretch
her wings, step gingerly for few
steps. and then she often takes a
running start and flies for short dis
tance. Exercise of this sort helps
greatly to keep a sitting hen in good
condition. and for this reason it is not
we'll to confine her to a small space.
A dust bath is greatly enjoyed by sit
ting hens, and helps to keep them
free from vermin. Whole corn is
good feed, and fresh water and grit
should always be accessible.
Lice are a great annoyance to sit
ting hens, and are one of the worst
enemies of young poults. To prevent
their getting start, the hen should
be busted thoroughly with sodium
fluoride or some good lice powder be-
fore she is placed on the nest The
nesting material should be kept clean,
and if the eggs become dirty they
should be washed with soft cloth
dipped in lukewarm water. Just be-
fore the poults are to hatch, the old
nesting material should be replaced
with clean straw.
Incubation Period.
The incubation period of turkey
eggs is % days. The first egg is usual
ly pipped during the first part of the
twenty-seventh day, the first poult
hatched by the middle of that day,
and the hatch completed at the end
of 2S days. although in extreme cases
Ill the poults are not hatched before
he end of 80 days. Turkey eggs are
ested for fertility and for dead
.erms. MS a rule, on the tenth anf

Beiliss, whose trial at Kieff eight

their natural development which
environment and the regulations
OF society impose upon it's individ-
uals. Their unrest he finds to be
due simply to maladjustment be-
tween human nature and a care
lessiy ordered world which unrest
is closely akin to that of a discon-
tented business man or an unhao-
py wife. The main difference be-
ing that the laborer has not been
studied as sympathetically upon a

Professor Parker was melted to

of the Wheatland strike in Cali

occurred and shows the conditions
to be common to camps that &c
commodate only transitory labor.
He follows these same casuals to
