!. HERE'S LATEST TALE
OF WOLF AND LAMB
From the New York Tribune1

In
Here is the latest version Of the
tale of the Wolf and the Lamb:
Taking advantage of the universal
disorder the wolf one day left the
woods. He met lamb that quietly
grazed in the meadow.
I'm going to eat you, he said sim
ply. mo use asking explanations. l
don't do it out of malice or vengence.
] am wolf. thou art a lamb; that suf-
fees
The lamb asked for five minutes re-
spite and ran straight to the seat Of
the Society for the Protection of An
finals, where it made known its case.
I'VE are here" they answered, ito pro-
tect the animals from men. and not
from other animals. If the wolf wants
to eat you nothing can be done. 1t is
the law"
Filled with despair, the lamb return
ed to its doom. On the way it met an
old he-goat who, on learning the lambs
misfortune, was seizel with great
pity.
He took it to his house and powdered
its fleece all over with pepper until
the white lamb had turned black
60 now" said the old goat, and
don't be afraid"
THE wolf waited, full of confidence.
1t was difficult for him to recognize
the lamb, but he snapped at it all the
same. Immediately he choked and his
eyes filled with tars.
go off" he said, releasing his
} prey. There is no longer justice in
the world. 1t is the end of every
thing
And, with his tail lowered, he went
back TO the woods.
What does the fable teach? The
answer may be suggested by the cir
cumstances> that this version appears
in a Bulgarian paper-and Bulgaria
is supposed to have a narrow escape
from being despoiled by Greece.

wrote: Bone of our bone and flesh

existence in any form is better than
non-eXistence, they ever rescued tri-
umphantly from the jaws of ever-im-

which thanks to them, now lights the
world for US.
How small indeed seem individual
distinctions when we look back on
these overwhelming numbers of hui

And how inessential in the seyes of

reared by artificial methods. The
former have certain advantages in
the matter of diet, however. A small
flock cf roomy range, accompanied
by watchful, hustling hen, will pick
up natural food in great abundance.
This food supply divided among a
great many youngsters would not 60
far but is great addition to the
ration of few. Bugs, worms, green
stuffs of various kinds eli go toward
making 4 splendid growing ration.
Each little family should have a
home Ct its own. The broad coops
should be so constructed as to al
lew ample floor space, protect the
brood against weather and natural
enemies, admit air and sunshine and
he easy to clean. The exact shape
and construction matter little provid-
cd these very practical requirements
ere met. A sturdy packing box COW
cred with roofing material or tai
Paper, will serve admirably.
1 wish to lay special emphasis
upon the necessity of making these
brood coops roomy. Perhaps the
most common mistake in connection
with the rearing of chicks by hen
rover is thesuse of improper coops
and especially in the matter of their
size. ChiSks are worth too much tc
sacrifice through overcrowdilg in the
inexpensive coops.
A box eighteen inches square will
provide enough space for sleeping
quarters, but it is too snail t. permit
the flock to be comfortable during
stormy days when the youngsters
must remain under cover. It not in
frequently happens that spells Of bad
weather keep the youngsters under
cover for several days at time
Then one instantly recognizes the neeo

much injury as result of confine'
ment in small space.

kind which makes the difference be-
tween inferior chicks and mighty
good ones.
Have openings in the coops Sc pro-
tected that rats, cats anG other ene'
mics cannot attack the little families
Then see to it that everything is
properly closed up every night.
While it is highly desirable that the
mother hens be permitted to rangs
with their broods after the chicks are
some two weeks of age, l prefer to

turn them to the laying flock at once.
On the other hand, quiet hens hav-
ing the brooding fever well developed
will usually accept and mother newly
hatched chicks which ere not their
own. Buyers of small lots of ready
made baby chicks often give these
to such hens instead of placing them
under hovers. 1t is not usually safe
Ilan to merely put hens and chicks
in coop together without pre-
liminary test to ascertain whether
the combination will work. If the
broody hen is permitted to remain
on her nest and two or three chicks
slipped under her, she may be fooled
into thinking she is responsible for
a family and accept the whole brood
without further question.
From a dozen to eighteen chicks
may be given to each hen according
to her size and the season Of the
year. Fifteen makes very good
number under average. conditions.
The range or yard used by the
growing chicks should be as large as
possible and not too thickly populat-
ed. One great advantage enjoyed by
henreared chicks is the freedom they
have, the absence of crowding which
always accompanies the keeping OF
large numbers of chicks in one brood.
The backyard poultryman is often
compelled, because of lack of space, to
keep his chicks rather closely con-
fined. 1t then becomes necessary to
adopt some plan to prevent the soil
from becoming filthy and contamin-
ated. Frequent stirring or cultivation
of the soil, with spade or wheel
hoe, will bury the accumulated drop
pings and bring fresh earth to the
surface. The growing of grass stuff
will serve the double purpose of puri-
flying the soil and providing needed
food. Even in very small yards lit
tie patches of grass, clover, ETC., may
be started under wire-covered frames
and the latter removed when the
plants are we'll established.
Shade is most essential. 1t is diff
cult to grow really good chicks in
bare, sm-baked yards. Low trees
and brushes, patches of growing corn,
anything which will permit the chicks
to avoid the suns rays during the
keat of the day will serve the pur-
pose. In my own work l frequently
throw piles of brush in open spots,
then plant pumpkin or squash seeds
about the pile. The heavy vines soon
cover the brush pile and safe, shady
retreat is thus provided. In extreme
cases, little tents or shelters Of cot
ton cloth or burlap may be used.
Accepted methods of chick feeding
have previously been presented in
this colur.n. These apply to hen
brooded chicks as well as 70 those

Managing the Hen and Her Brood.
(By Prof. Frederic H. Stolneburn,
poultry editor of The World)

While millions upon millions OF
chicks are Matched and reared annual

DDS, the coed old broody hen has not
lyet lost her job. She is still a neces-
sity to that vast number Of poultry
men who are not so situated as to
enable them to proftably make a
tremendously important factor in the
poultry industry, is doing great
work in keeping up the supply OF lay
ing pullets and market poultry.
Mankind hes been caring for moth
er hens and their broods for untold
centuries. One would think that as
a result of the knowledge and ex-
perience thus gained almost everyone
would instinctively give their hens
proper care during these busy weeks
when families are being reared. And
vet beginners in poultry keeping as
well as many of those who have had
considerable experience go right along
making costly mistakes, sacrificing
vast numbers Of helpless chicks to
ignorance and negligence.
1t is not a difficult matter to so
manage hens as to bring through to
maturity a very large proportion OF
the chicks entrusted to their care.
There is of course a certain percent
age of mortality; some chicks will be
lost under the very best of conditions.
But this loss can be kept mighty low
if the poultryman will only use a
bit of patience and common sense
will adopt measures calculated to
avoid the usual dangers incident to
chickenhood and provide those things
and favorable conditions which make
for health, comfort and safety.
The mother hens should be selected
with care. The clumsy, cross, quar-
,elsome, nervous individuals are not
suited to the task of properly caring
for the growing youngsters. Quiet
motherly hens, in good flesh, are
much easier to manage ard pleasant
er to work with and they also give
their babies better care. know OF
