Incubator Useful
in Matching Geese
Machines Have Gradually
Come Into Use Where
Fowls Are Raised.

For many years after incubators
came into general practice they were
not used for the Matching of geese. but
they have gradually come into use
where geese are raised In large num-
0ers. The general requirements for
successful incubation Of hens eggs are
needed In Matching geese eggs. In
addition the majority of operators be-
lieve that they require more drying
out in the early part Of the hatch and
more cooling than hens eggs.
Required Temperature.
The temperature required does not
need to be so high but no change
needs to be made in this regard If the
eggs are given more cooling During
the last part of the hatch it is gen.
orally necessary to supply moisture.
Some advocate dipping the eggs. others
sprinkling and others supplying the
moisture to the machine. One of the
main reasons for the need of addi-
tiOnal moisture at that time is so that
the shell and membranes will not stick
to the gosling when it is trying'to get
out of the shell.
Some adjustments will need TO be
made in the thermometer as the thick
ness of the geese eggs will place them
higher in the incubator and therefor
in a slightly higher temperature unless
an allowance is made for it. An inch
In height will usually make differ
ence Of degree in the temperature.
Hatch Slow Under Hens.
Goslings will hatch out slower UNI
der hens or In an incubator than under
geese. However, where attention is
paid to proper cooling of the eggs and
proper supply of moisture, there
should he no trouble in getting sue
cessful hatch. The beginner will some
times become uneasy over this delay In
getting out ofAthe shell and attempt
to help the goslings. This should not
be done except In occasional cases
where one or more goslings are much
later than the others in Matching.
Even then extreme care should be
taken in removing the shell bit by bit
and stopping at the least indication of
bleeding. Usually the bird that cannot
get out of the shell is not worth saving
and If the goslings are given plenty
of time and are supplied with mois-
ture so that the material Of the shell
will not stick to the body. the big ma
jority will come out successfully.

to preliminary skirmishes, he has let
himself in for nothing more than
abuse from political sources.
Congressman FurloW, who was
elected to the state legislature in
1923 was the victor last fall in the
contest to succeed Sydney Anderson
of Lanesboro, as representative in
Congress from the First Minnesota
district.
When the proper time arrived,
Senator Furlow was excused by his
colleagues for the balance of the
term, whereupon he went directly to
! Washington to be sworn in as con-
gresham.
AS soon as the session in Washing
ton was ended, the congressman re-
turned to Rochester and was enjoy
ing life in the cold home town" when
he heard cry of distress from num-
Der of economy measures that were
parading in review before tn state
legislature, and since he had once
been elected to economic for the vot-
RS of the Fourth Legislative district
he felt it to be his bounden duty to
''sit in,"I even though to do so would
be gross extravaganza with his own
private funds.
And so he came to st. Paul to work
as state senator without pay. 1t hap
pened that some of the colleagues
who had voted to excuse Congress
man Furlow from further service
were not in favor of letting him cast
a vote upon his return, but Lieuten-
ant Governor w. I. Nolan took the
position that since the people of Ohm
sted county had elected him it would
take more than sixty-six state senat-
ors to take that right away from him.
While on the subject of congress
men, it should be noted here that
Congressman Oscar Keller of this city
is said to be making plans to seek the
position of Register of Deeds to sue
ceed John J. Fitzgerald at the 1926
election.
The salary of a congressman is
$4,000 per year, and that of regist-
er Of deeds is $4,000. Congressman
Keller has figured it out that $4,000
in st. Paul is equal to $4,000 in
Washington. He does not consider
the fun of handling the $4,000
worth anything.
AS soon as the Keller report was
abroad, other reports were born,
among them that Fitzgerald would
run for Keller's job, and that other
candidates would be Mayor Arthur
E. Nelson and Frank Starkey, lab
or member in the state legislature.
This is the third job for which
Congressman Keller is reported to be
angling Previously it has been said
that he would like to be mayor or
sheriff. |xl

need of good will to the man with the
cash.
Just when peace had settled over
official Washington, another investi-
cation into the affairs of the Shipping
Board is in the offing. A row has de-
veloped over the disposition of seven
vessels owned by the Shipping Board
and sold to the Dollar steamship in
terests. The Pacifict Mail company,
also a bidder, has raised the cry of

WASHINGTON LETTER
Especial to Sauk Cenrre Herald)

Washington, April S-If it were
our privilege to read the official mail
of the President of the United States
we would undoubtedly realize the
need of sense of humor. Those who
know Mr.. Coolidge intimately vouch
for the fact that he does possess this
essential qualification. Considering
the history of the last Congress the
White House provides rich soil for
laughter of the President so in
clined.
ators will expire March 4, 1927. This
figure includes 25 Republicans and
seven Democrats. Already there are
many men in public life ambitious for
thes posts. The principal contenders
are now members of the House of
Representatives who desire elevation
to the Senate.
A Senator of the United States is
not elected overnight. Hence, a con-
siderable amount of preliminary or
ganization work is necessary. We
now md congressman canvassing the
local political leaders and writing the
President. In instances where certain
Republican senators have voted
against the wishes of the Administra-
ton, the President finds himself solic-
tied by members of the House who
need his support to win nominations
in their states. 1t is surprising the
number of men reviving an old cam
paign slogan of "Stand by the Presi-
dent who actually believe that the
present incumbent of the White
House and the public at large is i'm
pressed by their cry. AS a rule it is
nothing more than political buncomb
and deceives nobdy familiar with the
facts.
A study of the replies received to
these bids for presidential favor shows
that Mr.. Coolidge is steering clear of
factional fights. 1t is too early in the
season to show any favor for those
seeking public offices. There is a de-
ightful inconsistency as characters
tic of the professional politician re-
vealed in these maneuvers. You will
recall the names of senators who let
it be known in public debates and at
White House breakfasts that they
were the chosen representatives of a
sovereign state and therefore were
independent of the Administration
will in matters of legislation. These
same men returning to their own
states and not so chockfull of conf
-dence, they are now turning to the
White House with alibis for their
votes against the Administrator meas
ures. 1t is case where they expect
to win if their friendship were weigh
ed in words and not in deeds.
Official Washington is manifesting
considerable interest in the forthcom-
ing Jefferson Day dinners. 1t is at
these affairs that the Democratic
leaders assemble to discuss party mat
tiers. According to we'll informed
Democratic leaders, the Madison
SQUARE Garden convention left sharp
differences which must be wiped out
in the interest of parry solidarity. On
ly the spirit of forebearance, the
old game of give and take, can patch |
up factional rifles.
1t seems logical that complete re-
organization of the committees will |
be brought as the campaigns for con-
gressional office approach. With a
complete turnover in the House and |
a third of the Senate up for re-elec-
tion two years hence, the Democrats |
have an excellent chance in the COM

HOOVER GIVES
PRICE FIXING
inside STORY
Wartime Wheat Figure Was
Fixed by Allies, Secre-
tary Declares.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1Z.-Her-
bert Hoover, Secretary Of Commerce.
broke an eight-year silence today
with the inside story of the fixing Of
the price of wheat at $3.50 a bushel
during the war.
The tale, unfolded in a foreword to
a final report on the activities of the
United States Grain Corporation, dis
closes that the allies had combined
in 1917 to buy wheat from American
farmers at not more than $3.50
bushel and that instead Of being de-
prived of huge profits by the Govern
ment Intervention. as the farmers
have believed, they actually were
saved from complete disaster"
which menaced them. unsuspecting
Of the allies agreement.
The report sets forth that Hoover
had no part in fixing the price what
ever, but that committee appoint
ed by President Wilson arrived at
the 1920 figure without suggestion
or help from him.
Hoover said the allies bid against
each other for American wheat un-
til the price was SO at Chicago, dur
ing the first three years of the war.
but the agreement voided the law of
supply and demand and that the
fixed figure therefore made the farm
ers of the Nation at least 20 cents
more a bushel than they otherwise
would have received.

HEAVY buying
BOOSTS wheat
No Crop News and Pro-

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Aug. 12.-Heavy buy
ing boosted wheat on the Chicago
Board of Trade today. The strength

September wheat gained Az cents
compared with the previous close of
$1.60A. December wheat gained 3
cents, closing at S1.62 and May
wheat was up 32Ss cents.
Professionals controlled the wheat
pit in spite of the fact there was no
crop news to influence buying. They
started out by boosting prices sub
stantially. A few crop complaints
from the spring belt and unexpected
strength in Liverpool furnished the
inspiration for spirited buying. At
the top, Eastern sales for profits
brought in overwhelming bear in
fluence and subsequent drop. On
the dip commission houses and
shorts absorbed offers freely caus
ing a late reaction to new high
figures.
Corn moved upward in the face of
better crop news from the drouth
stricken areas. Shorts covered free
ly.' Oats lacked individuality. Pro
visions lost a few points in late
realizing
