Recent research indicates precooking

Broody hens should be removed from
the flock as soon astheyshow sign Of
brodiness. Setting hens keep other
hens from nests and, therefore, cause a
crowded nesting condition. Eggs may be
broken in nests by other hens trying
TO use the same nest with a setter.
Broody hens may also keep a nest full
Of fresh eggs warm all day, thus caus-
ing them to lose market and Matching
quality.
A hen usually stops laying eggs as
soon as she starts trying to set. But il
steps are Immediately taken to break
her from setting she may be brought
back into production within about two
weeks.
Every farm keeping poultry should
have a slat-bottomed coop or wire bot
toned coop in which to place broody
hens. The hens cannt find a lark place
to set in this type coop and will stop
trying to set. They should be ready to
90 back into the flock after 8 days in
the broody coop, and should be back
into production in 2 weeks time.
Broody hens should have plenty Of
water and the same feed as the rest of
the flock while they in the broody coop.
In this way they will not be forced to
undergo a change of ration which might
cause them to delay returning to pro-
d~uction.
A hen should be culled out and placed
on the market if she cannot be broken
from setting, or goes broody two or
three times in succession.
Broody coops may be placed inside
the laying house or outdoors, and should
be located in the shade and should be
constructed with a weather-proof top.
Sides and ends should be Of stats the
same as the bottom.
A broody coop need not be large. One

Hixzoner the Mayor, Butch La Guardia
who is said to have once contributed
the sum of one dollar to the collection
plate, after a particularly dramatic
presentation on the stage. This unique
theatrical enterprise is the Davenport
Theater at 1873 East 9th Street and its
orchestra has seats for 225 persons.
Founded in 1915 by its present owner
and operator, Butler Davenport, an
erstwhile Shakesperian actor who play
ed the title role in Hamlet" In the
early 19O0's, the place became known as
"the peoples theater" because Of its
absence of formal admission price. The
actors comprise a professional stock
company of IL who get no pay for their
services except a portion Of the dona-
tons. The belief of the founder and his
associates is that good drama should be
, available to all, just as fine art and mu-
| sic, without cost. So they operate this
little theater where one, IL he has no
money at all, can come and see a play
just the same. The average play in the
Davenport Theater runs about three
weeks. Opening night for a new play
is quite an event and those who sit up
front on those nights, usually give a
dollar each so that afterwards they are
invited up on the stage after The per-
Torrance, where they meet Mr.. Daven-
port and his actors and share with them
cookies and tea.
