Like all other young life, chickens, or “baby chicks, ’’ need great care, as I heir young lives are easily snuffed out.

attempt to bring incubator clucks to liie eating or egg-laying stage. For those who have incubators, the first step is to get fertile eggs, preferably from purebred hens. These eggs should not be more than ten days old, should have been kept in an even tern perature —about 50 degrees, and should be uniform in size, with smooth, clean shells. The Incubator should be run several days before the eggs are placed in it to prove that It can maintain an even temperature. After the eggs are on the trays the temperature the first few days should be 102, after that 103 until the chicks break through f > :• tX-J ? I I ■j [ § K t J g a-J i I. > I Ji# J —^-4-^r t— " ~ their shells. Eggs, of course, should be turned every day, and at the same time allowed to cool somewhat. From the seventh to the tenth days they should be tested; those that are infertile should be thrown out as well as those in which the germ has died. The latter, especially, should be taken out, as they will spoil and destroy the fertile eggs. Proper moisture In the Incubator is another Important point. The chicks appear on the twentieth i.r twenty-first day, and it is best to . i.e them in lite Incubator for 48

hears. If they are taken out they thuuld not be fed, us for the first two' days the yolk of the egg In the dlges ' five tract suppliex all the nourtahiuent I they need. It la after the chicles are hatched 1 j thus they need constant watching for| several du vs. for such a little thing a* a draft striking them will kill a whole flock Curing the night, for Instance. When the chicks are taken from the Incubator they should be placed in what Is called a brooder house, a good example <>f which la shown in the illustration. The brooder house proper ■ the part shown on the floor plan H feet square— contains the heater and the self feeder. The shed part is to give the chicks a chance to get away frunj the heat, just as they leave the mother hen, and get feed and exercise. This building is constructed weather tight; at the same time there are win dows to provide ventilation. Care should be exercised, however, that there are no drafts. A constant temperature, rather high, should be maintained under the hover, which should be large enough so that the chicks do not have to crowd. The chicks will get out from under for a , time, and as they get cool seek Its ! shelter again. During tlie first few days the chicks should be ted five or six times a day on chi<k feed or buttermilk mash, through a drinking fountain, which I may be a bottle turned bottom side up in a dish with one edge slightly raised Iso the liquid cun seep out; clean water

or, better still, sour milk should oe available to them at all times. The floor of the brooder house should be covered with clean sand covered with a little of chopped straw, or chaff. At one end. farthest from the brooder stove, there should be sprouted oats or some other green stuff. Oats are best because the chicks have to pull it, and therefore do not get too much. The floor plan of the building gives a good idea of Its conatruction. It Is of frame, the materials for which cun be secured at any lumber yard, and any man or boy handy with tools can construct it. It may be mounted on skids, or rather heavy timbers so that it can be hauled from place to place as the chicks need new forage space. The end of the shed Is open, or may have a hinged door. LONELIEST PLACE ON EARTH According to Thia, It Is New York City, Where One Does Not Know Hie Neighbor. A common complaint against New York Is that It Is the loneliest place In the world except, perhaps, some other great city. One may live.here a lifetime and not become acquainted with the next-door or upstairs or downstairs neighbor. That is what made It so difficult for the police to get at the bottom of such a murder case as the Dorothy King affair in West Fiftyseventh street, writes Raymond G. Carroll to the Philadelphia Ledger. It Is said of the wife of a Columbia university professor on Morningside heights, that sba remarked to her husband one dgy, "Those people nest door are moving," and that he replied: "They have been living there fourteen years. I wonder where they are going?" The wife then remarked: "My goodness! And Tve always Intended calling on them.” Women In New York often make acquaintances on the top of the busses, but more usually through friends their husbands bring from office. Sometimes those picked-up acquaintances lead to sad embarrassments and consequences ; and once caught, twice shy, the victims retreat still further Into obscurity, to feed exclusively on the companionship of relatives and friends from the home town, come to New York for a holiday. Choosing the Lesser Evil. The new arrival In Suburbia sent over to borrow an egg beater, a double boiler and a saucepan. These were cheerfully furnished. An hour later she asked for six soup spoons and a kettle. Those were less cheerfully furnished. When a request came for fish platter and a coffee percolator, the old settler spoke up. "Just tell your mother to send baek my utensils," she directed, “and I'll loan her x. six-course dinner.”
