OLD MILL IN PREBLE IS NOW j BIG CHICK FARM 1 . " - ., More Than 3,000 Downy ; Scions of Pure Breed Sold in One Day. ; By WILLIAM ft. SANBORN. If you really- believe that - there -is money in chickens, and that ten acres and two thousand birds make a most - desirable combination, take a day off and visit the Old Woolen Mill, about a mile and a half south of West Alexandria, Ohio. That visit will afford i pleasurable experience and moreover, will also confirm your faith. Doubtless the old- mill presented many a busy scene' in Its day, but surely never-such a lively and attractive end as that .old building and its shaded acres, presents to the cHams. visitor.. these summer days. It was a primitive old mill, unknown to the present generation, but famous among the early settlers, and- was doubtless of more real benefit and importance to them: than most factories are to the community in these high pressure times. The main building of the old plant, the tireless little brook that 'enrolled the power, and the forest trees which - beautified the grounds, still' remain the rest is but a memory. The man wh? owns that old mill building haiched about 14.000 chicks in it this spring, and wiiL. double his incubator capacity before the next hatching season: opens. His incubator has a capacity of 3,600 eggs six sections of 600 eggs each, all con- j nected up, and it is so arranged that a single turn , of a .crank turns aU the eggs at the same time. This op eration is the work of one minute or I less, twice in. 24 hours. The heat is generated by kerosene but the brooder section is warmed by coal. His first hatch was taken oft on .March 23rd, and the final hatch for this Season was completed about ten days ago. Sold 3,100 Chicks on Saturday. M. C. Bolton, manager and principal owner of this chicken farm, has been a chicken fancier for some fifteen years. He came to . Preble county from the south three years ago and bought the old woollen mill building, the comfortable residence, and the 12 acres which comprise the estate, aU for $2,500, so he says. He also says that he refused $8,000 for the plant during the past spring, the price including his winter layers. The spot is Ideal for his purpose. It lies along the curve of the road, hidden among the trees, has a brook winding through the grounds, which, are slightly rolling with fine drainage, and affording ample range. Now range is an important feature in chicken culture; it is really vital. It gives the chickens a chance to work for their living, and they surely dott"-6ir the" Bolton and Abraham place. Imagine sixteen hundred 12week old chickens, all as white as i the driven snow, following a man with a, pail of ecratch feed down into thej woods, and through the tangle and grass along the . stream. It was a sight worth seeing. If you are a lover of chickens. And this scratch feed was scattered all through the grass and bushes, over an acre or so of ground, while we watched the birds fly and dive and scratch for it. This is the healthful exercise they need and so far there has not been any chicken diseases to cut down the flock on this well kept place. Had we been a week earlier we could have seen about 3,500 tiny chicks in the brooders but on the day of our visit there wero only about 200 JettV 3.10Q having been sold on the previous Saturday. All Chickens Called For. The most surprising thing told us at this hatchery was that all sales are made "right on the place, and to people who call for the chickens. There must have been a bunch of callers on the day that 3,100 chickens were carted off. The buyers came in wagons, buggies and by auto, many driving long distances to get birds for breed ing flocks. During this entire season but one shipment of birds by mail or express has been made, of the total of over 11,000 6old. The- stock - consists exclusively of pure-blood Single Comb English White Leghorns, bred for laying. These are not quite so heavy a bird as those of the American strains, but they mature early and are bred to lay in Winter, when eggs are worth the most The wintered flock furnished all the eggs needed for hatching 14,000 chicks from March to June, and until the hatching season closed, not a single case of eggs went to market for table use. Now that the season for "setting" is closed the income from eggs will be a large item, there being some 500 layers, perhaps more, still on the place. Mr. Bolton says that he breeds for "utility" rather than for show contests, although many who caU and select from his flocks do so for show purposes, as: well as to obtain birds for high tgg production. Will Hatch 25;000 Chicks, At the beginning of the next hatching season the Bolton incubators will be-Tjf-TOO" egg "capacity, r or double 't that of d3w. present season, . A new ! nesting hoaBe4xl30-, feetwilL. ba added this summer. Including the 1,600 young pullets previously men-

tioned, there are about 2,700 chickens still on the place, and not less than 2,000 birds will be wintered, including some in their third year, kept exclusively for choice incubator egg production. ... The mash rations fed here includes beef scrap, bran, corn meal, ground oats and middlings, fed from selffeeders. In-cold -weather there, is greater need for beef scrap than at this season, and this forms about 20 per cent of the winter ration. Fresh, pure water is in constant supply in the fountains, which are watched and protected from freezing. The incubator plant has two electric alarms which signal the residence should the temperature either rise too high, or fall below the required range for hatching! The chicks are fed sprouted oats from two weeks on and during cold weather the .old .birds are fed steamed oats every second day at noon. : Regardless of the high price of oats this experiment ' has proved profitable in eggs, in the coldest weatheV. - ; The .moral of this ' story is this: If you take good care of your chick

ens, they will take care of you. It is important to get good stock as a foundation, whatever the strain, and to provide clean, comfortable, home like quarters. If you want to breed for winter eggs, well and good. If heavy market stock is what you are af tea, there are a dozen of these strains. . But in any event, proper feeding, and this means a mixed ration ,1s essential to the most profitable results, either as to imeat or eggs, and to early maturity. .

is replacing the satin hat in the cbming fall fashions. Ribbon hats will be good for the late summer. ;As yet the milliners have not received much Df an idea of what will be worn In the fall. Hats for fall wear are going to be all shapes and sizes, and a trifle more expensive, according to the Milinery Traveling Meny who held their sixteenth annual national meeting in Indianapolis this week. Advance models are big and little, and above all artistic. The shapes of hats are going to be more attractive than - -they have ever been and the material must be of the Very best quality. Styles do not remain the same throughout the season. They change often and the traveling salesmen as well as the milliners are kept busy keeping up with the changes. UKRANIANS AT ODESSA.
