POULTRY NOTES
It is not generally known that
the practice of artificial Incuba
tion and brooding of chickens Is
two thousand years old, yet It Is a
practice that was" followed by the
ancient Egyptians. And yet, how
different today from what it was
before the dawn of the Christian
era. At that time, fires were built
in ovens, and attendants were in
the egg chambers constantly, and
Judged the temperature by the
heat on their bodies.
Today we have thermometers
and thermostats to control the
heat and devices to regulate the
moisture In the egg chambers.
It Is a practice of some hatcher
ies to run the heat in the egg
chamber 1 or 2 degrees higher
than normal, that the time of In
cubation may he shortened, thus
Increasing their hatching capacity.
Hut this is very apt to weaken
tne chix, and will cnuse trouble to
the one who buys them.
Another thing to bo guarded
against Is disease in the flock
from which the eggs are produced.
Again are the breeders of good
type? Arc they high production
hens? Or. what assurance has the
person who buys the chix that
they aro good?
There are only three ways to
know this. .
If vou are an exceptionally
good poultrvman, you can go out j
among the flocks and see them j
and select those that you wish to
buy from. But this is rather an
expensive metho.1. which brln::s !
the cost of the chix rather hi'-'Tl. TT (
loss of time and cost of traveling j
Is charged against tnem.
Another methoi is to buy chix
from an accredited flock. Chix
from accredited flocks should all I
be good. j
Oregon papsed a law which went !
Into effect August. 1927. which j
prohibits the shipping of chix from
any other state into Ortgen. un-i
less thev nre front accredited or .
It. V. li. tested flocks. This law
should protect the poultryman to
some extent. j
The third ana perhaps the best
methoi is to buy from your local
ityfrom a reliable hatchery, ot
wbich inere are several In Douglas
county.
This Inw, which went into effect
Auuust, lft-7. will very likely bar
quite a number of California chix
from 'shipioMit into Oregon, but if
the hens are not goou enough to
be accredited it Is better to Keep
the chix out.
There is apt to be a shortage of
chix this season, and pome pnuitrv
men may not be aole to get the
dates they wish.

But a cuil never pays."

I STATE PRESS I
I ' ' " COMMENT ;
:
Just As Sweet
If the Oregon Aggies want to be
called the Oregon tSaters, it's all
right with us. It has been our ob
servation that of late years the
title "agricultural college" didn't
mean very much. It has been con
venient nt lobbying time to liavs
the agricultural hypothe&is as aq
appeal to farmer sentiment, but
the fact is that ,0. A. C. has out-.
grown its prospectus nnd become,
in reality a technnology institute
Oregon Tech might be more appro
priate than Oregon State, but If
State is what they want, why a
rose by any other name is just as
sweet.
The movement, however, should
draw attention to the fact that the
Btate of Oregon Is fast approaching
tho time when it will have to de
cide on a major nnd minor policy
In higher education. If It is going
to have a university which will
place tho state in line with the
rival states of California and
Washington, it will have to start
concentrating and stop wasting
money and effort.
There is room for a good techni
cal college in thta state alongside
a great university. There is not
room for two crazyquilt institu
tions, one of which is a lopsided
technical school and the other a
bobtailed university and neither of
which has strength enough to win
for the state of Oregon proper rec
ognition in Its clasp.
It is time for the alumni and
friends of both schools to stop nurs
ing silly jealousies and get down
to the building up of each schoeff
in Its proper scope. O. A. C. (or 1
d. nas plenty to uo in oununig
up its vocational departments with
out trying to spreadeagle over the
entire realm of knowledge, and the
university has plenty to do without
worrying about any stray bits of
culture O. A. C. (or O. S. C.) may
grab off. They may need it
The "University of Oregon's de
cision to kep out of the name
changing controversy if sensible.
Governor Patterson can save valu
able time by not investigating the
name change but helping the Ag
gies get any title that will make
them feel better about it Oregon's
educational program not the Bub-
heads, is important. Eugene
