V ' ' POULTRY NOTES
As has been been seon from the
article on Incubation, and tho eggs
have been selected fruni high lay
ing strains of high vitality birds,
and in good health, tho next step
is brooding. (Don't stumble hero.)
n order and understanding
brooding we should know at what
degree of heut Incubation takes
plnco to the best advantage.
Tho majority of . instruction
books with Incubators of different
makes say to run them at 103 de
grees just above the eggs, but Is
this the degree of heut that Is on
the egg? It Is not, for tho rea
son thut the egg Is about 2 inches
heltiw the thermometer, cuuslug
ti'dilferenuo of' several degrees be
tween tho top and bottom ot tlio
ogg. ' In order to test' this; Idnce
two thermometers' m a room where
there Is a stove, ono at the ceiling
and Ihu other near the floor, then
observe the difference. You may
be .surprised .at the variation be
tween the two thermometers.
So the correct degree' of heat for
incubation Is not 103, but neater
Dill to ion, as there is at least that
much 1 variation.
The next thing to get is thu heut
required for -blooding. ' , '
Where should this beat bo taken?
It should bo at the height of the
chick's head. - -
What dogreo or height shojihl
there be at litis height? ; ( i
6 About luu degrees, but thls c;fn
Im varied, as it Is practically Im
possible to 'Hay, for a person mu.it
Judge from the action of the chicles
as to thu oxact degree, of heat re
quired. The heat should be reduc
ed from 5 to 6 degrees every weeks.
What are it ut the must continue
causes of mortality among chicks?
Overhauling, chilling and crowd
ing. ' . .
What space shou Fd a chick have
under tho brooder, and how would
you fHllmuto the. capacity , oi a
brooder?
An ordinary egg w 111 enver
;E4 square Inches of space. How
much more would you give a
chick?
They should have not less tlm it
0 square Inches to the chick, so a
brooder 2 1 inches square w ould
iiccoinuiodiito about SMi chicks. Hut
what about the chick growing?
If correctly led ami cared lor,
l hey will grow rapidly and soon
become crowded again.
How can this be avoided?

From Oregon
A particularly happy solution of
tho problu mot "what to send tho

Oregon gift boxes which are offer
ed in n number of attraclie com
binations. Such a box, decorative
In itself and beautifully packed,
makes a distinctive and appreciat
ed gift, and Its contents will ap
peal to all the mom hurt- ot tho
lucky family that receives it.
Thero may bo Oregon walnuts,
great kernels Incased In shells so
delicate that they crack in tho
hand; filberts unbelievably hugo
and sweet; it rich round ot cheese,
creamy and delicious; cherries or
"two bito" calibre; rosy tipples- and
waxeu pears; plump prunes, so full
juiced and flavoious that they may
b eeaten raw as a confection, so
iuvitiug is the catalog of products
that are peculiarly Oregon's mid
fo extra good that they carry tho
btiit of luxury suitable to a ChiLtt
uiutt gift.
One of lUo chief deltghtt- iu a
gift Is Its unusualuess, tlmt It
should bo BOiuottuHg out of the

That is part of the charm in iheso
