An incubator may also be used to keep the earliest hatched chickens warm, in case they are removed from the nest. If the eggs hatch unevenly, those which are slow in hatching may be placed under other hens, as hens often get restless after a part of the chickens are out, allowing the re maining eggs to become cooled at the very time when steady heat is neces sary. Remove tho egg shells nnd any eggs which have not hatched as soon ns the hatching is over. Hens should be feed as soon ns possible after the eggs are hatched, as feeding tends to keep them quiet; otherwise many hens will leave the nest.

Brood coops should be moved weekly to fresh ground, preferably where there is new grass. Shade is very essential in rearing chickens, especially during warm weather; therefore, tho coops should be placed in the shade when ever possible. A cornfield makes fine range for young chickens, as owing to cultivation of the ground, they get many bugs and worms nnd have fresh soil to (run on most of the time and enjoy abundant shade. All the chickens should be toe punched or marked before they are transferred to tho brooder or brood coop, so that their ages and breeding readily can be determined after they are matured. Farmers frequently keep old hens on their farms and kill the younger hens and pullets, because they are unable to distinguish between them after the pullets have matured. haul for unless one had teams to them.

This is good advice, especially when bilious or con stipated. You will find mnny people who use Chamberlain's Tablets for these ailments with the best results, and will do well to follow their ex ample. Adv. "The price of feed is high, but it must be admitted," says the Hermis ton Herald, "some return is left for the fanner who can raise a 235-pound hog in nine months nnd all but 35 days of this timo on alfalfa pasture. And when a farmer can raise a car of such hogs and get over ?3000 for it, one is forced to believe there is money in hogs." No merchant advertises just "for a showing." When a merchant uses valuable advertising space it means that he has something to say to you. Adv. 4-9, 16, 23, 30tf.

The system to follow in order to share in good prices for tho product is not so much increasing the acreage as to use the same acreage with plant ings of the best seed obtainable and to grow the crop under tho best cultural method. 1 ' Exceptional high prices for potatoes one year encourages all sections of the country to increase their potato acreage the following year, ine chances are they will not be willing to pay the price for growing the next crop. A Potato Opportunity. Different sections will be more or less affected by conditions causing the coming season's potato crop to bo tho most expensive grown m recent years. High prices of spraying chemicals, scarcity and high prico of farm labor, some of the conditions. Several im portant sections are more or less de pendent on potash fertilizer, and the war has put a prohibitive prico on that commodity. For the man who knows the potato business and has nerve the situation seems to offer an opportunity. Ore gon potato growing is not a gambling proposition. There is absolutely no need for it to be. Potato prices should be affected in a measure by the general tremendous demnnd for foodstuff's, and good prices rule, as potatoes are an ' ex coptionnlly valuable food product end hard to substitute. Potatoes are not n luxury. They are a food of the highest quality,' so high in food value that, even at four dollars a hundred, they offer about as cheap a well-balnnrcd part of a meal as one can get. Tho countries which use potatoes as food eat far more po titoes per person thm ours. That this country's per capita con sumntion should be so low is due to the lack of satisfaction with the qual ity of potatoes usually offered the consumer.
