A dog or a boy clumlng the flock can no disturb a flock of market ducks na to put them out of condition. Kama way In the liiylng house. A disturbance that puta tlm heiia on nerve knocks the egg tveord. Koine one anyn, "The best wny to tell whether 1111 egg contains n rooster or a hen Is to hutch the egg under a hen and watch the chick for a year, nml If It crows It'n a rooster, ami If It Inyn eggs It'a a lien." It In occasionally the ruse that a breeding pen coulaliiH hens that are not popular with the lnnlu or which give him the cold shoulder. A testing of the eggs will show some of the eggs Infertile, and they mny be easily traced. Such hens should be mated to another nuile, us It Is seldom they liecoine rec onciled to the head of the hiirem or tha mule uuiUcs up with them. When the American Toultry nssiklu tlon met at Nashville, Tenn., most restaurants put on lots of chicken frills, and chicken soup, chicken snlnd, chick en sandwich and stuffed eggs were on about every bill of fare. The' mem bers felt like the boy who onld to the friend who entertained him: "Don't want none of thai. Hot plenty of that nt home." Tlm Single Comb Brown Leghorn seems to bo dropping out of sight, very few being seen nt shows, nml one sel dom sees a (lock of them. One reason for this Is because show requirements are such that the ridiculous double mat lug system must bo resorted to to get birds to win. This unnatural method applied to Barred Hocks has also retired them from the head of the procession. A way to Interest that boy and to keep him busy and happy Is to give him nil Interest In the flock, whether chickens, turkeys, ducks or geese. Make him a member of the firm, give him part of the profit and watch him get busy. Husy boys, with work that gives them a senso of proprietorship nml a chance to make money, are not among our dime novel renders nor as sociates of the lul I'o.vs of the streets. A fancier was recently tried nt WII llanisport. I'n., for shooting and killing n chicken thief. The Jury brought In a verdict of not guilty lifter five min utes' deliberation. Judges in Pennsyl vania nre getting away from the Idea that stealing n horse ami a chicken does not show the same moral turpi tude, mid Juries no longer consider chicken stealing a laughing matter.

They are Imleetruetlble, snnltury, light nnd enn Is- htiriied out occasionally to kill crawlers. Concrete nests nre harder to make mid heavy. Wiring and sealing show coops Is liecoiulug the rule In some sections where fiinclcr'a fow ls have liceii stolen or mutilated nt exhibitions. St-iils and wire, however, will not protect birds from such rascals. The curl;- sitting hen Is nearly al ways the best winter layer, nnd she la almost always set on eggs laid by the (In. in- hens that lay In tlm cheap egg season and do their sitting In hot sum mer, when eggs are scarce. Ohio now has P.oiKl fanciers raising pure bri-d poultry, and her Inst egg census shows 1111 egg crop of KS.lSCt, Sill dozens per year. Ninety-three per cent of herafarm flocks nre mongrels. The day old chick business is crowd ing out the hatching egg trade. One reason for this Is because tunny fan ciers have shipped eggs that didn't hatch, nnd dlssatlsllcd buyers natural ly prefer chicks to risking money and tlmu on eggs. Fowls need salt and relish It, but It Is very Injurious If too much Is given. Tin- safe way Is to nils it with wnter. 11 tablesM)onful to the gallon, and use to moisten the mash. The fact that a hen Is strong breeder one season Is no sign thnt she will bo the next. The wise fancier Is always on tlm watch for changes In his birds, ready to cull out those thnt break down after the molt or heavy laying senson or suddenly show weak ness or develop off points that would be reflected 111 their offspring. A Chester (Pa.) woman w as arrested by the S. P. C. A. nnd sent to the lock up for burning a chicken alive be cause It cnine Into her yard. She cer tainly must have beeu hot under the collar, and the cooler was the place for her. A Cleveland (O.i fence company re ports selling 'J,".000,tXiO rods of fence to poultrynien. This Is Just a slight hint of the magnitude of the poultry business, which a little while ugo whs too liislgnlllcnut as an industry to men tion. S. F. Heeler of Waynesboro. Pa., has six connected his hens' nests with the kitchen that when n hen goes oil the nest a bell tings In the house. As the rooster often goes on the nest to show the hen the way. the Joke must be on Mr. Btvlcr quite often unless he has Invented 11 rooster that lays also. Practical poultry raisers nre making Juno 1 the limit of hatching opera tions, so far as laying stock Is con cerned. Many get no chicks out after May 1o. The early chicks have plenty of time to develop Into early layers, are strong before the torrid heat ar rives and feed on the nhundant Insert and vegetable crop of the early mouths.
