A BOMB PROOF HERO.
Re stood upon the slippery deck.
Whence all but he had fled.
For airships circled o'er that ship
Like vultures o'er the dead.
When sfuled down from far above.
A bomb that struck the deck.
A second more It would explode
And all would be a wreck.
Quick as a flash that hero sprang
And grasped that bomb ah, me!
And threw it like a lightning stroke
Into the rolling sea,
Where It blew up with awful crash.
And on the shore, afar.
Ten thousand window panes were cracked
By the tremendous jar.
Then con Kress called that hero up
Before its august bar
And gave him a gold medal
For great bravery In war.
"And now," asked he who made the
speech,
"Where did you get such nerve
That in the midst of hurtling bombs
Your courage did not swerve?"
"Oh, sir," the hero brave replied,
"1 once lived on a farm
And oft bandied hot haymow eggs,
And they did me no harm!
"And I worked In a storage house
Where they store old hen fruit.
And there I saw whole crates blow np
With a tremendous toot"

CROSSING TURKEYS.
While not an advocate of crossing
the different varieties of turkeys. In
these days when good stock is scarce
It is sometimes necessary to go out
Bide your line to infuse new blood to
keep the flock up to the standard or to
strengthen its weak points. A cross
with the wild turkey is the best but
bard to secure, as the wild species is
almost extinct and much of the wild
blood for sale is spurious.
The most popular cross is Mammoth
Bronze and White Holland.
A beautiful thirty-fire pound gobbler
of this cross is shown. While the Nar
ragansett and Bourbon Bed are nearer

to the Bronze in color and weight they
are as scarce in some parts of the
country as the proverbial ben teeth.
But the White Holland by careful
selection has been bred up in size so
that many flocks are now equal to the
Bronze in weight and hardiness.
In breeding for size the ben Is gen
erally the side on which poultrymen
depend for that, but for a cross this Is
a slow process unless the turkey bens
are all one variety and strain, so that
for quick work a gobbler is best.
Adult turkeys, from two years up,
are best breeders, and fall 1s best time
to make up the flocks so that they may
be well acquainted with each other and
surroundings before the early spring,
when they mate and nest

Don't delay in ordering that new in
cubator early. Long waits for Incu
bators are generally caused by long
lelays before ordering.
Don't put in a mammoth incubator
unless your business warrants it and
then only section by suction as busi
ness expands.
Don't forget that the thermometer
is the gauge by which you run the ma
chine. Test the thermometer occasion
ally and thus save loss.
Dou't buy bargains In hatching ma
chinery. (Jood incnljulnis arc worth
good money and can't be built fur less.
Don't bung on to old npp'lances

Don't breed fowls tli.'it are off shape
or color and then call them by u Htainl-
rd breed mime.
Don't be satisfied until you are an
expert specialist in your line. Men
who geiieiallze seldom realize a for
tune. Don't weep over blisters. Success
mid blisters are twin sisters.
Don't expect no lips and downs in
life, but refuse to be the und"i' dog.

OUSTED AGAIN,
The Blanks when New Year came around
Both signed a resolution -That
they wouldn't break-on, no mis
take Until their dissolution.
Blie would not say an unkind word
Nor never call him "Sis,"
And home henceforth she'd make for hint
A heaven of sweet bliss.
His temper Blank henceforth would hold
Within an Iron grip
And never pull her false hair off
Nor call her "You old rip!"
But she his reior used for corns.
He broke a china plate.
Tills complicated everything
And led to a debate.
Then her emergency wouldn't work;
Her tongue just Hew round loose.
His temper blew the safety off
At such awful abuse.
There was a tearful blowout then.
They both joyrtded rash.
The shebang took an awful skid
And busted all to smash.

OVERWORKING THE HEN.
Hens, where system Is used, are as
much harnessed aa a horse aud may
be driven to death or rendered uutlt
for future profit or their energy may
be so conserved that a good profit on
the investment may be returned.
Many drive their heus too hard in win
ter. To get eggs In quantity they feed
much rich, forcing food to stimulate
the ovary, aud thus digestive system
and egg machinery are both overtaxed.
To get eggs many feed red pepper,
fenugreek, mustard or patented egg
dope. These may hurry a few eggs
ahead of the natural schedule, but
cause Injury to oviduct and digestive
system, often kill the hen or burn out
her egg machinery so she never lays
again. It does seem cowardly to sneak
dope into an unsuspecting hen's food.
It often causes suffering and certainly
Is unnecessary where hens are of good
stock, the proper age and properly
cared for. People should be satisfied
with a fair return on the investment
but high egg prices Influence some to
thus drive their bens too fast This Is
why breeding stock Is often no good
In the spring. They have been "work
ed to death" all winter, and what eggs
they lay are generally small. Infertile
or batch weak chicks.
FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLS.
Tea, turkeys like fresh air, and their
thick feathers are a protection against
cold. But there's a limit Ttey
should be protected against fierce
storms and fed regularly and well dur
ing the winter.
This is certainly a big country and
most too large for the law to handle,
and It certainly is a task to catch all
the food doners. Tuberculosis beef and
meat fixed with preservatives are sold
to the public without compunction or
fear of detection. The best way to get
ahead of such swindlers is to eat less
meat or raise your own.
The shipments of poultry, eggs and
feathers from the 1J4 counties of Mis
souri last year reached $30,902,410.
Missouri's poultry product is $50,000,
000 per year, the result of pushing
poultry culture, and every state In the
Union has the same chance.
There ought to be at least a nest to
every four hens, and each nest should
Just fit one heir comfortably. Where
two hens can get on the same nest a
fight and broken eggs may be expected.
Ton fellows that raise wheat needn't
hold yonr heads so high. The whole
wheat crop of 50.184,000 acres was
only $010,120,000. The American hen's
egg crop was over $500,000,000, and
that was only half ber crop and from
much less land than the wheat acreage
and with less expense.
A brooder house pays best where a
good number of chicks must be
hatched.
Over 75.000 auto licenses were Issued
In Pennsylvania the past season, and
mighty few of them didn't average
killing one chicken. Pretty bard on
farm poultry, but as an offset they
paid a tax of $750,000, to be applied to
road building.
When news came from the North
American egg laying competition that
an Englishman's White Leghorn had
broken the world's record by laying
292 eggs in a year, English fanciers
went glad and Americans got sad and
mad. But read this, you cranks: An
American ben, half Leghorn and
White Hock, has Just skinned them
all by finishing her year's record at
the Oregon experiment station to the
tune of 303 eggs. She did not stop to
celebrate, but kept right on laying.
Next
The oldest chicken thief to be ap
prehended In Pennsylvania Is eighty
years old, sentenced in December to
the Lancaster Jail. Think of It so
near the grave aud yet a knave!
Where nests are dark and roomy and
sufficient for the bens you seldom see
egg eating. Hens will always rush for
a broken egg because like most hu
mans they know a good thing when
they see It
The state game farm at Forked Elv
er, N. .1.. Is a success. Forty Incu
bator hatched quail, 200 wild Mallard
ducklings, thousands of English pheas
ants and a wlid turkey gobbler and
ten hens live in the ivlid natural sur
roundings and promise well for future
extension of the work.
It Is real amusing to hear the re
marks of male kickers when women .
exhibit fowls at the shows as if wom
en weren't the producers of the bulk
of the poultry in tills country. There
should be three jackass classes at the ;
shows. One should be for fellows that '
knock the Judge, the next for the fel
low who knocks the show manage- !
merit, the third, or big Jackass class, j
should be for the fellows who critl- :
else women for exhibiting their birds.
