The Lukiiiiiutu tem.erature in Egypt 11 reached on the HOtb. of January ; after iLi? it teadllr rise. aud by Eaater the hot weather may be expected. This makes the procoii difficult and the oveus are therefore cked for the year. The population of Egypt is er j dene. about 7 (."I per (Kiuare oiili. Th:s agglointratiou foiprs the aw of large iucabatorie?, turning out eacii oLe froui ;kJi.t.J to OO.IWO chicks each 6easoa. Ia t-otue Til- lagee there are from three to five f thee euUblisbmenta, They are generally near to frome important market place, and each ose appar ently iu the center of a district of alout -Vi.O"! population Tha is, each one i-iu the center of a circle having a radius of live mile. It is this density of the population that has allowed this hjstem of artificial hatching to become so very success ful. At the same time it must be re-memi-ered that there is no other, as the native Leu r.ever t-its on her egg-;. Another important point is that the hatchers do njt attempt to rear the young broods. l'orty-eight hjrs after the chicks emerge from I the shell they are scattered oyer tu; ! country: overcrowding is thus pre j vented. This distribution is effected ! ia a very simple manner. As the in cubatory is near a market place, word is sent there that on such a day there will be so many young chicks. This news is quickiy disemiaated among the village, and ou the ap pointed day the women arrive with their cages ami purchase the youDg chicks, which are generally sold by the hundred for about l.-"'t per hundred. There are also a nuoilxr of brokers or dealers who take the young chicks to tne more uisihui villages. Tor this tiiey have cages made from the palm branch. They are divided into two stories, each of which is divided by a partition, so that the smaller division only con tains about 250 chicks, thus prevent ing overcrowding. Two such cagos will transport each 1,000 youug birds, so that a man with a donkey easily manages 2,000 of them, and by nightfall has probably sold the en tire lot at a distance of five or six miles fioni the establishment Once in the villages the chicks be come tho p of the women who takegrea care of tbem during the tirst week, l'or two or three days they are kept in cages in lots of 20 or 30 and fed on broken grain slightly moistened. At night the cages are taken into the houses and sometimes covered with a bit of cloth. After these lirst few days the young birds are strong enough to forage for a living; they are then al lowed to roam about freely and at night are kept iu a sort of oven placed in a corner of the courtyard. This oven is made of nnburnt clay and iu shape is like the letter U laid on one side. The top is slightly per foiated. The entrance is closed by a heavy stone to keep off foxes aud other vermin. When tho young chicks are fairly feathered they are plucked perfectly clean nnd slightly greased. This adds greatly to their health, but de tracts much from their beauty. It strikes a stranger as something ex tremely novel to see hundreds of perfectly nuked chickens basking in tbn sun or running about. It is diilicult to gel any exact fig nres ni to lln unrulier of these incii- hut oriee, but adjuging from those Ieraonally known tome, aud their distances apart, 1 should estimate the number at with an average production of 3CJH ,IMM per beason This estimate must be t veil within the mark, as the population of Egypt is nearly 7,(K)0,(MK, and fowls j form a very large part of the Egyp tian diet, so that 1.",0tJU,t)0 eatable fowls would be a short supply. The ordinary form of the incuba tories is an obloug 100 feet iu length by 50 feet iu width, the height varying from 12 to 15 feet The outer chamber A. is divided into three rooms, the middle one marking the entrance to the ovens and thus excluding the outer air. The door leading from A into the central hall is very small, li represents the ovens of the upper tier. C is the man-hole; '.Lo attendant Hands in this and manipulates the eggs. 1) 1) are spaces in the central hall for the reception of the v-iug chicks. These spaces ure marke 1 ofT by ridges of dried mud about nine in ches in height. E is the door giving access to the interior of the oven. Arouud the wall and parallel to it runs a raised ridge six inches in height: between this and the wall the fires are lighted. In the top of the dome is a small aperture about two inches iuare for the exit of smoke aud regulating the heat. The outer wall, four feet thick, is generally built of sun iried bricks, the mortar simply mud. The circu tar ovens are built up and the t-paces between them and the wall tilled in with brick and mortar, the t-srue as the outer walL Each set of ovens. the oppw and the lower, is perfectly loaependent and is covereJ ly a dome Laving a very femall bperture in tLe crewn. Iu the month of January, about tLe 10th. tire are lighted in all tLe ovens and 00 the lloor of th central ball. The entire building is thor- uugniy vuiueu 10 a iruiLTiaium ci , 110 degree Eahrenheit. This heat i is continued for three week-, when the temperature is allowed to fall to 100 degrees l'abrenheit. The fires are at erst composed cf gelleb or dried oow daLg, but when the egg areplaceJ ic the oven c are broken straw, moct the joints, arvl aheeit or Coat duLT ;s Uted. T l"ha fuel is placed in the trough be tweea the ball and the ridge, acd is lighted at one or more places, ac cording to the degrees of beat re quired. This is the only means of regelating the bat. Thermometer b are not used. The attendant en deavor tJ keep the Lai a tr:i!e greater than that of their otvu frkin. While the ovea is being warrued. notice is sent oat to the villages that J wo-; 1 Iav-r tenniatica. the establishment will purchase eggs j It :s c'a:cied that :f tLe tempera on such a date. The country people Jure ia the egg chamber remain at arrive w;th large crates containing 1 from one to two thousand. The-e j are porcha.ed outright by the etab lishment at the rate of $4 per lout. The rioor of the oven i. covered with a coarse made of paiai leaves; on this a little bran is sprinkled to prevent the eggs from rolling. The attendant changes the position of the eggs twice a day. taking those from near the man-hole and placing them in the outer edge of the circle and vice versa. At the end of .six days the eggs are htld op one by one towards a strong light. If they ap pear clear and of a uniform color, it is evident that they have not sac- ceeded: bat if they show an obacjne j substance within or the appearance of different, sLades, the chickens are already forme 1. The bad eggs are removed and the others are con tinued in their places for four days: at the expiration of this time they are again examined and then put back into their places, the same con tinual shifting fiom the inner to the outer part of the circle being ob served. The doors of the oven are kept hermetically closed by a small plank well caulked. This is removed in the forenoon and afternoon and ouce during the night to see that the heat is kept at the proper point. After the eggs have been tifteeu days in the ovens they are daily ex amined, and so delicate is the touch of the attendant that he can at once distinguish if the egg be alive by the fact that it should be slightly warm er than his own skin. At the expiration of lwenty-ou days the chicks commence to emerge from the shells, the attendants con stantly aiding them. They are placod in the spaces d d, and left to dry for nearly forty-eight hours, but they are not fed. The sale then commences and iu a few hours they are spirited away. The temperature in the ceutral hall is maintained at '.'8 F., and that of the ovens slightly more. ADDITIONAL lAlTs. This report of the United States consul at Cairo, Kgypt, ou the state of artificial incubation at tho present day in the remote country of tho Nile is so astonishing as to almost pass the boundaries of belief. Hut we have suflicieut proof at hand of the genuineness of this report; also that the statements made thereiu are facts. From another report we glean the following additional facts: Th two attendants in ehairjn of the incubatory visited and inspected consisted of a half blind old man aud u 10-year old boy. They were locked securely inci te, and it is only bitrh authority that t.tiy one is admitted. Tbe'iecrets of the establishment are jealously guarde 1 from the natives. Says the report: "In a few mo ments I was amid dark passages, peering into high brick ovens or chambers, 111 which were tens of thom:ands of eggs, and iu two of which were thousands of little chick ens just from the shells and not yet able to look after food.'' "The Egyptian Incubatory of to day is but a reprodution of the one of thousands of years ago. Iu all tber-e years the Egyptian breed of cLickens has w.A changed, and the manner of reproduction has re mained immutable. Not long since I secured the metal stamp ofa chick en deposited iu a tomb over '2,000 jears ago. and it is a perfect type of tl.e Egyptian fowl of today, and when this stamp was struck, artificial ir.cubatiou was a thing of actual ex istence in Egypt. The methods of Latching eggs by artificial means and a knowledge of constructing ap pliances for the me Lave descended through ages from father to son. and the wonderful success attending this industry throws into insignificance the modern scientific machines lately introduced into the I'nited State a ad elsewhere. "Not only are the egg put through the process of incubation mere cheaply here than any where else in the world, h-it chicks are at an ex peDse pa Con. prehension, while di- sea- arid natural death am one foils i t-ae ,..f t!re!s care, is almost on- kuo n."

I Points Gleaned From Practical Exper ience anJ From Expert Operators. Ali roa 1- do n-1 lead to Korae in art:ticia! iueub&tion; but there are many iLat give onditiins so similar that reaxj:.ab!e sacce will follow. 1'ure a;r, oyg'. is said to be essen tia! to the vigr of the embryo chick. Uae opera'or supplies this though tie veitil&tore while another will cl'7-e th ventilators ali 1 air the eggs every other dav f.r tea or fifteen minute. If it u d;i!I'u!t to keep the temperature up to lit1, we would ad-vis- cpening the ventilators tat slightly and air the eggs, otherwise 1"- saf:ic:eatly long tj heat the whole egg 13 that temperature it ;im- pairs the vitality of the cick so that it will not l;ve many days after hatching. Also, that if it runs up to l'V for a time it sho.iId be reduced to lvl 1. rig eaoagh t ) jialize matters and not ua bily La-tea the develop ment of the chick. Mort successful operators believe that the bulb of the thermometer should rest against the center of an egg containing a live germ, the end being slightly elevated. Those fol lowing this plaa advocate a tempera ture of pil to l'Ti degrees the rirst week. lt.id the second week, snd 104 to lOl1. the third week. The natural heat of the chick raises the tempera ture cf the egg chamber, as iucuba tiou progresses. Incubators are run successfully ithout the thermome ter touching it fertile egg. but the bulb is kept on a let el with the cen ter of the eggs. If the heat "settles. " the tempera ture is biuhest ia the center of your incubator, it caa be overcome by raising the end trays, bringing them closer to the tank, liaising the tray one-fo:irth inch usually makes a dif ference of one degree. Complete success cannot be hoped for when the temperature varies in different parts of the egg chamber. Before starting au incubator it is a good plan to place four or live ther mometers in different parts of the machine at tho same time, making sure that there is but slight varia tion. Occasionally a machine will show a difference of three or four de grees letween the center and end trays. Thermometers are sometimes de fective. Test new thermometers by placiug in hot water with oue known to be uccurate. aud let the water cool dowu to 1');!; if they register alike they are all right. One of our contributors in this number is of the opinion that oper ating a machine ia a carpeted room increases the amount of moiMure re quired for a successful hatch. This operator slates that the hatches were made with ventilators open, conse quently evaporation was great; much moisture was carried out of the egg chamber, and more than a usual amount had to be supplied. A wind will soon dry up n mud hole. The only absolutely correct guide as to when, aud how much, moisture should be supplied is the si.e of the air col! within the egjj which should gradually increase as the hatch pro 11 .'1 1 gresden until 11 equals aoo'H one-: fourth of the whole. lOovernor of Nebrask Vetee Bill Succeasfal hatches have bxu made , Commending State Troop. where little or no moisture has been !

Scarcely less is oir admira-1 tioa for the work of the ofSwrs and men of the regalar servic?. Aa ex- am&Ie we caa point to in Colonel Harry C. Egbert, who fell ia the battle at Maliata. la$t weeL lie was recognized as one of the bravest aad most unselfish spirits of the army. Gallantry coald n't bring prefer ment to CoL Egbert, for it goes by seniority of rank ia the regn'ar ser vice: so that whether be exposed himself or not, he would have moved up when his tarn came. But in act tion Harry C. Egbert thought only of his regiment, and to show an ex ample to the newest recrsit he courted danger with the sunniest as pect that a man ia mortal danger ever wore. CapL I- V. V. Keanou of the tb infantry, in describing the battle of San Joan in the Santiago campaign, thus referred to CoL Eg bert: "Now and thea I caught a glimpse of Col. Egbert, who, you know, ia a little man. and he seemed to be earned away with the spint of battle, for be constantly 6miled as he walked about, and when I was in donbt and asked him for orders he said blithely : 'Forward, always for ward, go forward. " Of coarse, he was wounded, and the wonder was that death did not claim him at San Joan. Another officer who saw him there remarked that it really looked as though Col. Egbert was trying to get himself killed. AtMalinta when be fell he was leading a bayonet charge with the same old indomita ble spirit, and he must have had the same old inspiring smile on his face. Bathetic beyond conception were his his dying words to Geu. Wheaton: '(Joodby. general; I am done. I'm too old." The fire of his youth was his while he had strength to keep the field, and he would never have been to old to show men how to die. An amy with such leaders is itiviucible.
