thousands of tiny wires of many colore.
Color plays an important part In wire
laying. From the five colors blue, or
ange, green, brown, a late countless
combinations are mads. A wire Is tha
same color throughout Its entire length.
This helps to locate and repair trouble
with facility. The wires connecting
with subscribers In this room alone
measure 663,000,000 feet, 106,712 miles
or more than four times the circum
ference of the erath.
The word "hello" has been east out
In disgrace from respectable telephone
elrcjes. Subscribers may still cling to
It as an opening signal, but the oper
ators have dropped It from their vo
cabularies forever. :
The telephone system in its relation
to city life has been likened to the
nervous system of the body, and It Is
a very good comparison. From any
point of activity, either business or
trouble, almost as quickly as the little
nerves of the body carry the outside
warnings to the brain, the little tele
phone wire bears Its message to tha
central exchange. We might change the
comparison a little and call tha big
exchange the . pulse of the city's actlv
ities, for here we can measure exactly y
the rise and fall of the, city's busi
ness. Between the . hours of 10 and
11:30 a. m. and between the hours of
2 and B p. m. the city Is rushing Its .
messages over the Una as fast as tho
wires will carry them. Then there ia
a lull. Later there la another rise, but
for another reason. This time It Is
about 1 o'clock In the evening, and it
Indicates that the busy work-a-day
world has washed Its face, dined and
put aside Its bread and batter
thoughts and is ready to begin the
evening's 'diversion.
The telephone's work is never done,
Uke the steady old clock, it works 2e
hours In the day. There Is no time
when the management .can put up tha
shutters and leave a note on the door
"Back In an hour." Like the proverbial
brook, it goea on forever. . Any hour of
the i night a fully equipped office Is
ready to take the hurried message for
the doctor, carry, a message to friends
or tell, the time as the hours slowly pass.

formation operator Is, It, la almost play tie machines. Farmers everywhere are eggs la at stake. There are two types-
price required to purchase experi
ence need not 'be large; for incubators
are not expensive, and It la much bet-
to
one operated with hot water, and the
other with hot air. Comparatively lit
tle attention is required by either kind;
but that little must be raref ulrjr gtven.
The lamp must be kept clean and filled,
and the wick properly trimmed. The
eggs must be turned regularly, or the
contents will adhere to the membrane
of the shell; but in the best machines
the traya are so arranged that this
operation can be performed rapidly. The
eggs must be examined several times
during the period of incubation, ln order,
to test out those which are not fertile.
This testing la done by placing the egg
between the eye and a strong light;
after a little experience it becomes pos
aible to tell at a glance whether the egg
contains a live chick or a dead germ, or
whether .lt Is Infertile. Air except the
first kind are, of course, removed.
Some poultry men become so expert
that they can detect the presence of a
decayed egg before a machine is opened.
Others have special .devices for testing -out
the unhktchable eggs; but tho ama-'
teur usually obtains the most satisfac
tory results by using a tube like device,
larger at one end than at the other, ,
which cuts off all the light coming be
tween the eyes, and the egg, and leaves
only that which shines through tha egg
itself. By using this device. It is possi
ble to test 100 eggs ln a short time.
3ood Ventilation Necessary. ,
The machine should be placed where
the ventilation la good, and should not
stand ln a draught ; Draughts affect
the temperature of the inoubator, and
cause the lamp to burn unevenly. The
aim of the operator 1 to keep the tem
perature within the egg chamber close
to 103 degrees, throughout tho period of
Incubation. The temperature is shown
on a little thermometer Just, above the
eggs, and visible through tha glass door
of the egg chamber Somo machines
are fitted with a tiny electrlo light bulb.
1 so that the Interior may be illumined
at any time by touching a button. ' This
makes It possible to read the ther
mometer clearly, even at night ' . i - '
When chicks emerge from the shells
they are weak and wet, and should not
be removed from the machine until they.
; have become thoroughly dry. It Is sel
dom advisable to open a machine for tha
purpose of helping chicks that are hav
' ing difficulty in -pecking- their way ; to
freedom. A chicken which is not strong
enough to obtain 1U liberty unaided, is.
as a rule, not worth bothering with..
It is necessary that the eggs to be
used In an incubator should be care
fully selected. Brown and white eggs
should not be placed in the same ma
chine, for the former have thicker shells,
which are' not so qulokly affected by
heat and moisture.
