Observing this, It should be borne in mind that no machine will hatch Infertile eggs, nor Vbrlng out robust chicks from weak fertility. Obviously, the, es sentials k to a i Hqod 1 batch, arB stfong, fertile eggs from a virile and productive strain of fowls. They should be of uniform size, symmetrical. In shape, even color. and good shell. The sooner such eggs are placed lit the: incubator after being laid and candled tor proper consistency the better. In placing an incubator "c hoose a;dry;'irell-ventliated- situation, free from draughts -, and,. sudden changes of temperature; see ' that ttie machine sets perfectly leveK sad that the heat Is steadily and evenly 'distributed throughout the egg chamber. A good plan is to set up and operate it for a couple of days so that it will be running properly V. with z an' even tempera- ter: it should' register about 103 degrees. 3y following the printed instructions; the matter :oi "mbIs- ture and ventilation will be sol ved. For the first week the tem peratare in the machine should be 102 degrees; 'the second, 10.3.' when the tbermbmeter bulb rests on a level, with the tops of the 'eggs.' After thlrty-sik hours the eggs should be' . turned at lesat twice a day, morning and evening, until they nineteenth day, when they ahonld be "allowed to - remain undisturbed, In addition to turn ing, the' eggs should be thoroughly cooled from I the seventh to the nineteenth ".' day. Eggs must also be "tested ouV first on the sixth day, and, again on tne nrteentn though some advocate three test ings. vision, the fltthV tenth and fifteenth days 5 A1J Infertile, weak and dead-germ eggs should be're- moved. After hatching, which us ually happens ,pn, the. twenty-first day, the thicks should be allowed to remain in the incubator until thorou ghly dried . off. when they may, be removed to . the brooder ready at hand for-their reception ' The modem ; incubator is oper ated "either with, oil burners,' gas or -electricity'. If by the first men tlonedcare must be exercised in the use of a high quality of illum inating oil; the lamp must be fill -ed daily and kept trimmed and cleaned down to the , minute; with gas, see that the pressure is even and that the flame burns clear and even: with electricity (which we regard as the ideal heat) .there is less risk and anxiety than with either of th other two. The small, modern incubators operat ed by electricity have proven, their -capabilities, and given ; general 'satisfaction wherever -used.'- FIT OUTLOOK IS - BRIGHT fiOW This. Applies to BotK Crop ? Prospects' and the Mar- ? keting- Indications" ; The , prospect ' of, the orchard 'fruits is generally-very favorable, according to a! report Just issued , by the United SUtes department .of agriculture. Some injury to .fruit buds in southern Wisconsin has' resulted from heavy Ice" coat- ling following mild weather. Some 'iruit blossoms are t; reported in Mississippi,. and.; Tennessee, : and almond - trees are -beginning to bloom In California, ,Ci.L Lewis, assistant, general 'manager of the , Oregon ' .Growers. Cooperative as sociation, reports that peaches new RIVEN .- .4 and plums were' in: blossom in southern Tennessee and Alabama on February 22. - . Mr. Lewis stated that there is considerable feeling among the inland peach growers that the crop has met with quite, exten sive damage from the cold weath er of this winter, he says: "The late spring is very beneficial for all early blooming fruits, as it retards the blooming until the weather is more settled." . An Optimistic Outlook "Business' is Improving and they are very optimistic In the east regarding the-present out look," says-Mr. Lewis. He has Just-returned from an extended trip In the south and east. He has had a splendid opportunity to ' thoroughly analyze the situ ation, as he visited the principal cities in practically all the east ern aa well as the southern states. The stocks are very low in prac tically all lines of dried and can ned goods, he said, and, with the shelves of the dealers becoming depleted, there is every prospect that1 there will be a scarcity in these goods early in the season. iwcuunw El QnoW MMsru Will U uo ouuiui ifiuniAij ..... the Matter Investigated for Our Protection Following is a news bulletin of Monday. - issued by the Oregon Growers Cooperative ' association: The Oregon Growers Cooperat ive association has requested. I through Senator Charles L. Mc Nary, the ' investigation of the Manchurian walnut Industry by the United States department of agriculture. It Is believed that a man detailed to study the actual I And1tIoii of the walnut nrodnc I . s tlon in Manchuria will lead to a better knowledge of means ' to safeguard the Oregon walnut in dustry from this ever Increasing Mmiwlltlnn Althmiirh thA anal itjr-ot the Manchurian nut is far Inferior to our own nrodnct. vet by bleaching the nuts can be made to .appear and compare very fav orably with the Oregon nut.

The fol - lowing note In a farm paper from euiie in D F. W. Hawes of Maricopa, ..Caul,. C.I. Lewis, assistant general telling of its value as a guardian against .marauders in the poultry yard twill prove of interest and value to many readers: "Where one has free range for"n of these two problems and fowls J believe that the guinea is ndlsDensable. as a protector. Ontll0r MCNary steps are now being need have no fear of hawks where few guineas are running at larre. In the first place their continual cry will frighten 4 away the hawks,; but should one become brave enough .to attempt the theft of a chicken he will be met in the air by Mr. Guinea. i Ican .remember a time when t. was the general belief that it guineas were allowed their free dom they would deposit their eggs In some obscure place;, but this Is mistake. ' The : guinea hen lays regularly and nearly always la the forenoon. If one will pay at tention, he. will hear her making very peculiar noise, different! from her regular cry? while she is on the best," therefore it becomes a simple matter to locate the nest. As to the quality of eggs. ?

I different parts of xthe ; country I have rather decided preferences l for either white or browil eggs i The wise producer considers ne likes and dislikes of his prospec- 1 tlve customers, even though they I may be based on a mistaken no j tion. A brown egg is just as au I tritious as a white egg. and I white one is just as full of meat i ever, he may get a little more I good out of the egg he eats.

Although the content of the egg is the same as that of a white one, there is s difterence in the covering. The shells of the brown eggs are harder, and the skin Just underneath the shell is tougher, in hatching, the chicks have a little harder work getting out than those that happen to de velop In shells of lighter hue. In New York the white egg j brings a premium of 7 to 10 cents a dozen at some seasons, but it is probable that the New Yorker gets no more nourishment nor tnjoy ment out of his breakfast than the Bostonlan, who pays, a similar premium for brown, eggs. Own ers of poultry farms serving the metropolis are well aware of this preference and as a result keep fowls, mostly Leghorns, that pro duce white egg. The white egg breeds, in addition to the Leg horns, are the Black Spanish, the Minorca and all the. Mediterran ean breeds. All of these breeds have white ear loaes. In Philadelphia, the preference is largely for white eggs and this marl.et draws largely from the same territory as New York for its highest, grade eggs. Chicago gets tarm eggs from all parts of the Middle Weal that are sorted and graded, by those who pack them. There is no pronounced preference in that city. Th Pa cific coart prefers white eggs, and the large poultry plants keep Leg horns. STAYTON NEWS 1 1 . f ' 'i ' , A STALTQN, Or., Mareh 15, Mrs. Rees, wife of Rev.. C." B.

Also the commission sent out a total of 865 more rash bonus payments. "Rapid progress in shaping policies to be fohowed by ttie com mission in -making loans to eligi ble veterans of the World war is now. being made,! said - Captain Brumbaugh, In a statement issued yesterday. "It is : already appar ent, however, that many perplex ing, problems will have to. be over come before the machinery for actually Issuing the loans Is in full swing. Up to this time 6831 loan application blanks have been mail ed to applicants and up to March 13, 2,163 of these had been re turned to the commission for pre liminary examination." Snow Hampers Appraisers To show that he commission is making every endiavor to ex pedite the granting of loans. Cap tain Brumbaugh pointed out that 1,054 appraisers' reports had al ready been transmitted to the ap praisers in the various counties. In the eastern sections of the state, however, the appraisers have been seriously hampered and delayed in making their apprais als, due to the extremely incle ment weather and heavy snows As soon as the weather moderater to the extent that roads become passable, and also that careful examination of the lands in those districts can be made the work of the appraisers will pgo forward even more rapidly than at pres ent. Experts Called "For the purpose of securing reliable advice In property apprais als and loans." said Brumbaugh, the commission has called to con ference two experts from widely known financial institutions in Portland. The commission feels that' with the. early guidance of snch experts advice, the interests of the state, as well as those of the individual applicant will be mply protected , and firmly as sured, both in the early stages of the administrative work, and lat er, in fortifying the position of the state as regards the repay ment of the loan." "On condition which has been forcibly brought to the attention of the commission in the examin ation of the loans, which will to be remedied, is the apparent lack, of interest on the part of the applicant in having his property in the best of shape at the time the appraisers appear for the ex amination. Property in Poor Shape 'Quite a number of appraisers reports received so far show that the property has received scarcely any care or attention for the past several years.

Fences have in some cases apparently rotted from their posts and ia general It would appear that thej prupenj- du uea u?u lor every i other purpose than that tor which! it was intended. Good Appearance Necessary "Applicants should realize that the fixing of the amount of a loan depends to a very material extent upon the appearance of the prop erty at the time the appraisers visit such property for the purpose of making their appraisals. As it is with the large loan companies and financial Institutions so it will be with the bonus com mis sion property must appear well kept before a proper valuation can be arrived at. It is a fact that a dilapidated and run down farm or home cannot help but reflect to at least some extent, the character of the man who purposes to make it bis home and to point it out as the security he has offered the state of Oregon in return for its consideration in granting him a loan."
