To hatch chicken eggs requires

Eggs contalo a large proportion
of water. If you want your hens
to lay heavily, see that they have
all the water they can drink.
Nests should be arranged so the
fowls can get Into them readily
without being obliged to Jump
down upon the eggs In the nest.
"Pip" Is simply a cuugn or sound

Into each nostril often serves as a

Grape vines planted In the chick

afford shade to poultry and also
fruit to the owner In autumn. The
vinos should be trained up high.
It Is as easy to overfeed fowls 1
as It Is to underfeed them. The
happy medium can be learned only
by experience and close observa

to prevent them from getting ft

fight them afterward.
There la mighty little money In
fowls that are always kept hungry,

every day there will be on your table for
your family a goodly supply of calcium, nec
essary for the keeping of the body bones in vigor
and the teeth firm.

of it the body would readily yield to disease.
BETSY ROSS bread contains 18 percent of the
required amount. Eaten with milk alone it will
give all the mineral salts needed.
Remember, there are'differences in bread quality.
BETSY ROSS is scientifically healthful, while at
the same time delicious to the taste, appetuingly
