Very Best Flume Lumber See us before buying Tum-A-Lum Lumber Co There Is not much danger that healthy, vigorous fowls will become too fat, if compelled to exercise by scratching for the grain part of their ration. It is necessary to provide the hens with some reason for exercising in winter because they have no incen tive to exercise naturally, as they do In summer hunting for bugs and worms, etc. Phone Ui B.

Profits from Pigs (Prepared by the United States Depart* ment of Agriculture.) An egg, whether impregnated or not, has a small grayish spot on the sur face of the yolk known as the germinal •pot. As soon as a fertile egg is placed under a hen or in an incubator development begins. AU eggs should be tested at least twice during the period of incubation, preferably on the seventh and fourteenth days, and the infertile eggs and dead germs removed. White eggs can be tested on the fourth or fifth day, while the development in eggs having brown shells often can not be seen by the use of an ordinary egg tester until the seventh day. Dead germs soon decay and give off a bad odor if allowed to remain under the ben. Infertile eggs make good feed ior young chickens and are often used In the home for culinary purposes. Most incubator companies furnish testing chimneys with their machines, which will fit ordinary lamps. Electric or gas lamps may be used In a box with a hole slightly smaller than an egg cut in the side of the box and at the same level as the light. They may also be tested by sunlight or daylight, using a shutter or curtain with a small hole in it for the light to shine through. A good homemade egg tester, or can- dler, can be made with a large shoe box, or any box that is large enough to go over a lamp, by removing the end and cutting a hole a little larger than the size of a quarter In the bot tom of the box, so that when it is set over a kerosene lamp the hole in the bottom will be opposite the blaze.

Made in this way each Thermoid Tire is the work, from start to finish, of one man, who is rewarded, not on the basis of how many tires he makes, but how well he makes them. A new wonder of chemistry The toughness and resiliency of Thermoid Tires is the result of the discovery of CROLIDE. CROLIDE is blended in scien tifically exact degrees with each layer of rubber or fabric that goes into the tire. This makes the tread stronger and the fabric tougher. Never have we seen such durability or mileage so far in excess of our ex- pectations. You can depend upon 6000 miles of guaranteed service. (Ford sizes 7500.)

The eggs are tested with the large end up, so that the size of the air cell may be seen as well as the condition of the embryo. The testing should take place in a dark room. The infer tile egg, when held before the small hole, with the lamp lighted Inside the box, will look perfectly clear, the same as a fresh one, while a fertile egg will show a small dark spot, known as the embryo, with a mass of little blood veins extending in all directions. If the embryo is living ; if dead, and the egg has been incubated for at least 46 hours, the blood settles away from the embryo toward the edges of the yolk, forming in some cases an irregular circle of blood, known as a blood ring. Eggs vary In this respect, some show ing only a streak of blood. All infer tile eggs should be removed at the first teet The eggs containing strong, living embryos are dark and well filled up on the fourteenth day, and show a clear, sharp, distinct line of demarca tion between the air ceil and the grow ing embryo, while dead germs show only partial development, and lack this clear, distinct outline. 34677 automobile Stat., 388), as Amended and Sup plemented).
