Cars of Baby Chicks

Before the chicks arrive. every- tliin about the brooder house m be put in order-the place washed and disinfected with lye and water; the floog covered with paper and some clover chaff; the comers fenced off: and the brood- cr stove in operation.

The temperature of the brooder house 2 inolies off the floor at the outer edge of the canopy should be 90-95" for the first week. A we drop ,in itemperst a each week is recommended until a tem- ps,-ggupe of so” is reached. After 90" has been reached the temper- ature is generally lowered gradual- ly according to the outside tem- perature.

A floor space under the hover of 3-iosq. ins. for leghom chicks and 10-12 sq. in. for larger breeds is re- quired. so ' hover 56 inches in diameter will accommodate 250 icghorn chicks or 225 chicks of the larger breeds. The broader house should provide plenty of room. a minimum of so sq. ft. of floor space per 100 chicks is required for ihe first 5 weeks. and after 6 weeks the floor space should be doubled. .

A precaution against chilling would be to place a wire guard around the hover for the first few (lays. The guard should be moved further and farther from the hov- er and discarded entirely when the chicks have ieamed to return to the source of heat.

Chicks do best on a 21 per cent protein ration for the first 7 weeks and then gradually change to s 18 per cent protein ration between the 7th and the nth week. The fibre content of a chicks ration is very important. and experiments have shown that chicks do best on a ration ontaining about 5 per cent. A small amount of whole oats may be fed at If weeks of age in conjunction with the mash. providing some acid insoluble grit is fed as the oats contains a hard fibrous hull.

Potatoes

The potato situation is a very uncertain one indeed. With the present .price of potatoes around 54.00 per bushel many farmers are hesitating about planting such valuable material when they are not sure if next year's price will give them a return on the invest- ment. Present estimates are for an approximate 10 per cent increase in P. E. I. acreage over last. year. Mains plantings we are told are up is per cent but the total American acreage is about the same as last year.

Now. more than ever it will pay to give the growing crop the best possible care. The farmer who neglects to prepare a proper seed bed. cultivate. or spray often and

thoroughly will only throw good money sftpr bad. Don't plantmorc than you can properly care for- they're too valuable to drop in the ground and forget. Read the week-. ly Potato Bulletin. for timely tips.

Old stock is now being cleaned up but the're are still approximate- ly 100 cars of potatoes for ship-

DEAR Miss DIX: I have known a young man of 26 for the past year, and while he seems to like my company. he has never commit-

ted himself to serious intentions.

At present he is working nights

-from 1 AM. to 8 A.M.-and since he isn't busy, he has asked me to come to his place of business for a couple of hours to keep him com-

pany. Because of the hours, and

know how he feels about me, I have been in doubt about going.

am22

also the fact that I really don?

Should I go to this man's place of business once or twice a week,

Continue to ace hlm,'or forget all about him and go with other boys?

ANSWER:

SHEILA M. A.

You are in considerable doubt yourself as to the pro-

priety of your visits to a man's place of business, and you are quite

right.

The sort of visiting he suggests would be out of place at any

time, but is highly improper during the unconventional hours he works. This would be the shortest road to a bad reputation you

could take.

Asking you to come for a few hours is showing a lack of con-

slderstlon for you on his part. I

think the measure of a man's con-

siderstlon for a girl's good name is one of the surest gauges of his feeling for her. Since such thoughtfulness is entirely lacking in your friend. I do not think he offers much in the way of a secure future.

If you enjoy his company. and are wlilinz '0 80 Gilt WWI him u aslonslly on a basis of good fellowship. meanwhile walting'for a more suitable young man to come along, well and good. Dent pin

your hopes on him. however, and watch YOUPKIIGP VOW clrelully when '

he is concerned.

A tool company in Chicago is making vices with injury-proof handles. Thick. pliable rubber rings are mounted against the knobs at the handle-ends. Besides acting as a shock absorber when the handle end strikes the vise. the rings give protection against fing- er pinching. -

A century ago the railroads were being bitterly attacked in many quarters. The gripe was that "human life was being wantonly squandered." The public cried out for ,restrlctions that would have seriously impaired their efficiency and usefulnessto thenatlons. sim- ilar demands are being made today with respect to operation of the air lines.

Jet planes are proving safer to operate than propeller planes and ten years hence we will be able to travel the airlines with the maxi- mum in speed and safety.

A correspondent from Prince County informs me that one cold morning lest February while walk- ing from church to his home he noticed a covey of huns cuddled on the ice of a frozen brook.

The birds were obviously trying to puncture the ice to get water. But their beaks were not strong enough to break through.

"I was about to move on when the birds changed their tactics. They took turns pring their warm bodies against the same spot on the ice.

"I watched fascinated, until the work,was nearly completed. Then four liens joined beaks in pecking through the softened layer of ice. and they all grthered around the hole and drank "

The general flora of the earth is mentioned only in the first chapter of Genesis. In chapter four it says that Abel was a keeper of sheep while Cain was a farmer. We have no knowledge of what kind of crops he railed. After the flood Noah planted a vineyard and made wins so the vine is the first culti- vated plant mentioned.

As in biblical times the date palm is still the "tree of life" to those living in desert regions.

Oak trees were once respected and vene I on account of their size and strength. and ” orsd as a "fitting place for the burial of great men. .

A sprig of the tree under which

Every farmer in Europe fortun- ate enough to have oak trees growing on his premises realizes the value of acorns for 's.ttening hogs. but in the New World only the Indians have taken seriously

uslngthem for human con- sumption: and it is significant that among the fstt.est of all redrnen are those of Califomla whose staple diet from prehistoric times has been acorn meals

It is a fact that persons who have recovered from an attack of an infectious disease are not apt to suffer from a second attack of the same disease. This is true of measles. smallpox and typhoid fev- er. And in some diseases such as diphtheria, it is found that. while almost all youngsters are suscept- ible. almost all adults are immune.

This is explained hthusly: in- creasing years bring creasing re- sistance to certain types of bac- teria and toxins.
