A Louisiana reader is having trou. ble with his incubator, becsuae only one-half the eggs hatch, the others | dying in the shell just before they are ready to break through. The fault may be with the Incubator or it may be with the operator. Perhaps the operator opens the incubator just as the eggs begin to hatch, or perhaps the molsture pn has been neglected, both of which will cause the chicks to | die in the shell.

The hog pasture must have shade, or sheiter, and abundant water, Drain off the flithy wallowing holes and give the hog a bath of clean wa ter to plunge in. Young sows that do well with thelr first litters may be considered good brood sows, Watch the hogs and be sure that they are not lousy. If lice are found, spray the hogs with some good dip or kerosene emulsion. Hogs thrive best when they are surrounded by clean, dry condaidons and not compelled to wallow in fiithy holes and stagnant pools. | When the pigs begin to amell round the trough, give them some milk and oats or middliiogs in a small trough in a pen not accessible to the BOW, Twenty-four hours after the pigs are born give the gow a slop of wheat middiings or bran. A little warm wa ter or milk will do no harm at any time, Always give water or slop to a hog before feeding him grain. This will greatly increase the gains and will tend to keep him in better health than if allowed the grain first. Every man who rames pigs should take enough time each day to look over his herd and note the condition of each hog. If any show signs of alling they should receive attention. ~Kimball's Dalry Farmer A ———— A Coaling Ship, Bui on the Tyne, a floating ceal depot with a capacity of 12,000 tons has arrived at Portsmouth, England, where it will be used for coaling be | before that breed assumes a minis ¥ and cruisers. ov 8 |p Unearthed earthed.

Although It was demonstrated more than 29000 years ago that the earth ts globular in form, there are certain persons who maintain that it is fiat About thirty years ago a controversy on the subject waxed so hot that it was determined to put the matter to direct experiment in order to settle the question onee for all. The place chosen was near Bed ford, England. where there is » Straight six-mile streteh of water. At both ends and in the middle of this water posts were erected, each of the same definite height above the water level. Upon looking with a telescope along the tops of these three posts it was clearly seen that the center one overtopped the others by about six feet, owing to the curvature of the surface of the earth. These experiments were recently repeated in a more scientific manner by H. Yule Oldham, who read a paper on the subject before the Glasgow meeting of the British Association The same results were obtained, with the important difference that by the employment of a tele-photographic lens and camera the six foot promi nence of the middle post was record ed in an unmistakable manner.~Phil Ch Re Len : FURRS GE BG hn di Wt i314 | | 5 ol a GG ey J. | Spring Mills Hotel tmp A BPEING MILLA PA. { PHILIP DRUMM, Prop, | | First-class soompmodations st all times for bot | men ard besst, Free bus 10 and from aif 1 trains.
