What on earth have you been do

ax Helen joined him on the steps of
the apartment.
"Why, 1 just stopped to give Mary
some orders about dinner, dear."
"Couldn't you do that before wo

"I know 1 did, and it is a perfect

"Polks, what folks?"
"Why, Carrie and Fred are coming

"By George. I had forgotten. Is

"This Is the night. It's Fred's birth

speech as she eoulfl. "This is the
first time that Carrie hns consented
to go to the theater since >-our moth

Warren was silent and thcv walked

Warren always brought up the sub

detested the prospect of chicken rais

forerunner of his good humor.
They walked down the avenue. Hel

day, she wanted the entire world to be
happy with her, and when they reach

street she paused a minute to find
some change in her handbag for a
■poor old woman who stood close to
the curbing.
Helen fumbled in her handbag a few !

"I didn't know that you would

either. You know very well that it

"Well, I'd be ashamed to admit that

professional beggars have real estate
in their own names and lots more
money in the bank than you or I."
"Perhaps that Is truo of some,"
Helen admitted, "but you didn't know
I that anything of the kind was true

l that occasionally you could give just

"That's all very well in theory,"
said Warren, sure of his point, "but
there are organized charities to take

"Well, [ intend to take a chance

firmly. "Even if I actually discov

enough to have a great effect, anrl that
the damage Is in part compensated by !
an increased birth rate after war.
They cannot, however, disprove the

They assert, however, that the

During the war, they say the heroism
and unselfishness of a people are
stimulated. Persons wn«» have de

The men of the race learn how to
face death, the women how to face
sacrifice. In peace, heroism is pos
sible only for a few—such as explor
ers and adventurers. In war, hero- |
ism becomes the common experience
of the race. Nations often produce
their greatest men after wars. The

By ROBKRT ARMSTRONG
Experienced Poultryman
The season lias been backward 111

arc In the same plight; yet there Is a
remedy. Purchase an Incubator at
once: that Is the solution: you can
then defy weather, time and the per
versity of the lien.
WE cannot Improve on Mistress
Biddy's virtues as a means of
hatching a brood of chicks, for
she has been making a specialty of
the art for hundreds of years; but we
can almost equal her efforts, and cer
tain it ts that we can do it more eco
nomically than she can. We have
found out her secrets, and to these
we have added our mechanical genius,
with the result that Instead of hatch
ing 15 eggs at one operation, we can
now hatch 15,000 eggs at one time,
and even greater numbers—there is
practically no limit to the process.
There are hatcheries In the country
that have a capacity of from 50.000
to 120,000 eggs at every hatching.
The figures are astounding, are they
not? Such a thing would have been
considered a preposterous falsehood
in our fathers' boyhood days.
The whole principle of artificial In
cubation is based upon the very sim
ple fact that if a strong fertile egg is
maintained under certain uniform
conditions of heat, moisture and fresh
air for a sufficient period of time, it
will be transformed into a strong,
healthy young bird. The process may
not hatch quite as many eggs, pro
portionately. as the hen will develop,
but this is not due to any defect in
the machine necessarily, rather be
cause in handling such large numbers
of eggs it Is impossible to give each
one the same attention that the hen
would be free to give it. Ponder for
a moment, however, and think of the
time saved on the part of the attend
ant who would have to feed enough
sitting hens to hatch—say, 12,000
eggs, which is not a great number on
farms devoted to poultry raising: and
then consider what an enormous loss
in egg production there would he
while these hens are idling their time
on the nest, instead of being "on the
job" In the layinghouses.
Eight hundred hens would he Re
quired to hatch 12,000 eggs, and from
the time they become broody until
they have hatched, reared and weaned
their broods, and then reinvlgorated
themselves for further egg production,
from eight to twelve weeks must
elapse. During this time they would
probably lay four dozen eggs each,
which, at an average price of twenty
five cents a dozen, would mean a loss 1
of SHOO to their owner.
Possibilities of the Incubator
Briefly, it is poor economy to hatch
with hens, except in rare cases, as
the above figures will prove. The
exceptions to the rule are when farm
ers r3ise but very few chickens each
season, as a sort of by-product, and
feel that they cannot devote a part
of each day to the care of an incu
bator. But, as a matter of fact, the
care of an incubator of small capacity
is almost negligible, and could easily
be done by the farmer's wife in a half
hour's work each day. Incubators
have rt ached such a state of perfec
tion these days that they are almost
automatic and foolproof in their op
eration.

SINGLE-COMB BLACK ORPINGTONS
The English fanciers are very proud
of the Orpington and it has attained n
large measure of popularity in the
I nlted States and Canada. Many good
birds have been Imported and the
American breeders are becoming well
versed In the breed and learning rap
idly how to grow and handle it to the
best advantage.
For utility the Orpington breeders
claim as many qualities as those now
conceded to the American varieties
and which have made the latter so
popular among commercial poultry
breeders. It is a fine-meated, medium
sized fowl, approximating the popular
weights demanded by the markets, is
a producer of large, brown eggs and
has a reputation for being a good win
ter layer. The chicks are rugged and
hardy, rapid growers, reach broiler
size in good time and make splendid

CAPT. ROBERT C. ttaiJJAMS
Just Promoted to Lieutenant-Colonel
of Army
Word was received today by Capt.
Robert <'. Williams, commandant of
the local recruiting station in this
city, his appointment as lieutenant
colonel in the United States army had
been approved by the Secretary of
War.
Captain Williams' leaped the sap
in the line from captain to lieutenant
♦ olonel by a curious co-incidence. Up
|on his retiring from the active list
he retained the rank of captain but
remained in line for promotion should
he return to active duty. Recently
|he underwent examinations at Fort
.Ontario. New York to return to duty
! and It so happened that all the majors
Iliad lieon advanced when his turn for
| promotion occurred. A vacancy, in
the lieutenant-colonelcy was on the
(list, however, and the commandant of
I llarrisburg's recruiting office was
nominated lo 1111 the place.
The appointment incidentally means
that the officer will probably see act
ice service in the lueral sense with
in the next few months ns the chances
are that he will be detailed for active
duty on the Mexican border.
Captain Williams said today that he
doubts if he will be ordered to any

ment or on free range. They are active
and good foragers, and from reports
received give good results in large
flocks.
The Black Orpington is noted for
being the most typical of all the Or
pingtons. That is, good-shaped speci
mens of the breed are more numerous
in Blacks than In any of the other
colors. During the past show season
the Black Orpington classes at the
big poultry exhibitions showed even
more uniformly high excellence than
they have previously.
The weights required on this breed
are approximately 8% to 10 pounds
for males and i to 8 pounds for fe
males, and they frequently exceed
these weights. This Is a good, sizable
fowl to meet market requirements
where the breeder raises enough fowls
to have a surplus for sale, and is a
desirable size for the home table.
Incidentally when he leaves to assume
his new duties lie will take with him
the saddle-of his friend Major Nor
moyle, a former quarter-master of the
Fifth infantry whose death occurred
a few months ago. Major Normoyle
gave Captain Williams his saddle just
a short time before he became ill.
Major Normoyle was well known in
this section, particularly in military
circles as he was quartermaster in
charge of the great Civil war reunion
encampment at Gettysburg in 191 3.
Captain Williams had been in
charge of the local station for just
ten years. lie came here in 1906 al
though for five years prior to that
time he had been commandant of the
Riverview military academy at
Poughkeepsie. He entered the ser
vce at West Point in ISRfi and served
In most of the important posts
throughout the United States. He
was retired as a captain in 1 899. A
peculiar feature in connection with
his West Point career is the fact that
he won his appointment from Presi
dent McKlnley when he was a con
gressman. The then congressman
conducted a competitive examination
of Cadet-elect Williams won out. Capt.
Williams resides with his family at
