This year the general fertility was the some during the months of March and May, namely, 8$4.3 per cent. April gave a slightly less fertility of 81.3 per cent. In the percentage of ferâ€" tile eggs hatched. the month of ‘April was 1 per cent. higher than May and $ per cent. higher than March and in the percentage of total eggs. hatched, May was the fraction of 1 per cent. higher than April, whereas March was 6 per cent. lower than May.. In the percentage of chicks that were hatchâ€" ed that lived,. March was 1 per cent. higher than April, but April was 8 per cent. higher than May. The difâ€" ficulty with the May hatched chicks, especially those hatched late in the month in the central portions of Canâ€" ada, is that the warm weather of Juâ€" ly and August is hard on them. The total number of eggs required to proâ€" duce one growing chick was one egg more for March and practically the same for April and May, so that again this year, taking the growth of the chicks into consideration, April has been the best month for hatching chicks throughout the whole Dominâ€" ion. _ Comparative Haiching of Breeds There are three general purpose breeds used largely on the Experiâ€" mental Farms, the Barred Plymouth Roceks, the White Wyandottes and the White Leghorn. The average fertiliâ€" ty for the breeds throughout the sysâ€" tem is: Leghorns 95, Rocks 83.4, and Wyandottes 73.2, and the average hatching this past year was: Leghorns 54, Wyandottes 47.8 and Rocks 44.4. This again, though it gives a compariâ€" son, must not be taken as absolute from the fact that pedigree work inâ€" terferes to no little extent with the work of hatches. In this comparison it must be reâ€" membered thatâ€"only the best of the pullets are used for breeding purposes and these are well matured, started laying early and are not forced for egg production. The figures show that such pullets compare very faâ€" vorably indeed with older birds. The average fertility from hens was 82.5 per cent. and from pullets 80.7. The average hatch for hens was 44.9 per cent. and pullets 45.2, that is, though the fertility was slightly higher in the hens, the hatch was slightly betâ€" ter with the pullets, but in the total eggs set the hens beat the pullets by prearly 1 per cent. This comparison must be taken,. however,. as noted above, in that these are not late hatched or pullets of various ages, but well matured, strong, vigorous birds. Small versus Large Machines The lamp machines gave a trifle better general hatch than did ~the mamimoth machines, the smaller maâ€" chines hatching against the larger machines as 52 is to 45. This does not take into account the cost for la~ bor, and if this were considered, it would certainly moreâ€" than overâ€"balâ€" ance the handicap which the mamâ€" moth machines underwent. As a rule, on the Central Farm and the various Branch Farms throughout the Dominion, the most upâ€"toâ€"date appliances for incubating and broodâ€" ing are used that can be procured. There are also used local appliances which may be put on the market at various points throughout the Dominâ€" ion. Many of these appliances are purely experimental and often prove more or less unsatisfactory, but are tried for the good of the industry. Locally made and sold appliances are tried out for the same purpose and the idea is to be in a position, as far In brooders, small lamp hovers to accommodate from fifty to one hunâ€" dred chicks, stove brooders to accomâ€" modate from two hundred to five hundred chicks, and continuous pipe brooders have all been used and each will give satisfaction for the particuâ€" lar work for which it is adopted. zraswpossible, to recommend the best appliances for the locality surroundâ€" ing each farm. â€" In incubators we have tried practiâ€" cally every make of small lamp maâ€" chine, electric machine and mammoth machine with varied success. â€" The sizes have run from as low as fifty eggs to ten thousand, one only of the latter size being used, which up to the present has not proven satisfacâ€" For a small number of chicks, less than one hundred, that are not being brooded by natural means, a lamp brooder _ properly.â€" constructed _ and placed in a small colony house is quite satisfactory. For early chicks whenâ€"the weather /is very cold, and for experimental feeding of small lots of chicks, the continuous pipe system is well adapted. . For commercial brooding there is none as good as the colony brooder stove. f Breeding Stock The system followed on the Branch Farms in breeding is that for the first year pullets are tested by the trapâ€"nest. _ The best of these may be bred, but the principal work is conâ€" ducted with hens that have proven themselves good layers as pullets. tory Electric machines are easily operatâ€" ed, but as a rule, expensive. For small machines up to two or three hundred capacity, those heated by lamps have given the best general success. For mammoth machines, coal has proven the cheapest means of supplying heat. * Pedigree breeding is conducted alâ€" most exclusively in that individual eggs from the best birds are set. The chicks hatched from these are leg banded, and by the time they are a month old the small leg band is sealâ€" ed into the wing, where it remains throughout life. ; In the following comparative reâ€" sults obtained last year on the Experâ€" imental FarmS the foregoing must be taken into consideration in that the work is largely experimental and pedâ€" igree breeding is conducted. The hatches therefore are not as good as would be expected under strictly comâ€" mercial conditions, but the compariâ€" sons made will give a fairly accurate idea as to the relative values.

FARM AND HOME Hens versus Pullets Time of Hatching TIMES & GUIDE, WESTON Puree of Turnips with Cheese Peel the turnips. Cut \them up small, so that they may cook more quickly, and boil them in a small portion of water till they are quite tender. _ Melt in your saucepan a piece of butter the size of an egg. Stir into it two good tablespoonfuls of flour, and, as soon as the mixture is smooth, add the turnips and beat,. Canadian conditions compel vigiâ€" lance and_ alertness. Every year, apiaries in which delay and neglect hold sway are going to pieces through starvation, swarming, loss of queens, weak colonies, foulâ€"brood, and the final phase, the destruction of the combs by wax moth, while upâ€"toâ€"date apiaries are everywhere expanding and multiplyingâ€"a profit and a pleaâ€" sure to their owners, $ F. W. L. SLADEN, Turnips in Brown Sauce Peel the turnips. Cut them into fair sized cubes, and put them on to boil in enough goodâ€"_brown â€" gravy or brown soup to come half their depth in the pan. When they are quite tenâ€" der, drain out the pieces and keep them_ hot. Thicken the liquor with a heaped tablespoonful of cornflour smoothed in a few drops of cold waâ€" ter. Boil for five minutes, stirring all the time. ‘Take the pan off the fire. Put the turnips in a hot dish and pour the sauce over them.. : Onions and Tomatoes 2 large onions, sliced; half cup dicâ€" ed bacon, 1 pint tomatoes (canned), oneâ€"eighth teaspoon celery salt, half teaspoon sugar, salt, pepper. Fry onâ€" ions and bacon slowly until onions are slightly yellowed and bacon is crisp. Add tomato and seasonings. Cook 30 minutes or until onion is well cooked. Serve as a vegetable on toast or for a luncheon or. breakfast dish. Time in combining, 10 minutes. Recipe makes four servings. Time in cooking, 10 and 30 minutes. I asked this question of a successful poultryman. > "Because they go on strike," he anâ€" swered, without smiling. "It‘s the truth," he continued, noting my look of incredulity. "They strike the same as we â€"bumans do, but not for more wages, of course. They strike for betâ€" ter food. Hens must have green food to maixe good layers. * PREPARIEDNESS IN BEERKEEPING Theâ€"season of bee activity proceeds at a rapid pace in Canada. Honey flows start up suddenly and are gone in a few days. Is it therefore imporâ€" tant that the essential requisites of the apiary should be on hand in sufâ€" ficient quantity and. ready prepared for the time when they will be needâ€" ed.. It is better to order them for delivery before time because there may. be considerable delay in their arrival. If you have not figured out your requirements for the coming season, do so now. Have you hives enough to take all the swarms or inâ€" crease expected?~ Have you supers enough to takee care of the large honey crop you are hoping for this year. Have you sufficient foundation to â€"put a full sheet into each frame? Putting together hives, nailing frames and wiring them in such a way that the foundation will not stretch, takes time, and all this work should be done in winter or early spring. Howâ€" ever, the foundation should not be fitted into the frames until shortly before they are placed in the hive. Honey pails for the season‘s crop should be ordered now. Winter cases for next winter may be made now. Plans for theâ€" establishment of an outâ€"apiary should be considered. The successful beekeeper always looks ahead. He makes sure that every colony contains enough stores to carry it through until summer, inâ€" dependent of the uncertain income of spring, and he raises queens during the early part of the clover honeyâ€" flow in preparation for next year‘s crop. â€"His preparations for winter are carried out. thoroughly and in good time. 3 Have Them in Mind When Planning Your Papering & Decorating walls is an easy matâ€" ter provided one keeps a few simple rules in mind. These, says Good Housekeeping, may be stated in a few words: 1. Walls which serve as backâ€" grounds should be free from pattern and neutral in color. 2. Walls intended to be decorative may be boldly figured, but plain fabâ€" rics should then be used for drapâ€" eries and upholstery. Cracklings Quarter cup butter, quarter cup of milk, _1 cup flour,> 1 teaspoon sugar, half teaspoon salt. Sift sugar, salt and flour together, then rub in the butter with tips of fingers. Add milk to make a dough like pastry. Roll very thin, cut in rounds, prick, with aâ€"fork, bake in a moderate oven until strawâ€"colored. . Serve buttered at teaâ€" time. 3. The scaie of the pattern should be in proportion to that of the room, Never use extremely large figures in a small room. .‘‘What‘s the reason hens lay nearly every day when eggs are thirty cents a dozen and refuse to do _ their duty whenâ€" the price _ goes â€"â€"up _ to. Sixty cents?" Buttermilk Custard Pie 1 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, 3 egg yolks, 1 cup buttermilk, half teaâ€" spoon vanilla,~3 egg whites, pastry. Cream butter, add sugar and beaten egg yolks, stir in fresh thick butterâ€" milk, flavoring, . and lastly fold in stiffly beaten whites of eggs. _Line a deep plate with pastry and fill with mixture.

Broad, horizontal panels, __and the horizontal _ divisions formed by wa.nscots and dadoes make a small room appear larger. T. Narrow vertical panels and stripâ€" ed wallpapers tend to make a low ce:ling appear higher. 5. As a rule, the smaller the room, the lighter and, more neutral should be its walls. : WHEN HENS STRIEE TESTED RECIPES DECORATING WALLS Dominion Apiarist An Advertisement in This Paper Will Bring Prompt and Sure Results P meromerammit cce rncarac ue neeinname m mmmme mm o h ucce nc onl _ o oma id e o on e on hk ied romenmanmucmmuummmmemmmmuncemmmmnmensmmmmmmmessmmmmmmmee mss > iR Semens Hale in Cxpdieneser sns io oildbcin abe C alenene s s bemres Ptor mmecmmeomnnnnmemmmunenmumnnccmecmmmsnnnmmme i m pess tntacse 6 Semame on. 1e . ol B e mes n ns ns c faan 84e y iT es‘ | ie e s t || ts B B P p . i ho || ‘ § [ e Fm ~ | ‘ Z4 on |2J 4 & @ saaul J - 6. °0 oo R pa * < ) t «B C cesc trretrâ€"aatntTiifap ~n~tofoft.a, e e es o e e t uie t etaine cce uold aar @ MAIN STREET, WESTON yc, Trade Mark % E { keg'd ” . 0 * f Dad Offers Him One for Passing "Well, now, look here, Bill.
