This is an im- portant point in the préduction of good Dullets. The cockerels, being larger and stronger, will present the pullets from getting their fair share of grain and this means that the pullets wiil be put still farther behind in th of growth. Then the fact chickens' are growing all means that the houses will soon . be overerowded if some are not removed to new quarters. The removal of the erels can be made at just the pro- per time to prevent this congestion.

Chickens up to ten weeks old are killed by the poison in the rose bee- tles, for these brown sprawly beetles act ‘upon the chickens as “toad stools” act upon people who eat them. ‘The rose beetles are very attractive to the chickens and they will feed on them until their crops are filled with the inscets. Chickens die in from ten to twenty-four hours after eating the beetles. There have been some large looses each’ year from dhickens having fed upon these insects in this state. Some- times owners have opened the bulging crops of the chickens and‘found there the ‘cause of Ceath while others have ascribed the cause of death of several other causes.- > At present we / have no ‘cure for chickens that have fed on these in- sects. For that reason we offer ithe suggestion that those who raise chick- ens.not use grapevines in the runs for sbade, that they should guard against the chickens feeding in flelds where the raisies are abundant during these three weeks when the rose beetles are most numerous. We might add. that ducklings and young turkies -are also killed Dy feeding on these Insects DUCK RAISING. Much Easier to Brood Them Artifici ally Than to Raise CHickens That Way. On all large duck farms it is cus- tomary to hatch duck eggs artificially, but on the average arms this will not prove as satisfactory as to hatch then. with the mother hen. Pekin and In- dian runners which are the most comi- mon in this yicinity seldom sit. Con- sequently, ii'is necessary to use the hen if the natural method of incuba- tion is to be followed. The period of imcubation for duck eggs is one weei longer ihan that of hens’ eggs. It is therefore necessary to have a strong, vigorous hen for a sitter. 9 to 11 duck eggs should be put under one hen, depending upon the size of the hen' and the season of the year. It uvsually takes ducklings from 24 to 48 hours to hatch after they pick the shells. It is therefore advisable to al- low the hen to get off the nest for feeding and water when the first duckling picks the shell, then com- fining her to the nest until the hatch is over. Duck eggs need much more moisture than hens’ eggs and it is necessary to sprinkle them with warm water for a day or two previous to, the ‘hatch, even when they are set under hens. When placed in incubators it is necessary _that a large amount of molsture be supplied: The temperature at which to hatch duck eggs in Incubators is one de- gree lower than the same machine would require to hatch hens’ eggs. Ducks = are much easier ' to brood artificially than chickens and they may also be raised under 'hens. If raised by ‘the later method it is wise to confine the hens and allow the ducklings free range as the hens ‘are liable to wander too far away with their broods. 1f ducklings are to be sold as green ducks, they should not be allowed much range, but If they are to be kept for breeders or for late roasters the range will help to ‘more hange the pullets to their winter | 5.8 §ii : g g ition. three pens in- each of the principal breeds are as follows: Plymouth Rocks. 1178 © and - Terrace|’ Wya indottes. 20 Obed G.

Description of, Way in Which Many Do Their Work. 1148 Numerous questions have been ask- ed concerning the way in which can- ning is done, The method - which, many of the clubs are using is known as the cold-pack method, and the fol- lowing information, taken ‘from one of the government bulletins, answers many of these questions. By this cold-pack method all fruit and vege- tables can be successfully sterilized in one period. This eliminates the three- day process which was formerly used by many women. In the canning of fruits, the fruit is prepared as though it were to be cooked for sauce. It is then packed in clean, sterile jars. The jars are filled with the hot sirup, the rubber put in place, the 1id adjusted and the jar partially sealed. These Jjars are then placed in the wash boil- er on the rack, then covered with wa- ter and boiled for the required num- ber of minutes. The time is counted in this process of sterilization from the actual time when the water begins to boil. At the end of this process of sterilization the jar is removed and e cover tightened. Vegetables are blanched and dipped in cold water before they are packed in the jars. Blanching means _the plunging of the vegetables in_boiling water and allowing them to boil for the required number of minutes. time varies for different vegetables and also for different conditions. If the vegetable is old and not in the best of condition a longer period of blanching is required. A wire basket or cheesecloth bag in which to place these vegetables while they are being' blanched is a great aid. ~ There are three reasons for this blanching pro- cess. It helps to eliminate objection- able acids and flavors. It reduces the bulk of vegelable greens. It does away with the intermittent process in canning. which is the process of cook- ing a certain length of time one- day and repeating this operation on three successive days, ‘This blanching process is followed by cold dipping. This means to. plunge the products into cold water after blanching, and it is done immediately after removing them from the hot water. The reasons for this cold dip- ping ~are to coagulate the coloring matter, making it more difficult to dissolve during the period of sterili- zation, to harden the pulp under the skin, thus permitting the removal of the skin without injury to the pulp and to make it easier to handle the vegetables in packing the jars. The next step after the blanching and cold dipping is the packing of the vegetables in the jar. The jars be absolutely clean. Any good may be used, but if the jars are to be bought it is well to select clear glass and jars -having a large mouth. The jars ‘should be about the same tem- Perature as the product which is to be packed in them, in order to avold danger of breakage. The jars should be packed quite closely leaving few Open spaces.

Councilman Bdwara Crooks asked if @Te| the extension service has been used extensively and said he thought that the prosecuting attorney’s = telephone ought not to be included in the party line service as there might be private business which the prosecuting attor- ney might not like to discuss over party line. In answering Councilman Crooks Mayor Brown read a list of the city’s telephones which have the extension service. He then said that he under- stood that most of the business trans- dcted over the prosecuting attorney's residence telephone is the matter of taking bonds. G Councilman Murray i the passing of the resolution would mean the removal of all extension service used on city’s telephones. Mayor Brown saig- it did not as it includes only those lines mentioned in the resolution. The resolution was then unanimous- ly passed by the eouncil. The matter of the appointment of a commissioner was then taken Alderman Baildy Introduced a ed shail receive $125 a month compensation, and that he continue_in office until such time as the court of common council shall appoint someone to succeed him. Councilman Babcock seconded the resolution and it was George E. Fellows Elected. Councilman Murray then presented the name of Joseph H. Henderson for the office of street commissioner and Councilman Walter F. Lester present- ed the name of George E. Fellows for the same office. These were the only two nominatea for the office. The names were balloted upon and the count showed a total of 13 votes cast of which eight were in favor of Mr. Fellows and five in favor of Mr. Henderson.. Mr. Fellows was declared ciected under the ballot. Petition for Sewer Connection. Clerk Arthur G.
