Temperature, ventilation, moisture and change of position are the four fundamental factors in obtaining good hatches in incubators. Changing the position of the embryos during the three weeks of development within the shell is very important. Mother hens, incubating their setting of eggs on the nest, usually move the them at least twice beneath eggs during the day, thus tending to . ed equalize the exposure of each egg to the conditions of temperature, fresh air and moisture, all of which must be uniformly applied to each egg. In the operation of the modern incubator, man can well copy this rule of the hen. Experimental evidence seems to indicate that he can go the hen one better by doubling the number of turnings during each 24-ho- ur period. If hatching eggs are changed in position once every six hours, opti- 'Ihmkd about The Gabble of Tourists.

L. Weaver, of the department of horticulture, University of Illinois, college of agriculture. Planting a number of varieties which vary as to time of maturity is a recommended method of obtaining a succession of roasting ears throughout the season. A good succession of white corn may be had ly planting Howling Mob, Early Ev- ergreen, Stowefls Evergreen, Narrow Grain Evergreen or Country Gentleman at the same time. A succession of yellow varieties may be obtained by using Purdue Bantam, Golden Bantam, (Bancross), Golden Cross Bantam and Yellow or Golden Evergreen. Yield and uniformity are much greater where hybrid seed is used. Hybrids, because of their vigor and possibly because of some inherent resistance, may be less susceptible to bacterial wilt than types. open-pollinat- ed Selecting New Flock Poultrymen who are selecting their new breeding flock, if they are planning on raising their own baby chicks this spring, says D. D. Moyer, of the Missouri station, should retain only those hens which are healthy. Hens which have laid well certainly should be included. Satisfactory future breeders are also indicated by thoroughly bleached skin in the case of yellow skinned breeds, and an old,' dry coat of feathers, a sign of late molting. Pullets to be used should have large, rugged bodies, well covered with muscle and fat. They should show early sexual maturity by well developed comb and wattles, and a large, pliable abdomen with flexible pin bones that are spread apart. A healthy flock should be the aim of all poultrymen. Higher Farming Costs Labor and products bought by the farm in 1937 are predicted by the Department of Agriculture to cause a sharp increase in the cost of farming. Price for feed for live stock and seed will stay high until the crop of the 1937 'season replenishes the present drouth-reduce- d supply. Farm machinery, fertilizer, and building supplies are expected to advance some in price due mostly to the increased cost of labor and material. Hurst.

He promised then to do something for the forgotten man. Remarks were also passed about balancing the budget right away. But the forgotten man figured extensively in the campaign. Then, for awhile, popular interest in him seemed to languish. So many new issues came up suddenly, some, like dyspepsia symptoms, being but temporary annoyances, and some which lingered on and abide with us yet, including Mr. John L. Lewis, the n settee.
