Show THE LARGE INCUBATOR it Is to be preferred to one of small er capac ty the size of the incubator must be regulated by the operator operators s needs but we believe a small machine does not pay so well as the larger sizes for me the cost or of operation Is nearly as much and less time is required to care for one large brood than several small jnes ones when the beginner can hold the temperature steady and the same in all parts ot of the egg chamber for 24 hours it is safe to put in the eggs these should be carefully selected of medium size and of good shape not elongated nor very large at one end nor flattened the shell should be smooth and firm not thin or porous nor too heavy by the way says the farm and field one should be careful about the place of storage for eggs tor for hatching purposes if it is too cold the germ will be chilled if too warm the germ may begin to grow eggs have been known to germinate at 69 de grees the eggs need not be placed in rows but never should be crowded so that they are piled on each other upon the care of the lamp and the regulation of the temperature depends in a great measure the success of the hatch always supply the lamp with a new wick at the beginning of each in cu bation and fill it late in the after noon tor for then it if anything happens it will be in the daytime never eer handle the eggs after caring for the lamp as there is danger of closing the pores of the eggs |
