A billion dozen chickens who peck- ed their way to daylight in the United States last year had incuba- tors her their grand-parents—or step- grandparents, at least, says 'the Brooklyn Eagle. Two billion dozen eggs were produced in that period and a all of them were laid by incubator hens—hens that had themselves beet). hatched in an incubator, by the heat of the gas fame. For gas is replacing the oil lamp on nearly every chicken farm in the country. The gas gives a steady beat, that is susceptible of regulation, while the old oil lamp is uncertain, needs more attention and does not give such a uniform heat. There are numerous proverbs about the busy tittle bee and the industri- ous ant., but the real money-maker is the humble and unsung hen. It is es- timated that the value of the eggs laid in the United States during 1909 was 500,000,000. Ten years ago the value was only about one-fourth so great—a little more than $141,000,- 000 for 1899. The figures give ,some idea of the marvelous growth of the egg industry. This growth could never have gone on until the business reached its pre- sent gigantic proportions without the gas -heated incubator. Antiquat- ed methods could never have kept up• with the wonderful expansion. The old-fashioned oil lamp is almost as much out of dale for hatching pur- poses as is the hen herself. F ornt rl Y the e Ir eed 5 t aces import- ed a very large proportion of the eggs used and exported very few. But the ratio has changed during the last t dcca d, and nosy theCK .. Or(S p far exceed the imports. About 2,500,- 000 dozen of eggs are sent every year to Great Britain front the. United States Curiously enough, the Brit- ish customer does not want eggs with the dead white shell. Ile wants. an egg of a decided brownish tint. There is a decided variation of the g sort of egg in demand, not only In different countries, but in different States of the Union. In New York State the white thin -shelled egg i5 in demand. In Boston they want a. yel- lowish tint to the shell. I:xperi- metts are now under way, on the part of elevens of breeders and fanci- ers in diff& rent parts of the country, y looking toward the control of the color of the egg shell to lit the lif- erent markets. Artifteial Mothers: • In all the best chicken farms-•-tlte really model establislmentswhere nothing but gas is,used to hatch out the eggs, and keep the;broolern warm —the brooding house and ).incubators aLle built il: coznitlnatUon. On the usual model farm the.ineubators are placed in the cellar /00 by 20 feet, 10,000 eggs may he heated to a tem- peeature of 103 degrees fon 18 days. In one large New Jersey farm, 45,- 000 cubic feet of gas is used each month. At this farm the gas is piped directly to the incubator cellar through service pipes, after it has been metered in the workshop. A gas engine is used to crush the material for the,nt,ixed food given to the chick- ens. Tate heat in the incubators is re- gulated automatically by means of a thermometer.. Uniformity of heat has been reduced to such an exact science that 35 percent. more chickens are hatched fr'oni a given t unibee of eggs, on an average, than before the ' old oil lamps were superseded by the use of gas. On the big farm the, whole business is carried on in a most systematic manner. Card racks are maintained, on which are recorded the day and hour at which the incubators are set and the number of ngits that have been placed in the machine: After fourteen days of steady and uniform heat the eggs are taken out of their trays and tested by experts who know how to tell the difference • be- tween the fertile eggs and the ones Web c a wil l not turn n u out a live c chick- en. Usually it is the twentieth day when the first cheep is heard_. As soon o as t Ic f tic s �k• c r ar of tt of the shell l t l a memorandum orand um is malt on ).rather card, and the newlybatched creatur- es are p:'aced in the brooder. '['itis is sometimes called the lioyer, for it is a rough sort of iniita't:ion of the spreadout wings of a hen who • is cov- ering her chicken•,. The hover is tented by the'rueans of air Which ets its temperature from gas, be- tween 90' and 100 (levees. It is at least 1$ hours after e the chickens 'are hatched before they are given food for the first tune rgPheit they are fed every two hours with a r•,nccially prepared food'• Five days after they are hatched they are given their first run in a small inclosure or ard. About Profitable Publicity. We find right -at -hon:&:, instanco, of estimation of the value of advertising manufactured goods, From manufactur- ing headquarters, in the interest of the jobber and the retail merchant e -----through whom the goads reach the public. The C. Turnbull Co., the Galt Knitting Co., the Galt Art Metal Co., the Goldie and McCulloch Co., Clare Bros., 01 Preston, are among the most notable of present large adverti- sers in the big metropolitan dailies. Each Company uses newspaper space liberally in calling popular attention t , the merits of the goods they make. --`e of that they offer their wares to the t cohsu sumer m from the factory direct, but that they want popular recogni- tion of them through familiarity with name and tradee-mark, so that demand may be created and manufacturing be stimulated in proportion. The old-time policy of confining an- nouncem•cnt.s to the purely trade jour- nals has been departed from by enter- prising manufacturer,; (and by whole- salers, too) who find the daily press, that the great public read, the hest medium for exploit ion of their pro- ducts and for acquainting el whom they desire to reach with important intelligence and trade propositions. The principle undr rlying advertising is the sante the world over. We have entered on a new • e.ra, marked by rad - . ail �� , teal changes in' trade and corneuerce.- The age ispast when trade, of neces- sity, found its own. channel: Instead of business coming naturally and .in- evitably :to the house, because:. it .lead. .n't anywhere else eto go, "the house" finds it more and ruo:re necessary- • to bestir itself in securing custom. Even. the Banks now. resort to straight ad- vertising. Only some: of -.the doctors refrain from it. yon alleged grounds of - "professional etiquette," which fessional etii_uette,' 'it has bethr� ).narked; does not always: embrace ad- th vortising at costs me money, So the secret of Profitable T'.irbI•icj ty is being- revealed, .day iii ,and out, wherever the eye rests or the mind centres. The ways_..to t•&aeli the' people are, like the, auctioneer's miller "ether things," "too numer- ous to mcntiolt, ' .The .good news- paper is, perhaps, l•he most. conven- ient and thc..best .publicityemake[. Bet the one. great thing' the advertiser must bear in mind is that feeble, -un- certain, certain, . noit-confident effort to secure 1'rofrtabl.e Publicity. won't gis- ,'re- turns ; while vigorcus, direct, mope- ful-spirited work is sure to. yield ab- undantly. P.S.—And keep . everlastingly at it! About Henry Bou•rassa, the Nationalist. Henri Rourassa, who as leadee o the French Nationalist party, del at - ed Sir R'i';rid Laurier in their first tilt in the Dominicn arena, comets of a prominent Quebec family, being ,the son of Napoleon [lourassa, an author and painter of more than national re- pute. Ile was born in 1868, and in 1886 moved to Montebello, Que., where he soon entered politics. ile was mayor of Montebello from 1890 to 1894, and two years later entered the Commons for Labelle as a Liberal. Ilis ability as an orator in both French and English soon con hila a recognized place in that. body, but his views were radical. In October, 1893, he resigned his seat to vindicate his position on the• war, contending 1•hat the participa- tion of Canada in the South :African by the British Government and its reteles'c'ntatives in Canada, meant an important. change in the Dominion's relations with Great Britain, upon which the people of Canada should be thoroughly enlightened and directly consulted. In the by-election he was e' -elected by acclamation. Ne was again elect- ed at the general elections of 1900 aid 1901. During his membership in the house he continued to press his views, :and later attempted to organize a follow- ing on French Nationalist ideas. in this }:e was sec --gilded by Armand Lae rerne'. Then he heeame interested in Quebec local po'tities, and it came to a point where he attacked Non. Mr. (rurgeon of the Quebec cabinet., of graft. Turgeon, in reply offered to re-. sign if Mr. Rourassa would contest•, Mr. Turge en's seat in fellechasse f against him: Mr..Iiotirassa accepted, • and resigned front the t'ommons. 1Ie was hopelessly defeated. Then followed a period of idleness so far as membership vin art Assennh- ly was concerned hut in the Quebec provincial election of' 1908 he was elected as a Nationalist fol• Si.. Hya- cinthe, and for the St, .lames Divi- sion of Montreal. In St. James he defeated Prettier Cbi.nn, • • Mr. Bourassa in early life began the study of law, but abandoned it.

LrliltOA News -Record Chlldrea's Savings' flacks, The action of the local Sehcol Board in introducing the school children's savings bank, will meet with the ap- provat of parents generally. The read- iness with which the average boy or girl of today spends money as soon as it comes into his or her possesioa is simply alarming to those who have had experience enough of the world to apprceiate the t,mportanee and ad- vantage of habits of thrift .and econ- omy. Modern invention has put with- in the reachof the boy with a f'sv silver coins so many sweetmeats and gewgaws that be no longer gewgaws that he ao sooner possesses a small sten of :honey than he ap- pears to think, "What foolish thing will I buy with tlis?." In this way a habit of seekiut; immediate satis- faction out of money is formed, and carried into tater lite , and let the income be small or great, it all goes as it comes. With such a habit, suc- cess in business or even the keeping of a comfortable home is impossible. Perhaps the spendthrift habit is in large measure due to the .faet that the boy (and let that include the girl) has nothing else to do with available mon- ey but spend it. The children's sav- ings bank will afford them another choice. Advocates of the system very pro- perty ernphasize the advantage of eul- 1 tivatingin the child.a habit of saving with a view to .somethit[g ahead, even snore than the advantage of having a SUM of metier to his credit in the bank. But there is another advantage not generally taken into account'. The money that, children get is not only readily spent but it is spent in ways that are harmful—in :sweetmeats that injure tate health, or toys that are superfluous and of only momentary in- terest. Turned into the banks, the Many small sums make a substantial addition to the available working cap- ital of the country. The one hundred and forty thousand dollars at present on deposit in the children's Penny Savings Bank is sufficient to carry on a large business, and, being in the bank, is available for that purpose. Ithas been suggested that this cult^ ivation of the saving hatr:t may be overdone; and it is true that the man of thrift may develope Into the miser, which is quite as bad as if he had gone to the .other extreme and be- came a spendthrift. But the danger is a negligable quantity and may be disregarded. The strong point with the ehildren's saving bank is this: ' it supplies a needed antidote to the pre- vailing disposition on the part of chil- dren to throw away the ,small sums that come into their possession.— Lucknow.
