It has long been a custom to say
that pullets should not be bred from,
but a leading utility breeder said re-
cently that he rarely hatched from
anything but pullets, and that they
iaheembeemnsbred better layers than did the
h
A well-known poultry writer in Eng-
land alee confirms this principle that
it is better to breed from pullets than
from hens. He applies the same prin-
ciple to stock breeding, preferring
two-year-old heifers and three-year-
old mares.
It has been objected to for various
reasons. lout one in particular is that
in breeding from young birds it is
impossible to get at their records as'
layers. but an experienced man who
follows this custom says he knows
what their mothers have done.
It is also an old -established idea
fhat, pellets are not reliable sitters,
.but this is not a serious factor. They
may require a little more handling for
a day or two, but that is generally all
there is in it.

getting that guest rourn ready for

Kathleen looked gravely nut of the
window.

ful, as we look at things to -day, but
it stays in my heart always as my

Nancy ran across the room, put her
small hands upon her friend's shoul-

"You!" she cried. 'As if you
didn't know I'd be happy to sleep on
the kitchen table any time to get you
here! There are ways. That very

Kathleen smiled down into the in-

"Do let your overworked conscience

With a laugh Kathleen agreed to be
"nice," and they began to talk about
the color scheme of the library.
But that night a strange thing hap-
pened., Phil was at a chamber of
commerce meeting and Nancy was
alone. She read for a while, but her
book could not hold her. Instead of
printed words she had been seeing per-
sons -a whole procession of them -the
guests of her childhood. They were a
queer lot, many of them, but as she
saw one after another, it was always
with the face turned toward her moth-

Suddenly Nancy realized that Kath-

Harvesting The Me Crop.
The larger the amount of ice packed
in a body the better it will keep. It
will not keep without drainage and
ventilation. The ice -house should
stand on sand or gravel or have ample
artificial drainage put in to carry
away the melted ice; i there is a
drain it should be trapped to prevent
air from entering the house. The
ice must be packed on a bed of saw-
dust or marsh hay two feet deep, and
be packed in a solid layer of cakes that
are sawed with square angles and as
large as can be handled conveniently,
say 22 x 30 inches. Place these on
edge, all one way Med twelve inches
from the sides of the building until
gelid, and if spaces occur between
them fill with pounded ice. After the
upper surface has been levelled in the
same manner, and the sides next to.,
the wall filled with sawdust trapped
hard, place the next layer. This is to
bo continued 011111 the house is full,
say to within three feet of the eaves.
Over the top of the ice place eighteen
inches of sawdust. Above must be
plenty of ventilation.
As mild weather approacbes, the ice
should be inspected two or three Mines
a' week and the side packing kept
tramped hard, to make sure that no
ventilating tunnels occur in the saw-
dust, for these quickly waste a ton of •
ice. A stick may be needed to
putsch dem sawdust into such spaces.
As the sawdust is taken froin the top
to fill around the sides, more must be
put om keeping it eighteen inches
deep; but as ice is removed, see that
sawdust does not accumulate mach
deeper than that, as it will generate '
heat and the ice will not be ventilated
and will waste vapidly.
