Chicks hatched by the Incubator (if Iucubator is operated right) are inn as easily raised as if hatched iu Nature's way. We have had 12 years' experience on Incubation, and the Chlcke we send Out nee Incubated right, In order to satisfy ourselves which was the most profitable, cows or hens, we are keeping account of one newly freshen- ed cow and 76 pullets. These pullets were operated under the trap nest and at no time was there more than 05 of them laying, We kept account of the '75 pullets as it cost about the same to feed this number as it did the cow. Cow was fed on the very choicest of feed—Alfalfa, ensilage, marigolds, out chop, bran and shorts. In December the re- turns from the sow amounted to $3100, and from the pnllets $87.00 ; in Jemmy retnt'ns from cow were $35,00 and from the pullets $77 00. In these two months it coat $85 00 to feed the cow and $33 00 t0 feed the pullets—a clear en profit of 881.00f P t of the cow n 1 nd04.00 for r the pal- lets, From Ibis it would appear that the hens are much more profit- able.
