The Chicken 13esiness.-Many loca
poultry fanciers have _met with sore
disappointment thus far this season
the matter of hatching chicks, ducks
and goslings. The percentage of chicks
hatched, to the number- of eggs per seta
ting,' in many cases {falls below the
'one-quarter margin. This is very; un-
fertunate, as many loc'al farmers and
rioultry fanciers had intended rearing
very large number of fowl this
season al-ad:feeding the same for the
fall. market.' Asyet however, many
eggs are being set, and much better
results from these; Utter, settings are
hoped for. According to reports from
various quarters the chicks, ducks and
goslings which have been , thatched
are very healthy and doing nicely.
