The ma.nagetnerst and brooding of y ung chicks necessitate the maximum of con-, scientious attention in order that .every possible comfort and facility be provided for the rapid and economical develop- ment of the baby fleets. The brooding of chickens is one of the most Critical operations, eapecially foe the beginner. Many poultry -keepers who are able to siecure asood egg yields and fair hatches fail In brooding chickens, eithor by raising only, a. small percent - ago of the ohickens Latched or by Lansing tg rear strong, vigorous birds which develbp into good 'needing stook. Sitting hens should be confined to slightly darkened nesis at hatching time and not disturbed unless they step on or pick their chickens when hatchings, in which case the chickens should be re- moved as soon as dry to a basket line4 with flannel or same other warm meter-, MI, and kept near a fire until all Use eggs are hatched trader a quieter hen' whose egge are hatching at the seine time. An incubator may also am used to keep the earliest hatched chickens warm in ease they aro removed from the nest. If tne eggs hotel' unevenly, those which are slow in hatching may be placed under other hens, as hens bften get restless after a part of the chickens are out, al. lowing the remaining eggs which have not -hatched as soon as the hatching is over. Hens should be fed as soon as possible after the eggs aro hatched, as feeding tends to keep them.quiet; otherwise many hens will leave the nest. - In most cases it is best that the hen remain on the nest and brood the chickens for at least twenty-four hours after the hatching is over. The ten should be powdered with A good ihsect powder before moving her and the chickens to the brood coop. She should be dusted every two weeks or as .eften as necessary until the chickenare weaned. If lice become thick on the ehlakella or ifothey are trimbled with "head lice," a very Ilttle grease, such as lard or vaseline, may be a -polled with the fingers on the head, :leek, under the wino and around the vent.

Furnish small quantittes• of food, barley enough to satify the appetites. of the young fowl, and keep them exercising during the daytime.

Separating all peace issues into two" parts, eastern and western, the eastera is dominated by the approaching prob- lem of what Jepan shall achieve out of the Versailles cenference. Diplo- matists are divided on the, subject of Japanese dominance, some maintain- ing 'that Japan, as the enlightened nation, should be free to bestow the benefits of progreas, while, eaters urge the righkof China to work out its own destiny. The origin- of Japariese claims, is somewhat clouded, being based on what often has. been termed a particu- larly • odious specimea of German diplomaty. In 1897 Germany charged China with responsibility for the deaths of two Gorman missionaries. The names of these 'masons, together With the incidents of Lie crime al- leged, have been last in the succeeding international dispute. At all events, Germany pushed its cue with Guch thrift and vigor that the, Kiao Chau distriet, commanding the rich mineral Provinae of Shantung, with millions of inhabitants, was "leased" to Ger- many for ninety-nine years in expia- tion of the deaths of these suddenly important missionaries. Japan's present interest lies In the fact that as ono of the allies it com- pelled the surrender of Kiao Chau and abolished German sovereignty there. Thus there is established a Japanese claim to the district, This claim seems to be urged in the face of the fact that the German claim and occu- pation were rather doubtful. Japan's position is made further doubtful in view of the American - Japanese agreement of November, 1917, under which aapan concurred in a covenant to preserve the independence and territorial integrity of China. But, although Japaii heaetila accepted this plan, there was in existence, arid still is, a list of demands made on China in January, 1916, whereby China Would suffer the lpss of vast interests and Japan, come, into possession of them. Among the more important of these twenty-one demands are several relat- ing to a virtual eessioh of Shantung, giving to Japan most at the essential DRS. sOPER et MUTE SPECIALISTS Pile*, tezenut, Asthma, Oetarrh.

It will be seen' that under the de- mands China would he virtually con- verted over to Japan.
