CARE OF BREEDERS.
By F W. HALLETT
There seems to
be a tliffei >n< e of A ,
•opinion regarding /i twice
the rare of th<
male birds that
are to be held
over for breeder- * '
a majority advo
cating that the;, jL.
be kept entire's I lit
separate from the
females. Oto <x- r~.
pertetii . with this 10 It t tl‘V
away proved very '
expensive on two
occasions \n ex
ceptional bird of
quality was taken
front the breeding pen the last of June
and kept in a gooi-sized yard and coop
I by himself until the pens were mated
In Janua The eggs from his pen the
season before wore nearly all fertile
the last hatches made in June. Tha
first fifty egg- saved from his pen in
January tested 100 per eent fertile and
we were congratulating ourselves anti
delighted to think that the keeping of
the male bird from the females was the
reason Th. next fifty eggs showd
about 30 pr eent fertile and from that
I day on they got worse, until in March
and April he was unable to fertilize the
eggs from even two hens. We con
cluded that it was his lack of vigor
and discarded him The following year
another valuable bird went the same
way. A friend of ours who was a sort
of well experienced man in the poul
try game gave as the reason the fact
that the bird when given the society
of females after being away from them
bo long went to pieces.
We took his advice and for seven
long years always gave the male birds
two or three cull hens for companions
during the summer time, and never
had the same occurrence again. It
seems to be nature for the fbwls to
have mates all during the season The
quail, pa trldge. and all wild birds,
have this privilege and how many
eggs did you over find in a quail's next
that failed to hatch? 1 believe It is
best to follow nature as near as we
can in the handling of the male birds.
Those females not intended for
breeders we would place in summer In
good-sized flocks and crowd them all
that is poss: ile for the nest egg pro
duction we .an get. Tty to make them
lay enough eg before they start the
moult to at least pay for their keeping
for tip entile year, and if not to be
retained sot winter eggs dump them
upon the market as soon as the slack
comes in > ggs. just prior to their moult.
They can be made profitable for eggs
up to the moulting period; but If not
intended to be kept get them off your
hands as soon as the egg supply gets
low, thereby saving their feed neces
sary to carrx them through the moult.
After all, it i. the close attention to
the littl. things that makes poultry
raising profitable Clean houses and
yards, plenty of good feed in shape of
grain, whole or ground nvat and green
food. Don’t forget the chnfconl and
grit.—lnland Poultry Journal.

Americans Are the Most Gulli
ble Investors in the Whole
World.'
By 3. C. FORBES.
NEW YORK, Aug. 21. —We are In a fair
way to get pure food, on ail sides we are
promised pure politics and only recently a
praiseworthy movement was instituted to
give us pure investments. The American
is- tlie most gullible investor in the whole
world. This chiefly because—at least in
his initial stages—he wants either some
thing for nothing or an absurd lot, for his
money. He still foolishly fancies that
fortunes are being dispensed by obscure
promoters.
♦ ♦ »
At least half a million dollars a day—
probably a full million—is filched from de
luded "investors" by swindlers.
...
The postoffice has done yeoman serv
ice in imprisoning many of these fakirs.
But it can not cover the whole field. It
makes no effort at prevention; it neces
sarily, confines its efforts to curing or,
rather, killing, the guilty. The postal
people can do nothing until the unscrupu
lous promoter has got in his nefarious
work.
« « «
The investment bankers can go to the
root of the evil. They do not have to
wait until the false tree bears fruit. They
can, so to speak, nip it in the bud. And
it is this they propose to do. A very in
teresting series of meetings was held at
the Waldorf recently. Over two hundred
bankers whose chief business is to handle
investments formed the Investment Bunk
ers Association of America. They propose
to establish a bureau of investigation to
which all proposed underwritings will be
submitted.
« * •
The new bureau will give its O. K. to
meritorious projects, but will stamp its
disaproval upon any scheme not worthy
of public confidence and support.
If properly carried out, this plan is
capable of saving the people of this coun
try scores of millions of dollars every
year. Not only would fraudulent enter
prises be rejected, but members of the as
sociation-honest bankers—would be tints
provided with means of thoroughly prob
ing proposals put before them for con
sideration. Sometimes an honorable firm
is misled into lending its name and influ
ence to a project which it believfrs com
mendable, but which full investigation
would have shown to be questionable.
» » M
I was much impressed by the earnest
ness of the bankers who assembled the
other day. More than half of them were
obviously under 35 years of age. I have
seldom or never seen a more inspiring
lot of men—clean-cut, wideawake, ener
getic, intellectual looking, of superior
manners and, if the phrase may be used
of mere males, possessing an unusual
amount of charm, the which J. M. Barrie
taught us in "What Every Woman
Knows" is the one thi.-g reedbjl. all else
being of minor account. The formation i f
the Investment Bankers association, if f
am not greatly mistaken, will mark tlf
opening of a new and better era in Ameri
can finance.
Lest there be some doubt on the sub
ject. let it be here explained very em
phatically that yesterday's gathering was
no Bull Moose convention, no party of
protest. True, the American Bankers as
sociation did not accept the suggestion
that It form an investment bankers' sec
tion. but the parent body, I am assured en
excellent authority, will warmly support
the new body.
The movement is an excellent sign of
the times.
