into some hard luck with the result we 
got very poor returns. With the growth 
of the day-old chick business w T e have 
turned to that source of supply. As a 
result we have a much finer flock than 
originally because the man we buy from 
has specially selected laying strains. 
We wouldn’t think of going back to 
doing our own hatching. Furthermore, 
we know exactly how many chicks we are 
going to get. Our little daughter says 
that the mail man hatches out our chicks. 
—E. A. V., New Jersey. 
American Agriculturist would like 
to have more letters from readers on their 
experience with day-old chicks. The re¬ 
sponse on “ What Breed I Prefer ” has 
brought many, many letters. There is 
evidently no best breed. What about baby 
chicks? —The Editors. 
SILVER LACED WYANDOTTES 
FOR US 
O UR favorite breed of poultry is the 
Silver-laced Wyandotte. Perhaps 
one reason for our liking them so well is 
that we have raised them for so many 
years that they sort of belong in the 
family.' We have had other breeds at dif¬ 
ferent times, but somehow never kept them 
long. The Wyandottes and especially the 
Silver, always seemed to suit the best. 
Where can you find a prettier fowl? 
With their black and white lacing, bright 
red combs and yellow legs, they certainly 
can’t be beaten for looks. And when you 
want one to eat, then you have something. 
One large fowl will make a good meal for 
our family of eight. One of our friends 
taking dinner with us remarked, “Why, 
it’s like a turkey.” There is always 
a ready market for our broilers and older 
fowls too, and at a few cents a pound 
more than is paid for the smaller breeds. 
And as layers they are hard to beat.—■

In Honor of the Plow and the 
Plowman 
{Continued from page lf5) 
warehouse of the editor of the American 
Agriculturist. 
Farmer A says to Farmer D, these are some¬ 
what different plows from such as you and I 
used to plow with when we went to the woods 
and cut down a winding tree, and split out 
a mould board and hewed off the splinters, and 
then nailed on the blade of an old hoe, straps of 
iron, sometimes an old worn-out horse-shoe, 
etc., etc., to keep it from wearing out. Yes, 
indeed, replies Farmer D, I well remember 
when I was about 16 years old (he is now up¬ 
wards of 70) my father had a kicking plow. 
Do you know what a kicking plow is, boys? 
Well, I will tell you. It was so constructed 
that when the point of the share struck a stone 
or rock, of which we have plenty in my country, 
it would fly up behind, and the handles strike 
you under the chin, or sometimes the end of 
the mould board would bark you on the shin, 
making you cry out ah, or oh dear! which 
he set me at work 'with, and left home on a 
short journey. After getting a few thumps 
I began to philosophize, and pretty soon 
turned my oxen into the pasture, took a 
shovel and axe, went into the woods, dug up 
a small ash tree by the roots, to be sawed in 
two for handles, taking the next cut for th ■ 
beam, and so on, until I had all the material 
for a new plow. By dinner time, next day, I 
had my plow ready for operation, and at it I 
went. It worked to a charm—for I had so 
balanced the parts that I had no more kicking. 
The moon shone the following evening, and I 
plowed on, fearing the consequences of not 
meeting the expectations of my father, in the 
quantity of land plowed on his return, which 
was on the third day. He came into the field 
immediately. “Well, David,” said he, “you 
are turning it up pretty handsomely; but what 
have you there, my son?” I held down my 
head, and talked to the oxen. “Never mind,” 
said he, “only be careful in turning about, for, 
if the oxen once get sight of your plow, it is so 
handsome, they will clear the field, and you 
may never see more of them!” 
The early bird catches the worm, so does the early chick 
lay the high price egg in the fall and winter.
