A few weeks ago as an experiment he placed nine eggs in a water tight wooden box and placed it in the flume that conveys the water from the wel' to a nearby ditch. In due time he re moved the box and found a live chick en in each egg. He at once began planning for the establishment of a hatchery and chiok- j en ranch on an extensive scale.
