It is '<V..e U* -attempt to bnrke the fact and the only reasonable attitude :.i to dispassionately consider the causes which have contributed to an adverse verdict and to lay their ' lessons to heart. The Week has always maintained that the govern ment should have settled the ques- tion-of.:the uniYersity site. Such a jnatter. lay distinct'y within its prerogative and within, its ordinary routine, business. The^magni- tudco.f the question did not in any benso) li'f i; it into another plane.. If the government had dealt with the matter--no-.doubt there would have considerable- conflict, and the subject would lhave-been settled in the political arena, but this-hardly constitutes a valid objection- to the constitution a Imethpd-of. procedure, which was followed when-a matter, o^t^east^ equal, if not of greater importa.nfe^v-^?,dealt with xiz., the location of the^^pTa'rlia- rne.nt buildings. To this extent LheiVy'eek believes that the govern ment .showed some we-.> ;ess and vai -bian-ioworthy, Luc, unlof- tunatciy the- comfnittes which represented Victorian interests, show ed -eve.-, greater weakness, and instead of contenting themselves with ���������& very aTole 'Statement of the cas,e for -the'-.Capital City/,-it stepped entirely outside the^imiits of :1|heir .-authority .in euggesting that the .'question beidjealt -\vith\by an independent, commiss-ion. Such a suggestion furnished the govern ment with an easy method of a- voi.ding ,a ' complicated and ' disquieting problem, and it made it impossible for Victoria to raise any re.a,:^niab!o protest against the decision;. It seems to the Week ih-.it this action on ilie .part of the Victoria committee puts the city i:mlire!y out of court, and there in absolutely nothing to do but to accept the verdict with the "he be.';'. tlie country. The gas .'flame gives a steady heat thatis susceptible of ro������ulat:on-.whi'.o tho oillalmp is un- uncerlain, needs more attention and does- not give such-a- uniform heat.' ��������� -There'are numerous prover.bj a- _biut the busy litt'e bee and the ju- flnsiricus ant.'but the real -money maker is the humble and unsung hen. It is estimated that the value of the eggs laids in the United States 1909 was 500,000,000. Ten years' ago tlie value was only about one- fourth so great���������a little more,than $M-1,000,000 for 1E93. The '-'figure's give &ome idea of the -marvelous growth of tiie egg 'industry. This growth could, never have ginc until the business reached its present gigantic proportions with out iho g-i-s heated incubator. Antiquated methods could never have kept up with the 'wonderful expansion. The old-fashioned oi.'. "anip is almosf: as much out of date for hatching purposes as is the hen its self. Formerly the country imported a very^'large proportion of the eggs-used and exported very few But tho .ratio has changed during tho last decade and now the exports far exceed the imports. A- bout 2,500,000 dozens of eggs are sent evci-y year to Great Britain from tho United States. .Curiously enough the British customer does nofwant eggs with the dead white shell. He .wants an egg of a deliqate brownish tint. ( This is a decided variation of the sort of eggs in demand, not on'y in diffe,renti countries, but in different States of the 'Union. In New York istate-the white thinned shell ed egg is in demand. In Boston they want a yellowish tint to the shell. - Experiments*are now under way on the part of dozens of breed ers and fanciers in various parts of the '{country looking "forward toward -blue control of the color.of egg shell to fit the 'different mar-' t l.-o,f AXLE" GREASE, - .

THE JTUMBLB HEN- ADDS TO NATION'S WEALTH. A -billjon dozen chickens who pecked ".bhefr way to 'daylight in the' United /States last year had incubators for their grand parents ���������or slop grand parents, at least says .the Brooklyn Eag'/e. Two billion dozen eggs (were produced in..'that period and a half of them were, laid by incuba,tor hens���������hens .that had themselves been hatched in 'an incubator, by the heat of the gas flaime. For gas.:is replacing-the oil lamp on nearly every chicken farm in In ' ail' the best chicken farms���������' really model establishment, where nothing but gas is used to hatch but the,-eggs, and to keep the" brooders warm���������the brooding house and incubators are built in combination. On the usual model farm tho incubators arep laced in L-hs eei',ar 100 by -20 feet, where 10,- 000 eggsVmay be heated to a .temperature of 103 degrees for 18 days In one,- large New Jersey far.m, 45,000 cubic fe^it of gas is usedeaoh, .month. At this farm the gas is piped directly to the incubator cellar through service pipes after it has be(en, metred in the workshop, gas eingine is used .to crush the ma terial for..the mixed food given tov the chickens. The heat in the incubators is regulated automatical ly by means of a thermometer. Uniformity of heat had been reduced to such, an exact .science that 35 par-cent.-more chickens are hatched from a given number of eggs, en an average, .than ^before '.he old' oil lamps were Isuperced- by the[ use of gas. In thct big farm the whole business is carried on in a mo3t systematic mainncr. Card racks arc mai,ntaine:d. on Which ar erecorded the' day am -hour at which the incubators .are set and the humber ctf c;ggs,-t-hat -have '/been placed in the machine. After fourteen days of steady and uniform heat the eggs are, taken out of their trays and tested by experts who know how'to toll the difference between the fertile eggs and the ones which [ will not turn out a live chicken. Usually it is the twetieth day when the first cheap is heard. As soon as the chicks are ,out of the shell a memorandum is made on another oard, and the newly hatohsd features are placed in the . brooder. This is sometimes called the hover forit is a rough aortoi, limitation, of .the.fiprea.dout wings of a hen"- who is covering her chickens. The hover is heated by means of air which get.B .its temperature from gas, between,90 and 100 degrees.

At MI ton,- Sept. 28, Judge. Gor- ham, of Haltoh, delvered judgement n' th'e' license appeal case. John Tnanor, of the Stration hotel, Georgetown, was fned some time ago by two Georgetown mags- trates for selljng liquor in quanti- te's greater than .cine quart at a tmie-. Two detectives- swore that thai; 'they -"had asked Tranor's bartender to sell them 'four bottles of a\e\ >in quarts, but he had refused, rto give them more than one each, 'butiftold them to go out and coma back and he would 'sell them another bottle each. They got one each, settled, stepped on .the vera,ndah> returned in a minute or so and-got and paid f jv the second bottle each. The judge decided on .this evidence that there was no connection between the two sales and quashed the conviction with costs -to the appellant. WISE REMARKS There's a difference between looking for work and going after'it Tho easiest way to prove that heat expands is to give the average man a little hot ah*. Make sure (hat however good you may be you have your faults that .however, dull you may ibe you can find out what they are. and that however slight they may be. y/ju would better make some pat font 'effort to get rid of them ���������Rusk in. We've .known cooking school girls who didn't pan out well. Girls who carry watches in the belts are guilty of wasting their iniiS. Some girls can stand a man who is dissipated if ho fortune, isn't. A girl who has a large circle of frionds generally runs around a good deal. .
