New Student: llxtensive, intensive andpretensive. — Ex. Add Expensive. Incubator Chicks on Range. W hen incubator chickens are from s toHI weeks old, we give them a free ranee,and feed them from hoppers, which arefilled once a week. These hoppers havetwo compartments, one for the meal mix-ture and the other for the cracked poultrymen water their chicks onlyonce a week. They use a good-si/ed bar-rel, fill it with water, and haul it to ashady place where it will keep cool. Thebarrel is fitted with a tap, which is set to let the water drop into a pan justfast enough to keep up the .supply with-out waste. — C. K. , ExperimentStation, Crookston. 4
