ROOSTER HATCHES EGGS.—A 15-months-old bantam rooster shown mothering chicks which he hatched, after his owner had placed store eggs under him when he showed signs of brooding. The rooster clucks, feeds, hovers over the brood, and scratches for them as any hen would do. All the chicks are healthy and doing line.
