Those in the business are Harvey F. Hem ingway, N. w. Allyn, w. R. Hoggett and L. H. Whitehead. Each poultryman has brought one hatch out of his incubator, and so far Mir. Hoggett is ahead, having secured one hundred and twenty-five chick ems from two hundred eggs. The score of the other three varies all the way from fifty to sixty chicks. The incubators have been provided with another set of eggs and the second hatch is expected to occur to- day or tomorrow, and the result of the contest is awaited with interest.

These poultrymen expect to have several hundred early chickens on the market.
