Breed for Egg Production.

idea whether the hens that you are
breeding from are good layers or not
unless you keep record of the num-
ber of eggs that each one lays. Some
of the most important requisites, in
attempting to breed up in this respect
are discussed in an article i'm The
Feather:
Many years ago we were content
with the hen that produced twenty
five or thirty eggs in year. When
the statement was made that hens
could produce a hundred eggs, it was
declared absurd. Then the suggestion
was made i'm the columns of this paper
that the 2OO-egg ben was near at hand.
Considerable comment was caused by
this, yet there are many proofs at
hand that hens have produced in one
year, under perfectly good manage
ment as many as 200 eggs.
There are not nearly so many of
these as there should be, nor as there
could be, if people would carefully
select their breeding stock for that
particular purpose. We have before
us statement of several pens of
fowls. One produced an average
OF 120 eggs, two others about 80 eggs,
one pen 1SS eggs, another pen about
200. Eggs were hatched from each of
these pens, and the best egg-prOduc-
ing pullets of all that were hatched
came from the hens which laid the
eggs i'm the pen that averaged 200 eggs
per year.
We know what a terrible strain it
is upon the constitutional vigOr of a
hen to produce as many as $50 to 200
eggs in year. This is most likely
to be done by pullets in their first year.
and we believe that if these same
pullets would be properly cared for
and kept into the spring of their
second year as hens and not worked
too hard for the egg production, the
eggs from them would establish a
line of producing poultry that it
would be hard to overcome.
Much more attention is given to
selecting the stock from which fine
milch cows are grown than we recon-
mend for producing a laying strain of
poultry When the time comes to
hatch the chicks in the spring. many
of us are much too anxious to place
the first eggs we can lay our hands
on under the hen to be hatched or into
the incubator as may be; but if we
would select in advance these heavy
egg-prOducing pullets of the year be-
fore and keep them for the express
purpose of laying the eggs from which
to hatch our laying pullets for the
next winter, we would be surprised
at the startling increase of egg yield
that we would have as result of
such selection.
Pullets Matched from eggs that come
from hens that only produce thirty
five or forty eggs a year do not in
herit the laying instinct, rather would
they inherit the propensity of the
mother hens not to lay many eggs.
While on the other hand, eggs from
the continuous and large egg producers
would be pullets that would inherit
the laying propensity, and that would
naturally become large egg producers
themselves
That like will produce like is a very
old saying. 1t is a saying worthy of
consideration in the poultry business
Hens that are heavy egg producers
are more than likely to produce their
own kind, while hens that are poor
egg producers are doubly certain to
produce those less prolific than them
selves.

 Our friend Woods, of the White County News, has almost ripped his shirt in his opposition to this bill, and in several misleading ar ticles, in which he not only fails 10 tell his readers the real facts, but on the contrary makes several er- roneous statements, has diligently opposed this proposed measure, and our friend Izard, of the St. Francis County News, who sncezes whenever Bro.

Thieves Getting
In Their Work
BOLD THIEF ENTERS
HOUSE IN DAYLIGHT

This morning some time between
9 and - O'Clock, some thief entered
I the Abbott residence on the corner

I families reside, and deliberately ran
sacked the apartment occupied by
Mr.. and Mrs. VI. NJ. Anderson and
Mr. and Mrs. \. r.. Marks.
Mrs. Marks and Mrs. Anderson
We're attending to some household
duties in the basement of the big
residence and no one was in their
rooms for about two hours.
When the ladies went upstairs
they entered Mrs. Alderson's apart
ment. and 20 their utter amazement
found that the.rooms had been ran
sacked from top to bottom. The
drawers of the big dresser We're
pulled open and the contents scat
tered over the floor.
Mrs. Anderson at once thought of
her pocketbook containing hand
some sum of money, which she had
placed on top of the tall dresser.
However. the thief had evidently
been frightened away before he could
secure this. or else overlooked it.
for it was still i'm its place.
On going to Mrs. Marks room the
ladies found that the bold fellow had
been through her rooms also. Mrs
Marks had left her pocketbooll, CON
tanning several dollars, ON top of her
trunk. and this she found behind
the trunk, the thief having evidently
hurriedIy raised the top of the trunk
and the pockethooll falling over he
hind it did not attract his attention.
The contents of the trunk were scat
tered.
Every drawer and case in the
rooms had been ransacked by the
thief. and he secured a small amount
of money, but fortunately missed
getting hold of either of the pock-
etbooSs. which is something remark

No suspicious character was seen
to enter the house. but as tine two

WISCONSIN STATE FAIR u
The Dates are Sept. Il to is To Be q

The Wisconsin State Fair will
be held at Milwaukee Sept. 1915,
opening on Monday and closing
the following Saturday. It is

greatest Fair ever held in the
State of Wisconsin. The State
Board of Agriculture has been ex-
erting its utmost efforts to make
the fair Of 1905 superior to any
fair that has been held, and with
the strong list of attractions, they
have reasons. to believe that all
previous fairs in this state or in
this part OF the country will be
exc4lIed.
The racing purses are larger
than ever before, aggregating $685.,
ooo, and including two purses of
SIS 900 each and two of S2,5co
each. Many Improvements are
being made to the grounds, in
Guiding the erection of the NAM
moth stock judging amphitheater
which is to be used in the day
time for stock judging events and
in the evening for entertainment
features. The building will be
formally dedicated on the open

educational features OF the fair,
which will be greater in number
and more complete than ever be-
fore, there will be a great variety
of entertainment features, all Of
which have been secured at a
