H. Berg had the misfortune to lose
q valuable mich COW last week.
The teacher and pupils of District
No. AZ had half holiday, May Day.
The boys spent their day fishing and
caught number of the speckled
beauties, while the girls walked down
Boone creek gathering flowers till
they came to Mr.. Rlch's place and
then his daughter, Miss Forrest, took
them all boat riding. They also
found a nice place for picnicking.
The girls say, ut was fine, only the
snakes, toads and lizards were so
horrid." Many of them are nursing
bad cold since.
Fishing seems to be the sport of
the season here now. But of all the
fishermen Reubin Chandler is the
most famous, he having caught the
largest number Of river trout.
A number of men from Pocatello
were down to the river one day last

AS regards egg production Of diff
erent breeds, 1t was found at the On
tario experiment station, that thir-
teen Plymouth Rock hens laid 693
eggs, the average cost per dozen be-
ing 500 cents, and during the same
time an equal number of Andalu-
slams laid 835 eggs, the cost per
dozen being 5.34 cents.
In general hens over two years
old, Director w. R. Graham points
out, are seldom god layers. Leg
horns, Minarcas, ETC., are sometimes
good during their third and fourth
years; but generally speaking, the
Rocks and such fowl are of little or
no use as layers after the second
year, being much inllined to become
excessively fat.
For summer egg production the
lighter breeds or late1hatched pull
lets of the heavier breeds are best.
Do not expect hen that has laid
well during the winter to lay ex-
ceptionally we'll during the summer"

Poultry Pointers

Some breeds, and certain strains OF
nearly all breeds, will lay under more
adverse circumstances than the gem
eral run of hens. This is due to their
docility and great vigor. a strain OF
rens that have for generations been
allowed free range, will not do rs
well in close confinement as those
that have been for generations re-
strained. Some of the more docile
breeds do not seem to care much
whether they are allowed to run or
are confined. They lay about as well
under one condition as another, If
they can be made to exercise sufIi-
ciently to keep down an excess Of
fat.
We need not look to any one breed
for all the good layers. We can find
them in any breed and there is not
much difference between the best lay
ing strain of the various breeds. The
laying trait Is not breed character
;stic, but rather that OF II strain or
family. Some breeds produce their
eggs at less cost for feed than 9th
ers, but the best strains of those
known as the practical breeds will
all lay very nearly the same number
of, eggs in u year. The laying con
tests prove this.
