MADE THE RUN
IN SIX HOURS

George j. Hawley, manager of
the Glenwood Automobile COM
pany and Waldie Van Buren,.
both former residents of this
city, were arrivals in this city
last night, after n record break
ing run in their auto an "E. Nj.
+. 30" machine.
The running time to this city
was Just six hours. There were
stops at all the little towns
along the line, but the actual
running time from Glenwood
here was as has been said six
hours.
The boys swear that there is moth
ing in the world like an e. NJ. F. 80"
for such trip. They crossed about
twelve or fourteen small water
courses that made the trip rather
unpleasant at times and they say
that If these had bridges there would
be nothing to an auto trip from
Glenwood down here.
AT one place the water came above
their foot board. They did not know
how deep the water was, but they
took a flying run at 1t, taking the
chances on meeting rocks or any
thing else that might be hidden by
the water, but they came through
successfully.
The "E. NJ. F. So is handled in
this city by NJ. C. Ramsey and the
boys say that the machine delivers
the goods every time. They think
that the boards of county commits
sioners might be prevailed upon to
make bridges across the streams be-
tween here and Glenwood and that If
they did SO many would take their
atttnc and falxa tho Il rive tO Glpuwnnd
this summer for stay of day or so.
Messrs. Hawley and Van Buren
will remain in this city until this
evening and win then drive their ma
chine back again. They are visiting
many friends in the city today and
incidentally taking few rides with
friends through the valley.

Now, we believe there is a laying
/ type of hen just as there is milk type
Of COW or a ham type of hog.
/ We have studied some Of our best
J layers in Leghorns and Wyandottes
and hereby give you the principles we
use in selecting layers and breeders
They viii improve your flock and save
you killing your layers for dinner, but
II this. as in everything else, you will
fld exns, ions.
\ prim.' layer must have a well de-
velUped. ruomy body, so that the or
gans of respiration, digestion, repro
duction. circulation. urination, etc,
may properly perform their functions.
She must breathe well, eat well,
digest we'll. asSimilate well. scratch
well. be well and have a big bunch
of embryo eggs TO lay well.
A hen with rafting, rustling breath
Is useless.
\ typical layer is plump; she is mus
cular; all her cavities are covered
with meat
She has simply fat for fuel and
weighs heavier for her size than the
drone whose feed produces n COB of
fat at the end Of her breastbone.
That drone lays the eggs in spring
that hatch the drone pullets.
Follow this table Of points for selec-
ton:
Head, medium size; eye, bright, full,
open; comb and wattes. medium size, !
clear color; neck, medium length, |
stocky, well arched; back medium |
length, broad at shoulders: nice cush- /
Ion; tail, medium size. angular; 1uff |
good size; body. medium length and |
depth. with medium underline and |
good keel; breast, broad, round, full; |
EGGS, stout. short between feet and |
'hanks; feet, set square and wide
apart
Hens Of this style fed a proper
variety of food will keep you busy
hauling eggs to market.
Mated to II male of egg laying strain
such hens will furnish fertile eggs to
hatch pullets that will smash your
egg records.
