s27 EGGS IN SEVEN DAYS

1 have been breeding Barred Ply
mouth Rocks for heavy winter layers
since 1901. and have seventy-eic pull
lets that are doing fine work. These
pullets were Matched in March and
April, and as chicks were kept in
hrooders In the orchard until ten weeks
old. At that age they were put in COL
ony coops on little range of a quarter
acre of meadow land. on which were
three apple trees for shade. In Septem-

whitewashed and refilled with fresh
earth my breeding house, and put these
seventy-eight pullets into 1t, giving
them the full run of the house and
yards. I kept them on a growing ra-
tion, with plenty of green feed from
the garden. 1 got few scattering eggs
In September; in October l got 203
eggs. During this month they were not
fed an egg ration. but instead were
given their regular growing ration with
a little more corn added For Novem-
ber they gave me S37 eggs. Beginning
about the middle of November, I began
gradually to change their feed to a Law

first seven days of December was AZ,

buff, partridge and penciled varieties.
that have been given the name of Ply
mouth Rocks.
In California, as elsewhere, Rocks
are the general utility fowl, and are
favored by the masses whether bred
for show or profit.
Rock Standard Changes
1t is very seldom that a Plymouth
Rock pullet that has laid her first egg
can win over one of equal quality that
is not quite so well matured. They are
usually in their best show condition
just before they begin to lay. At this
time many pullets that afterward
make standard weight hens do not
weigh more than six pounds. For this
reason the revision committee con-
sidered it advisable to recommend that
the weight for pullets of all varieties
of Plymouth Rocks be reduced from
six and one-half pounds to six pounds.
This change was adopted at Niagara
Falls.
In the present Standard the descrip-
ton of back of female reads as fol-
lows: Broad, rather long. rising with
a gentle incline to tail" This descrip-
tion might apply to a fowl with the
back line perfectly straight from neck
to tail, whereas our best females show
a slightly concave outline. The back
description in the new Standard will
read as follows: Rather long, broad
its entire length, fiat at shoulders, ris-
ing with a slightly concave incline to
the tail"
If one will study the shape descrip-
tion and ideal cut of the Plymouth
Rock female and compare them with
the shape description and cut of the
Wyandotte female it will be readily
seen that there are few points of sim
ilarity between the two. The Standard
describes both the body and back of
the Plymouth Rock as rather long"
and makes no provision for a cushion.
The Wyandotte Standard, on the con-
trary, describes both the body and
back as short" and further describes
the back as "rising in a concave sweep
to broad. slightly rounded cushion"
With so wide margin of difference
1t would seeem that no breeder or Judge
need confuse the two types. 1t is a
fact, however that during
the last five years Barred Rock females
bearing no shape resemblance to

along this line, as the winners were
of good type, but previous to that. on
one or two occasions, the decisions
were apparently made on color and
barring entirely, without reference to
shape or condition. One OF the win
ming females at Chicago last winter,
although of good color and barring.
was far nearer the Wyandotte type
than the Plymouth Rock In length of
body and back shape.
The Plymouth Rocks. as described
In the Standard, come very close to the
best utility type both for egg produc-
tion and table fowls They should be
bred close to that type A female ap-
preaching the Wyandotte in shape. no

tive In plumage. should never be Sc
lected as the best representative of the
variety in a show where there are
plenty of typical females. The Judge
who commits this error starts many an
inexperienced breeder on the wrong
road and gives him much work to undo
in the future. = Reliable Poultry

either the ideal cut or the printed de-

10000 GET WAGES RAISED
Standard Oil Adds Many Millions to
Pay Envelopes Of Its
Employees.

New York.-A voluntary wage in.
crease that will affect approximately
10000 men has been made by the
Standard Oil Company. The remark
able increase to workmen, who in the
entire history of the concern have
never been on strike, ranges from
6 to 10 per cent.
The order is retroactive and be-
came effective May l. 1t is estimated
that the company will add from &c.
100000 to $4,000, 900 to its annual
roll expense.
The new scale affects employees en-
gagged in the company's works and fac
tories, but the office men will not be
benefited by this increase. Most of
the employees who will get the in
crease are laborers, and the advance
applies to all the subsidiary compa-
MES in the United States.

COVERS TRIP IN TWO HOURS AND
A HALF, WINNING A $4,000
PRIZE FOR THE FEAT.
COMES TO EARTH AS
LIGHTLY AS A PIGEON
Sails High Over Poughkeepsie Bridge,
Dipping at Times Within Fifty Feet
Of Hudson's Surface-one Stop Is
Made in the course-AeropIane Is
Caught In Gust and Drops Fifty
Feet.

New York City.-Grenn H. Cur,
tiss flew from Albany to New York
City in an a~eroplane, winning the
10000 prize offered by the New York
World. He covered the distance of
$50 miles in two hours and ~thirty-two
minues, and came to earth as calmly
and as lightly as a pigeon.
His average speed for the distance
fl and 2-3 miles an hour-sur-
passes any record ever made by an
aeroplane in long-distance flights, and
In its entirety his feat, perhaps,
eclipses anything man has attempted
In a heavier-than-air machine.
Weather Conditions Were Ideal.
The start was made from Albany at
1908 o'clock in the morning, under
weather conditions as neal perfect as
the most fastidious aviator could de-
mand. One hour and % minutes later
he had made his stopping place near
Poughkeepsie, where there was an
hours intermission. Resuming his
fight at 1926 O'Clock, he sped south
ward and landed within the boundary
of Manhattan Island at 1875.
Only 100 yards north of the point
on where his craft settled stretched
Spuyten Duyvil creek, separating
Manhattan island from the mainland.
Had he failed to cross this his flight
would have hnon in tyoin hut ne no
swept over it, the prize was his.
Thence to Governors island was
but a within of triumph, and the con-
Guiding lap of a race already won.
Paulhan's fight from London to
Manchester, 1856 miles, exceeded the
Curtiss feat in distance; but not in
speed and danger. The ~Frenchman's
average was 44.3 miles an hour, and
below him lay English meadow land.
Curtiss followed the winding course
of the historic Hudson, with jutting
head lands, wooded slopes and treach-
erous palisades. He swung high over
the great bridge at Poughkeepsie,
dipped at times within so feet of the
rivers broad surface, and jockeyed
like a falcon at the turns.
Only once did the craft show signs
Of rebelliqn. This was off, Storm King
near WestRoint, where, at a height
of nearly 1000 feet, a treacherous
gust of wind struck the planes. The
machine dropped like a rock for so
feet, and tilted perilously, but Cur
tiss, always cool, kept both his head
and his seat, and by adroit manipula-
ton of his levers, brought renewed
equilibrium to his steed.

from the ground as those on an ordi-
nary street car.
Six girls propel the car at a good
rate of speed around the track. At
certain points there are Stations"
where other girls are waiting. There

stayed the execution of Robert Davis
of Kansas City and George Albert
Jackson of Mississippi county, both
negroes, until June 10. Both were to
have been hanged Friday, May 81.
The execution of Davis was stayed
because a question as to his sanity
has been raised. The respite was
granted to Jackson because no appeal
was taken to the supreme court in
his case, and doubts have been ex-
pressed as to his guilt. He is only
20 years of age, and was convicted of
attacking an aged white woman.

the Mayor Of Koepenick, although the
imperial authorities, who do not relish
that sort Of humor, sent him to prison

that the "joke" has a serious side.
Uncle Sans laws forbid the admis-
