Let us understand one thing, l want to
get your buggy business, but / want to
get it right or not at all. | don't want
to make single statement in print about
NV line. or a single job in my line that
cannot be backed up and more than back
ed up with the actual goods. ! want you
to know the Jackson line as the different
line that is actually better than my talk
Let me particularly impress on you this ]:
These buggies are made right, designed
right, finished right. and the Jackson
name plate in connection means the utmost
in goodness quality, carefulness perfec-
ton. honesty Of value and honesty of pur-
pose all the way through. And the price
Is but very little more than the ordinary
kind, high-value but not high price.

800 Hens IN
BIG contest

Storrs, Conn, Nov With a great
cackling and tapping of wings, the
800 hens entered in the International
Egg Laying Competition started today
on the long race, which will continue
one year. There are 100 teams of five
hens each, each team housed by itself
in a separate pen. One substitute is
held in reserve for each pen.
The competition is staged at the
experiment station of the Connecticut
Agricultural College, where a hundred
small frame houses have been erected
to house the competing hens during
the year of their egg-laying trial
Armed guards and savage dogs will
guard the pens day and night, as the
hens are the pick of the world and
immensely valuable. The entries are
from al parts of the United States
and from Canada, Cuba, Mexico. ia
pan. South America and Europe.
While most of the hens have set
cheerfully about their allotted task of
laying as many eggs as possible dur
ing the year, there was evident today
among the occupants of some of the
pens a spirit of sadness and gloom
which argued i'll for their egg-produc-
