While 1t is not possible to state the
exact average production of eggs per
hen in one year. it is conservatively
estimated in the United states to De
about 70. BY improving methods OF
breeding, feeding and selection, birds
have been found with actual individ-
ual records of 200 to 257 eggs per year.
Only one hen has been found at Cor
nell that laid as high as 257 eggs in a

(National News Association

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 16.-William
c. Bernhardt, defendant from Cincin-
natl, Ohio, was the first witness in the
dynamite conspiracy trial today.
Bernhardt testified that passages in
letters written by him to ]. j. Nc
Namara in 1907 regarding cleaning up

sistance had reference to the COM
plete unionizing of all ironwork in pro-

Another expression "if some stranger
could come around the back way and
tip the job on the Q. T. l am pretty
sure the jig is up" the witness explain
ed meant that if Mcnamara could send
a man from Louisville he probably
could get the contractors to square
the job.

plosion that occurred on work of the
Pittsburg Construction company in

the governments witnesses, that the
carpenters were going to have three
explosions in Detroit, and the Iron

Muncie two or three days after he
left Detroit, but denied Ross deliver
ed him a letter from Quigley, as Ross
had testified on the stand. Cline said
Ross trip TO Muncie was merely for
the purpose of getting job.
