. From the Christian Herald.

Professor James e. Rice Of the
poultry department OF the State COLI
lege OF agriculture at Cornell university
is Justly proud of his prize hen, Cor
nell Supreme, which laid $50 eggs In
three years, the highest sustained yield
he Knows. The $50 weighed 1913
pounds, or 1852 times the weight Of
the hen, Cornell Surprise, another
years. The remarkable thing about
this hen, is that she laid more egg
each successive year, laying $50 the
first, 1856 the next, and 1876 the third.
This proves, Professor Rice says that
al hen can sustain a high productive
ness for three years, and he thinks
that a race OF longer-lived hens can be
raised to the great advantage OF Ihe
poultry industry Of the country.

HER OLD FRIENDS

Dear Old Journal and Home
Folks. Across the miles which lie
between US, let us speak together.
A Merry Christmas to every one
of, you. The year has been good to
most of US. Have we been glad!
Have we let the work go for a lit
tie while and turned our eyes
away to the hills in thanks for all
blessings which have come to US?
If not, let us do it now.
If God gives one man gold or
fame it is not that they may be
favorities, but in order that they
may be reservoirs through which
he may pour blessings upon the
vast areas of barren human lives.
So let us be thankful and do good
together. We will soon see the old
year gone and passing leaves our
hearts to cheer the we'll beloved
the fair New Year.
