INTERNATIONAL EGG
 LAYING CONTEST.

The Fourth International Egg Lay ing Contest at Storrs has shown in- creased production every week since it opened on November 1st, and since the second week at constantly in creasing rate. The production for the fifth week was 1,462 eggs which was 2s6 eggs better than the preceding week and relatively Al GEES better than for the corresponding period last year. Ed Cams White Wyandottes won the week with production of 3 eggs. A pen of White Leghorns own captured second place with a yield of 40 eggs. Third place went to a lsConnecticut pen of Leghorns owned by F. M. PeasIey, of Cheshire, this pen having laid ,37 eggs Windsweep Farms White Leghorns tied for fourth place with a pen of Rhode Isl and Reds from St A1bans, Vermont, 1 owned by Hi1Iview Poultry Farm,
 each pen having s5 eggs to their credit.
 Only three out or the 1000 hens received a perfect score for the week A Connecticut Leghorn owned by Geo. Bowles. a. Pennsylvania Leghorn own ed by P. c. P1att and R. I. Red from New Hampshire owned by Colonial Farm each laid seven eggs. There l were 37 birds including White and Barred Rocks White and Buff Wyan-
 
 and Black Leghorns and Silver Campines, that laid six eggs each, thus making a, score of S6 per cent
 The method of feeding the bullets is slightly different from the way in which the old birds were being fed l at the close of the last contest. The dry mash is fed in hoppers to which the birds have access at all times. The scratch feed is fed as follows. When ! the attendant goes through and un locks in the morning each pen is given l a. handful of grain They receive a like amount in the middle of the fore l noon and again at one o'clock. The l object of this method is to keep the l birds off the roost and working. The 1 heavy. feeding of five or six handfu1s per pen is given between three and
 four o'clock or as late as it can be given and still allow time for the birds to clean it up before dark The amount fed varies of course, with the
 breed and with the number of birds that are laying.
 Charcoal, grit and oyster shell are kept before the birds at all times
 while the succuIent part of the ration: is supplied by mangels and sprouted l oats.
