Consistent LAYER.

A hen that produces 664 eggs in
three consecutive years is a triumph
of the breeders art. Hen No. 81,
of the Oregon Agricultural College
Station, has made this marvellous
record. During the first year she
laid 240 eggs, the second 222, and
the third 202 eggs, Like most Of
the other remarkable layers in the
champion flock. she is a cross bred
hen of the Barred Rock and White
Leghorn breeds. and belongs to
the new strain or breed that is be-
ing developed by Professor james
Dryden for increasing egg produc-
ton. The value of her three
years work, SIS 1-3 dozen eggs Pr
25c. per dozen, is about $14. The
cost of her feed for three years i
about $3.50. This leaves a mar
gin of $3.50 to pay for investment
and labor.

PARCEL POST IS
A BIG SUCCESS.

The parcel post has proved q
complete success. After the close
of the heavy holiday business trans
acted whsrdltea oihrdl odarthm odar
acted all over the country, and the
enormous volume of parcels sent
out by the various postoffices, there
no longer exists any doubt of the
continued success of the parcel
post. About the only concerns
that can register disappointment and
grief are the robbing express COM
panies, who held full sway in the
business of transportation of small
er parcels for SO many years. They
are doomed to disintegration and ere
long, unquestionably, tSe post Of
flee department will be transacting
all of the business done in past
years by the monopolistie express
companies.
A Washington dispatch sent out
by the assistant postmaster general
in reference to the great financial
losses sustained by the greedy ex-
press companies through the de-
cline of their holiday express busl-
ness calls attention to the public
that the postal department is
purely executive one, and is going
to extend the parcel post system to
the full limit allowed by law, re-
gardless of how it affects the bust
ness of the express companies. 1t

press companies hristmas business

system.

By j. w. Hefsnan.

TT is a great pity that track athlet-
les have not as strong a hold
n upon the affections of the public
North. This is one of the prettiest
forms of pure athletic work we have
and one of the worthiest, and from
the point of view of sound common
sense anything accomplished in most
any one of the recognized track or
field events ought to count for as
much as does the work of football
hero like Brickley or baseball idol
like Cobb.
An Olympic winner of the hundred
or OF the Marathon or the Penthalon
is esteemed a deal more highly by
folks of foreign countries than are
the stars of any other game of either
their land or ours.
American Rugby football and base
ball are peculiar to this country, and
we go wild over them. One would
highly an athletic event that was
recognized as standard the world
over, such as running or jumping
for in the former sports our cham
pions can only be champions among
ourselves, and never world beaters-
since they can not enter into compe-
tition against the whole world in
either the gridiron or the diamond
pastimes. Surely a championship that
is worldwide and that has been won
in sport contested by nearly all the
peoples of The earth is more desirable
and should stand for more than one
In which national excellence only can
be attained.
Now our athletic young men of the
East, the North and the West are
gradually waking up to this fact, and
there is more interest and enthusi-
asm manifested each succeeding year
over the national championships in
track and field sports and in the mat
ter OF preparation for the great Olym-
pic games; but in the South we are
lar from having caught up with the
band wagon.
While, 1t is true, we have not as
yet developed many men down here
VINO are capable of doing wonders on
the cinder path, the fault is by no
means to be laid entirely to the door
OF the athletes themselves. In a
large part the sporting public is to
blame. Ifithe public would patronize
these games and take an interest in
them as they do in baseball or in
football We should soon see a far
greater number of young men going
IN Tor track work, and far better work
resulting.
AS it now stands a college man
works hard whole spring to fit
himself for trying effort in the mile
run or the high hurdles, has the priv.
ilege OF competing in one or two dual
meets that the college has, after
much trouble, been persuaded to
schedule, and then finds almost no
audience, and that a highly inappre-
ciative one. After his great effort he

CHARLIE WHITE
TO BOX CROSS
IN MILWAUKEE,

"HICAGO, Feb 16.-Milwaukee S
I effort to bring Jimmy Coffrorh
here from San Francisco to
stage a boxing show has at last been
rewarded. The dean of fight pro-
moters will leave the Coast within a
week for Chicago. He will arrange q
card for March in the Beer City.
Coffroth is not making a special trip
of it. He's coming on business, and
has consented to act while here. The
main attraction Is going to be Charlie
White and Leach Cross, according to
word from Sunny jim" Coffroth is
not invading Wisconsin as a rival pro-
moter, or with any intention to stir up
feelings among the boys who run
clubs there He is coming as an
agent for the Rlverciew Athletic Club
and will act only as matchmaker.
James Is a booster for the fight
game and he hopes that the way In
which he will handle this show will DE
of some aid to the Milwaukee crowd.
He is working on salary and his
work will be open to all who have any
connections with \ the Wisconsin
game. Coffroth recently closed with
Cross, who is now on his way here.
White has accepted. The March show
and possibly another one will be han
died exclusively by Coffroth, and then
he will return to the West to prepare
for his match between Willie Richie
and Tommy Murphy.

that the Hammond flash, though win

They like the man with the WALTON

th..t James set himself time and time
again and shot his right squarely to
