Egg Laying Contest
at Storrs Half Over

With the close of the twenty-siXth
week the international egg laying
contest at Storrs. is half over. 1t is
interesting, therefore, to make some
comparisons with the preceding con-
test rs to the probability and posi-
bility of breaking records made in pre-
vious years.
The best indiidual score that has
ever been made in any American egg
laying contest was made by an Eng
lish White Leghorn at Storrs last
year, with a record Of 2S2 eggs.
In the first six months this indi-
vidual produced only 1872 eggs, or As
per cent Of her annual yield, In the
present contest an English Wyandotte
has to date produced 1877 eggs. If
this individual can only keep the
same pace that the Leghorn did last
year it will mean a record of 304 for
the year, Or better than the famous
300-egg hen produced in Oregon.
at the close of the first six months
last year the five leading hens had an
average production of 99.7 eggs and
finished the year with an average
production of little more than 213
each. The five leading pens in the
present competition with twice as
many hens to the pen-which means,
of course, that the fifty best hens in
the third contest are being compared
with only the twenty-five best hens in
he second contest-are now credited
with 95,7 eggs each.
Saturday news. (Watertown, S.D.) 19??-19??, 1914-06-04
Mortality in the Contest.

i
The mortality for the first six
months has amounted to thirty hens
out of the competing pens from a
total of 800 birds, or a little over 3,5
per cent, The period of highest NOR
tality has undoubtedly passed so that
the total for the year will amount to
no more han 6 per cent, whereas
many commercial poultry men figure
on an expected mortality of 10 per
cent.
BY some strange coincidence both
the largest and smallest eggs produc.
ed since the contest opened last Nov
ember were laid during the twenty
sixth week. The largest egg, weight
"a of a pound, was yielded by a Col
umbian Wyandotte from New York,
and the smallest egg, weight .02 of a
pound, was produced by a white Leg
horn from Connecticut.
1t has been pointed out that the
English Wyandottes were %slackening
their pace a little thus making it pos
sible for American breeders to over
take them but as this is taking place
the English Leghorns are coming up
from the rear. They won first place
for the twenty-sixth week with a
yield of tifty-six eggs. Second place
for the week was won by a pen of
white Wyandottes owned in Connect
icut with tifty-tWo eggs to their credit
while three pens, viz: Buff Leghorns
from Michigan, Rhode Island Reds
from Connecticut and a Storrs Station
Experimental pen of white Leghorns,
lied for third place with ifty-four
eggs each.

only a small outlay of money and at
ford an efficient machine.
The lawns should be sprayed every
month or six weeks during the sum
mer, for several sprayings at least
are needed to completely kill out
the large plants. Lawns should new
er be sprayed sooner than three days
after cutting and should not be moved
until several days have elapsed after
spraying. A bright Bunshiny day
with no prospects for rain is the best
time to spray. If the lawns are not
sprayed shortly before cutting or
soon after cutting, the grass will not
be injured. White clover may be in
jured slightly but not enough to hurt
1t materially. These methods will, If
carried out carefully, eradicate the
dandelions which are present in the
lawns but they will not prevent seed
from blowing from a neighboring
lawn and again infesting the sprayed
area. This can. in part at least be
avoided if all the people of a certain
neighborhood make a fight against
this pest. BY H. S Coe, Consulting
Botanist, South Dakota State College.

Dandelions Can be
Killed Says Coe

Probably the most common method
in vogue at the present time is that
of hand digging. This is an efficient
way provided that the plants are
small and that the roots are cut of
four Or five inches below the SURFACED
of the ground. However, with larger
plants, If some substance is not added
to kill the rootstocks remaining I'M
the ground, they will, in several weeks
start to grow again. For this pur-
pose it is a good plan to pour a small
quantity, about a tablespoonful, of al
20 to 80 per cent solution of sulphuric
acid upon the surface OF the cut root
stalks. Kerosene has also given equal
ly good results. These solutions will
kill the remaining roots and If care isl
used in their application the lawn
will in 40 way be injured. If sulphur
ic acid is used it is best to have the
druggist dilute it to the required
strength since IL absolute care is not
taken in mixing it with water violent
action Is likely to follow. Care must
also he taken in using 1t since 1t will
rea6ly burn the skin or clothing.
Commercial sulpharic acid costs from
ten 10 fifteen cents per pound, An
other means OF Graduating this pest
which has proved efficient ID spraying
with iron suiphate.
Spraying with iron sulphate to Grad
icate dandeiions has met with vary
ing success in different parts Of the
country, but where 1t has been prop
eriy applied in the northwest 1t has
Eiven positive results. The solution
for this purpose should be made by
dissolying from so to 100 pounds of
Iron sulphate in a barrel l52 gallons1
of fairly soft water, or if q smaller
quantity is wanted use two pounds Of
iron suiphate to each gallon OF water.
1t is best to put the iron snlphate in
a muslin sack and suspend II In the
water for in this way impurities
which are apt to stop up the nozzles
