THREE BREEDS OF CHICKENS

(By PROF. DRYDEN, Oregon Agiicul-

That the heavy layers are not con,
fined to any one breed has been shown
by laying competitions in Australia,
which have extended over period of
six years.
In three of the six years, the white
Ieghorns laid the most; in two other
years the silver wyandottes won, and
in one year the black langshans stood
first
These breeds represent the three
different classes of fowls, namely egg
breeds, general purpose breeds and
meat breeds. In 1906-1907 contest,
the pen of black langshans laid an
average of 247 eggs per fowl, the
white leghorns 239. and the silver
wyandottes 199 eggs per fowl.

PROTECT THE LATE MATCHES
Chicks Are Special Prey Of Rats,
WeaseIs and Hawks Unless Proper
Precautions Are Taken.

Late-hatched chicks often become
the special prey OF rats, weasels and
hawks unless proper precautions are
taken to avoid losses from this
source. These enemies seem worse
in late summer than early in the sea,
son. In the case of rats, this 10 ac-
counted for by the fact that as soon
as hot weather arrives many of them
desert their hot quarters around the
board and rail piles, as we'll as to the
patches of thick weeds and grass.
Here they Turk, ready to pounce upon
unsuspecting chicks.
AS to preventive measures: 6rst,
all harbors near the chicks runs
should be banished and the rodents
destroyed before they have had time
to do any harm. Until this Is done
the best preventive measure In the
free use of wire netting about the
coops, such as screening ventilation
holes, providing screen doors. Nor
must it be forgotten that roAents can
burrow, hence when these enemies
are present floors in the coors are
necessary if losses would be avoided.
1t is when chicks run in an open
field that hawks and crows do the
most mischief. When there are trees
or shrubbery in the yards, with a
few convenient shelters of boards or
boxes under which the chicks can
speedily seek protection when bird
of prey swoops down, the losses will
not be great. When a hawk or crow
gets the habit of visiting the poultry
yard regularly, however, as some of
these birds often do, the only remedy
is to take the necessary time to ex'
terminate it by the gun route.

T.fts Record, but Appear to Have
suffered Complete Defeat-Progres-
dives Show Loss.

portIand. Me-, Sept 16.-Apparently
uoine went Democratic in the state
lection the first balloting of the kind
this year.
There we're extraordinary surprises
l., the voting. The Democratic vote
aaot for Mayor Oakley G. Curtis of
port1apd for governor showed gain of
Il per cent over that for President
Wilson in 1912.
The Republican vote cast for the re-
election of Gov William T. Hines
showed an increase of 134 per cent
over what Taft received.
On the other hand, the Progressive
vote given to Halbert P. Gardner for
governor reflected loss of SO per
cent from the Roosevelt vote Of 1912.
Besides national issues, particularly
tbe Democratic tariff law, formed the
basis of the campaign this year.
Returns from the cities of Bangor
and Portland changed an indicated
Republican plurality for Haines to an
apparently Democratic victory, al
though the result will not be certain
until 50 missing towns have been
heard from.
The standing with $50 towns and
all the 20 cities was as follows:
Haines (Rep) %, 953
Curtis (Dem.) ................ 81, BIB
Gardner (Prog). 1882
The corresponding vote for presi-
dent in 1912 was:
Taft (Rep) ................. "a, $50
Wilson (Dem.) ................4 49, ACT
Roosevelt (Prog) ..45,3 1927
These returns show a Republican
gain of 1875 per cent and a Democratic
gain of IS per cent. If the same
percentage is maintained, Curtis cleo
ton is indicated by about 600 plural
ity.
Congressman ASHER G. Kinds, Re-
publican, was reelected in the First
district, according to complete news
paper returns, by plurality of 500.
The vote was 1907 for Kinds, 1888
for j. S. Seates. Democrat, and 2,311
for Walter c. Emerson, Progressive.
Congressman Daniel @. McGillicuddy,
Democrat, was reelected over Harold
NJ Sewall, Republican, of Bath. The
vote was 1881 for Sewall, 1919 for
McGillicuddy and 6,2S1 for Alton C.
Wheeler, Progressive.
Returns from the Third district
showed that Congressman John A.
Peters, Republican, had lead over
William R. Pattangall, Democrat, but
twas considered not impossible that
Peters plurality of 1,441 in 100 of the
lS5 towns of the district might be
overcome.
Returns from the Fourth district
indicated the reelection of Congress
man Frank E. Guernsey, Republican.

Matching and fish cultural station es
taBlished in the Tenth Congressional

sum of $4,000 be appropriated for the
