year Of the competition the North
American, after paying all ex-

winning pen. The money is givel

is the friendliest doggie in the
world, acknowledging the pats and
overtures from visitors, with ap-
preciative wags of his tail. At
night, however, he is alive to the
dignity Of his position. The Sup
erintendent declares he would not
dare himself to approach the gate,
without first talking for several
minutes to convince the dog Of his
identity. Wallace has lived since
tiny puppy with his feathered
friends, and although quick to dis
cover the bird who has escaped
from her pen, has never been
known to pluck a feather, so skill

and return them to their proper

The Egg Laying Competition
has vome to the College Farm for a
period of at least three years, with
the prospect Of making the farm d
permanent location. In connection
with the plant is special house
stocked with birds owned by the
farm. This is looked upon as the
beginning of poultry department
at Delaware, which previous to
this time has been the only agri-
cultural college in the country
without such a department,-a de-
partment which at Cornell, COnnec-
ticut, Michigan, and Wisconsin, is
the most popular in the agricult-
ural college.
Mr.. Pollard expects the visitors
to the poultry plant this year to
number at least ten thousand peo-
pie. If the present rate Of laying
is continued the hens will break Ill

Agent Pelton of Sussex county.
Middletown will be the scene of the
first survey, which will continue
for one week. All information fur
nished by the farmers will be held
in confidence.
Agent Cooch for this county an
nounced at the meeting Saturday
that he would be glad to give dem
onstrations of spraying plants in
fected with insects. He will per-
form the work on a limited number
Of trees in each section Of the coun-
~, with the understanding that the
farmers will provide pumps and
spraying solutions, and also secure
the attendance of neighbors at the
demonstrations.
He has formulated a farm ac-
count book which he will furnish to
each farmer upon application by
mail or otherwise, at his address,
Cooch s Bridge. The book goes in
to the farm expenditures and re-
ceipts sufficiently to enable any
farmer to keep an accurate account
and he will be able to tell at the
end Of the year just which pro-
ducts are profitable and which are
not. Mr.. Cooch, has also had
printed a large number of crop
standardization charts which he
will furnish along with the account
books. A number of the charts have
been sent out and have been re-
ceived written up with the neces-
sary information. Any that are
still outstanding Mr.. Cooch would be
glad to receive. All Of these tabu-
lations will go hand in hand with
the farm survey work.
