Leghorn pullet means. To the great
mass of American people eggs are eggs,
and they supply a satisfactory breakfast.
There are few who know that the
value of the eggs laid last year by the
American hen was 500, 600, 900. The
/ number laid was 35, 900, ,000,0 900.
If every hen in the country could be
made TO lay one more egg a year $l0,-
600, 900 would be added annually to the
wealth of the nation. Now you can un-
derstand why The North American gives
Lady Byzantine place on the first page,
and now you may catch glimpse of the
great work being carried on by breeders.
The history of the bird is a story of
science in chickens. She was Matched
in April, 1914. There was nothing left
to chance in the making of Lady Eglan-
tine, and three years before she pecked
her way through brittle shell on the
eastern shore of Maryland intelligent
men had planned her existence along
fixed lines.
At that time there came a man to
The North American Egg Laying Com
petition man who frankly admitted
he didn't know any more about the sci
ence of egg producing than the average
grocer. He believed in the great prin-
ciples of efficiency, however, and asked
many questions. He studied hard and
then set out to produce Lady Eglan-
tine. This man was A. A. Christian of
Philadelphia, who owns large farm at
Milford chronicle., 1915-10-08

Not only has Lady Byzantine smashed
the worlds individual record, but pen
/ No. 81, of which she is member, will
break the worlds pen record. That rec
ord is 1l90 eggs, laid by five pullets in
the second year of the competition. For
/ the fOrty-seventh week, ending Friday,
/ September "a. the Byzantine pen had a
| record of ll38 eggs. Thirty-seven days
remain, so it is clear that pen No. 62
will complete the year with more than
1900 eggs that is, barring accidents.
! The average of the five birds up to Sep
tember "a, was 227 3-5 eggs each.
Stop right there and reflect. The
average yearly egg production for the
American hen is 10. This is the ordinary
barnyard stock For the commercial
bird that is, the pullet which has been
raised for egg production, the average
is l4O. Lady Eglantine's performance
in manufacturing 287 eggs, in $50 days,
and the pens average of 227 3-5 eggs,
proves the case of Of.scientific breeding so
clearly that nobody can have doubts.
TO BE BRED NEXT YEAR.
Lady Byzantine has been a consistant
layer. She has had no serious break
during the year; she has not been sick, |
and she went through the recent heat
spell nobly. Next year she will be bred
with a male whose ma" laid 282 eggs. |
Speaking of sickness, it is an incon- |
siderable thing in The North American
competition. Only twelve birds died out
of 500 entered this year. The care taken
by Superintendent A. M. Pollard, who |
is in charge of the big work going on at
Newark. Del, is mostly responsible for
this excellent record, and it must not /
be forgotten that modern breeding |
makes for healthy pullets.
Conditions at the Delaware College
station are ideal for such a
as The North American
fosters. There are no violant climatic
changes and the soil on which the pens
are built is free from noxious elements.

that day to this the world has not seen

When the church was born the maimed,
blind and leperous filled mountain, city
and desert; these were left alone to
starve. The Church, following her Mer-
ciful Master, the Great Healer, built
asylums, homes, hospitals. Think of the
condition of the home when Jesus came.

Here we have some idea of the morals
of the world into which the pure Church
of Christ came. Yes, the Church is di-
vine in so far as the Church follows her
Risen Lord. The Church has continued
her uplifting program, for today on
every hand are monuments of her eff
cheney in raising men from the level of
brutes to the likeness of God. Today
the Church is the mother of higher
learning, the teachers of morals; she
sets the highest standard of living. Of
course in her vast membership some are
imperfect. Even the sun has spots on
it's face do you refuse to take all money

DO YOU THINK OF THE CHURCH AS A
BRIDE?
The Church is the bride of Christ. We
often have used this, and the figure is
familiar. But there is another view to
this that even church members do not
take. The Church is the bride of each
one who joins her. o, that the average
professor might get thisl We know that
the institution of marriage and the rela-
tiOnship of welded life is one of the
closest and most sacred known to men.
God has used this symbol IN relation to
His Church. The Jerusalem prophet,
Isaiah, uses this figure in a different
sense in speaking of Zion, the church of
the Living God, he says: As a young
man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons
marry thee. This is the Old Testament
church but applies to the New Testa-
ment church as well. The ancient city
Jerusalem was the bride and her sons
the bridegroom. Now let US have
church wedding.
l. A Voluntary Relation. Now our
ceremony begins. ''If it be your desire
to take each other as husband and wife,
you will please declare the same by
uniting your right hands,. Please no
tice l do not unite their right hands,
they do that. So in the relation of church
each one of US has a right
to choose the church of his love, or re-
main an old bachelor if he chooses.
2. A Loving Relation. "Do you
solemnly promise that you will love y"
If he says no, all must end there. The
relation is one of love; without
it it is a farce and a crime. Listen to
the ancient Jew in love with Zion: "How
are thy tabernacles, o Lord of
Hosts. My soul longeth, yea, even
Milford chronicle., 1915-10-08

fainteth for the courts of the Lord. -
Now if the Jew loved Jerusalem and
found in her his chief Joy. ought not the
Christian love the Church?
3. 1t Is A Relation of Honor. "* x
that you will love, honor, so the SER
vice runs. The bridegroom will honor
the bride by his faithfulness to her. Her
desires are to be the inspiration of much
that he does. He must be true to his
vows, and if he is untrue to her, he is
untrue to himself. Dear Christian, let
US honor the Church by being true to
her. If we do not keep our vows to the
Church we are untrue to ourselves.
4. We Must Cherish Her. So runs
the marriage service, ito love, honor
and cherish her" This means not only
to hold dear but to treat dear. 1t means
more then simple esteem-it means in
sickness or sorrow, good report and evil
report to support and protect-a feeling
of constant tenderness and trust in her
whom the soul loveth.
5. We Must Be Loyal to Her. "And
that fOrsaking all others for her alone. -
To him hencefOrth there is to be but one
woman, and she is to be the one to whom
he is married. 1t must be the one
church. Think of man saying he loves
every woman as he loves his own wife
How often you hear, "Well, l love all
the churches alike.
6. We Must Support Her. THAT
you will perform unto her all the duties
which a husband owes to his wife" A
true man does not marry a woman for
what she will bring to him. She may
have a fortune and he may be poor, but
if he gives her himself, she has what
money cannot buy. He does not expect
her to support him, he has pledged to
support her. For her own dear self, for
what she is and for not what she has,
he pledges his life and service. He ex-
poets to provide for her every need, and
finds supreme joy in the doing of it.
He does not expect her to support her
self, though she might do that; no, he
expects to care for her as his right and
duty. Now just apply this to church
If all of US were married |
to the church she could want no good |
thing. The true church member brings
to the church the best he has, and in re- |
turn he receives what the church alone
can give him as his beloved.

Here is a glimpse of the times OF Jesus
/ as to the "little chile" If children
were born of a marriage, the parents
! did not recognize it as duty and JOY
to train them up and form them in vlr-
tue, but to their own children injury,
left them to the management of slaves.
To be blessed with children was no
pleasure, but burden and hence peo-
Die did not shrink from infanticide, or
at least from the exposure and abandon
ment of their offspring. Even Augustus
commanded that the child which his
granddaughter Julia bore after her BAN
ishment should be taken from her and
exposed. This was often done in the
hope that passers by would save the
child and bring it up. But if so, what
was its lot? The boy was commonly
trained as a gladiator, the girl brought
I'D as a prostitute. Among the higher
orders worse things than the exposure
of children wefe done" M. Seidel.
Think of the lot of the slave favor
ite slave spilled a goblet of wine on the
robe of his Roman master, and was be-
headed for it to the unfeigned delight OF
the assembled guests.
Martin Seidel says "They were
bought or sold or pledged or exchanged,
or given away or inherited; were ac-
cording to necessity or conveyance dess-
tined to handicrafts or trades ; for ladl-
torial combats or the brothel or indeed,
even door keepers were chained like
watchdogs. People punished them at
their own pleasure, and often murdered
them upon the smallest pretext The
aged were exposed or driven away, with
entire unconcern about what became OF
them; or slain as if they were cattle.
Nobody interfered with the master IN
doing this, and nobody called him to ac-
count for it. Against slaves all is law

A trap nest is one which drops a little
shutter when the hen enters to lay.
When the egg is laid the pullet sings
as all good hens should An attendant
of Mr.. Pollard comes along, releases the
hen, takes her number from a band on
the leg and carries away the egg, which
is marked for Identification. In this way
a perfect record of each hen and each
pen can be kept.
Secretary F. V. L. Turner, of the
executive committee in charge of the
/ competition, and the man who is in
charge of the details, announces that
| the entry list for the fifth competition,
starting on November lst, is complete
This not only shows the popularity of
the contest, but demonstrates the grow
/ ing interest in scientific breeding of
chickens.
Coming back to the history of Lady
Byzantine, another independent record
was being made at Greensboro during
the present year. A pen of 65 sisters
of the world beater was made up and
tables kept on these as well as on two
other birds. These last two were of
of pure American stock, while the Lady
Byzantine strain has some foreign blood.
However. the foreign blood came from
original American birGs, which were
taken to England and their offspring
brought back to the native land of their
ancestors.
Out of the siXty-seven birds forty-six
have reached or passed 200 eggs. Three
more should touch the 200 mark. Four
pullets have laid more than 25O eggs.
and two more will equal this figure
FOrty-nine birds have laid 10,875 eggs,
with an average of 222 each.
Now for a little something about the
Leghorn variety.
Even before modern breeding was
practiced our ancestors knew that GER
tain varieties of chickens were better
egg producers than others. The Leg
horns were in this class. The history of
the Leghorn can be traced back through
the musty centuries. Its original stock
was the jungle fowl of India, tanned to
become a domestic bird.
All other chickens can be traced to |
this common source. 1t is reasonably |
certain that the Leghorn as a distinct /
type was developed in Egypt and was |
carried by the Romans into the Italian .
peninsula. The very name of the bird |
would seem to indicate that there was
still further development near the city
of Leghorn.
Lady Byzantine, being a white Leg
horn, belongs to one of the more modern
branches of her family since the first
members were brown. She may be said
to represent the highest development in
the original jungle fowl.
Of the older nations Egypt showed
more advancement in the raising of
chickens than the others. Herodotus
.ells of Matching eggs in incubators made
If mud mounds. This was a standard
zed industry, the owners bringing the
Eggs to an expert, who took small toll
or his work. Pliny also wrote of the
Industry.

DEVELOPED OWN STRAIN.
There were several strains that had
been attracting attention, and from the
best of these the Byzantine people start
ed to develop their own. Certain laws
of heredity were followed. One of these
was laid down bv Mendal at the College
of Brunn. and it was proved out by
Tom Barron, of England, and D. J.
Laurie, the Australian poultry expert.
Every egg layer possesses prominent
characteristics, and strangely, these
characteristics are not passed down by
the breeder through the female, but
through the male. The aim is to develop
the egg-laying qualities to the highest
point, and the very fact that all of the
other pullets in the pen of five chickens
are sisters of Lady Byzantine is the
strongest proof of the value of breeding
The system on the Byzantine farm
was carried out for two years, and when,
during the spring of 1914, Temple Smith
saw the brood playing in the sand, he
determined to enter a pen in The North
American competition, which started on
November l of that year. The five pull
let's were selected with the same care
that went into their creation, and it is a
pen.
