PLYMOUTH ROCK
HENS AS LAYERS
Report of the Work Of the
Maine Experiment Station in
the Great National Laying
Contests.

Orono, Me-, Aug. 27.-(SpeciaD-
The following has been made public
by Director Chas. D. Woods of the
Maine Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton:
For a number of years past it has
been the policy Of the Maine Agricul-
tural Experiment Station to sell to
in this state and elsewhere
surplus breeding stock beyond the
needs of it's own experiments. Each
year there has always been more or
less of this stock for sale. The usual
way in which the stock has been dis
tributed is in the form of cockerels,
which have been used by the farmers
and poultrymcn to grade up their own
f1ocks. The Station has had many re-
ports from widely varied sources as to
the excellent results which have been
obtained from this stock used in the
manner indicated. These reports indi-
cate that this stock is distinctly supe-
rior to the general average of poultry
kept by farmers and poultrymen.
One particularly interesting report
of this kind has been made to the
Station by Mr.. B. F. w. Thorpe, a
former resident of Maine and we'll
known to many persons in this state.
Mr.. Thorpe is now an associate editor
of Farm and Fireside and resides in
in Springfield, Ohio. In connection
with his editorial work Mr.. Thorpe has
kept small backyard flock Of Barred
Plymouth Rocks and for several years
has been trapnesting these and trying
to improve their egg production. He
has. upon different occasions, bought
cockerels from the Maine Agricultural
Experiment Station and used them to
breed his birds with. In 1894 Mr..
Thorpe divided his small flock Of pull
let's in to two parts. One of these he
kept at home, and the other lot he
entered in the Missouri Egg Laying
Contest. All of these birds but one
were daughters Of a cockerel bought
from the Maine Agricultural Expert
ment Station. On Dec. II. 1914. after
the close Of the Egg Laying Contest
for that year, Mr.. Thorpe reported In
regard to his results as follows: my
pen Of Barred Rocks in the Missouri
contest outlaid all but five pens out Of
the 104 pens in that Contest. My pen
outlaid all Barred Plymouth Rocks, all
Orpingtons, Langshans, Minorcas.
Campines, Anconas. Rhinelanders, all
but one pen Of the Rhode Island Reds,
two pens Of the Wyandottes and two
pens Of the Leghorns.
MY pen Of Barred Rocks in the
Missouri Contest outlaid the follow
ing pens in the Connecticut Contest
the same year: All pens Of Plymouth
Rocks. all Orpingtons, and all breeds
and varieties entered in that Contest
except one pen Of Rhode Island Reds.
three pens Of Wyandottes and three
pens Of Leghorns.
Stated in another way, out Of the
1856 pens comprising all the entries
in both the Missouri and Connecticut
Contests my pen Of Barred Rocks. No.
50 outlaid 66 pens out Of II pens Of
Leghorns, / pen out Of the 20 pens
Of Wyandottes, % pens out Of the rs

The main object Of the German attack

days has been the railroad running east.
ward from the fortress toward Moscow
This line, with Il ora-cn running in a

means for a Russian evacuation of the
fortress. The Austro-German advance
against this railroad has been so slow
that it is believed here the evacua lion
was accomplished successfully before the
fortress surrendered.
