Officers for 1915 were elected and

cussed at a meeting of the National
Capital Poultry and Pigeon Association

In view of the fact that neither the Madi-

il was decided to exert every effort to
make the show to be held here the biggest
in the east. Committees were appointed
to draft plans for the show and to obtain
a suitable hall in which it may be held.
Reports showed that the show at the

and that all premiums were paid in fun.

Claims Worlds Record.

Miss Elsie Dobbns of Caldwell \. j..
is the owner of barred Plymouth
Rock hen for which she claims the
worlds record for egg production. The
hen, then a baby chick, was given to
Miss Dobbins on the latter's third
birthday. June 20, 1901, the fowl, there
fore, being nearly fourteen years old.
According to assertions of members
of Miss Dobbins family, an exact rec
ord has been kept of every egg laid
by the hen, the records showing that
last week the fowl laid her 3.000th
egg.
This, it is declared, eclipses the rec
ord of light Brahma hen that was the
property of NJ. +. Julian of German
town, Pa. The Germantown hen, which
died in her twelfth year. is said to have
laid 2.234 eggs in her eleven years OF
service as an egg producer.
However, little arithmetic VIII
serve to east suspicion on both OF
these reported records. To lay 5000
eggs the New Jersey hen would have
had to lay at the rate of 230 1913 eggs
per year for thirteen years. while the

From the London Chronicle.
Writing implements changed consid-
erably for the better during Sir Walter
Gilbey's long spell of life. Though
quill pens are still in use he remarks
in his "Recollections of Seventy
Years." 81 remember the time when
one seldom s1.v any other kind. Steel
pens in their early days were eXpen-
sive and i'll made. and few people used
them. The paper we had seventy years
ago may have been partly to blame F.;
it had neither the substance nor the

comb is a sick hen and won't lay. The
rose comb varieties are supposed to
have frost proof comb, and. therefore,
are less liable to stop laying in winter
because of frosted combs.
Rose comb buff Leghorns are one of tn
most popular varieties. In color they
are Il soft, golden buff. the shade of a
new gold coin. Their bright red combs
and wattles and white earlobes make
a pleasant contrast to their handsome
plumage and yellow legs. The chicks
grow and feather rapidly. the pullets
reaching laying maturity at about four
months. The hens are non -sitters and
great layers. and probably do their best
on free range, although they Will give
profitable returns when yarded.
