TWO WEEKS AHEAD
 OF LAST WEAR
Best Pens in storrs Egg Laying Con- test Have Over Thousand to Their Credit.


 The best pen in the laying contest at StorTs is exactly two weeks ahead of the best pen a year ago. On Thurs day of last week two pens of White wyandottes owned by Tom Barron of England and obed G. Knights. Bridgetun. R. I. were tied with a99 eggs each Knights hen No. 193 laid the first egg on Friday morning. there by breaking the tie and making his pen the first to have laid a thousand eggs. From the scores below. how ever, it will he noted that at the end of the week Barron's birds were again in the lead by a margin of two eggs Last year a pen of wyandottes reach ed this point on April 18th or just two weeks later than in the present com petition.
 Knights pen mentioned above were first for the week with a yield of 5s eggs Four pens of Rhode Island Reds | took second and third places IT. P. Demings pen from Winsted. Conn. tied with Laurel Hill Farm. Bridge | ton, R. l. with 56 eggs each and | Springdale Poultry Farm. Durham. | Conn. tied with Fl. W. Collingwood from Woodcliffe Lake. N, J. with 55 l eggs each. The total yield for all the pens In the twenty-fourth week amounted to 4391 which is nearly 500 eggs better than for the correspond ing week last year.
 All the hens in the contest have been housed continuously since last November but will probably be given the run of the yards within the nexi week or ten days. These yards. how ever. provide only a limited amount of green food and 1t Is important that hens have all they want, both summer and winter. Now is the time there. fore to plant Swtss-chard and Esse1 rape unless ones hens have an abund- ance of range. It Is likewise the sea, son to plan for next winters suppll l of green food. One should allow ap- l proximately one tone of mangel beet for each one hundred hens that h, proposes to carry through next win ter.
 The three best pens in each of tn, principal breeds are as follows:

SOYBEANS.
Can Be ProfitebIy Grown in Connecti-
 cut to Put in SiIo With Corn.


 Soybeans is legume crop which uses nitrogen from the air, hence helps to increase fertility. The crop. can be grown to put in the silo with corn thus increasing the feed ing value of the ensilage as lfollows:-
 Dfgestible
 Nutritive nutrients / ratio in 100 lbs. Corn silage .... 1 to 9.S SIP lbs. Corn and Soybean
 silage ...... to 5.9 11.7S lbs Soybeans are also excellent for green they can be plowed under to increase the humus and fertility of the soil says Prof. Southwick of the Connec- ticut Agricultural College. There is an opportunity for some farmers tc grow soybeans for seed as the supply is insufficient and a yield of 20 bush els per acre at $1.50-$2.00 a bushe makes a good cash crop.
 Varieties to Grow.
 The Agricultural Experiment Sta. tions of Connecticut at present are ad- vising farmers to grow Hol1ybrook Medium Green and Ito San. These varieties yield well and the seed i: most easily obtained. It is very i'm portant to know what variety is plant ed as some varieties are not wei adapted to Connecticut conditions.
 Growing for Silase.
 Soybeans may be grown separatel. and mixed with the corn at the cutie or they can be grown with the corr either between or in the hills. WheI grown alone:-use 2 to 8 pecks of seet per acre, plant in drills 80 inche apart. Do not plant before corr planting time and cultivate careful, until crop Is a foot high. Soybean start slowly until warm weathe comes. Give them chance, keep tn weeds down.
 When grown with corn:-mix tn seed, part soybeans to 8 parts corr Any corn planter can be used if teste beforehand and adjusted to drop tn right amount of seed. Never wait un til the corn is up before planting tn soybeans-give them an even chance The soybeans should be cut for silag when the pods are well filled out. Thi

CHICK WEED IN THE LAWN.

Many requests come to the county league office asking how to eliminate chick weed from the lawn. This is one of the common pests found over the county. After it once obtains a foothold it will spread rapidly. Any one finding a small patch of this weed should begin immediately to dig it out. Experiment stations have found that 1t is possible to eliminate many of these weeds by the use of two pounds of iron sulphate dissolved in a gallon of water, this to be applied In the form Of a mist This will blaclzen the weeds and also the grass. but the injury done to the grass is comparatively small. due to the small leaf surface, It will probably require one or two more spraytngs before the weeds are completely killed. The prfn- cipal object in mind Is to eliminate al surface growth. Therefore as soon as another growth has appeared spray it with this solution.
