ONE EGG SEPARATED
 THREE LEADING PENS
The Weeks Production at Storrs Far
 Above Sano Week Last Year.

The three best pens for the twenty fifth week of the laying contest at Storrs were all but tied. They were separated from each other by a mar gin of just one lone egg. Tom Bar ron's pen of English Wyandottes were first with a production of s1 eggs- Springdale Poultry Farms Rhode lsl- and Reds from Durham. Conn, were second with so eggs and H. F. Dem inE's pen of the same breed from Win sted. Conn. were third with a yield of 5a eggs. All of the pens taken to- gether laid 45s4, a substantial increase over last weeks lay and more than 500 eggs better than for the cores bonding week last year.
 There were hfty-five hens including Barred. White. and Columbian Rocks. White and Bun Wyandottes. Rhode Is- land Reds. White Leghorns. Red Sus- sex. and White Orpingtons that made perfect individual scores for the week. These included one-half of all the va rieties entered in the contest. As n matter of fact the Rhode Island Reds were just twice as good in this respect as the average for the entire flock. More than eleven per cent. of the In- dividuals of this breed made perfect scores whereas the average for ell amounted to five and half per cent. Tn Pinecrest Orchards pen of Reds from Groton. Mass. there were five ! individuals or one-half the pen. that laid seven eggs each during the week This excellent individual work and big average yield has been put over ! in spite of a nearly solid week ot i either cloudy or rainy weather and | yet fair weather is considered just as ' necessary for good results in poultry i farming as 1t is in any other sort oi | farming.

FIGHTING COMMON RED MITE
Insect Most Active During Warm
Weather-Found Around Nests,
Roosts and Dropping Board.

The common red mite which is most
active during the warm weather is
commonly found about the roosts and
dropping boards, also about the nests,
and many times in breeders and coops
for the hen and her chicks. The mite
is easily held in check if proper meth
DDS of control are used. While kero-
sene will quickly kill them it evapo-
rates in few days.
And of the coal oil tar mixtures are
more effective. Carbolenium is recon-
mended highly by the Connecticut sta
ton. Containing coal-tar product and
carbOlic acid it acts as q wood stain
and remains effective for a long period
of time, being even more effective than
pure carbolic acid. One application
year is generally sufficient, but it must
be used with discretion.
An excess amount either on the
roosts or on the adjoining boards may
result in eye trouble to the hens or
chickens. To avoid this it is best to
make the application when changing
the chicks from one house to another,
allowing at least two days for the
mixture to dry before using the house.
If this cannot be done dilute it with
kerosene and apply lightly with a
brush.
If roosts are allowed to dry outside
of the poultry house there is less dan
ger of injury to the fowls. The roosts
should be removed and painted, the
roosting boards thoroughly cleaned,
then painted, being sure to use the
carbolenium very literally In the
cracks between the boards. In badly
infested houses or where mites show
signs of returning it may be neces-
sary to make second application.

Picardy Names.

Whence come the names of the
Picardy villages, strange even in
France, on the ground now being
fought over by French and Germansf
Among the names of places mentioned
are Bray, which is of Celtic origin and
signifies a swamp or morass. Fay is
from the Latin 'fagus," meaning a
beech tree. Hem is home or habita-
ton. Estrees is from the Latin "stran-
ta." meaning route. Fins is from
"finis," signifying the limits. Combles
means wales or valleys. The termina-
ton soy is applied to a plantation:
Quesnoy, Tilloy, Autnoy, Rosoy. The
name of 'Bois des Trones" is simply

use of soiling crops is the extra labor
required to cut and haul these crops
from day to day, especially if field
work is pressing.
On high-priced land, where the prob
lem is to produce a sufficient quantity
of roughage, or If the cost of pastur-
age for several cows for a season.
During periods of drought, when both
pastures and soiling crops fail, silo
filled with well-matured silage grown
the previous year is most valuable.
In planning summer silo 1t should
be kept in mind that it's diameter
should be in relation to the number
of cows fed daily. AS a general rule,
under summer conditions, a COW will
consume about 20 pounds of silage.
Silage enough must be removed daily
TO prevent excessive surface fermen-
tation. On this basis a summer silo
for 20 cows should be eight feet in
diameter; for 80 cows ten feet, and for
40 cows, twelve feet. AS eight feet Is
about the minimum diameter of a
silo for best results, a summer silo is
most applicable in herds of 20 or more
cows.

windings along the valley and aban-
doned the cut single track. They tore
out the connections at either end and
left the worn rails to neglect, weeds
and rust.
Mr.. Branson had formerly been a sec
ton superintendent, but had grown
too old to work except around the lit
tie home plat. He had put in crops
of early vegetables for which there
was a good cash demand at Brocton,
a mile down the line beyond the north
end of the cut. A battered up light
handcar had been dumped in the ditch
and left there when the old line was
abandoned. He had got 1t righted,
and with Katy's help, too. He had
patched it up and, 10 and behold a
new order of traffic, for Katy learned
to man it. Every day she loaded it
with the baskets of kitchen produce
and ran it the three miles to the end
of the rails. There were always half
Il dozen Brocton boys on hand at the
terminus, ready and willing to carry
the baskets to the town stores where
Katy disposed Of their contents.
Then one afternoon her faithful
or faithless-cohorts, as the case
might be, disappointed her, enticed
away by a ball game. That mile
down the hot graveled roadbed of
the main line looked an arduous adj
venture to Katy, for her two baskets
were big, well laden and heavy. A
well-mannered young fellow saunter-
ing by discerned her plight. He in
sisted on becoming her knight cheva-
lier. That was the beginning of her
acquaintance with Bruce Danvers.
He had been frank and open with
her as to his prospects. "They de-
pend upon my father just now" he
told Katy, "but 1 can start out to
earn my living independently if he OBJ
jects to our engagement"
do nothing rash, dear" pleaded
Katy. almost piteously, though, and
he smiled at her fears and looked the
valiant whole-souled fellow he was,
and she trusted him, and hoped every
thing would come out just as he pre-
dicted.
Then a fateful day came to Katy.
She had not seen Bruce Danvers for
week, nor had she received a line
from him. That did not worry her,
for she never doubted his fidelity. II
made her feel surely lonely. however.
Everything went at odds that day, II
seemed. She had to carry the baskets
to Brocton, she was delayed in get
ting rid OF her produce. There was
another long wait in settling with a
fractions merchant. 1t was dusk quite
as she neared the entrance to the cut.

SUCCESSFUL FEEDING OF DAIRY COWS


(From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
One of the most common mis- -es
in the feeding of dairy cows on the
farm is that the good cows are not
given a sufficient quantity of feed
above that required for their physical
maintenance to obtain the maximum
quantity of milk they are capable of
producing. Successful feeding of dairy
cows involves the providing of an
abundant supply of palatable, nutri-
tious feed at minimum cost and feed
ing in such a way as to receive the
largest milk production from the feed
consumed. Feeding for profit is de-
fined as liberal feeding, or feeding to
the full capacity of the COW, in new
Farmers Bulletin of the department,
No. TAB, ''The Feeding of Dairy Cows"
which discusses many of the factors
involved in economical feeding.
From the standpoint of economical
milk production, dairy COW generally
should not be fed more than she will
consume without gaining in weight.
There are times, however, according to
the bulletin, when it is desirable to
make exceptions to this rule. Prac-
tically all heavy milk producers lose
weight in the early part of their lacta-
ton period; that is, they produce milk
at the expense of their body flesh.
their milking period they normally re-
gain the flesh they have lost, and the
farmer can well afford to feed them
literally, with the assurance that he
will be repaid in the form of milk
when the cows again freshen.
Pasture is the natural feed for cows
and for average conditions with am.
pie pasture of good grasses or legumes
In good, succulent condition, good pro
ductiOn can be secured.
The cost of land Is q factor in the
economy of using pasture, however
If pastures are depended upon entire
ly for from four to six months of the
year, and production is kept up to 6
profitable standard, anywhere from
one to four acres or more must bt
provided for each COW, says the bulle
tin. This is assuming that a per
manent pasture is of good, clean turf
with few or no waste places, or tina
a temporary pasture has good stan(
of grass or legumes throughout. LanC
that will provide such pastures fire
quently is high priced. The following
tables show the cost of pasturing a COW
on land ranging from $25 to 5000 al
acre:
Interest on cost of pasture per Gov
for the season; interest at 6 per cen
on the value of the land, allowing
from one to four acres per COW:

USING DUAL-PURPOSE STOCK
More Milk Obtained From Cow Of
Dairy Breed-More Meat Secured
From Beef Breeds.

Dual-purpose cattle may be very
profitable and often are. And yet the
dual purpose COW seldom produces as
much milk as one of dairy breed or
as much beef as one Of the strictly
beef breeds.
On the other hand, admirers of the
dual-purpose COW say that she pro-
duces more milk than the beef breeds
and more beef than the dairy breeds.
You will have to be your own Judge
as to which way you wish to take It

"Katy did Katy did Katy did !"
Katy blushed. She hurried her steps,
actually embarrassed. What Katy did,
she alone and Bruce Danvers knew,
yet she fluttered when she recalled IL
all, and just now because she was
passing the very spot where a week
previous young Danvers had told her
he loved her and asked her to return
his kiss-and Katy did.
And now from the trees came the
remindful hilarious chorus of the
merry insects, as though they had seen
it all and were proclaiming it to the
world.
Father says that Bruce is not our
kind" soliloquized Katy Branson.
"That is true, for his father is pres

Danvers said that even the best fa-
Their in the world should not stand be-
tween him and the girl he loved best.
Oh, l hope he meant i'll must be-
lieve that, or il would break my
heart !"
Then Katy tripped home to her du-
ties. They were humble ones, yet she
graced them. Old Mr.. BransOn and
his wife and daughter lived in rath-
err unusual environment. They had a
little home surrounded by a few acres
about half way up Glover Cut. The
cut was four miles long and until
the year previous had been part
of the railroad. Then the company
had decided to save a mile of crooked

You Can't Help Your Badness.

According to Miss Dorothy Osborn
of the Ohio State university, badness
in men is inherited just as much as
horns in sheep.
Badness in women is more fire.
quent than is generally known, she
declares, because women can con-
ceal their badness much more easily
than men," She finds that a woman
is bald only when she inherits 1t from
both parents. II one of her parents
was bald, however, she may transmit
badness to one-half her sons. If a
mother is bald, her sons will be bald.
no matter whether the father is or not.
Her daughters will not be bald unless
