IN FAVOR
Produce Eggs Cheaper Than
Fowls of So-CaIled General
Purpose Breeds.
MOST PROFITABLE TO KEEP
Fact Established In Rather Extensive
Feeding Test Conducted by Poul-
trymen OF the Department
OF Agriculture.

(From the United States Department of
Agricultural
Leghorns produce eggs cheaper than
hens of the general-purpose breeds
Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode
Island Reds, and Orpingtons. This
fact, which confirms the belief and ex-
perience of commercial poultry farm
ers, was one of the results obtained
in rather extensive feeding test re-
Gently reported by poultrymen of the
United States department of agrieul-
ture. Because they lay as many or
more eggs, eat only about fifty-five
pounds of feed per head as compared
with seventy to eighty-five pounds eat
en- by the general-purpose breeds, and
because their egg yield very material
ly exceeds that of general-purpose
breeds during their second and third
laying years, Leghorns, the specialists
say, undoubtedly are more profitable to
keep for the production of eggs only.
Result of Feed Test.
In this test the feed cost of dozen
eggs for one of the Leghorn pens was
7.34 cents In 1913, while the average
cost of all the pens of the general
purpose breeds was 106 cents. In
1914 the feed cost of a dozen eggs for
the same pen of Leghorns was CT
cents as against an average cost of
15.1 cents for the second laying year
of the general-purpose pens. During
their third laying year the cost of a
dozen eggs was S.S cents compared to
1876 cents for the general-purpose
fowls. The total value of eggs per
hen over feed cost in the Leghorn pen
for three years was 1854 against $3.50
for the general-purpose hens. The
highest egg production obtained in any
of the feeding experiments up to 1915
was by a pen of Leghorns which laid
1916 eggs per hen, at feed cost of
CT cents dozen.
The Leghorns produce smaller eggs
than the general-purpose breeds. The
average weight of the eggs of pen
of Leghorns during the first laying
year was LAP pounds per dozen as
against 1853 to LIS pounds for the
| other pens. However, Leghorns. lay
| ing eggs weighing 1.50 pounds per dog
en- or even more, the specialists say,
have been selected and bred by many
| poultrymen. An examination in May,
1915, of 500 eggs from three Leghorn
pens showed that 81 per cent weighed
more than two ounces apiece, or 1.50
pounds to the dozen.
Value Of Eggs.
The value per dozen of the eggs pro-
duced by the Leghorns was from to
cents less each year than the eggs of

SPOTS FOUND ON EGG YoLKs
If Flock Is Healthy Specks Need
Cause No Special uneasiness--
See to Green Feed.

1t is not unusual to find spots on the
yolks of eggs. Sometimes these spots
look like mold; again there will be
blood clots, blood streaks, small
worms, and even bits of fecal mat
ter. When flock is laying occasional
eggs with spots, every egg should be
candled. Gambling every egg to be
marketed is the better way, but this
is the exception rather than the rule.
a perfectly normal flock will lay some
eggs with blood spots during the heavy

If the flock is healthy, these spots

WHITE RUNNER DUCKS AS EGG PRODUCERS

In these days of practical utility it
is interesting to note the Roadway,
made by the lighter breeds of essen
TALLY egg-laying ducks; more especi-
ally the white runner. The runner,
misnamed Indian because 1t originated
In the Island of the Netherlands, East
Indies, now includes various colors--
the fawn and white, pure white, black,
blue and peneiled; and though 1t might
be inferred that the white would be
subject to weakness when line bred
for heavy egg yield, such is not the
case so far, and there need be little
fear of inherent weakness and conse-
quent deterioration occurring.
The specimens shown herewith to-
gether with whole flock have never

Marshall of the bank went back with a

there was story under their windows,
the street was clear. Only old Hilary
lay dead on the pavement, with a bullet
in his head.
The chauffeur of the taxlcab drove
madly to the hospital with Marshall,
who was dying, and then to police
quarters, where he gave himself up. He
was released, of course. His name was
Walter HUFF. He was shown to be a
new man, but sober and industrious,
one of the best drivers in the employ
of the taxicab company. 1t was also
shown that Hilary Kingston had hailed
him; Huff explained his stopping. Mr.
Kingston was a regular patron; he had
meant to tell him that in five minutes
he would come back and pick him up.
Huff was under surveillance fol
three days. His conduct was impec

WOMEN GET VOTE
IN NORTH DAKOTA

A message received at national head
quarters, III Madison avenue, from the
headuuarters of the North Dakota Votes
for Women League, says Governor
Frazier will sign the Presidential suffrage
hill " Two separate votes for women
bills have passed the North DakOto Leg
islature. one the Presidential suffrage
bill. the other providing for a constitu-
tional amendment, to be referred to the
electorate.
The women have felt somewhat un-
certain as to how the cause would iare
at the hands of the electorate. North
Dakota has a good many farmers from
Europe who don't look favorably on
propositions to emancipate their women
kind. A good many of these are Rus
sian German hyphenates, descendants OF
the Germans who long ago went from
their country to Russia to escape con-
scription. and later came to this country.
The suffrage amendment went down to
defeat in South Dakota last year, so the
North Dakota women are not too hopeful.
But Gov. Frazier is a sutfragist, and by
SIGNING the Presidential suffrage bill he
will confer on the women of his State
the right to vote for all officers not pro
vided for in the State constitution. This
means that the women of the United
States will have FIVE more electoral votes
to add to the ninety-one they possess
now. and it adds so much to their lever
for gaining a federal amendment.
The National Woman Suffrage Asso-
citation is back of the movement to intro
duce a Presidential suffrage bill in every
State wherever there is no State CAM
! ,aior IN Should the New York refer
endum be a defeat next fall, as 1t was. IN
1915, New York suffragists will undoubt-
edly put their strength into hght Tor
Presidential suffrage, which doesn nave
to be referred to the voters.
