BARRED ROCKS WIN
Sixth Annual Egg Contest Closes at
 St0rrs College.

The sixth international egg laying contest at Storrs was formally closed with the laying of the last egg late Rhode Island Red hen No. 322, from Attleboro, Mass. A pen of Barred Rocks that piodded along in second place for more than fifty weeks, finally finished first. White Leghorns were in second and third places for the year, Barred Rocks fourth and Rhode Island Reds fifth. All five previous contests were won by either White Leghorns or White Wyandottes. Twice the .honors went to England, then to a Pennsyl. vania pen of Leghorns, Connecticut and Rhode Island had their turn and now New Hampshire stands at the head of the list as can be seen from the summary below. These New Hampshire Darred Rocks entered by Applecock Farm of Fitzwilliam no: only win in the contest just ended, but they have set new high record for Plymouth Rocks as no pen. of this breed has been able to equal their record in any previous competition. The 1000 birds in the contest were of nine different breeds and varieties, and repl esented sixteen states and two allied countries The combined weight of all the hens was less than two and half tons and yet they laid over ten tons of eggs. In other words, the aver age yield of 163 eggs for each hen was more than four times her own weight. | The grand total for all pens was 163, - s87 eggs which is the largest number of eggs ever collected at Storis from the same nun Der of hens. This record is 1000 eggs ahead of last years con- tents and more than II. 900 ahead of the contest two years ago.
 Ahe subjoined tables shows the number of birds in each breed, the average annual individual egg yield, and the average for all varieties en. 1 gagged in the contest

SAVE THE MAGAZINES
Attach a 0ne-Cent Stamp and Some
 Soldier Will Receive it.

Since the ruling made by Postmaster General A. $, Burleson last August that magazines containing the pres cribed printed instructions can be sent to United States soldiers and sailors at the front, the publishers have had time to comply with the instructions of the post office department, and today there is hardly magazine of any impor tance on any news stand which does not bear on its cover the legend:
 Notice to Reader.
 "When you finish reading this magazine place a l cent stamp on this notice, hand same to any postal employee and it will be placed in thu hands Of our soldiers and sailors at the front. No wrapping; no ad- dress.
 "A. s Burleson.
 Postmaster General" Lnly magazines containing the printed notice can be sent at this special rate, which is considerably lower than the regula. mailing charge, especially for mail to be sent abroad, so old magazine can not be sent. But all periodicals which contain these notices need only be stamped and sent to any local pest office or carrier, with out wrapping or addressing to be de livered to some soldier or sailor in France or England or elsewhere in active service. Tue sender buys the stamp; Uncle Sam does the rest
 The scheme is said to have met already with success and many of the ships which are leaving this coun- try for Europe carry bags of magazines straight from home to soldiers who are unable to read "L'Illustration" or en. joy the peculiar flavor of the humor that it is said can be found in Punch. Postmaster Roberts stated that many from this tow2 are sending magazines weekly. He estimates that about 50 magazines a week are shipped.
