In the twenty ninth week of the laying contest at Storrs the hens were just one egg short of 400 or 165 more than they laid in the preceding week though they are still under last years record for the corresponding period. Windsweep Farms two pens of Leg horns from Bedding Ridge, Conn, got first and fourth places with yield of 61 and 54 eggs respectively. Fairfield Farms Barred Rocks from Short Falls, N. H., were second best for the week with yield of 56 eggs. A. T. Len zen's White Rocks from North Attic boro, Mass, were a close third with 55 and three Connecticut pens owned ter, A. B. Hall of Wailingford and Koshaw Farms of Granby all tied with 53 eggs each.
 The unusual feature of the week dotte No. 204 from Westville, N. H. This hen is credited with only six eggs but three of these were double yolked or in other words by actual valent of about nine average eggs. The over size egg is not in Itself uncon- mon but it is not often that one hen can lay so many in one week.

Some Interesting Things.

Tom Murphy, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
T.. J. Murphy of this city and who is
now with hospital corps in France,
hasn't had a chance to look over the
Germans at close quarters vet but he
finds some pretty interesting things
in France. For instance he found
threshing with fails still going ON in
that country, revelation to one who
grew up in the banner wheat county
of the world. In the following letter
to Harry Leedy. he tells of some of
his experiences:

When you wake up with backache
and dun misery in the kidney region
it generally means YOU have been
eating too much meat, says well
known authority Meat forms uric
acid which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the
blood and they become sort of paral-

get sluggish and clog You must re-
lieve them. like YOU relieve your

when the weather is bad you have

are obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult a good. reliable ply
sician at once or get from your Phar-

( Well / am now in the north eastern
from the front trenches. We can hear
the continuous canonading (deleted
by censorD night We can see the signal
light. The French aeroplanes pass
over us ell the time but as yet no Ger
man craft has found us.
We are in little town of about
four hundred people. 1t is about a
mile from the railroad and the inhabi-
tants of said place are much behinG
the times They pIow with oxen and
thrash their grain with fIaH. One
fellow has a thrashing machine. One
horse pulls it to the place and then
he is pat on to the tread and runs the
whole works. After working all day
with the dam machine they have
thrashed about two sacks of wild oats.
The queer thing about this town is
the houses. They are all the same.
They all come together in front, the
street looks a lot like business
block in the states. The house and
the barn are in the same building.
The difference between the house and
the barn is the house has "a floor and
the barn hasn't. The lofts are very
large and in these said lofts Uncle
SANS soldiers have their humble
homes. We have fine large barn for
home. The worst part of our home is
the fact that a few regiments of lice
were there first. Yet it leaks and We
can count the stars and see the
ground but it is our home, We use
beds that the French army used but
they were built for speed and not for
comfort.
