SToRRS HENS IMMUNE
 TO GOLD WEATHER
Nearly Every Pen is in Fine condi.
 ton,

Cold weather has continued so long that the hens in the laying contest seem to have acquired at least partial Immunity. Nearly every pen is in fine condition; the birds have nice red combs; fresh litter has been put into the houses and the scratch grain has been fed oftener than usual during the past few weeks. In short the man. aSement has tried to keep the hens
 busy. because the busy hen is the hap py and the productive hen. In the
 twelfth week the birds laid a total of
 2O86 eggs or 500 more than for the preceding week and while such rapid gains can not be expected each week, still it is believed that the curve of egg production will continue to rise
 for the next three months. The best
 weekly record during the current con-
 test was made in the twelfth week by 4. P. Robinson's pen of White Leg
 horns, from Caiverton, IT. Y. They laid an even 50 eggs. Thomas J Adamson's Barrsd Rocks from Laurel
 Quebec, and F. w. Harris' White Wy
 andottes from Melrose, N. Y,,. tief fol
 second place with 42 GEES each. Two other pens of White Wyandottes en- tered by Obed G. Knight, Bridgeton R. l., and Brayman Farm, Westville i N. H.. came third and fourth with 4( and 3S eggs respectively. The contest birds ara not of course mated. They are rUIlets and wonll not be used for breeders. For these however, who intand to batch chick. the time has arrived when the birds should be mated. T. is true that one can get fertile eggs within four or five days after the introduction of a male but in general t isn't safe to wal until the last minute. It is better tt
 mate the birds several weeks ahead O the time tb2t the eggs are to ho uset for matching.

During the past week so
terrific has been the fighting
that it has been impossible to
keep these colored troopers in
the trenches. for going "over
the top" is like a mere song to
them When they begah their
attack on the towns of Sande-
mont and Recount they ran the
Huns from their trenches and
kept them on the run until
they captured both towns and
several villages the other side
of Recount. 1t was then that a
command was given them to
halt or retire for rations and
rest, but these brave black
soldiers would not heed the
c o m m a n d until they had
driven the enemy cut OF sight

had been sent in the enemy's

continued just as he leaped
from his place in the trenches
to JOIN the boys over the top
just as they we're getting reaoy
