ONE THOUSAND HENS LAY
 s5e2 EGGS DURING WEEK
In the Thirty eighth Week Of the Lay
 ing Contest at Storrs.

In the thirty eighth week of the contest at Storrs. the 1000 birds laid 25S2 eggs. or a production of 511 per cent. Pens 3. owned by Richard AL len Pittsfeld, Mass. n, owned by Miss N. H. Bell. Ightham, Kent, Eng land, B, owned by A. P. Robinson, GaiYerten, \, r.. won the high honors for the week with a production of 54 eggs each. Pen 5 from Oregon Az ricuitural College, Corvallis, Ore, pen 59, Exmoor Farm, Lebanon, Pa. were second with 5S eggs. Three pens of Leghorns, 6 owned by Greepdale Farms. Greendaie: N T.. B owned by E. A. Ballard. Chestnut Hill, Pa, 6s owned by Will Barren+ Preston. Eng land, were tied for third place with 52 eggs. A pen of Rhode Island Reds owned by the Peauet Poultry Farm, Southport Conn.,. and a pen of Leg horns. owned by, Tom Barron. Pres ton. Epgland. were tied for fourth piace with 50 eggs.
 During tbe thirty eighth week the Teather conditions were extremely upfaForable for eCS production. Four days out of the seven the mercury continued to hang areund 9a degrees Fahrenheit. HeReEer, few birds were lost because of the intense heat. The egg production for the week did not drop off but Yerg- little. being only Toe eggs less than for the proceeding week. It is obvious that. during such extremely hot weather. the birds should be supplied with plenty of fresh water in order that they may guench their thirst and thus help in supplying some of the water necessary for the production of eggs.

Thomas P. Sinnett, Democratic
nominee for state senator in the
Thirty-third district, today issued
the following statement:
The closing OF all public gather
ing places makes it impossible for
me to otherwise address the voters
with reference to my candidacy. !
am taking this opportunity, there
fore, of tersely presenting my ideas
as to what the qualifications of
state senator should be.
The legislature IS the law max
ing body Of this state. 1t is the
medium through which the people
secure for themselves necessary
legislation. Under our system Of
representative government the peO-
pie delegate to agents elected by
them, the power to enact laws. 1t
IS, therefore. Of prime importance
that a senator should have quallf-
cations commensurate with the du-
ties of that office. 1t goes without
proof. that a candidate for the sen
ate, the upper branch OF the Iegts-
ture, should have either a legal
training or should have a proper
knowledge of law and of govern
ment and its functions.
1t is certain that if a man desired
20 have his hair cut, he would go
to a barber and not a plumber, and
it is likewise true, if a man needed
a surgical operation, he would con-
suit a surgeon. If. the people are
to choose a man to represent them
in the law making body of this
state, the man to be so chosen or
elected should have either a legal
training or he should possess quail
ifications in keeping with the duties
of the office.
The failure OF our representatives
to be properly qualified is common
" known, and has made itself felt
upon the history Of the legislation
Of this state by the enactment OF
many laws useless, unnecessary
and unconstitutional. The number
OF laws declared unconstitutional
bv our supreme court is so great
as to bewilder an intelligent citi-
zen. These have resulted in par
from the failure of our repTesen-
tatives to know what the consttu
tional requirements are with refer
ence to the passage Of bills and the
enactment Of them into law. Our
legislators have been so deficient il
I his respect that in reality the PEG
pie have not been represented but
The many mis-
takes and omissions Of duty on the
part OF our legislators have led, as
a result. many of our citizens TO in
dict our system of representative
as a failure
The present session Of the legis-
lature requires. probably more than
any previous one, that the candi-

ASK ALL FORCE

Surgical Dressing Workers Re
quested to Come TO Red Cross
Rooms for Duty.

Surgical dressings workers are
asked to report in full force at the
Red Cross rooms on Monday. All
Edgewood surgical workers are
also asked sto Join with the women
at the central shop in helping turn
out the new quota of 5-yard rolls;
no meeting will be held at Long
fellow school, due to the fact that
the school building is closed Edge
wood women have been promised
a table of their own, where they
will vie with the central workshop
workers for honors in turning out
the most perfect work.
This newest quota which con-
sists of 500 5-yard rolls is an
emergency call which must be met
at once. All women, volunteers as
well as instructors and superVis-
ors, are asked to be ready on Mon
day to shoulder their share. In
addition to the quota of rolls the
material is now on hand for finish
ing the quota of 2,000 pounds.
There is therefore an absolute ne
cessity for immediate action on the
part of every surgical dressings
worker.

UNCLE SANS ARMY
GETS CHEWING GUM

Orders have just been placed by
the quartermasters' corps for -
100000 packages of chewing gum
for the army 1t has been found
that on long marches and where
the troops are unable to get suffi-
cient water. chewing gum is very
effective in relieving thirst.
Recently the commanding officer
OF regiment OF field artillery,
when embarking for overseas ser
vice. stated that $50 pounds Of
chewing gum would save hundreds
OF gallons OF water when most need
ed. He pointed out that chewing
gum is cheap and that there are
times when water IS very expensive
and at times unObtainable.
Precautions as 10 save water are
therefore being taken. The lemon
drops used by the army are pre-
pared from a special formula test
ed for its irst-Quenching quail
ties. Canned tomatoes have also
been found effective for thirst. A
can OF tomatoes in the front line
trenches has several times the re
suits OF the same volume of water.
This is ascribed to the mild acidlty
Of the canned tomato
The subsistence division Of the
quartermasters corps Is constantly
engaged in experiments to discover
ways and means To insure our
troops getting the best foods al all
times and a the same time effect
ing the utmost savings in tonnage.
