STACKER. PULLETs ARE

TO FEEL THE AXE
 A relentless search for the "slackers'' of the feathered 1ocks was made last week by the New London County Farm Bureau in ten different communities. Nearly 200 people turned out to gather few of the pointers given by Profes- sor Jones of the Agricultural college on how to pick out the culls that it will not pay to keep over winter and how to sep arate the extra good bullets from the rest of the flock
 A few of the points specially emphasized by Professor. J ones may be stunned up as follows: CD Early maturity is an es- pecially good sign in. pullets.. la a flock of 50 or more bullets matched at the same time, some of these birds will mature much faster than others and will come into laying from one to several weeks ahead of others in. the same flock. This indicates that the early maturing birds are able to make better use of the feed given them and will usually make better layers. This is not often the case, how ever, but the other factors given below must be taken into consideration. CD The size and shape of the body of the bullet will make a very important bullet is very important.

THE AMERICAN OLYMPIC TEAM.

1t goes without saying that the Amer
lean athletic team, which leaves this
afternoon for Belgium to participate in
the 1920 Olympics at Antwerp, will be
one If the, leading contestants in the
great international meet. The team
has some of the best talent that can
been gathered together from one end of
the continent to the other; and some
of them, in addition to having given
remarkable performances in their own
land, have taken part in other Olympic
games, thus giving them the benefit
of experience in international arenas.
There is no disposition to be unduly
boastful of the athletic manhood of the
United States, but there is appreela-
ton of the fact that the United States
has not yet entered upon stage of
decline in athletics, which stage, so
the students of history declare, marks
the decline of national prominence as
well. The American athletic star is
yet in the ascendsncy. Therefore. it is
expected that the United States will
give a good account of herself in the
International competition. The ath-
letes depart for the foreign shore with
the best wishes and good measure OF
confidence of the American people.
May each and everyone of them strive
TO the uttermost even though the odds
may seem to be against some Of them.
Doing that, there is a possibility that
the banner of victory will come back 10
the United States. In any event their
competitors will know that they have
been in real contest.
