THE HENS CACkLE.

Mrs. Edwin Noble of Livermore Falls
is entitled to first honors in the Maine
egg laying contest, her 25 Rhode Island
Reds having attained an average of 49,
60 eggs per hen in the six months period
covered by the competition which has
been conducted under the extension SER
vice of the College of Agriculture
There were eight other contestants
whose hens averaged 100 eggs or more
each in the six months. An analysis of
the records by breeds shows that the
Wyandottes had the best general average,
Rhode Reds being second and Barred
Plymouth Rocks third.
This contest was the third held in
Maine. All the hens in the competit ion
were kept on the farms of their owners,
housed and fed according to directions
and the pens and records inspected by the
county agents and state extension poul-
try specialist
The Importance of early Matching of
chickens is emphasized in Mr. WiIbur's
report of the contest, which concludes as
follows: "These figures of production of
hens housed and cared for IN a definite
way by the farmers themselves, on their
own premises, clearly show that when
pullets are Matched early, then properly
selected and cared for, they will produce
fair profit during the winter months"

sun came out again.

Miss Rosebush, but you may be sure
| will never forget your kindness, and
l shall be back very early in the
spring to repay it."
Miss Rosebush had no idea how
Robin could repay her, and she did
not think she had done anything for
which he should, so she Rugged the
wall closer and went to sleep for the
winter.
When she awoke in the spring she
was very much surprised to find
Robin already back from the south,
around her roots with his bin in
very busy manner.
You see, l am keeping my
promise" he chfrped. Il am quite
sure l know why you have never
grown as tall as you should; there
are too many worms around this wall,
but this year you will not be held
back by them. I promise YOU
Every morning and evening Robin
came and worked to repay Miss Rose
bush's kindness of the fall day when
he was caught in the snowstorm, and
when June came all the flowers in the
garden looked with surprise upon
Miss Rosebush's beauty, for she far
outgrew them all.
Up to the top of the stone wall she
grew, and then above it. and her
beautiful pink roses were so large
that everybody passing thar way
stopped to admire them
"Now, what do you suppose hap
pened?" said big red rosebush who
had always been the pride of the
garden. "No one ever noticed Miss
RosebuSh before this summer"
No one could tell, but if they had
asked Robin he could have told them
that it was kind deeds that made her
so beautiful, but though it is said
that little birds tell a great deal,
Robin did not tell what he knew
about Miss Rosebush, and so no one
in the garden found out why she grew
so tall and beautiful that summer.

said Robin, 'but you see I have been

Traders Attempt to Bull Mar

Estimate Fails.

NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-There was
strong effort made by the local
and Wall Street bull element to
Sull the cotton market here direct
~ after the opening on the Census
Bureaus ginning report. Its fig
ures were seized upon in an effort
20 discredit last weeks government
crop estimate of $4,000 bales.
The report showed 7.799,45s bales
ginned to December IS, against l.
640S70. the revised figures in the
last report. which covered the total
ginning of the crop to November
30. Although this total compared
with the recent private report OF
1911 900 bales. put out by the Ma
tional Ginners' Association. a diff
ference of only $4,000 bales. great
deal of stress was placed upon the
fact that but 1892 bales had been
ginned from the last ginning
period This led to the circulation
Of claims that the governments
recent crop estimate would prove
to have made another mistake and
largely over-estimated the yield
although there was, OF course
nothing but conjecture or guess
work to back up such contentious.
The fact is several more ginning

will be given out before the final
report for the season is rendered.

crop ginned will be shown, together
with the amount of linters in the
