Secretary Laying Competitions
Two decisive features are noted in
the thirty-third week of the Eleventh
Philadelphia North American Inter-
national Egg-Laying Competition at
Milford, Del; one, the pen score of
7O2 eggs, made by entry No. 2S. and
the score of 200 eggs, made by bird
in pen %. These scores are notable
in that they clearly indicate the pos
sibility of producing layers above the
average by intensive breeding, and
that the environment of the competi-
tion is such that maximum output is
thoroly feasible; also, that the feed
system and ration produces maximum
results, while maintaining a low NOR
tality.
Both pen and Individual engaged in
these top scores have shown ability
to stand up under all conditions en-
countered since the opening date, No
vember 1, 1921, and they appear now
to be possessed of ample stamina to
carry them thru to the end of the
year, October 81.
Unless some decided change occurs
to lessen aggregate productions, pen
28 will continue in first place, and
there is little chance for any indi-
vidual to overcome the lead now held
by bird in the leading pen.
For second place in pens, No. is
sufficiently ahead to hold its position
for some time to come, especially so
since it is laying at very good aver
age rate; it's total score is sos. Third
place is rather well fixed, but changes
can occur in fourth place which may
make quite a difference in the two
pens now within a few eggs of each
other; fourth pen, 613, and fifth pen'

Peak was reached in the twenty
fourth week.
In this competition general output
has been low. Just how far respon-
sible Is the matter of season on this
years production is impossible of de-
terminationT what effect last years
growing season had, If any, on this
years egg output is unknown. Wheth-
er this is a recessive year will be
proved by next years dominance, and
1t is a fact that off years occur pc
riodically in all laying competitions.
Heredity plays vital part in build
ing an egg strain, but heredity In
animals has it's exceptions, just as 1t
does in humans or plants. Whole
fiocks are affected by hereditary
lapses. Not only will the years pro-
duction suffer from these lapses, but
future f1ocks produced from breeders
selected from such lapsed fiocks.

Each week the subjoined table will
set forth such superficial character
istics as indicate productiveness Of
each Individual in certain pens. The
characteristics indicating productive
ness are:

Some little strength is being devel-
oped by pens below fifth place, and a
sustained squirt may place these pens
so close together, or so far apart, as
to make definite positions before the
year is near its finish by several
weeks.
First bird again laid eggs, the
number required to reach an even
200. Second bird dropped to 2 eggs
for the week because of broodiness
for five days. Third bird bettered its
position by laying eggs and now
stands at a total Of 159, against sec
ond birds 1872. Fourth. fifth, sixth,
seventh and eighth birds score. re-
spectively, 1856, 154, 151, $50 and $50
Pen 81 laid 80 for high weekly pro-
duction, followed by pens 2S and Al,
with 81 eggs, and pens 7S and 50, with
26 eggs. Seven pens laid 20 or more
eggs.
Total production for the week was
1875 eggs. There has been a steady
upward tendency in yields for the last
few weeks, which Is contrary to the
general, tendency at this time Of the
year The peak of production has
been passed, and each succeeding
week should show a gradual decrease
until the end of the year.

WHAT'S COMING TO HIM.

The minions of the law are waiting
for the opportunity to capture boot
logger who is selling moonshine liquor
to minors in Athena. For sometime
it has been known that boys here
have been securing liquor from some
source, and the source is said to be
under surveillance by the authorities.
The minute conclusive evidence is Sec
ured and the law has taken its course,
short shift should be given the cul-
prit's residence in Athena. Saturday
night, an Athena youth, soused to
the ears in moonshine was escorted
home by Marshal Taylor, after he
had made himself obnoxious by his
rowdyism on the streets. Had the
officer known that a lady residing on
Third street had been frightened by
the lads riotious conduct, he would
probably have jailed him instead Of
leading him home. A sweating-out
process in court might have elicitated
the information the officers are seek
ing.

the Zuyder zee formed the most mn
portant subject Of discussion. 1t was
pointed out that the drainage would
make necessary the construction of
number of new canals. One speaker
pleaded that the building of new vii
lages and factories near the polders
should not be left to mere chance. Viii
lagos with churches should be built
near the canals, but industrial works
near the dykes. Such an arrangement
would prove of advantage to shipping,
and would prevent any pollution of the
polder water. A number of the water
ways connecting the Zuyder zee ports
are to be preserved, but wherever
polders form continuation Of the ex-
listing land, new harbors will have to
be made.-Scientific American.

where he went to educate the nations
into participation in the international

the realization by personal contact
with economic and material condi-
tions over there, that of all Europe
an nations, but one, little Switzerland,
none will be able to take part. lie
finds over there a battle for bread
with little or no means to secure it,
in. place of financial ability or incli-
nation to exhibit impoverished and
broken industrial effort. This is as
Mr.. Meier saw it and as it is report
ed by him after his arrival in New
York on his homeward voyage. To
this clearcut, impartial reasoning of
one who perhaps had more interest

Baker of Portland, says, Damn the

among the most powerful evil
dences that morality is being re-
duced to a law ebb, we notice that
suicides are becoming almost as
common as house burglaries." This
sounds like a modern wall, but it
was printed in The Oregonian fifty
years ago. That this was a pretty
tough old world in the palmy days
of Pompeii, or during the reign Of
the Pharaohs, is also quite evident
from ancient inscriptions. We have
no monopoly of evil in A. D. 1922,
and perhaps are not quite so dcgen-
crate as we sometimes fool our.
selves into thinking we are.
