The next afternoon the minister's
blackboard stopped in front of the
paupers' home. Several men and boys
were slOuchlng about the yard, and on
a bench near the door were four or
five old women. Mrs. Perry glanced
there.
"Not one o. them," she said; "Cyn-
thia wouldn't grow to look like that"

POULTRY WRITER DEPLORES
SHOW ATTENDANCE FAILURE

writer in the Poultry Item for
April, ]. H. Petherbridge, hands out
some pertinent remarks anent the
failure of the public to reach the
poultry showroom.
Among other things he draws pain
full comparisons between going over
the TOP on number of show entries
and going nearer the bottom In at
tendance.
This writer in the Item is strongly
for free admissions, with age re-
strictions-he is positive in this as
sertions that because some Of the
things he did not see at the SHOWS
covered would have, had they been
combined in any single show addeG
greatly to the interest Thereon ana
would have been Of such value as TO

Not a show offered prize Tor anna

Not a show tagged or marked exhi-
hilton GOODS with the names of the

Not a show displayed over S6 per

II is claimed by Petherbridge that
entry fees are too high to induce the
small entrant to come in. Pether-
bridge failed to state that some OF
the staged poultry shows are pure en-

ject Is money making and not exhlDl-

tion year, there will follow in the
next two months all of the solid his
tory-making performances Of those
pens that have been most consistent
in production to date, and any speed
ing is up to those pens that have
from any cause held back in produc-
tion up to the present time.
This early-in-the-year low produc-
ton, which so seriously affects pens
in all competitions, may or may not
be due to heredity, to rations or sus-
ceptibility to climatic changes-it is
equally true, in this connection, that
by selection fall layers have been.
after years Of careful breeding there
for, produced, and this characters
tic is highly pronounced In one strain
that has for years occupied conspic-
uous place in North American COM
petitions. It is also true that several
strains have occupied just as con-
spicous places by running into high
places at the end Of the year, defeat
ing invariably the heavy fall layers.
Also there has been in these compe-
ured we'll UP in high finals, making
every year consistent yields from the
first to the flfty-second week.
Always such peculiarities have been
ascribed to strain, resulting from
breeding by selection.
Preferably the fall layer is para
mount in proht production and should
be more extensively cultivated.

"It will be beautiful" Mrs. BI
murmured-'like the world seend
when 1 was young" She was 4
thinking of the decoration now,
of the beautiful thing Of not being f
gotten that had come so unexpected
to her. The minister gazed at her
moment, and then again turned to
window.
"There will be no failure in t
church decoration" he remarked asl
to Mrs. Perry.
Nor was there, nor in the beautii
thing that had come to the little {
woman. During the decorating S
was like a different creature, and h
face came to be scarcely recognizat
as that which had looked so depreci
ingly at them that afternoon at t
poor farm. When it was all over t
minister went to her impulsively al
grasped both her hands.

"The decoration has been a perfe

But there is another thing 1 wish
speak about. My housekeeper is abO

her place. viii you come and lOt
after the parsonage-and me, too, f
that matter?" with one Of his fran
boyish smiles. "My mother alwa
said I wasn't capable Of looking aft
my clothes and such, things. W

So the beautiful thing which hi
come to her was not of day, but WI
to last through all the remainder
her years.

second high, pen 3, totals 41s, at the
end of thA week.
Third pen, 81, lost in weekly total
laying 10 eggs, while fourth pen' SO'
gained eggs.

minor places and there is, apparently
a dark horse in the running further
down the line-it is quite within the
limits Of chance that history may re-
peat itself and a now fair scoring pen
at least can go into the major set Of
three highest scoring.
This is a matter Of heavy output
hereafter more than past perform
ances; it is reasonable to assume that
the heavier performers in the first half
of the year will slack up later, to some
extent, and the late starters will make
up for lost time. When the yields are
in maximum there will be enough pen
yields above % eggs to carry to heavy
finishes in the finals, and from what
ever can be figured out now there will
be several pens we'll within narrow
margins.
Very little change took place in the
relative positions of high individuals;
bird 8, in pen %, has 1S1 eggs to her
credit in 154 days; second place is held
by bird in pen 2S, 1O2 eggs. Third place
is still held by bird 2, in pen 40; bird 8,
in pen %, scoring 100 eggs for fourth
place; bird /, in pen 50. dropping to
tenth place from fifth place. Very
