Secretary Laying Competitions
Another change in standing of the
three leading pens takes place in the
current week. pen 2S hold'~g its own
with a margin of three eggs, (total 99D,
while pen % goes into second place
(total sSS), pen dropping to third place
(total 9s2), pen 2S laid 10 eggs for the
week, pen % laid % eggs and pen 3
laid eggs.
The difference in rate of yield be-
tween these three pens makes it now al
most impossible for 2S to win, in fact
the molting of certain birds in this pen
precludes anything like a full resump-
tion of yield. In case of pen 3, four
birds are molting and very few eggs
will be laid by this pen before the end
of the competition year.
Pen % is easily a winner, if anything
like the present rate of yield continues.
In the four weeks remaining of the
year there need be but four eggs in
crease by pen 2S over pens 28 and to
win out

DREVENSTEDT FOR V. P.
AMERICAN POULTRY ASSN.

J. H. Drevenstedt, poultry editor Of
the Fancier and Stoclkkeeper, is out for
the vice presidency of the American
Poultry Association. Probably no other
fancier and judge of fancy poultry IS
better known than "Drev," as he is
dubbed by those who know him and
those who do not, nationally and inter
nationally.
His long years of service as a breeder
and judge have endeaTed him to all o.
the poultry world, principally Tor MS
ability, honesty and strong convictions
Drew will undoubtedly make force
full and active official, and if his cleo
tion is a stepping stone to the preSl-
dency the fancy will not suffer. CouIp
the association be bui1t up of DreVs'
politics barred and the membership pe-
come active. then the fancy would re-
ceive an impetus that would carry 1t
forward for a great many years to
come.

his lodging to ponder on the problem
that presented itself
If he told Susan that the property
was not worth bryfEg he would be
eliminating her as possible purchaser.
he would be doing the thing that old
Mr.. Upton had sent him to do, and he
would be given himself an opportunity
to make a desirable commission. After
all this would be nothing more than
sane business.
If, on the other hand he told Susan
that the property was worth the
amount it was actually was, he would
not only be depriving himself of the
promised commission but he would be
betraying the confidence of Mr.. :. Up
ton.
He might tell her nOthing-Simply
make excuses for leaving Fairfield.
and return home to tell Mr.. Upton
that he had failed. The hardest part
Of that was that he didn't want to
leave Susan. In spite of himself he
had become very much fascinated by
this dignified young woman. And she
had not seemed to spurn his advances.
From the first she had seemed to pre-
fer his society to that of any of the
other men in her set.
John Howe pondered these things
for an hour or more, and then before

persuade her not to buy. Likewise he
had found purchaser All that re-
manned now was for events to shape
themselves. He would be back in his
Office he hoped, within ten days.
After that John Howe set out to
WOO Susan TruaX. Two or three after
Susan was a keen horsewOman, and
then there was country walk where
John proposed and was accepted.
Susan did not question his judgment
then when he advised her not to buy
the TruaX property, though she seemed
keenly disappointed at having to let
it slip from her fingers.
Immediately following that Susan
signed the proper papers relinquishing
her kinsman, Mr.. Upton. from her
claim as purchaser, whereupon Mr..
Thad Upton promptly sent word to
John Howe that he might proceed with
the sale, retaining all profit he made
beyond the 100000 Two days later
the $4,000 was in the hands of Mr..
Upton, so apparently Mr.. Howe had
found an immediate purchaser.
Exactly on the day he had said, he
was in his Office and Mr.. Thad Upton
beamingly called upon him.
"As a real estate man you can't be
beat" he said, shaking hands. Il
knew that property was worth more
than $4,000. but didn't suppose there
was any one waiting around to buy it
as quick as that. You're Jim Dandy.
