VIRGINIA BOASTS CHAMPION
EGG-LAYING PULLET OF WORLD

Virginia can add another leaf to her
home of the champion egg-laying
pullet of the world. This is no idle
boast of an overproud owner, either,
for this fowl was officially announced
the champion egg producer at the
Delaware Agricultural College, in Mil
ford, Del. November 1, 1921, under
the auspices OF the Philadelphia
North American contest.
This admirable chicken is Lady
Egg-a-Day, who proved a right to
her name by producing 343 eggs in
365 days. She is a buff orpington. and
belongs to Capt. I. Brooks Clarke,
known as Egg-a-Day Farm, at Wen
ma, Va. Lady Egg-a-Day was bred
scientifically by Capt Clarke, who
established his first farm of this name
In 1910, and recently moved south.
Previously he had farm Of thirty
five acres in Meriden, Conn. Lady
Egg-a-Day's record was not touched
during the past year. Although Capt
Clarke was offered $4,000 for her the
day she made the official record, and
has since then received many other
offers. he would not consider for a
moment selling this valuable bird.
He has never sold a single chicken
of hers nor a single one of her ample
supply of eggs.
Daughter Also q Favorite.
Now, Capt. Clarke is particularly
proud of Lady Egg-a-Day's debutante
daughter, who made her formal debut
November /, 1922, when she was en-
tered in similar contest. Already
she promises to fulfill, if not exceed.
her mothers record. She has laid
fifty-one eggs in sixty three days.
For three of the past nine weeks she
has laid seven eggs a week and laid
six a week the other three weeks.

ROW OVER CENTRAL
| PACIFIC LINE ENDS
Southern Pacific Will Retain
Ownership of Disputed
Railroad.
By the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
OMAHA, Neb., January 16.-
Through Union Pacific sources 1t was
known here today that plan Tor
the settlement of the controversy
between the Union Pacific and the
Southern Pacific railroads over pos
session of the Central Pacific lines
had been accepted by the Union Pa
cific. subject to adjustment of traffic
details. The compromise plan, 'ac-
cording to statement made by Carl
Gray. president of the Union Pacific,
to the Omaha Bee, was proposed sew
eral days ago by the Interstate Com
merce Commission and a hearing on
tho proposal will be had before the
commission at Washington next Fri
day.
It could not be learned here OFF,
cially whether the Southern Pacific
had accepted.
The settlement would leave the
Southern Pacific as owner of the
Central Pacific lines, but would guar
antee sufficient use of the line, run
ming from Ogden to San Francisco
by the Union Pacific.
The commissions proposal was re-
ceived in Omaha by {. E. Childe,
traffic manager of the Omaha Cham
Der of Commerce. Mr.. Childe left
for Washington, Sunday night, and it
is understood that President Gray,
". II. Loomis, general solicitor: III. A.
Scandrett, interstate commerce at
torney for the Union Pacific. and
other Union Pacific officials would go
to Washington today.
Congress authorized regrouping
OF railroad lines into new systems
under the provisions of the Esch-
Cummins act, passed in 1922, and
under that authority the Southern
Pacific began q bitter fight to retain
the Central Pacific.
Omaha railroad men interpret the
proposal of the commission as mean
ing that the commission considers
that the Esch- CumminS act as super
ceding the Sherman antitrust act
and the Supreme Court decisions re-
lating to this case.

Here is a country with a coast limo
which holds many difficulties for
him who goes forth to seek knowl-
edge OF this wild Inc virgin land.
Treacherous tides rise and fail forty
feet. recede miles from the beaches
and currents whirl and rush at tho
speed OF a railroad train: while ALI
gators, sharks. strange fish. seacows,
turtle and all manner of weird sea
growths and sea snakes infest the
bays, inlets and rivers.

Wild aborigines roam the land.
moving hither and thither according
to the foo supply. though in most
cases the tribes of the actual seaboard
cling to certain locations where h
fish and other sea foods abound.
Numerous little Islands and coral
reefs dot the coast, numbers of
these islands being inhabited by wild
tribes, while the reefs which are
mostly all concealed by the sea at
high water. gradually merge as the
tide falls. appearing like magic
islands.
From these reefs some OF the most
beautiful and rarest coral specimens
in the WORLD have been obtained.
Some twenty-three ear ago. de
