Only a hen miracle can change the
relative positions Of the three higher
pens and two leading individuals in
the Twelfth Philadelphia North Amer
lean International Egg-Laying Com
petition staged on the grounds Of Della
ware state board Of agriculture at Mil
ford, Del, and under the boards eirect
supervision.
Pen 81 now holds the very handsome
total score OF 1910 eggs at the end OF
the fiftieth week; pen % scores 11SS and
pen 9S totals 113O; the latter pen is
laying at a greater rate than first and
second pens and will, in consequence,
very probably reduce the distance be-
tween itself and Second-place birds.
First pen to lose its place must be-
come entirely inactive in the two weeks
until closing date and second pen must
remain at least as productive as it is
now to defeat the leader. Five birds
in pen % are laying and only three
birds in pen Ct are active; another bird
n pen 81 will almost certainly resume
laying next week, the fifty-first Of the
competition year and possibly the fifth
bird may do likewise. These proba-
bilities go to support the contention
that only a miracle can give pen %
leadership in the next two weeks, for
high pen would be required to cease
laying altogether and pen % would
be required to yield IA eggs in each Of
the two weeks before October 81.
/ Practically the same condition exists

added to the list this week, in addition
to pens that have become inactive.
Totals this year will be well above
the average. Pen and individual scores
will not equal the best made in these
competitions, but both will be of a
highly satisfactory nature. High bird
will not reach 300; it will go very near
it, only few eggs below, while it will
have a number of runners-up.
Leading pen should reach around 1915
eggs by closing date. If the two in
active members of this pen resume lay
ing there will be no question about
reaching 1915, or an average of 249 for
each bird
The list of birds above 200 will be
added this week and also in the next
TWO weeks. Very likely this list viii
run over 14O for the 500 birds engaged.

This is one of the largest lists ever
made in any competitor conducted in
this country.
All birds scoring 200 or more eggs In
fifty weeks are listed below:
Milford chronicle., 1923-10-26
Notes

'Tis the beginning of the season of
eggs from pullets; tits the beginning of
winters profit for many a beginner.
To the experienced it may be we'll to
say word or two sat may be helpful
in the big success that all amateurs
desire. Cleanliness means less disease.
Disinfect regularly. Clean litter means
less disease, especially if the grain is
fed on the floors. Dryness is always
necessary to good health. If moisture
appears give more air to the front of
the house.
From the first to the last egg this
years pUllets are going to be the base
of many a profitable calculation. When
the year is over and the history of the
birds is compiled there will be many
surprises. Some will have been broody
too often; some will have molted before
the year is up, and many viii fail to
beach the 25O-egg standard set for
breeders.
From the trapnest will be known the
male. If his pullet is good his sons
be used as breeders, just as he VIII be
used to further continue his line.
New corn may cause a lot of trouble
with digestion in the flock. Don't use
it; buy old corn until the new corn
is seasoned.

278 to date, with every possibility Of
reaching 2SS in the remaining two
