and no great surpriye would follow
such an event; it has happened before
and can happen again and is always
expected until the certainty stage is
reached, when the natural decline be-
gins after the middle of the year, about
|the thirtieth to thirty-fifth week.
Until the natural decline anything
can happen; any pen may become
broody; several pens can do the same
thing and permit any follower to slip
ahead.
One Of the best evidences that there
is nothing sure in egg laying, baseball
or love, the leading individual at the
end of last week fell down completely
in the present week and dropped to
fourth place, three pens stepping out
and laeding the former title holder by
from two to three eggs.
Another evidence of the uncertainty
of performance of even more than
whole set of leaders is the strong urge
that is bringing up to formidable places

For the first time so far this year

of yield very much above the average,

ootEetaly Laying compositions
With persistent evenness the three
leading pens Of egg layers, three of the
100 entrants comprising the Thirteenth
Philadelphia North American Interna-
tional Egg Laying Competition, staged
on grounds of Delaware state board of
agriculture, Milford, Del. and under
its supervision, maintain their positions
with but few eggs separating first and
second pens. Third pen is further from
second place score, but is laying at the
same general rate.
In the twenty-third week Of the pres
ent official year pen 27 White Wyan-
Gottes lead with a total output of $40
eggs for the five birds making up the
pen; pen %, White Wyandottes, holds
second place with a total of $40 eggs.
and pen So is in third place with a score
of 500 eggs. Pens GA, 65 and 2S follow in
the following order: 519, sos and sos. This
list of six pens includes all those that
have reached or gone over 500 in the
twenty-three weeks.
Next week several pens will enter the
500 list, four pens showing ample abil-
ity to lay sufficiently to reach this
total. OF course. it is not a certainty
that these pens will all make this
figure, but present scores and present
rate of yield indicate that such will be
the case.
Later one or two pens may lay so
heavily in warmer weather as to over
