BIRDS
LONG ON EGGS
IN STATE TEST

Hens owned by T. H. Short, of Doug
las. landed first honors for November
in the sixth egg laying contest now in
progress at the Arizona agricultural
experiment station at Tucson, Accord
ing to announcement made by the
director of the contest. Mr. Shorts
pen took first honor with the high
score of 212 eggs and he also owned
the high individual hen which ended
the month with 81 eggs to her credit.
The announcement of the Novem-
ber results in the sixth contest were
issued with a reference to the results
of the fifth contest in which the aver
age production for the entire period
was 587 and this was said to have
been the second best contest in the
United States, giving the Arizona hen
"a creditable record.
1t is a noticeable fact that the birds
entered in the sixth contest are COM
ing into production earlier than those
which have been entered in former
contests. There are relatively few un-
developed birds. With the exception
of one pen all birds finished the first
month in splendid shape.
Artificial lights will not be used.
With a 1876 per cent production this
contest is getting good start The
heavy class showed an average of 1872
per cent, while the light class led the
way with an even 81 per cent produc-
ton.
High pen for the month was owned
| by T. H. Short and laid 212 eggs. Lee
Apel's entry was second with 200 eggs,
while Carl Slater's pen No. II was a
close third, having a production OF
1876 eggs.
W. F. Fetterly had high pen for the
month in the heavy class, his Rhode
Island Red entry laying 125 eggs. II.
l.. Schornick's pen was second with
! 118 eggs and Phil Hirchey'S Rhode
Island Reds were third with record
of 110 eggs.
High individual hen was owned by
T. H. Short, and laid 27 eggs. Mrs.
J.. R. Bradshaw had the second high
bird of the light class, her White
Leghorn pullet No 191 laying 25 eggs
i A triple tie for third place exists be-
1 tween hen No. 145 belonging to Carl
Slater hen No. SO belonging to the
] Del Rio.
Phil FIirchey owned the two highest
record birds in the heavy class, his
hens Nos. IL and 118 having laid 25
and % eggs respectively. W. F. Fet-
terly had two birds, each laying q
eggs, while Hen No. 35, entered by Rev
i Anderson, laid a like number.

weather looked for throughout the corn
belt gave a lively upturn to corn
values today and lifted other grain as
well. Good export inquiry for corn
was also a stimulating factor, and it
was pointed out that the 1927 Euro
pean corn crop is approximately 200,-
900 900 bushels short of the 1926 total.
Despite setbacks at the start, the
corn market closed firm, 3sc to "a at
%c net higher, with wheat 1sc to 5sc
up oats at nc to 1c advance, sand
provisions varying from SC decline to
rise of 7c.
Besides forecast of snow and rain
for the entire corn belt talk was cur
rent that corn was being bought for
export at the Gulf of Mexico at 414c
bushel over the price of Chicago
December delivery Furthermore, the
onset of the corn belt storm was ex-
pected to delay the completion of corn
huSking and to hinder the rural move
ment of corn to market. Inasmuch as
initial weakness of corn values today
was based largely on good weather,

tions with reports of bli~>

majority of traders.
Attention later focused more and
more on increasing notice of corn ex-
port business. Gable adviceS at hand
told of large prospective European re-
Guirements and of heavy consumer
buying abroad. In addition, New York
messages said export demand for cash
corn was developing both with Great
Britain and continental Europe. Mean
while, Argentine and European corn
markets were firm, and country offer
ings to Chicago were moderate for this
time of year, as we'll as being mainly
well out of line with current prices
Wheat prices held within narrow
limits, and were governed mostly by
the action of corn. UnWelcome show
ers were reported in some parts of
Argentina where cutting and thresh-
ing is in progress. The aggregate of
wheat trade was light, and the mar
ket easily influenced.
Oats and rye were in good demand,
especially toward the end of the day.
Provisions showed irregularity, being
affected in opposite directions by the
trend of grain and that of hog values.

NEW YORK, Dec @9-Frequent
shifts of speculative sentiment impart-
ed considerable irregularity to today's
stock market, but major speculative &C
tivity was again on the upside. Final
quotations disclosed a rather long list
of gains ranging from to nearly II
points, and smaller number of de-
clines, some of which ran from 3 to
nearly points.
President Coolidges message to con-
gress was about in line with Wall
street expectations, but its publica-
ton was followed by rather heavy
selling movement on the theory that
the "good news was out" and that the
market was entitled to a reaction on
technical grounds. Good support was
Forthcoming, however, and irregular
recoverieS took place during the after
noon.
Crossing of the $4,000, 100000 mark
by stock exchange member loans and
a Az per cent renewal for call money
tended to restrict operations for the
advance, but the money rate dropped
to per cent by early afternoon and
bullish operations we're resumed with
considerable violence in a few spec
ialtieS
One of the most significant develop
ments of the day was the announce
ment of shipment of $1,000,000 in
gold to Great Britain the first since
the war, coincident with further adj
vance in the sterling exchange rate to
a new high level This movement to
England is not expected to reach large
proportions, because of a rather gen
eral belief that large exports would
lead to reduction of British discount
rates, and consequent withdrawal of
American balances in London.
Standard industrials continued to
fluctuate within a rather narrow trad
ing range in the absence of any i'm
portant trade developments. General
Motors closed about a point higher at
1885, U. S. Steel common showed a
net loss of Is at 1443s and General
Electric fell back nearly a point to
1905.

TOM JONES FIRST

Writing from Phoenix, w. P. Nc
Nair calls attention that error crept
into the story recently printed in The
Dispatch concerning the opening OF
the Gadsden hotel on Thanksgiving
day, 1907. 1t was printed that Thomas
Law was the first manager, but Nc
Nair says that Tom Jones was, the
first and he relates an incident as to
why he is certain. He says that he
was then located at Bisbee and shortly
after the Gadsden was opened he had
a wire from Tom Jones asking that he
stop a pell-hop who had decamped
with some property of guest of the
hotel.
