THOUSAND EGGS ARE
LAID BY SAME HEN

College Station, Raleigh, Feb. 81
For the third time in the history of
the State College experimental poul-
try flock, hen has exceeded the L.
000-egg mark in production, it was
announced today by Roy S. Dear
styne, head of the college poultry de-
partment. This time it was a single
comb White Leghorn, listed in flock
records as B 2110.
This hen was Matched March g.
1882, and she still is in production,
offering possibilities that she will go
on to greater achievements.
Since the State College Poultry
Department began studies of perfor-
nance over long period of time
seven years ago, two other hens, both
Leghorns, produced 1000 eggs or
more. The best Of these is A 80,
which is still living. Although she is
not in production at the present time
Prof. Dearstyne said that it is hoped
she will resume laying. To date A
80 has laid 1874 eggs. The other L.
O0O-egg hen in the State College flock
is A 70.
The hen, A 80, has two daughters
which stand a reasonable chance OF
producing 1000 eggs. They are: D
sc, which has produced 622 eggs in
three years, and C 81, which has
produced $50 eggs in four years.

General. Assembly
Sorry for Victims
OF BERTHE Storms
Daily Dispatch Bureau,

Raleigh, Feb. 27.-The general as
sembly is sorry for the victims of
the BERTHE county tornado, and on
motion of Representative John Kerr,
Jr., adopted joint resolution ex-
pressing sympathy. But there isn't
anything that the legislature can do
in the way of extending immediate
relief. There is precedent for some
relief later, in authorizing remission
or extension of time on certain taxes,
and fixing moratorius on loans. For
Immediate relief the neighborhood
must look to Red Cross and the good
heartedness of neighbors.

Commissioner Kerr Scott vouches
for the truth of this story: When the
argument with the college began to
warm up a few weeks ago, one of
the commissioners good friends from
upstate came by the office. Mr..
Scott reminded him of the difficult
ties, and said he wanted the friend
to stand by for the duration of the
war. "Of course, I'll stand by YOU"
said the visitor. ''By God, we're both
good Presbyterian elders, amt WEI"
Sometimes innOcent-looking titles
cover subject matter in bills that
amaze the introducer, when it is
explained to him. Take the Mallard
bill prohibiting use of secondhand
containers for agricultural. produce.
1t was offered by request, and, since
it was designed to protect the health
of citizens and prevent spread of
plant diseases, it looked all right.
When the committee got to really
studying it and found that it was so
stringent that a farmer couldn't take
a buShel of potatoes to town in an
old feed bag or orange crate, and
that trucks couldn't drive by the
field and buy bulk produce and
load it in baskets or boxes which
had been previously used, the COM
mittee went up in the air.
Mr.. Marrard wasn't at the COM
mittee hearing, but Representative
Boswood, of Currituck, whose speech
seldom runs to levity, much less to
profanity or vulgarity, apoligized for
quoting Mr.. Mallard, who had said:
Il introduced that bill by request.
It'll be all right with me for you to
kill the damn thing if you want to-"
The agricultural committee obliged
by a vote of some twenty to one,
Bombshell Page being the sole mega
tor.

Capital Gossip

Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, Feb. 27.-The house of
representatives was Scrapping over
the Madison county board of health
bill which Republican Bailey wanted
powerfully to pass. He had lots of
good help from such Democrats as
Pete Murphy, Odus Null and Zeb
burlington Pitts John Moore also
was pleading for fair treatment. Dan
TompkinS, only western newspaper
man in the house, who treats Repub-
licans like the farmer did circus
snakes. "kills 'em where he finds

minority Democrats in Madison. He
asked John Moore: Don't you be-
lieve that minority groups ought to
be recognized" iii answer that this
way" said Moore. mot a man in this
house got here by minority vote"
In the same debate Murphy said
he always supported everybodys
local bills, and expected to keep on
doing it. That brough Zeb Turing
ton standing right quick. "I'm going
to vote with this boy on his bill, but
it is a dangerous policy to say that
YOU will support any local bill of
whatever kind. There are some mat
ters that are essentially statewide
in scope" A by-stander commented:
He amt going to let 'em put by any
local liquor bills without fight"
One of the neatest ''high brow"
expressions heard lately was made
by c. w. Tillett, of Charlotte, speak
ing for APP before the finance COM
mittee. He was talking about the
market for farm produce afforded
by the chain grocery stores, and
called to mind conditions of farm
boys years ago who had no place to
sell their small produce, and said
that the picture remained in his
mind "as the abiding illustration of
despair" s31e TsaEM

ROBERT SERVICE IN POLAND AS WAR STARTS

Robert w. Service the we'll known poet, known to many Al askanS who were in Dawson in early days of the Klondike, was in Warsaw when the Germans in vaded Poland. He returned to England by a roundabout way, The Guardian of Manchester, Eng, received by J. C. Cook of Fairbanks in it's issue of Septem- Der II, tells of some of his eX- periences. It says:
 Robert w. Service, the we'll known Canadian writer, whose Songs of a Sourdough' was car ried by every Canadian soldier (instead of a field marshaPs bat on) in his knapsack, arrived to- day in London from Warsaw by very roundabout route. He thinks that he and two fellow travellers were the first Britons to arrive out of Warsaw since the war except those who flew.
 He was on an Intourist trip to Russia and arrived in Poland on the day when it was invaded He and his companions had been told nothing of the war Then be gan their difficulties in the seeth ing crowds of soldiers refugees and confused population. The travellers arrived in Warsaw in the morning and at once went to the British consulate, where there were crowds of people ap plying for Visas and money. The Consul had no official money available, but he was doing what he could 10 tackle the unprece- dented conditions. He advised MT. Service and his companions, a Canadian lady and Glasgow Leftwing organiser, to go to Riga.
 "The station was jammed with people struggling for trains and there were many pathetic sights. They got on board and it took them 36 hours to get to Riga. Thence they went to Tallinn, in Estonia and took boat to Stock holm, which went by a round about route which took them a day and half, then from Stock holm to Oslo and Oslo to Bergen finding difficulties everywhere, but at last they sailed in small steamer and reached Newcastle.
