HENS WITH LAYING
RECORDS PROFITABLE
LET THE HENS PAY OFF THE
FARM MORTGAGE -THE-AD-
!.. VICE GIVEN.
CORVALLIfl, Or.. April 25 The
convention of a flock of hena that bare
ly paya for the feed It eata Into one
which will lift the mortgage from the
home farm la largely a matter of the
elimination of the "star boarder," and
the conservation of, tho 200-egg-a-year
hena. Prof. Dryden of tho Oregon
Agricultural Collego haa made a apo
dal atudy of thla aubjoct and la a
Arm believer In tho trap-neat.
"To. discover the egg type of hen
we have got to use the trapnest, or
aome method of' keeping a record of
egga laid by Individual hena," he haa
aald. The trapnest la about the beat
thing we have discovered! In lhe pouL.
try bualneaa. Wo will make alow Im-
provement In breeding without an egg
record for each hen In the flock. The
objection to the trapnest la that It re
quires (oo much labor for the farmer.
That la true. Not many farmera can
givo il ine necessary time. I Deueve
that the State or experiment atatlon
ahould come to the rescue here. There
should be a breeding atatlon, or aov-
oral breeding atatlona. In every State
where farmera could aecure at noml
nal prlcea cockerela of good egg-lay
fcia oedigree to mate with their flocks,
It would not' take very long to furnish
every farmer with a male bird whoae
ancestry for two generations nad an
egg record of 150 egga a year or more,
We say It la the hen or vigor tnat
lava. We say without constitutional
vitality she will not lay. That la un
doubtedly true. A hen may have the
egg laying capacity, but without vigor
he won't produce egga. on tne oiner
eay havo-ior -wiuxoui
egg-laying capacity. She may have
constitutional vitality and lay Iqbs
than 20 egga a year." The point la that
bv aeleetlnc for vigor alone wo won't
make very rapid progress In breeding
up a atraln of layera. Wo have to ae
I eel for both vigor and egg capacity.
- - . . , . . W-
The traonest enablea.ua to do thla.

good vitality, ao that a high egg record
la an Indication or nign vuamy. n
possible, of course, that the 200-egg
hen will not produce chlcka of good
vigor; It la more poaalble that her
egga may not be very fertile. That la
another question. It la poaalble that
very heavy laying may injure her
breeding qualltlea; that ia A debatable
point. But the fact remalna that the
hen that laya 150 egga or more a
year haa good vitality, and It la auch
hena that wo must depend upon to in
crcaae tho egg yield make poultry
keeping mora profitable. A high egft
record Indlcatea conatltutlonal vitality
stamina. Tho trapneat. therefore,
aelecta for vigor aa well aa egg-laying
capaolty. '
"If each State would take hold of
thla in earneat, I believe that In a few
yeara It would add millloaa ol dollara
to the profiU of the poultry keeper,
and at the aamo time help aolve the
problem of the natlon'a food aupply.

DARE-DEVIL GIRLS

w ' ' '
HAD ONE FALLEN OVER DEATH
WOULD MOST CERTAINLY
HAVE RESULTED.
Two little girla were doing dare
devil stunts -on the brow of the bluff
Just above the Southern Pacific depot
Tuesday after school. They would
approach the brow of the hil and do
antlca which they knew to be danger
ous and of a dare-devil nature, partly
for their own amusement and partly
to show off to the people below. Sev
eral women were considerably agitat
ed at the risk taken by the little girla,
and cautioned them and advised them
to go back and stay away from the
bluff.
' The children were taking consider
able risk, though not aa much aa It
looked to be from below. But at that
the parenta would have been very
anxious had they known the whero-
ahwrtafthe hlldren-. andMhrff
would most certainly have been cor
poral punishment had the parents
seen the danger Into which the child
ren pushed themselves.
Not only for the good of the child
ren but for the peace of mind of those
who were worried by the children
should there be a caution given to
children by parenta. The child who
doea fall over the bluff la certain to
be seriously Injured, while the chances
are good that the one falHng would
meet death. .
