When the judges at the poultry shows are tying up the ribbons the Veatcb pens always come In for their full share of the blue ones. And now that the recounting of egg laying reiordx has reached such an n'tite stage, Mr. Ventch smiles and says a few things as be get-i into the game. Ventch bad a pen of five black Min orca hens that on a number of ocens- ions gave him six eggs In one day, and lately a pen of ten hens produced eleven eggs between sun and sun. Veau h says that It Is not clear In his mind whether one ben had done double duty, or the rooster, who made the eleventh member of the pen, had been helping out In the egg ! production line. He also clouds the record n tilt more when he tells of a neighbor who w as cm ournglng a lady member of the household In the chicken busi ness. That the lady might not become discouraged at the number of eggs credited to the flock each day. the neighbor would surreptitiously put a tew extra eggs in tne nests, to be gathered by the lady In the even- ing. Of course the deputy clerk s.vs that these extra eggs enme from the Ventch brand of Mlnorcas. Out ho does not think that his own 11 nek needed any outside assistance In the performance which he now credits up to them. I t 4 i .
