HEN'S LOVE LIFE PERILS EFFORTS SET EGGJEORD Pennington No. 2, Barred Rock Biddy, Shows Signs of Desire to Brood as Lay ing Marathon Continues AOA6SIZ. B. 0 May 38. (DP) Will the yearnings of motherhood poll tht chancae of the hen believed beet fitted to win the egg-laylng record it Agassis experimental farm? A. Pennington, world war veteran and nearby resident, waa concerned tdday as a warm aprlng aim beat down on the pen housing bti chief egg-laying threat Pennington No. 9. Leading Contest. Pennington No. 2, a heavy-set bar red lock hen, la leading In the pres ent year-long egg marathon In eggs laid and points scored. But she Is being guarded with convent strict ness to keep her from going matri monial, Roosters are barred from the general vicinity of her pen, but fanclera wonder If she gets that far away look every morning at sunup when the cocks begin to crow. At last count, Pennington No. 3 bid 199 eggs In 106 days for a total cf 191 polnta. Leghorns Busy. In the white leghorn division the 10 F. O. Evans birds led at the end of 28 weeks with 140D eggs and 1018.11 polnta. This averaged five egga per week per hen. It la considered re markable because leghorns, while steady layera, often produce Inferior eggs. Points are awarded on the following basis; One point for each egg which weighs 34 ouncea to the down, and a penalty of l-10th of a point for each ounce the eggs average under 34 ounces to the doaen. A bonus of l-10th point Is given for each ounce over the amount. Exceedingly bad shaped egga and soft-shelled eggs shell not be officially credited. Named If Wins. To return to Pennington No. S she'll have that long name until she nets a record, at which time she'll be christened with a name of her own. At present her title merely means she la the second hen In the Pennington group. If she falls to amaas any lau rels, she'll be Just another biddy. Such is fame. A hero today , , , What constitutes a world record In egg-laying la somewhat of a mya tery here. The United States has one record, claimed by a California hen, while Australia and other countries also boast high marks. An unofficial world record for a barred rook, same breod as Penning ton No. a, la held by Lady Vlctorlne,. a relative of the present derby fa vorite. She laid 388 egga In Sen tfijrs at Saskatchewan university., . From Heavy Layer, Penny's own mother laid 338 eggs, her granddam 330 and her great granddam 808. The dam of her air laid 908 and his aon was the sire of the granddam who laid 308 eggs. So It can bs seen Pennington No. 9 Is a feather off the old nest and haa heredity on her side provided she can atlck to business and forget her lov life the rest of the contest. A3HEV7LLB, N.
