EGG-LAYING CONTEST 
In answer to many questions about tin's egg- 
laying contest, the following facts are given: 
It is held at Storrs Postoffice in connection 
with the Connect leu i Agricultural College. The 
contest begins .November 1. There* arc 10 pul¬ 
lets in each pen. All the birds receive uniform 
treatment. The houses arc all alike, and the 
feed is the same for all. The contest continues 
for one year. The weekly records cover the 
number of eggs laid for each pen In the current 
week, and also flip total number of eggs laid 
since the first of lust November. The contest 
will end November 1, at which time these birds 
will lie removed, and another set of pullets 
entered for the next year.

INTERNATIONAL—the popular kerosene engine, is 
as faithful and willing a helper as you can find, in a 
life-time of searching. One that neither grumbles nor 
shirks but just chugs away all day and night, if need 
be, and doesn’t ask for over-time pay. 
An engine that pleases the boy and the hired man 
because it does the pumping and keeps the tank filled 
with clean, fresh water when the weather is hottest 
and the stock most in need of water. 
An engine that pleases the women folks—by taking 
the hard work out of wash day and by running 
the churn, cream separa- 
tor, etc. /~C 
An engine that the family 
likes because it saws wood, 
grinds feed, shells corn, 
runs the fanning mill, and 
handles a dozen other [ 
jobs. It does these easier, 
faster, and better than you . b 1 
can do them by hand. / m t 
The smaller sizes, the /j 1: vjfy 
powerful 1 x /t and 3-horse \ 
power engines, are the 
most popular for many of 
these jobs. If you need 
more power, the Interna- / ' 
tional 6 or 10 horse power / >/ I 
sizes will supply plenty J // jffi

Paralysis 
I have some trouble with four R. I. 
Red pullets. The birds are about 10 
weeks old, belouging to a fioek of 100 
pullets I bought iti June. Those 100 pullets 
are in two bouses with very large yards, 
filled with green grass and apple and'other 
trees, and they are growing in tine shape, 
but four of the pullets lost rhe use of 
their legs. They cannot stand on their 
feet; they sprawl on the ground like a 
frog, with legs stretched out full length. 
I took them away from the flock and have 
them separate. They have been in this 
eondition about a week, and do not seem 
to get any better. What is the trouble? 
East Douglas, Mass. c. e. k. 
So far as I know, no one has discov¬ 
ered the cause of this trouble, which man¬ 
ifests itself by paralysis of the legs, fol¬ 
lowed. in many eases, by death after a 
few days. The disease attacks growing 
cockerels and pullets, and sometimes a 
flock of olil fowls. In not a few eases if 
has caused havoc in sonic poultr.vman’s 
flock. The trouble lias been ascribed to 
worms, to improper feeding and to var¬ 
ious other things, but I have never 
learned of any discovery leading to posi¬ 
tive knowledge of the character of the 
disease or of any remedy. Affected birds 
may be placed by themselves and given 
a worm remedy or a simple physio. In 
some cases they recover M. B. P.
