THE EGG-LAYING CONTEST. 
The eighteenth week of the contest 
shows the remarkable gain of 615 eggs 
over the previous week ; 19 pens laid 40 
eggs or more during the week. Frederick 
II. Benton’s pen of White P. Rocks made 
the highest score, 4S; and the Dunghills, 
Daniel I line’s pen, came second with a 
score of 46. Tom Barron’s White Leg¬ 
horns laid 45; they tie with Glenview 
Poultry Farm, their White Leghorns also 
laying 45. Harry B. Cook’s 8. C. Reds 
laid 44. Tom Barron’s White Wyan¬ 
dottes laid 43, and one of Storr’s Agricul¬ 
tural Station’s pens of White P. Rocks 
also laid 43. Barron’s White Wyan¬ 
dottes are 127 eggs ahead of the next best 
pen. The total number of eggs laid this 
week was 2,657. In this extremely cold 
month of February, with deep snows and 
blustering blizzards, 7,860 eggs were laid. 
The pen producing the largest number 
was Dr. J. A. Fritchey’s S. C. Rods. 
They laid 161 eggs, Tom Barron’s White 
Wyandottes being a close second, with 
159. Below is given the record of the 
leading pens for the eighteenth week, and

Mr Barron writes me that his surplus 
stock of White Leghorns are all sold. 
He can take no more orders for Leghorns 
until next Fall, lit" has over 1,000 chicks 
hatched out now, February 1. Many 
readers of The R. N.-Y. write me to know 
if eggs can be safely imported from Eng¬ 
land—that is, eggs for hatching. In reply 
I would say that it depends almost wholly 
on the weather encountered coming over. 
If it is a smooth passage they will hatch 
very well; if it is rough, there is liable 
to he a poor hatch. geo. a. cosgrove. 
A Recent 
U. S. Government Report 
Makes plain your need of a 
TMITED 
CREAM SEPARATOR 
The skimming device of which is GUARANTEED 
NEVER TO RUST. 
The scientific staff of the dairy division in the United States Depart¬ 
ment of Agriculture recently conducted a series of experiments to learn what 
effect,if any, iron (rust) has on cream and butter. 
The tests definitely established the fact that 
even minute particles of iron (rust) caused 
certain undesirable flavors and that in every 
instance when butter was scored a few days 
after the making, the samples in which 
iron (rust) was present scored lower than 
the butter made from cream which con¬ 
tained no iron (rust). 
In using the United States Cream Separator 
with non-rusting skimming sections of nickel 
silver you avoid all risk of having “metallic” 
butt t. The U. S. sections are positively 
guaranteed never to rust. No other sep¬ 
arator manufacturer gives you a printed non- 
rusting guarantee. 
Yet, United States Cream Separators with 
this big exclusive improvement are sold at no higher prices than other 
separators without it. 
It is time well spent to learn from your U. S. dealer or us more about the 
exclusive U. S. non-rusting feature.
