THE EGG-LAYING CONTEST. 
N otwithstanding the fact that 
the broody season is now in full 
swing, the loss in egg production 
for the twenty-ninth week is only 31 from 
the high record of 3,649 last week. The 
White Leghorns from England and from 
Ohio, tie’ for first place with the high 
score of 61. The single pen of Buff 
Leghorns from Wolverine Poultry Yards 
take second place with a score of 59, and 
Braeside Poultry Farm’s White Leghorns 
are third with a record of 58. Francis 
F. Lincoln’s White Leghorns tie with 
Geo. A. Cosgrove’s pen of same breed for 
fourth place, each pen laying 57; 27 pens 
in all laid from 50 to 56 each, including 
H. W. Collingwood’s pen of scrubs—as 
he calls them—which laid 54, making a 
higher score than any of the Rhode Isl¬ 
and Reds. Ruff Wyandottes, White 
Wyandottes, Buff Rocks, and 10 other 
varieties. In fact there was 64 pens out 
of the 82 in the contest, that laid fewer 
eggs than Mr. Collingwood’s “scrubs.” 
It begins to look as if those who laughed 
at these “scrubs’” at the beginning of the 
contest were somewhat premature in 
their mirth. Below is the week’s record
