EGG-LAYING CONTEST 
Vineland, N. J. 
The Vineland, N. J., egg-laying contest 
is now in its second year. The same hens 
which were reported last year are being 
tested for their two-year-old form. Below 
is given the record of the full pullet year, 
the record for the current week ending 
August 21, and the full record for this 
year. Do not confuse these records with 
the Connecticut figures, for that is a pul¬ 
let contest.

Suggestions in Henhonse Construction 
I saw a description of a brooding coop 
in a recent number which advised putting 
tlie bottom slats tw'O inches apart. I| 
would advise changing that to one inch; 
ai)art, so that the occasional eggs thatj 
were laid would not fall through and 
break. I note also in advice in building | 
laying-houses to have the sash hinged atj 
the bottom. Let me suggest driving two‘ 
nails slanting into the sill in place of 
hinges. The .sashes are perfectly held in 
l)lace and can be easily lifted out to washj 
or put in a new light of glass if one is 
broken. D. E. B.

mother,” rejoined the little miss, “if I

'You Can Fairly See’Em Grow 
Sucrene Hog Meal speeds up pork production far beyond any ordinary hog feed; 
eliminates all uncertainty about feeding hogs for healthy, vigorous, rapid growth and 
quick, high-grade finish; produces more and better pork per pound of feed, because: 
1— It is a complete, correctly balanced pork¬ 
making ration, composed entirely of standard 
quality feeding materials. 
2— It is so appetizing that hogs relish it keenly— 
eat more in excess of their daily maintenance 
needs, which means gaining weight rapidly. 
benefit of all they eat—no 25% waste as in 
feeding corn. 
4—It contains health promoting materials—Blood 
Flour and Molasses—which, besides having 
highest feeding value, possess strong correct¬ 
ive qualities for stomach and bowels, reduc¬ 
ing to a minimum the chances of set-backs 
and loss by disease. 
3—It is so easily digested that hogs get the full

When Feeding Sucrene Hog Meal 
You can not raise or buy higher grade feeding materials than are contained in Sucrene Hog 
Meal: Corn Germ Meal, Corn Feed Meal, Alfalfa Meal, Corn Distillers* Dried Grains and Solubles, 
Peanut Meal, Palm Kernel Meal. Old Process Linseed Meal, Blood Flour. Pure Cane Molasses and small 
percentages of Calcium Carbonate and salt. 
We guarantee every sack of Sucrene Hog Meal to analyze 
18^0 protein, 4^o fat, 46<fo carbohydrates and 14% fiber. 
Sucrene fed hogs are not just “lard hogs.** They have firm, solid flesh, lean and 
fat, with large, strong frames—bring highest market prices. Save all your corn this 
year. Sucrene Hog Meal brings you bigger, surer and quicker hog profits. Feed it 
dry or slopped—hogs enjoy it either way. Give your dealer a trial order. If he 
does not handle Sucrene write us his name and we will see that you are supplied.
