In answer to many questions about this egg- 
laying contest, the following facts are given: 
It is held at Storrs post office in connection 
with the Connecticut Agricultural College. The 
contest begins November 1. There are 10 pul¬ 
lets in each pen. All the birds receive uniform 
treatment. The bouses are all alike, and the 
feed is the same for all. The contest continues 
for one year. The weekly records cover the num¬ 
ber of eggs laid for each pen in the current 
week, and also the total number of eggs laid 
since the first of last November. The contest 
will end November 1. at which time these birds 
will be removed, and another set of pullets en¬ 
tered for the next year.

I Lave a yearling P>. P. Rock cock; un¬ 
til two weeks ago be was apparently in 
the best of condition. About this time I 
noticed him sitting around a good deal, 
but active enough when approached or 
scared. lie has gradually lost the use of 
bis legs, until now be cannot walk more 
than two or three feet without falling 
down. There is no swelling of the joints, 
and not much rise in temperature, but he 
seems to suffer some pain. House is light, 
dry aud well ventilated. The cock has 
been with 15 pullets, all of which are do¬ 
ing well and are in first-class condition. 
I feed 3 oz. of mixed scratch feed, 1 oz of 
dry mash, Alfalfa and sugar beets daily; 
some milk, and, if not milk, 1 oz. of fresh 
lean meat. Appetite is fair, but does not 
care to drink; excrement has been very 
green for some time. The bird cost $10; 
do you think it is worth while to bother 
with him? A. A. L.
