In answer to many questions about this egg- 
laying contest, the following facts are given: 
It is field at Storrs post office in connection 
with the Connecticut Agricultural College. The

lets in each pen. All the birds receive uniform

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 firBt of last November. The contest 
will end November 1, at which time these birds 
will he removed, and another set of pullets en¬ 
tered for the next year.

Egg-eating Hens 
Having soon several inquiries in The 
R. X.-Y. about liens eating their eggs. I 
will tell you my cure ; Just put a little 
vinegar in their drinking water, about 
one-half pint to five quarts. Of course 
that will not help unless they have plenty 
of shell and grit, but with a balanced 
ration I have never known it to fail. 
I. T. 
Mixing vinegar with a wet mash has 
also been practiced by some poultrymen 
for the same purpose. I do not know 
how effective this measure is, but it is 
simple and easily tried. M. B, D.
