EGG-LAYING CONTEST 
In answer to many questions about this egg- 
laying contest, the following facts are given: 
It is held nt 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 houses 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.

Lame Chicks 
I have several White Leghorn chicks 
in my Mock that have something the mat¬ 
ter with their feet. They are about two 
weeks old. I noticed nothing wrong with 
them when hatched, but the first I noticed 
the ends of their toes curled around back¬ 
ward. C. E. w. 
New York. 
If those chicks are confined to board 
Moors this trouble may bo thus accounted 
for. Get them out upon the ground as 
early after hatching as possible. Confine¬ 
ment to heated brooders and upon floors 
induces log weakness, showing itself by 
progressive inability to walk or run, and 
ultimately, in many cases, ending in 
death. Even though but a small run can 
be given, the chicks should be permitted 
to get their feet upon the ground at the 
earliest moment practicable. >i. B. n.

Kill the Mite Pest 
M' 
fites are not lice. Lice live chiefly on the 
fowl — and can be killed by dusting the 
hens with any reliable lice powder But 
mites are not lice—they live in the cracks 
and crevices. At night and at other times when the 
fowls are on the roost, the mites swarm out, and after 
sucking the blood of the poultry, return to their 
biding places And, it is there you must kill them. 
Now is the time to get ride of mites. * Clean the houses thor¬ 
oughly—then spray with Malox, driving it into every crack and 
crevice® Malox contains no coal tar; it dries quickly and is 
practically odorless when dry It is easy to use—just mix with 
water One application lasts for several months 
Hens can’t scratch mites and lay eggs at the same time. 
Back up 3iddy with MALOX and get more eggs. Write 
today for name of nearest dealer, and we will also send you 
our large illustrated book “PROTOX for Poultry.” It is 
worth having.
