NORTH AMERICAN EGG-LAYING 
CONTEST WINNERS 
By trapnesting and careful breeding we have 
bred a strain of S. C. Reds that have no equal 
in size, shape, color or egg production. Our 
Reds are long, deep breasted and of a dark, rich 
cherry red color. 
Our Reds are proving their laying ability 
year after year in the egg laying contests. 
Our pen of S. C. Reds in the 1917-1918 N. A 
Egg Laying Contest laid 878 eggs. Our hen No. 
3 was the highest record S. C. Red hen in the 
contest, she laid 220 eggs and did not begin 
laying until the sixth week of the contest. 
Our S, 0. Reds lay fine, large brown eggs 
and we guarantee 85 per cent of the eggs fertile.

“The Favorite Hens” and Their Record 
On January 15 we went to the poultry 
contest at Westwood, N. ,T., and looked 
over the peu of “Favorite Ileus” enterec 
by 20 of our women readers. The pullets 
were all there, and apparently happy ant 
active. We were just in time to see the 
last eggs taken from the trap-nest. The 
attendants go around several times a day 
and keep very accurate account of all the 
eggs laid. These pullets are kept in 
their house all the time. They have 
water and dry mash constantly before 
them, where they may help themselves at 
all times. Hanging on the wall is t 
bucket containing mixed whole grain 
When the attendant took up the last 
eggs in the late afternoon he reached up 
and scooped out a quart of this grain and 
scattered it in the litter on the floor. 
The Red pullets went after it as though 
they meant business, and it was evident 
that a little of the whole grain suits 
them well in connection with the mash 
The birds are all active and strong, and 
several of them are exceptionally fine 
specimens. Only six of them have already 
started to lay. Several others look as 
though they were ready to start, but they 
have proved a little lazy thus far. They 
will come along later, and the majority 
of them are sure to make good record 
before the year is over. Thus far the 20 
pullets have laid 99 eggs in 77 days, and 
the following table will show the individ¬ 
ual record of each pullet. Olivia is prov¬ 
ing one of the best birds in the entire 
contest. She started laying the first week, 
and has kept up her record, giving thus 
far a little over 07 per cent of a perfect 
score. Rosewood is coming along, and 
from their appearance Green Mountain 
Girl and Lady Bountiful will soon be in 
full production. In the next report we 
hope that all of the pullets will be on 
record. No one can account for their 
delay in starting. They have been well 
cart'd for, and thus far are healthy and 
vigorous, but although most of them show 
indications of getting ready, they have 
been too busy with other matters thus 
far to patronize the trap-nest. They will 
eoine along, however, soon, and be on 
deck.

Albany, N. Y. e, S. w. 
It is true that March hatched chicks, 
it well fed and cared for through Ihe 
Summer, may mature so early that they 
will lay for a time iu the Fail, and then 
go into a molt. For that reason, among 
others, my own preference is for April 
and early May hatches, as these will per¬ 
mit of sufficiently early maturing to get 
Fall eggs, without great danger of Fall 
or early Winter molting. Unless hatch¬ 
ing for some special purpose, I 
should advise bringing out the chicks 
some time in April. This permits of using 
eggs of stronger fertility, with better 
hatching results, gives the pullets ample 
time to mature by Fall. m ‘h i> 
with the work-saving 
safety door-front 
The patented door of the Unadilla means the differ¬ 
ence between safety and danger, between hard work 
and light work in handling silage. 
Door opening is continuous—you shove out the silage instead 
of pitching overhead; and the door fasteners form a real safety 
ladder directly under the opening. 
The Unadilla is a tower of strength, a building of beauty, a saver 
of silage and work, an economy you need.
