Those Favorite Red Pullets 
The R. I. Red pullets in Pen 15 at the 
Bergen County, N. J.. egg-laying contest 
are still at work. It will be remembered 
that these pullets were contributed by 20 
women readers of Tiie R. N.-Y.. each 
making the best selection from her flock. 
The pullets are fed and eared' for so that 
all have exactly the same treatment. 
There can be no favoritism under such a 
system. While there have been deaths 
in a number of the pens, pullets have all 
been healthy and active. They vary 
greatly in appearance and weight. Some 
of them are fine specimens of the breed 1 , 
while others would not score high. Some 
are large and some are small. 
The first one to begin laying was 
“Olivia,’’ Xo. 4. This pullet started early, 
and has made a good record’, as we may 
see by the list printed' below. Several 
of these birds were sadly disappointing 
to their owners. They simply refused 
to start. Week after week they sang 
and scratched about iu perfect health— 
bright eyes and red combs—but they 
■would not start laying. Just what the 
trouble was no one can tell; it was’ just 
the perversity of a hen ! That is about 
all you can say. Most of them, after 
■once starting, kept on laying, although, 
Mrs. Fenton Gall, Owner of the Red 
Pullet Olivia 
as we see, several of them are drones 
beyond any question. Tt may be that 
the 01 eggs laid outside the nests are from 
Emma and Dutchess. “Olivia” went to 
the front early, hut now Green Mountain 
Girl, Red Wing and Lady Mercer are 
after her, and have a chance to overhaul 
her before November 1. We shall print 
this week a picture of Mrs. Fenton Gall, 
the owner of Olivia, and we hope to print 
pictures of the other women before the 
contest doses. The following figures 
carry the record up to the thirty-first 
week :
