EGG-LAYING  CONTEST 
In  answer  to  many  questions  about  this  egg- 
laying  contest,  the  following  facts  are  given: 
It  Is  held  at  Storrs  Postoffice  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 
number  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 
entered  for  the  next  year.

Pullets  Roost  in  Trees 
I  have  275  pullets.  Our  coops  are  in 
the  apple  orchard.  I  have  lots  of  trouble 
with  them,  as  they  go  in  the  trees  nights, 
oo  far  I  have  chased  them  down  every 
night.  'Would  you  advise  as  what  to  do 
to  keep  them  from  roosting  in  the  trees? 
Is  it  advisable  to  clip  one  of  their  wings? 
Gowanda,  N.  Y.  mrs.  e.  f.  m. 
I  know  of  no  better  place  for  growing 
pullets  than  the  limbs  of  an  apple  tree  too 
tall  for  foxes,  skunks  and  other  night 
prowling  animals  to  climb.  If  real  nat¬ 
uralists  object  to  my  making  foxes  prowl 
at  night  and  skunks  climb  trees,  I  won’t 
insist  upon  that  point,  but  I  have  raised 
enough  pullets  in  apple  trees  to  know 
that  they  do  well  there  and  that  it  isn’t 
as  difficult  to  get  them  down  for  their 
Winter  quarters  in  the  Fall  as  it  might 
seem  to  be.  A  boy  or  active  man  and  a 
ladder  will  soon  clear  a  night-blooming 
White  Leghorn  apple  tree,  and,  until  it 
becomes  too  cold  to  leave  the  pullets 
there,  there  is  no  place  more  healthful. 
M.  B.  D. 
Mrs.  Neighbors  :  “But  isn’t  your  son 
rather  young  to  join  the  army?”  Mrs. 
Malaprop :  “Well,  he  is  very  young,  but 
then,  you  see,  he  is  only  goipg  to  join  the 
infantry.” — Houston  Post.

Help  your 
MOULTERS 
MOULT 
If  you  want  your  hens  to  moult 
naturally — 
If  you  want  them  bacit  on  the  egg 
job  promptly — fall  and  winter  laying — 
Then  you  must  make  sure  that  your 
moulters  are  healthy  and  hungry. 
They  must  eat  lots,  and  be  able  to 
digest  what  they  eat. 
That’s  just  what 
Dr.  Hess  Poultry 
PAN-A-CE-A 
does  for  your  moulting  flock. 
It’s  a  tonic  that  begins  with  the  appetite — 
improves  a  hen’s  whole  system. 
It  has  Iron  that  keeps  the  paleness  away, 
makes  the  combs  and  wattles  red — the  blood 
rich. 
Pan-a-ce-a  starts  the  food  the  egg  way  as 
soon  as  the  moult  is  over. 
No  time  lost. 
No  dormant  egg  organs  after  the  moult, 
where  Pan-a-ce-a  is  fed. 
Tell  your  dealer  how  many  nens  you  have. 
There’s  a  right-size  package  for  every  flock. 
100  hens,  the  12-lb.  pkg.  200  hens,  the  25-lb.  pail 
50  hens,  the  5-lb.  pkg.  500  hens,  the  100-lb.  drum 
For  fewer  hens,  there  is  a  smaller  package.
