SOUTHERN PACIFIC SATISFIED Tells Oregonians Tentative Outline of Settlement Is Pleasing. RLAMATH FALLS. Ore, January 16.—The Southern Pacific Company is satisfied with the disposition made of the Central erty in a purported tentative finding of the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion, local business interests, according to a telegram ed ' today from Julius Krutchnitt, chairman of the Southern Pacific executive board. Mr. Krutchnitt telegraphed “The Southern Pacific i with the condition to as tentative findings of the Inter- state Commerce in connection therewith it acquires by lease the Central Pacific until 1984 and ownership of issued and out- standing stock LYNCHERS ARE THWARTED BALTIMOR Chelton, a thiry-year-old negro, was brought to the Baltimore jail yester- January Southern | Pacific railroad prop- | which was referred to him by | 16.—George | day by the sheriff of Somerset coun- ¢ to_escape a threatened lynching for alleged assault upon a fou 3(»dr’L-lr| white girl near .

EGG-LAYING PULLET OF WORLD Virginia can add another leaf to her crown of laurels, for she is now the home of “the champion egg-laying pullet of the world. This is no idle boast of an overproud owner, either, for this fowl was officlally announced the champion egg producer at the Delaware Agricultural College, in Mil- ford, Del, November 1, 1921, under the auspices of the Philadelphia North American contest. This admirable chicken is Lady Egg-a-Day, who proved a right to her name by producing 343 eggs in 365 days. She is a buff orpington, and belongs to Capt. I. Brooks Clarke, who has a farm of seventeen acre known as Egg-a-Day Farm, at Vie na. Va, Lady Egg-a-Day was bred ntifically by Capt. Clarke, who established his first farm of this name in 1910, and recently moved South. Previously he had a farm of thirty- five acres in Meriden, Conn. Lady Egg-a-Day's record wis not touched during the past vear. =Although. Capt. Clarke was offered $4,000 for her the day she made the official record, and has since then received many other offers, he would not consider for a moment selling this valuable bird. He has never sold a single chicken of hersmor a single one of her ample supply of eggs. ‘Daughter” Also a Favorite. Now, Capt. Clarke is particularly proud of Lady Egg-a-Day's debutante daughter, who made her formal debut November 1, 1922, when she was en- tered in a similar contest. Already she promises to fulfill, if not exceed, her mother's record. ' She has laid fifty-one eggs in sixty-three days. For three of the past nine weeks she has laid seven eggs a week and laid x a week the other three weel ADVERTISEMENT. This pullet is as vyet nameless, be- cause Capt. Clarke has not found & name he liked well enough for such a talented chicken. She gets her ability not only from her mother, but also inherits a generous portion of it from her father's mother, & 262-e€g hen. Even farther back in the pedi- gree of this Yullfl s distinguished father’s family is a 279-egg hen. Heredity a Factor, Is Claim. People can say what they will, heredity is something that myst be taken 'into consideration. Not until October 31, 1923, will this young pul- let receive official recognition of her great ability along this line, but as she is leading at present with a large margin over all other birds entered in the contest, it is probable she will add to the laurels of her noble fam- ily. Capt. Clarke makes a specialty of breeding fine fowls and Airedale dogs. He_ has 750 chickens bred for show and laying purposes on his farm at present and expects to have 1,000 next fall. He has had prize birds in shows in Madison Square, New York; Bos- ton, Washington, Baltimore and Hagerstown, Md. e ittt LEGISLATOR GETS NEW POST. RALEIGH, N. C, January 16.—W. N.
