In the twenty-fourth week of the 1aying contest at Storrs a Connecticut pen of Leghorns entered hy Georse Phillips of Seymour set a new high mark for weekly production in the present competition. Up to this time a Massachusetts pen of Rhode Island Reds held the weekly record with a yield of 58 eggs. The Connecticut pen has now set this aside and pushed the mark up to 59 egzs. Chas. H. Lane’s Rhode Island Reds from Southboro, Mass., were in second Position for the week with a vield of 57 eggs. Albert T. Lenzen's White Rocks from North Attleboro, Mass, and Deer Brook Poultry Farm’s ‘Rhode Island Reds from Short Falls, N. H., tied for third place with 54 eggs cach. A pen of Barred Rocks from Massachusetts, an- other from New York and a pen of Leghorns from New York all tied for fourth place with 53 esgs each. The total production for all pens was 4068, a yield of 58 per cent. Early in February the food .admin- istration issued an ord@r prohibiting the sale of liva or lately killed hens and pullets. This order known as Rule 14 threw a little scare into_the poultrymen of certain sections. This rule was to have been in force until the first of May: it is, however now rescinded nearly two weéks earlier than at first planned. This fact, how- ever, should not have any appreciable effect on the amount of native poul- try offereq for sale: the broilers are not yet ready and the hens and pul- lets are laying too many ezgs to think of selling them; furthermqre If every one rushed to unload the minute the rule is removed, such action would in itself tend to upset the market, The three best pens in each of the principai varieties are as follows: Pen.
