Some Record, This
Mr. L. Percy Heilig, of this place,
undoubtedly a genius when it
comes to prolific egg production.
Last year he had 9 White Rocks
that laid 1630 eggs, but during the
month of January, he has succeeded
in having his hens produce better
than any we have as yet heard of. *
Hhe has 6 White Leghorn pullets
that were six months old Jan. 29,
that laid 123 eggs in 31 days. Many
days during the month each hen laid
every day. The pullets are kept in a
Philo pen. We doubt whether this
record has ever been equaled for
this particular month of the year.
It has the great North American
egg laying contest beaten to a fraz-
zle. The leaders, white Leghorns,
five hens to a pen, laid 240 eggs in
three months.
We would be pleased to hear from
any person that can come near this
record.

The quartette from the Elizabeth-

| tions, which were well received.
| “The Farm and the Farmer's Boy.”
| Prof. H. K. Ober, of the Elizabetn-
town College, gave a talk on “The
Farm and the Farmer's Boy.”
believed the subject to be a wide
| one. The public is slowly awakening
{to the fact that man’s value is the
| greatest. He pictured what would
happen if all the farm buildings in
{the State were destroyed, but man
| remained. He compared the situa-
| tion with what would happen if man
| was destroyed. Prof. Ober made an
| earnest plea for the farm, when he
|said was the greatest institution in
existence. Farmers are just begin-
ning to learn about the farm. The
+ -8peaker believed*that the future had
| much in store. He said that the wo-
| men on the farm have done far more
{than the men. The speaker said
| that the women raise more to the
| square foot and take better care of
i the ground. Jomparison was made
between the farmers of to-day and
those of ten, twenty or thirty years
ago. Too many boys believe that
the farm is deceptive and farm life
is a drudgery. There is a too preva-
lent idea that there is a place to get
all for nothing. From the time man
was created it was God’s intention
that man should till the soil. Very
often persons are falsely looked upon
as marvels, when they simply have
preserved the talents provided by
nature through hard work. The
farmer who works and knows how
is to be looked upon with pride. The
speaker deplored the belief of many
persons that there is an ‘‘easy
street.” He said the only joy in life
is the love for work. Referring to
the farmer’s boy, Prof. Ober dwelt
on the lives of Washington and Lin-
coln. Both have left their heritage
because they were men who loved
the right and loved to work. Much
of their life was due to their child-
hood training. Today the farmer's
boys are running the nation while
the millionaire’s sons have spent
their talents. The education of to-
day demands a many-sided interest.
The man who interested in his
work is the greatest'one. The farm
affords the most profitable school for
the young of today. There are many
children who have never seen a pig-
eon, pig, ete., with interest. The boy
on the farm learns to do things for
himself. They in later life, make
zood use of these same things. Prof
Ober further made a plea for the
farmer’s girl. Too often the girl
must do a boy’s work. The speaker
compared the: difference between the
“tired” boy 4nd, the one who knows
the value of @w:dollar. The fact that
the farm boy has suffered puts him
into shape sympathize with his
fellow beings... Continning, - the
speaker asserted that too often the
parents of farm. children err great-
{ly by. trying to make. it easy for them
| These parents frequently sin ‘bv: do-
ling things which the children shpuld
| do. The fathers also, too often try
{td ‘make farm work easy for the
