Two of the big craft = the gravel irelghier Andaste and the car erry Milwaukee -- were sunk with. out & trace during north-eastern blasts which swept up huge seas and caused millions of damage to shore: line property aa well as to shipping, The steamer Wisconsin went down with sixteen of its crew on Tuesday in another bad blow and the freight or Senator Was rammed in a fog on Thursday and sank in a few minutes, Several weeks of shipping rem on the lakes before the seasoh 1 closed and seamen are wondering if ole disasters are in store, any of the ships which ply the lakes, yhcularly the passenger ships are oH There ia talk showing the recent disasters, of the need for more righd inapeets n of craft, The coffsin was 48 years old, the moat ancient of the big lake pas- songer ship.

whieh, | With the opening of the third com: petition In Ootober, gives New Jer BLAEw | gey the distinetion of having more Le fege-laying contest pons within her horders than has any other state, These competitions, whieh' many poultrymen consider an Indispens- able part of thelr poultry breeding and improvement programs, are lo onted at Vineland, Paterson and Flemington, At Vineland and Pat. arson each contest houses 100 flooks of 16 birds each, while at Flemington the capacity is B60 flocks In each of the three contests, the competing entries are housed, fed and cared for under a uniform plan

the competition will he the result of the fowl's in herent ability to produce eggs, Trapnests, devices which make it possible to determine accurately the number of eggs laid by each bird, are installed in the contest pens, / Although Yirds entered by easts ern breeders predominate In the Hut, there ave flocks from es far west as Washington, as far south as the Carolinas and as fay morth an Canada, According to Prof, Willard ©, Thompson, poultry hushandmen for the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment station, the slate's egg- laying contests are not operated merely as races or competitions, but rather as Institutions which di- rect and gulde poultry breeders in the development of more efficient flocks, "Most poultry keepers and egg farmers," Thompson says, "realize that the most important factor In obtaining economical and profit able egg production is the Inherent capaelty of the laying birds to pro- duce eggs efMclently, This means that as & result of selection and careful mating, each season should wee an Increase In the flocks' ave arnge egg production, "Poultrymen have long since learned that egg-laying contests, all of which supply ofMelal records of egg production and egg walght on the birds entered, are furnish- ing data needed for a systematle and sclentifie plan for poultry breeding, Out Vor Large Fgge "Continuing the practice Inaug~ urated last year, the management of the New Jersey contests Is weigh ing al legen laid hy the competing fowls, This procedure Identifies birds which lay the large, firsts grade eggs, as well as the birds which lay small and 'pewee' EEN, With this information available, the poultryman ean reduces the number of small eggs produced on his farm by breeding consistently from only those birds which lay egps weolghing 24 or more ounces to the dogen,'" The Vineland contest, located in the heart of the famous Vineland poultry distriet, 1s the oldest in New Jersey, It was started In 10160, one of this country's earlier egg-laying trials, and itg 14th year was started on Oct, 1, The Passale county contest at Paterson, which has taken the place of the former Hergen county egg-laying contest, Is In its second year, 'The Hunterdon county eon= test at Flemington, whieh was bullt with funds raised hy popular sub soription, is new this year, Asslsting Prof, Thompson in the mansgement of these three

popular at the White House even though the arbiters of fashion have decreed that it Is passe for all except the most informal of occasions, President Hoover, whose distaste for formal dress of any Kind is well known to his friends, makes a concession when there is a very state occasion such as a dinner for a Prime Minister or an ambassador, Otherwise he appears for dinner in a tuxedo, And those who ard Invited to the White House for the rather large dinner gatherings of which the Pre. sident and Mrs, Hoover are no fond, are told beforehand that the "black tie" and the short coat are the
