The fire was brushing between the ceiling and the roof and soon broke through after. being discovered, the flames making such head way that there was no hope of saving the building.

Hen Laid 24 Pounds of Eggs White Leghorn pullet owned by George Weathers chicken farmer of Orangeburg .County, South Carolina, has laid twenty- four pounds of eggs during the past ten months. This hen was entered by Mr. Weathers in the National Egg Laying Contest now being conducted a: McCormiek, South Carolina, and weighed, when entered, slightly over three and a half pounds. She has probably developed into a four pound hen and consequently has laid six times her weight in eggs in l?ss than one year. Such production as this makes the egg business a profitable one and proper selection and breeding go a long way to growing out hens to make such records.?Orangeburg Times Democrat.
