A Friend.
(Selected. }


A friend is a person who is "for
YOU always, under any circumstan-
ces. He likes you just as you are.
He does not want to alter you.
There are many faithful wives and
husbands; there r few faithful
friends.
Friendship is the most admirable,
amazing and rare article among hu-
man beings.
Anybody a stand by you when
you r right; a friend stands by you
even when you are wrong.
Like the shade of a great tree in
the monday heat, is a friend.
Like the home port, with your
country's flag flying, after long jour-
neys, is a friend.
A friend is an impregnable citadel
of refuge in the strife of existence.
1t is he who keeps alive your faith
in human nature, that makes you be-
lieve in a good universe.
He is the antidote for despair, the
elixir of hope, the tonic for depres-
sion.
You give to him without. relue-
lance and borrow from him without
embarrassment.
If you live fifty years and find one
absolute friend, you are fortunate.

TO MAKE
BABY CHICKS GROW
Poultry Husbandman of Clemson
College Gives Proper Methods of
Feeding Young Fowls.
IGla~nnn Gnllnnn MnnllrN

Clemson College, May. Do not
stunt the growth of the young poul-
try stock by u~nderfeeding, is the ad-
vice given by F. c. Hare, poultry
husbandman of Clemson College,
who says it is important for farm
ers to feed baby chicks well and to
continue feeding the pullets well
throughout the summer, in order to
have them in condition for fall and
winter laying, which is most profit
able. Prof. Hare gives all necessary
feeding information in the following
article:
One of the best foods for baby
chicks when they need nourishment
at "a to 80 hours old is a mixture
of two hard-boiled eggs cut up fine,
two broken crackers and a small
handful of oatmeal. Roll with the
hand, mix thoroughly and scatter a
little on a clean cardboard.
Do not throw the first food in lit
ter, because it is necessary first to
teach the baby chicks what to eat.
Otherwise they will eat any small
substance. This applies to feeding
a mixture of small grains as well.
Feed the egg mixture six times
the first day and four times daily
thereafter. Place before the chicks
a shallow box containing equal parts
of wheat bran and oatmeal. This
box must be kept filled for at least
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1915-05-26

two weeks, allowing the chicks to
eat all the bran oatmeal mash they
desire.
On the second day, commence
scattering small grains and seeds in
one-inch litter Goat straw, shredded
or cut fodder, broken pine straw or
cut alfalfa) to make the chicks exer-
else. The following is an excellent
mixture of scratching grains for ba-
by chicks: Equal parts cracked
wheat, cracked rice, cracked corn
and millet seed, added to lend vaEie-
ty to the food. The object of feed
ing small grain is to make the chicks
scratch, work and thereby keep
healthy, dry mash is to supply the
best growing foods and the more
mash the chicks eat the faster they
will grow, provided m keeps them
exercising by scratching for grain
and running over a good range.
The dry mash can be changed at
the end of two weeks to this cheap
err mixture: wheat bran, 5 pounds;
wheat middlings, 5 pounds; cornmeal
4 pounds; oatmeal, 4 pounds; cotton
seed meal, 2 pounds; total, 20
pounds. The c]ottonseed meal
must be good feeding meal. Keep
this mixture dry before the chicks
constantly.
Buttermilk and sour skimmilk are
palatable and nutritious foods for
baby chicks or mature fowls. Give
them all they will drink and mix up
once daily a moist mash of the dry
mixture and the sour milk product.
The grain mixture may be chang
ed to whole wheat, cracked corn,
cane seed and other larger grains as
the chicks increase in size. Feed
the grain morning and evening in
litter and the dry mash in a hopper.
The only satisfactory way to sup
ply green feed and green range is to
pillow up the ground, drop a small
piece of Bermuda grass sod every
Is inches, turn the next furrow
! over the chunks of sod, and continue
until the range is sodded. This one
application will produce a Bermuda
, sod within a year, provided the soil
is in a good state of fertility.
I To solve the green feed problem
completely, one has simply to har-
row the Bermuda sod in September
and scatter over it II pounds per
acre of burr clover seed in the burr.
This will afford the fowls a green
winter range and will eliminate for
all time the necessity of sowing or
sprouting oats OF planting rape,
turnips or other vegetable foods.
All citizens of the state are invit-
ed to consult Prof. Hare about their
poultry problems.

Representing nothing on Gods earth
now,
And naught in the waters below it,
AS the pledge of a nation that's
dead and gone,
Keep it, dear friend, and show it.
Show it to those who will lend an ear
To the tale that this trifie car tell,
Of a liberty born of the patriots
dream,
Of a storm-cradled nation that fell.
Too poor to possess the precious ores
And too much of a stranger to
borrow,
We issued today our promise to pay
And hoped to redeem on the NOR
row.
The days rolled by and the weeks
became years,
But our Golfers were empty still;
Coin was so rare that the treasured
quake
If a dollar should drop in the till.
But the faith that was in US wa
strong indeed,
And our poverty we'll we disccrned
And this little check represented
the pay
That our suffering veterans earn
ed.
We knew it had hardly q value in
gold,
Yet as gold each sciiier received
it.
1t gazed in our eyes with & promise
And each Southern patriot be!iev-
ed it.
But our boys thought little of price
or of pay,
Or of bills that were overdue;
We knew if it bought US our bread
today
Twas the best our poor country
could do.
Keep it, it tells all our history DER
From the birth of the dream to
its last;
Modest and born of the angel Hope,
Like our hope of success, it passed.
