MARKETING THE FARM EGGS.

The families of the cities want
strictly fresh eggs. They are tired
of storage eggs and eggs sold them
for strictly, fresh country eggs which
are not (the writer having lived in
the city more than 20 years speaks
from experience). and they are will
ing to pay the highest prices for them.
Will you deliver to them this first
class product? Now with the parcel
post it is within your power to come
in direct touch with the city consum-
er. How are you going to reach
them?
Most farmers look upon eggs as a
b~y-product of the farm. and in many
instances the hens are compelled to
forage for themselves and are not
provided with proper shelter, feeding
are q
When the hens forage for a living
and go without care it may be true
that the money their products bring
in is clear gain, but on the other hand
il they were properly cared for, Wa
tered, fed and housed they could Oe
made one of the most profitable bust
nesses of the farm. They should Re
placed on the basis they deserve.
The losses to the egg industry
which are avoidable is about II per
cent. and includes rotten. stale, held
dirty, heated and cracked eggs.
Don't keep broody hens around on
the nests used for laying hens. A
broody hen is not a profitable hen.
and if she is not profitable for sitting
and brooding purposes break her up
at once-don't put off from day to
day until finally she gets discouraged
and gives it up herself. If she is
broken up from sitting she should re-
turn to laying in about 10 days. Don't
keep mongrels or pullets that don't
reach maturity by early winter. Keep
clean nesting material in the nests. as
settled eggs don't present a pleasing
to the city buyer. Pro-
vide special rooms for the sitting hens
and keep the roo closed so they will
nor be molested. Collect the eggs
twice daily in hot weather. Store eggs
i'll a clean, dry, cool room and mar
them twice a week. Sell your
eggs in attractive packages and sell
on a cash basis. delivering only clean.
fresh and large eggs. The eggs
should weigh at least "a ounces to the

PROPOSE TO MAKE PARKS
OF ROADS THROUGH SANDHILLS

Southern Pines, Feb. St IS q
lonesome day when the Sandhills folks
are not Matching up some new scheme.
Inc proposition now receiving favor Is
70 make the country roads a success
sion OF parks. and to bring about that
emo the landowners are to be asked
10 contribute a strip rs feet from the
the center of the road on all lands
That lie on the main thoroughfares.
1nls Will be asked on both sides of
the road. the purpose being to have a
landscape architect lay off park;
reaching for miles at a stretch, and to
nave the parks planted with suitable
trees and shrubbery, with larger
parks at intervals, with rest rooms,
shelters, or whatever may fit in the
scheme.
Where natural bits of scenery are
available along the road, such spine
groves, brooksides, fords, or other
features that are attractive or capa-
De of being made attractive, donations
o. such bits of property in small
pieces will be Encouraged. The desire
is to make the Sandhill roads interest
ing from mi end to the other and to
beautify the homes and farm salong
all h main line of public travel.
Already five or six miles of the road
between Pinehurts and West End is
set to trees and plans adopted for
making a permanent stretch of park
in that distance. Landowners have
volunteered the gift of many more
miles of frontage and it is assumed
that nearly all of the roads in the en-
tire Sandhill belt will come into line
with the gift of the narrow strip of
land sought.
In line with this project a new road
has been planned from .Pinehurst to
Southern Pines which will pick a pic
turesque route. provide for a road 80
feet wide, and traverse the territory
from the country club at Pinehurst
over the summit of the h~ighkrange Of
hills near Southern Pines, and past
the country club grounds to the High
land Pines Inn. From the tob of the
range a picture of the entire country
can be seen, and-another fine view is
gained at the Inn summit. This road
will be a model Of rural charm.
If the counties to the westward
will take Ut the same idea and bring
the roa to the Yadkin, it will be one
OF the famous roads of the South.
Eastward the plan is to include the
~hattIefelds of Hoke County, and the
miniature mountains Of the vicinity,
as well as other historical spots of the
sandhills country.

Real Cause Of Rejoicing.

The reason you laugh when you see
your enemy sit down on a freshly

you don't love him. but because you
rejoice in the circumstance that the
