Proper Care for Chicks
Hatch / in Incubators

Chickens hatched in ncubators are
apt to have. bowel trouble because they
are more subject to cold air-for we
just will open the door of the machine
to see how the catching is coming on or
10 show the baby how many chicks there
are out of the shells. then when we
take them to the brooder we are not
careful to protect them from the cold
air, says Mrs. Kate NJ. Wells poultry
specialist, Division of Extension. Re.
member that the temperature of the in
cubator is 100 degrees and even the
room temperature is too chilly for the
chicks at this e, fly Estate Of their ex-
istence. They should be left in the in
cubator and its brood chamber for at
least 48 hours after the last one hatches,
Then If carefully removed to warm
orooder and fed correctly the first few
weeks there will be little loss from
bowel trouble,
Toe picking is especially bad among
incubator hatched chicks and is some
INES due to over crowding in the
brooder but more often to mal-nutr-
tion. Their food lacks some elemen.
that their body needs; il may be green
food or animal protein The use of
sour milk from the first feeding will
generally prevent this trouble. They
need the vitamins in the mi k for their
proper growth and should be given as
much of this food as possible.
Green food must be furnished.
Brooder chicks enjoy pulling to pieces
fods of grasses or dandelions.
II other animal protein food is scarce
give brooder chicks fresh pork liver fed
row. Cut it into small pieces and give
them all they will eat,
1t is one job TO obtain a got hatch
and another task TO save the baby
hicks after they have been taken flom |
he incubator. Only proper brooding |
olus good feeding will start the
1aby chicks on the road to maturity.

Tennessee Farmers Now
Growing More Corn on
Same Acreage as Result
of Experiments

Hundreds of Tennessee farmers are
now growing more corn on the same
number of acres than they did few
years ago due to the discovery made by
be Expt riment Station of the Univer-
sity of Tennessee, These discoveries
include the determining of the variety
OF corn best suited to Tennessee soils
and conditions, methods of cultivation
and fertilization. After experiments
which were conducted over period of
ten years with all the prominent varie-
ties which we're subject to like condi.
tions as to soil and cultivation, it was
found that Meals Psymaster was best
adapted for general use and most pro-
ductive under Tennessee conditions, it
leading in production in all field tests
This variety was accordingly recon-
mended to the Division of Extension of
the University, which in turn, thru its
county agents, advised farmers thruout
the State, Today it is the leading
variety in Tennessee and its use is in
cressing annually. An increase of one
bushel per acre means 8, 900, 600 bushels
more for the State as whole and an
annual increase of nesrly that many
dollars.
The government crop report indicates
that the average yield of corn in Ten
nessee was 23 bushels per acre in 1919.
while in 1920 the average per acre was
2S bushels. The average yield ger acre
of corn under the instruction of county
agricultural agents in 1920 was 46.9
bushels on 5, 702 acres which wes 1879
bushels over ordinary methods, giving
farmers a profit of SIC, 5S7.s4. This
increased yield was not due to luck,
but was the result of wise methods of
fertilizing, cultivation and the use of
good improved varieties of sesd corn.

there was no railroad south OF Jack

the rivers and great rivalry among
them. In those early days. with her
husband. she used to visit Sanford

leading hotel there and also Palatka

eel was considered one of the finest
aotels in the state. While she has al
1ther times been in, the Triple Cities.
his is the first time that she has been

Mrs Chapman is the daughter OF
The late A. n. Benton. who was one
of the pioneer settlers OF Port Ale

Mr.. Benton was known throughout
the states a successful and benero-
.ent business man. The Benton home

been one OF the show places of that
beautiful mountain town. After her
marriage Mrs. Chapman made fire.
