POULTRY

Poultry experts seem to think there
is no remedy for cholera that gives
results worth the trouble Of admins
tering it. There are remedies which
effect cure when everything is done
to eradicate the disease in the way OF
sanitation, but the question comes, is
it worth the trouble? An eastern ex
pert argues that it is not; but he also
argues that preventive measures do
pay, and urges adding one dram of
permanganate OF potash TO each gallon
of drinking water OF all mature birds
during the periods of liability TO chol-
era, claiming that this simple and mex
pensve plan will prevent cholera in
lection.

1t is good business to preserve eggs
during the time of plenty and low
prices for use and sale during the
time of year when eggs are scarce
and prices are soaring. That is what
the cold storage companies do and
they make good profits by the prac-
tice. If each of the farmers in the
United States who keep hens would
preserve one case Of eggs during the
season of plenty, it would about equal
the number of eggs placed in cold
storage. Such action would not only
mean better prices to the farmers
when those eggs were sold, but the
taking of 100000 cases of eggs off
the market in the spring and summer
would keep the price received for eggs
from going so low at that time

Raleigh. Dec. 14.--Accompanied

= No Danger to the Church

To the Editor of The Journal
1t seems from your editorial ir
Tuesdays Journal on the question OF
"church members in jail" that some.
body is mad because the secretary Of
the state social service conference has
stated that fifty ner cent of the pris.
oners interviewed claimed to be
church members.
agree with you that there is moth.
ing in that statement for any one to
take offense at. Of course there are
various reasons for getting in Jail
and men who are incarcerated are u.s.
lally looked upon as being very bat
characters. Sometimes they are such
and sometimes they are less deserving
Of this punishment than are the mer
on the outside who inflicted it upon
them.
Your suggestion that there are a
great many church members who are
not in Jail, "but would be if they had
their DESERTS" is explanatory of why
the percentage was not greater.
But, come to think about it, what is
there to kick about anyhow? What
effect would a member getting in jail
have on an institution whose founder
declared that "the gates of hell could
not prevail against?"
Come to think further, didn't the
founder of the Christian religion get
executed himself? and didn't most OF
the early teachers of Christianity get
in Jail, get whipped and otherwise
abused, great many Of them pass
ing out of life through flames and
by way of the gallows?
This little instance, if | rightly in
terpret the purpose of your editorial
brings to mind a sketch Of Lotion,
in his book, Character Sketches,
which was very popular some years
ago. One of his characters was a lit
tie preacher standing braced against
the "Rock of Ages" visibly exerting
himself in an effort to prevent huge
6rred infdel, who was using a crow.
Tar on the opposite side Of the rock
from turning it over. =
The man who is afraid that an in.
fidel can overturn the "Rock of Ages
or that member who gets in Jail will
cripple the church, has a very poor
conception of what the church is. HI

Convention Goes to Gastonia

Monroe did not get the next ses-
sion of the Baptist State Convention,
but the body will be nearby, going
to Gastonia. 1t will therefore be in
easy reach Of Union County Baptists.
A press report says chat the selection
of a meeting place carried a sensa-
ton yesterday afternoon.
1t was the hour of adjournment,
the sun was setting, many delegates
were gone for their suppers, when
the cimmittee reported Gastonia as
the meeting place in 1923. Immedi-
ately Rev. w. l.. Griggs, pastor at
North Wilkesboro. offered a substi-
tute. and in support of his proposition
made forceful and really masterful
appeal. and he made an impression.
He captured the convention. and II
II had not been for the fact that the
next convention should go to the
east, the earnest. eloquent preacher
from the mountain town would have
overturned the committee, and even
then Gastonia won by only six votes.
