Kluttz Cow Passes
Gains Access to Food Supply and Eat.
Too Much of 1t

Doctor Kluttz left wide open
the house where the food sup
ply was kept, the cow got in, and
now the COW is dead. At least,
that is the way the people who
live in the house tell the story.
This is alleged to be the second
Kluttz cow that has met her end
in the same fashion.
The illness was discovered at
about supper time a few days
ago. Either the extent of the
cows stolen feast was not
known, or else, if he did know,
Doctor Kluttz said nothing of
it, and so the family thought the
trouble was just a slight indis-
position.
But at 4 A. M. sounds OF dis
tress walked the Doctor. He
found the COW suffering and
straightway went to summon
DR.. S. A. Nathan, the municipal
health officer. Dr.Nathan, it
said, was not eager to rise at
that hour inasmuch as he is a
municipal officer and not a mis-
cellaneous practitioner. Then DIR.
Kluttz reused a drug clerk, got
some medicine, and administer
ed treatment of his own. The
cow died later in the day.

WAY POINTED TO
POULTRY PROFITS
Paul LlOyd's Son Puts Through
Paying Venture with
Chickens
WELL-FED PULLETS LAY

The work of building up a real
poultry industry around Chapel
Hill goes steadily forward, and a
few of the most enterprising
farmers have demonstrated that,
with the proper kind of feeding
and care, there is real money in
chickens.
Here is a case in point:
Dwight Ray and Ernest
Hearn, two young men of Carr
boro, bought $50 day-old chicks
February 8, four and a half
months ago. Twenty-seven of
them died, leaving 223.
Ivan Lloyd, son of Paul Lloyd,
bought these 223, when they
were six weeks old, for $125. Of
these, 106 were roosters and III
were pullets. Some of the roost-
ers were sold two weeks after
the purchase, and others three
weeks after. The entire 106
brought 500, making the, net
cost of the pullets, which young
Lloyd kept, equal to $35.
At the age of four months and
IL days the pullets laid six eggs,
and the output increased day by
day. This is an exceptionally
%early age for laying by chickens
of this breed, White Leghorns.
''The reason of it is good feed
ing" said r. P. Harris, agricul-
ture teacher in Chapel Hill
school, who is jubilant over this
as a demonstration. "There
couldn't be any better proof of
what poultry experts are always
preaching. When they hear of
this the farmers ought to be

Handicraft Taught

One of the innovations in
this years Summer School is
the free handicraft instruction
that goes on in the basement
OF Phillips Hall, morning and
afternoon. The materials used
are mostly paper and twine and
glue, and it is amazing what a
variety of articles can be made
OF them. The instruction is not
for students only-the people of
the town are also invited to
come, and there is no charge to
anybody.

cult, originally of thirty schools,
has grown a circuit of one hun
