MAJOR COHEN GETS
HONORARY DEGREE


LEXINGTON, Va, June 1t
Commencement exercises at Wash
;ngton and Lee University today
we're marked by the awarding Of
an honorary LII. d. degree to Maj.
John S. Cohen, president and edi-
tor of The Atlanta Journal, who
has taken a prominent part in he
movement to re-establish the Rob
srt E. Lee Memorial School of
journalism as a part of the instl-
tuition.
Major Cohen was notified sever
al weeks ago of the action of the
3oard of trustees in comforting the
degree upon him and appeared j
person today to receive it. The
university has custom which pro-
hibits the comforting Of degrees ull-
less those towhom they arc award
ed appear in person to receive
them.
General Lee established the first
school of journalism in America
when he came to Washington Col
lege shortly after the close of the
Civil war, but eight years after his
death, teh poverty of the institution
resulted in its discontinuanee, ac-
cording to officials.
At the suggestion of DIR. Henry
Louis Smith, president OF Washing
ton and Lee, the Southern News
paper Publishers Association in
1921 assumed management Of a
campaign to re-establish The school
of journalism. Major Cohen was
appointed chairman of the commit
tee to direct the enterprise. In
1928, he reported to the association
that $4,000 had been subscribed
by the editors toward the $4,000
expected from them before any
public appeal should be made. d..
Smith, upon the invitation Of the as
ISOLATION, delivered an address, at
Ihe conclusion of which $4,000
additional was pledged by the edi-
tors.
During the past winter a number
of cities have been canvassed and
the total subscription now reaches
$4,000, said DR.. Smith.

Too much emphasis cannot be
placed upon the absolute necessity
for early and systematic culling or
selection Of the better grade birds in
/ your flock.
The poultry man that culls and
| cY!,s viii see his chickens pay big
profit. Gull from chick to hen and
back again. The fewer culls you
feed-chicks, pullets, cockerels, lay
eys and breeders, The greater net
profit you can bank.
Culling is really selection Of the
most fit and there is always room for
selection of superiority in flocks OF
even high grade.
August the Time For Selection
II any month Of the poultry year
may be called the month of selec-
ton, late July and early August
would be the time best designated for
this task. The chicks are well
grown, the pullets and hens are slow
ing up on production and some OF
them are already on their mott.
Now Ia the time to select the hens
and yearlings, you decide to set aside
for the production Of next seasons
Matching eggs. They should be
marked with leg bands. Select the
cockerels you wish to keep for fer
Utilization of the Matching eggs.
1t is imperative that these breeders
have all the yard room or open range
you can possibly provide. Encourage
them to live in the open and If they
show a preference for roosting in
trees allow them to do 30.
1t must be remembered they are
I not in training for a record in egg
production, but to approach the sea-
son for Matching eggs with abound
ing vigor and the best of health.
: Delay to be Avoided
With such birds to I'll your incu-
bator you will have little need to
fear so many dead in shell" chicks.
Do not wait until few weeks be-
fore Matching time to segregate the
birds whose eggs you wish to use or
sell for Matching. Segregation of the
eggs also should now be made--those
for market and those for Matching.
In making your selection of breed
Ing stock SO early as August, it Is
essential that you set aside a larger
number than you will actually need
in February, for no matter how care
full and intelligent your choice may
be you will find that many of the
individuals are unworthy to be
mothers.
August is the time to select the
yearling hens and early Matched
pullets to populate your laying
houses The more careful your Sc

National Guard Growing
at Rate of I 800 a Month

At the present time the National
Guard has an aggregate strength Of
10000 men, which is increasing at
the rate of 1900 month. In the win.
ter months the increase is slow, hut
just prior to the training season this
Increase is greatly augmented. BY
June 30. 1924. the bureau expects 1S1.-
900 men to be enrolled in the guard,
and by June 80. 1925. 1t is expected the
National Guard will number 100000
men. and In 1925 average 10000.
Astudy reveals the fact that the 1925
estimate Of $30.577.94O. which Is al
lowed by the budget bureau, is not suf-
hcent to provide for the training and
activities Of these 10000 men during
the fiscal year Of 1925. Although only

States Seek Data on
Amount of Game Killed

Minnesota and New York were pio-
neer states In inaugurating systems to
ascertain the amount OF game killed
each year. Today score or more Of
the state game departments are striv-
ing to collect this important data. The
compilation Of such data gives very
good idea Of game conditions in the
different states. BY reading the tabu-
lated results from the census OF game
killed you can also arrive at pretty
accurate conclusion us to the efficiency
Of the game departments Of these
states in years gone by.
From Denver dispatch we learn
that It Is estimated that 600 deer were
killed in Colorado last year. In the
same paper comes report from New
Jersey that $50 Virginia deer were
killed in that state the past season.
