REPORT FARM EGG RECORD
1O7 Poultry Farms in State In
cluded in August Report

The egg production records of
27,961 birds, representing 107
poultry farms in the sttae, are in
cluded in the August report of the
Delaware farm egg record club
which was prepared by H. SPAIN
er, extension poultryman of the
University Of Delaware, under
whose direction this project has
been conducted in this state for
the past six years in cooperation
with the county agents and those
poultry raisers who have been in
terested in keeping accurate rec
ords Of the production of their
fiocks. Copies of this report were
mailed recently from the Office of
county agent Russell E. Wilson to
the eighty-one poultrymen in Kent
county who requested calendars
last fall on which to keep their
egg production records for the
past year, and those poultrymen
who desire these calendars again
this coming year beginning No
Vember ! are advised to send in
their requests at once to the coun-
ty extension office. These calen-
dars are free to those poultry rails
ers in Delaware who will agree to
send ia their egg reports at the
end of each month stating the
number Of layers On hand and the
number of birds that have died or
been sold during the month. On
the reverse side of each page of
this calendar there are ruled spac-
es which may be used for keeping
a complete record of all expenses
and receipts of the poultry bust
ness for the entire year, and many
poultrymen have been making use
of these pages for this purpose.
In discussing the subject pertain
ing to the selection of breeders, +
Mr.. Palmer states that September
and October are the best months
to select those hens which are to
be used for breeding purposes, as
it is easier at this time of the year
to pick out the best layers in the
flock, for after hens have gone F
through a molt it is more difficult
10 determine which ones have been
good producers and those which
have. been poor layers. October is
l good month in which to purchase
breeding cockerels, provided some
have not saved a suf-
icient number from their flocks, as
several poultrymen in the state
lave kept a large number of these
birds to sell during this month.
When buying cockerels, however
are should be taken to select
hose that are healthy, vigorous
md well-formed, and purchasers +
Ire advised to secure if possible
hese birds from those focks where

ng conducted. Well-matured cock !

ATTERBURY SEEKS
HELP OF EMPLOYEES
Pennsylvania Railroad Head
Urges Cooperation in
Job Sterilization.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, September 10
Gen. w w. Atterbury, president Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, last night called
upon his employees to join the man.
Agement in evolving plan for stabiliza-
ton Of employment and business in the
railroad industry.
Such plan, although intended pri-
Jnarily to solve problems confronting
the Pennsylvania Railroad, might be
the first step toward national business
planning to prevent repetition OF eco
nomic disruption, he said.
Favors SwOpe Plan.
The proposal came. he said, as the
result of the scheme for sterilization Of
industry outlined Tuesday by Gerard
trio Co., and is intended to be the first
large-scale application of the Swope
idea.
Gen. Atterbury proposed other sug-
gestionS toward solution of the present
economic problem. Among them we're:
Repeal by Congress of the capital
income tax. (which is responsible for
the disappearance of great deal Of
real value of property"
MOQlIlCaJtCH OF IIlS present dUJl-JIuSL
laws, which prevent the country from
properly controlling its production and
distribution.
Concerted attack on the part of big
business to set up machinery which will
prevent repe tition of such slumpS as the
present one.
Hits Tariff Barriers.
Lowering Of Americas tariff walls so
that other nations may sell their goods
here and secure enough money to pay
their debts
Change of policy toward South
America so that the nations would not
be aienatei and would become good
friends and good customers.
An economic coalition of many ma
tions" in Europe to permit freer inter
changeo goods.
overnments should get out of business
and stay oft. Every time government
has attempted to do anything it has
ruined business. 1t spoils what it
touches
Gen Atterbury said the Pennsylvania
probably would launch unemployment
insurance, with employees and manage
ment contributing jointly to a fund.

were eight deaths from fireworks
in the Union. This was four less
than last year. Pacific Coast
States reported 60 fatalities.
Figures gathered from all sec.
