table characteristic, they will pass
this trail on to their offspring if
left in the flock and used for breed
ing purposes, Dearstyne warned.
In hot weather, he added, it IS
especially important that only in
fertile eggs be produced for home
consumption or marketing, as they
have a much greater keeping quail
ty than fertile eggs.
Except in the breeding season,
roosters, those with the ability to
transmit good qualities to their off
spring, should be kept for breeding.
If eggs are collected several times
a day during the summer, and
stored Immediately in a cool place,
they will keep much better. Wire
baskets which permit air to circu-
late freely among the aggs are ideal
for the storage room, Dearstyne
stated.
But even under ideal conditions,
eggs should not be kept in storage
any longer than necessary. A poul-
tryman who gets a reputation of
marketing only fresh eggs can COM
mand good prices.
Lice and mites propagate rapidly
in hot weather. Infested birds too
lose their vigor and fall off in egg
production. Dearstyne urged poul-
trymen to examine their birds every
few days, SO they can check infes-
tation as soon as they start.

N. c.. FARMS NEED MORE
FEED, CATTLE, POULTRY

North Carolina farmers who
have studied agricultural con-
ditions in the state believe they
should p~roducve more poultry, live
stock, and feed, tobacco, and other
cash crops.
Such a shift in production is need
ed to balance farming to meet loc-
al requirements and at the same
time provide adjustments necessary
from a national standpoint, the
farmers decided.
Farmers who made the study were
committeeman appointed in almost
every county of the state in con-
nection with the county program.
planning movement started las,
December by the state college agri-
cultural extension service.
The 9,919 committeeman and
assistants surveyed local conditions
discussed the situation with more
than $4,000 other farmers, and
made recommendations regarding
improvements needed in this state.
A tabulation of all: their recon-
mendations, as made by Julian
Mann , who is in charge of exten,
sion studies at State College,
brought out the following points.
among other things:
The cotton crop should be cut
IS per cent below the average acre
age for the 192S-1O32 period. AL
low for better farming practices
production would be cut only 9 pei
cent.
The corn crop should tie cut
slightly, but production increased
from Al, 100000 to 6o,S90,o
bushels by securing high yields.
Small winter grains should be in.
creased from 100000 to ~1,153,O0l
acres. Hay crops should be increas.
ed from 100000 to 1,32S,oo(
acres. With the yield per acre being
doubled.
CATTLE should be increased from
$4,000 to 326,Uoo head, swine
from $4,000 to i,466,oo head

PR ROWLING CAT IS
DESTROYER OF WILDLIFE

Though the cat is more or less
useful in destroying mice and
other rodents, S. z. Pollock, void
life specialist of the Soil Conser-
walton Service in Lexington, says
that he is probably the greatest
enemy of tame song bird.
Cats have a habit of eating eggs
just ready to hatch. They delight
in capturing young song birds in
their nests, often just when they
are ready to take flight. Cats eat
young rabbits and quail, and when
they have consumed their fill, they
kill for the fun of it.
The practice of allowing cats
freedom at night and early morn
ing enables them to hunt at the
time when thy can be most des-
tructive, says Pollock. Some peo-
pie have the habit, he continues,
of taking unwanted cats into the
country in sacks and dumping
them, a practice which has
a vicious effect upon wildlife, as
such cats are in most cases compell-
ed to obtain their livelihood by
killing valuable game and insect
eating birds.
All this has a definite relation
ship to soil erosion control, says
Mr.. Pollock. The wildlife division
of the Service is concerned primari-
ly with planting various shrubs
plants and vines that serve a three
fold purpose Of controlling erosion
supplying food and cover for wild
game, and identifying the land
scape.
The wildlife, in turn, provides
its economic value as destroyers of
insects and other pests, as we'll a,
enhancing the aesthetic aspects of
farm life. Therefore, Mr.. Pollock
reasons, if the cat is allowed to des-
troy valuable wildlife, he is an enc
my to erosion control

HOME SHOULD BE WIRED
ONLY BY COMPETENT MEN

Adesuate, safe, and convenient
wiring Of the farm home is con-
sidered one of the most important
aspects of the rural identification
program.
To be sure that the wiring is
done properly, said Miss Pauline
Gordon, extension specialist in home
management at State College. en-
ploy only contractors known to be
reliable and competent.
The contractor is responsible for
doing the job SC that the wiring will
be adequate and safe, but the home
owner should determine where
switches, lights, convenient out
lets, and branch circuits are to be
located.
Miss Gordon suggested that home
owners draw floor plans of their
houses and locate switches, outlets,
and lights where they will be most
convenient. Then go over this
plan with the contractor.
If the cost of wiring according
to this plan is too high, the con-
tractor will assist the home owner
in making adjustments.
Above all else, she warned, do
not try to econemzie by using wire
too small to carry the load hat will

In planning the wiring circuits,

Farm Questions
Answered AT
STATE COLLEGE
Q. Is it economical to- carry
pullets to the hen year for produc-
ton PURPOSES on1v2

Q. Is it economical to carry
pullets to the hen year for produc-
ton purposes only?
A., This question naturally re-
verts back to the breeding of the
birds. Heavy producing pullets Of
good breeding can be carried over,
but all except the known heavy
producers should be replaced by
pullets. As a usual thing, hen year
production is about Is per cent
less than that Of the pullet year
and the bird must also be fed thru
a three months moulting period
which makes it Improbable to
carry any but the heavy egg pro-
ducers to the hen year.
Q. When should I begin feed
ing grain to my young
calves?
Answer: Small amounts of both
grain and hay should be offered the
calf at about two weeks of age or
when the change from whole milk
to skim-milk is made. Only a
small handful is given daily, but
this amount can be gradually in
creased as the calf grows older I'M
til it is receiving around three
pounds a day at six months of age.
Feed only as much as the calf will
clean up. The grain should be fed
just after the milk and while the
calf is still fastened to the stanch-
ion.

Donkeys Seldom Shy

It is explained that the reason
horses shy at unexpected sounds or
at sight of strange objects while

ed from ancestors that roamed the
plains where clumps IF grass or
bushes perhaps concealed danger.
On the other hand, donkeys are de-
scendants of hill animals to whom
surefootedness and slowness were
a necessity in travelling steep paths
and precipices. Natural enemines
were fewer and a sudden start of
alarm might have been fatal.

The death of Alice E. Dulaney on
Wednesday, May 6, 1886, marked
the passing of one whose benevo-
lence, charity, kindness and sacri-
flee was a blessing to many. She
was a daughter of the late John
Douglas and Emily Warner Dulaney,
and was born at Wrightstown, 0.
In her early childhood the family
moved to Swift, o., and later to
Stockport, O., where Alice grew to
womanhood. After taking courses
in nursing at Protestant hospital,
Columbus, (now White Cross hos
pitaD, and Lakewood hospital, at
Lakewood, O., she entered in 1920
the employ of Dr.. w. j. Benner,
where she served until her last i'll
ness, which began April 3, 1886. In
early girlhood she united with the
Stockport, but later transferred her
membership to Lakewood Metho-
dist church. She was also mem
ber of Lincoln Chapter, 0. E. S.,
Lakewood, O. Her passing has
brought sorrow not only to her i'm
mediate family, who most of all re-
alize her sterling worth, but to
hundreds of people with whom she
came in contact in professional
and social way. She was always in
terested in bringing better condi-
tions to the poor. Her love for
good literature, coupled with a re-
tentive mind and ability of compo-
sition in both prose and poetry, and
her ardent appreciation Of the
beautiful in nature, won for her
friends in all walks of life. She
