new bills designed to eliminate
strikes in defense industry.
Mr.. Smith was one of the
mildest to take the floor in the
present round of denunciation,
but speaking of recent strikes in
the aluminium and airplane in
duStries, he did get worked UP
enough to ask the House: Now,
does it strike you as significant
that this little handful of radical
reds in these various key mat
tiers have been able to absolutely
stop the production necessary
and essential materials in two of
the most important things this
country has to deal WITH"
And he drew generous round
of applause when he concluded
with: i just urge the Congress

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES"
Mississippi Farm
News
BY F.. j. Hurst, Extension Editor

That Mississippi farmers can deve-
lop additional profitable cash enter
prises to supplement their income
from disappearing cotton markets
was n of the high points emphasiz.
ed by farmers who took part in group
discussions at annual Farm and Home
Week at Mississippi State College.
Mr.. H. J. Gullege, a bee and poul-
try farmer of Lauderdale county, told
how he started bee farming in 1881
with an investment OF only S25 in
Italian bees and equipment and how
during the next 9 years he increased
his investment in bees and equipment
to $500 and his sales of honey to
$4,058. He retails 80 percent of his
extracted honey in 5-pound buckets.
Only honey made from the spring
and early summer flowers is sold.
Honey from b~itterwoods and late
summer is left for the bees, thus
enabling them to go through the
winter months without having to be
fed.
Mr.. Gullege also told how he
manages a flock of 100 Rhode Is
land Red hens and how since 1885 he
has made a net profit of $1,969
through the sale of eggs and broilers.
He keeps good laying hens through
the second laying season. His total
investment in four brooder houses,
one laying house, two electric broo-
ders, and equipment is $171. He has
made an average net of slips per
hen per year.
Mr.. NJ. M. McKinnon, of Tate
county, told how he had added dairy.
ing to cotton farming to supplement
his farm income. He has rs grade
Jersey cows with an average butter
fat production per cow of about 800
pounds per year. He attributes his
high production to the feeding of an
abudance of good homegrown feed
and provision of ample improved
pasture. He has improved 60 acres of
pasture by the application of 200
pounds of superphosphate and l to
~ tons of lime per acre and the
seeding of l~espedeza, bermuda, and
dallis grasses and white and hop
clovers.
Hillard Canada, young Kinds
county farmer, told how he and his
father had developed a profitable
beef cattle herd through the use of
good bulls, selection of the best hei-
fers, which are properly fed and
we'll housed. He said AAA payments
had enabled him to carry out soil
building and pasture-improving prar-
tees which have proved a substantial
aid to better farming.
The Mississippi Seed Improvement
Association at it's first annual meet
ing elected J. G. Pritchard, Inverness,
president; Harrison Evans, Shu-
qualak, vice-president; L. l. Jones,
State College, secretary; and H. L,
Gary, w. T. Barnett, B. B. Payne,
George Perry and Frank Harbart
directors.
