SIX MILLION In SIX YEARS

In connection with the 28th an
niversary of his association with
General Motors, M. q. Coyle, general
manager, Chevrolet Motor Division,
announced the completion OF the six-
millionth automobile built during
the past six years by the industry's
leader.
during this period, when Chevrolet
has averaged q million-a-year pro-
duction, Mr.. Coyle has served as
general manager of this largest g.
M. unit. He became affiliated with
General Motors December 26, 1911,
the first year that saw auto produc-
ton in the country pass the zoe, 900
mark.
Chevrolet's six-millionth car dur
ing this SIX year period came on the
assembly line at Flint Dec. "a, giv-
ing the company the unique distinc-
ton of having been the only. auto
manufacturer to maintain such an
average in recent years.
Mr.. Coyle paid high tribute to G.
E. Wetherald, general manufacture
ing manager, and w. e. H0ller, gem
eral sales manager, whose close CO..
operation and mutual effort have
been responsible for the establish
ment of this unusual record.
BY way of contrast, Mr.. Coyle
compared Chevrolet's current pro-
duction rate with that set by the
entire industry in 1911, drawing ON
his memory of early day with Gem
eral Motors, which was founded only
three years before.
In that year, 100000 automobiles
were manufactured by all companies
in the country. Chevrolet alone has
produced more than 100000 cars
and trucks in the last quarter OF
1899.
'sWe are proud of our million-a-
year average since January 1884,
In view of the economic and social
adjustments that have been made In
this period, such a record IL o strong
testimonial for Chevrolet" Mr..
Coyle said.

About Workers Who Are More Than
Go Years Old

Comes a letter from a man 10
years of age who says that he has
worked In a foundry for the past
20 years and hopes to retire next
spring. He wants to know what he
should do in order to qualify for
old-age and survivors insurance
benefits.
Since this man (whom we shall
call Mr.. X) was 65 years old before
the old-age and survivors insurance
system went into operation, he was
not covered by the law during 1887
and 1888. He paid no tax on his
wages for these years and neither
did his employer pay any tax ON such
wages. Beginning with the first day
of January 1889 all wages received
by him in covered employment count
toward his insurance benefits regard
less of his age.
1t is quite evident from his letter
that Mr.. x received $50 (and more)
during the first quarter of 1899
(January, February, March,; an
other $50 during the second quar-
ter; another $50 during the third
quarter and at least $50 during the
last quarter of 1899. II he has
secured a social security account
number and his employer has re-
ported his wage earnings to the Gov
eminent, Mr.. X has established q
wage record and has received credit
thereon for all wages received in
covered employment last year.
If an older worker does not have
enough wage credits to qualify for
monthly benefits, he may continue
working in covered employment and
building up sufficient credits. AS
in the case of Mr.. x, who already
has four calendar quarters to his
credit, he will be eligible to file
claim for benefits after he has work
ed some time during two additional
calendar quarters, and has received
wages of not less than $50 per quar-
ter. His wage record will then show
that he has worked in job which
paid him at least $50 during each
of six quarters, after he came into
the system. Then he can claim
monthly oldage and survivors i'm
surance benefits.

Security Board, sos Park Avenue.

COLLEGE PARK, MD.-Dr. Ken
meth keller, head of the animal and
dairy husbandry department of the
University of Maryland, today an
nounced the plan of his department
for research work in connection with
the new $3.50, 200 dairy cattle and live
stock unit recently completed here un-
der State-WPA building program.
DIR. keller said he felt the new ia
cilities, together with the experienced
and well trained personnel Of the de-
partment, placed the University in a
leading position to render new and
valuable service to the $4,000, 900
State livestock industry.
Fifteen different research projects
are now underway, involving ~
Breeding and Testing; (2) Feeding
and Nutrition; (3) Livestock Disease
Studies cooperating with veterinary
science); (4) Studies in Quality Milk
and It's Products; (5) Quality Meat
Studies; and (6) Marketing of Live
stock and Its Products cooperating
with agriculture economics),
Several additional research projects
are contemplated on pasture studies
in swine production, and In certain
phases Of protein, vitamin and min
eral studies.
In addition to these DIR. Ikcler
pointed out "the need for research
work to increase the efficiency Of milk
production by the concentration of i'm
proved germ plasm in carefully con-
trolled dairy cattle breeding expert
ments to offset the increased cost of
milk production"

including buildings, equipment, and

Many poultry raisers today are wisely
maintaining steady year round egg
production and egg income by starting
baby chicks six times a. year, according
to j. H. Burrell, Purina Mills Poultry
Specialist. This is much more efficient
and profitable, he says, than the age
old practice Of starting one or two
punches of chicks in the spring with
resulting peaks and valleys in egg
yolume and earnings throughout the
whole production cycle.
ION the old one-or- two-time bash"
says Burrell. poultry raisers built up
markets at certain seasons Of the year
when they had plenty Of eggs. Then
they lost those markets at other sea-
sons because they were out of eggs. But
this up-and-down problem is now being
eliminated by poultrymen who put off
to broods of chicks during the year,
according to the size of their fiocks.
The new plan keeps just enough pullets
coming in to maintain full houses Of
laying birds all year.
How the Plan Works
"An individual poultry farm I know
Of that is brooding chicks six times
annually has q total laying capacity
of $500 birds. They take of 750 chicks
per hatch starting in January and con-
tinuing once month through April.
The fifth and sixth matches come of in
September and October. By this pro-
cedure they bring 800 pullets into pro-
duction IN June, July. August. septem-

to keep the flock at full $500 bird lay
ing capacity the year around. The ball
ance OF the pullets resulting from this
system are sold.
sohviously, months and dates for
putting such plan into effect may be
changed by poultry raiser to any
months suitable for rounding out the
program to fit individual locations and
circumstances" says Burrell. "The big
point is that such system when prop
erly functioning helps to furnish a uni
form weekly supply of eggs through the
year.
Craftsmanship Important Factor
"Another important step in paving
the way to poultry profits is to practice
craftsmanship in the merchandising OF
eggs and poultry meats" says Burrel.
when poultry raiser knows he is pro-
ducing quality product he should
have an effective method for telling
people about it in truthful, convinc-
ing way. OF course, the only way to
develop and maintain quality egg and
meat output is through following well
planned, workable program that oper-
ates on the basis Of high uniform pro-
duction. efficient labor and low over
head.

Textbook, to be had for fifteen cents
