Rotary Club Hears
Goodyear Official

Picturing events Mr.. and Mrs.
America face in the postwar
period in reference to debts to the
men in uniform and to the boys
and women doing jobs on indus
trial lines today, Arthur C. Hor-
rocks spoke yesterday to mem
bers OF the Rotary Club, meeting
at the Friendly restaurant.
The speaker first pointed out that
although the public is conscious of
the hard part which lies anead
after the war, Mr.. and Mrs. Amer
lea has more than one hundred
million dollars in savings, accumu-
lated in the last three years.
Horrocks contrasted incidents
after the last war to those of now,
when people have two and one
half times more than the total
yearly income in the lean '30s.
Plans are being formed now to de-
mobilize the servicemen, but pos
sibility was expressed that it might
be overthrow by the boys who are
too impatient for the six-month
muster.
In speaking of the readjust-
ment period, the Goodyear exc
cutive gave illustrations of a De-
troit manufacturing concern which
is ready to shift to peacetime &C.

rocks explained, that number one
place in the report went to new
automobiles.
Second want of the public, in
postwar aras is purchase or con-
struction of homes. Thirteen per
cent of the people questioned were
IN favor of this idea, he said.
In third place is request for
electrical Appliances of all types
and sorts for the homes. Fourth
place has been turned over to
furniture.
Horrocks said he saw a trend of
people moving out of city life,
partially because of lack of room
for building purposes, to the
fringes of the city in favorite To-
calities. This will be possible, in
part, he said, by increased pur-
chases of automobiles.
In emphasizing what plans large
business concerns are making for
the postwar period, the speaker
told how manufacturing capacity
has increased 26 per cent since
Pearl Harbor and how 85,025 tons

CHICK DISEASE
SHOWS DECLINE
BY THOMPSON GREENWOOD
Agriculture Dept. Editor

RALEIGH, June IS -R- L. ].
Fourie, hatchery and flock super
visor of the North Carolina Depart
ment of Agriculture, has just COM
pleted another years battle against
pullorum disease and he finds that
although chick losses due to pull
Drum disease are still serious, it
is encoura ging to not that there is
a decided decrease in the incidence
Of this disease among hatchery
supply focks.''
According to Fourie, the most
encouraging item relative to the
program looking to the eradication
of pullorum is that most OF the
hatcheries of North Carolina are
not only more interested in the
breeding quality of their hatchery
products, but are now becoming
more "Pullorum conscious.
But the disease is still a major
obstacle to the growth of the
poultry industry in this state, for
it is treacherous in its attack and
fatal, taking its greatest toll
among baby chicks-especially
during the first few weeks in the
brooder house.
In order to blot out this disease,
the state department Of Agricul-
ture, working through the veterin-
airy division, is now working in
close cooperation with the U. S.
Bureau of Animal industry in the
national poultry Improvement plan

Carolina Farm Comment

Lambs grading good have SOLD
for $3.50 per hundred and ''medi-
UNI" for $3.50. The well finished
animals weighing from 80 to 80
pounds each have all sold well and
there is strong demand for all
that can be produced. Indicationc
are that there will be an increase
in the small farm flocks of sheep
now that the cooperative pools for
lambs and wool, as worked out by
the county farm agents, have been
so successful.
Finally, there is another bright
SPOT in this unfavorable season.
Honeybees along with the other in
eects seem to have flourisned and
to have gathered an excellent crop
of honey from the spring nectar
flow. Many growers say this spring
flow will produce more honey than
was secured during the entire sea-
son last year.
Milk production also is holding
up well. Five new freezer locker
plants have been added to the total
in the State. Turkeys and chickens

and the pullorum eradication pro-
gram.
During the past several years a
large majority of the hatcheries,
poultry breeders and farmers of
this state have participated in this
program. These hatcheries, with
over 1000, OOO-egg capacity, sold
approximately 100000 chicks
during the 1894 Matching sea-
sons.
Over 100 qualified agents were
authorized by the department to
do official flock selecting and pull
Drum disease testing work during
the season just ended. Over 700
600 breeders were officially select
ed and blood-tested and all posi-
tive-rea citing birds were removed.
A large number of these birds were
tested as many as three and four
items before the main Matching
season got underway, Fourie
said.
"Since the main source of in
lection is through infected eggs
laid by hens that have the disease,
chicks Matched from these infected
eggs may have the infection al
ready present at Matching time or
may become infected in incuba-
tors, or in contaminated brooder
houses or on infected grounds,
Fourie declared.
He added that the hatcheries
participating in the national poul-
try improvement plan under state
supervision are much better able
to meet the demand for chicks
that will live we'll and develop into
profitable broilers and meat and
egg producers.
