MEATIER CHICKEN BECOMES
GOAL OF POULTRY LEADERS

Americas two-billion dollar poul-
try industry has been challenged by
IA of it's national leaders to produce
fast growing, better meat-type
chicken to help retain the markets
poultrymen have won during the cur
rent meat shortage.
A 48-state contest to develop a
broad-breasted chicken-comparab
to the popular broadbreasted turkey
was announced by the group, ac-
cording to ID. d. Slade, secretary, In
ternational Baby Chick Association,
Lexington, KY, who was elected
chairman of a supervisory committee
to formulate plans for the contest.
Consisting of representatives of all
major poultry associations and key
poultrymen of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture, the committee has
been asked by A & P Food Stores to
draw up specifications for all ideal
meat-type bird to supervise distribu-
ton of $4,000 in awards which the
company has posted ''to encourage
the poultry industry to place increas-
ed emphasis on the production of a
better meat chicken to insure great
er profits for poultryment and finer
poultry for consumers dinner tables.
1.-THE program is designed to crys-
talize thinking among all poultry
breeders, from the large hatchery
man to the owner of a small back
nd Aoolr nc1nknn with
abundance OF carvings" Slade said.
"This is really challenge to rural
Americas poultry producers. Up to
this time poultry meat has been
mainly a by-product of egg produc-
ton. The committee will set STAN
ards for a bird which will have a
greater percentage of meat to bony
structure, larger proportion of white
to dark meat and broader breast
well-filled with flesh-in other words
a chicken that will offer a greater
degree of flavor and tenderness and
contain more meat than ever before
produced. The bird must mature
rapidly and the breeding stock must
maintain high egg production.
From the poultryman's angle,
Slade added, broad-breasted chick
en- should mean more economical
growth-more meat per pound of
feed eaten, which has a lot to do
with profits.
The contest will last three years
and will bring a $4,000 cash prize
to the poultryman breeding the best
bird. Annual progress awards will
total $4,000.

ORDER OF PUBLICATION
Nellie Osborne Blevins, Complainant

Nellie Osborne Blevins, Complainant
VS.. q.
James Raymond Blevins, Defendant
In the Circuit Court for Cecil County
Equity No. 6376
The object of this Bill is to secure
decree divorcing the Complainant
vinculo matrimonii from the De-
PENDANT.
The Bill states that the Complain
ant was married to the Defendant on
the 18th day of June, 1910, in Bris-
'ol, Washington, County, Virginia,
with whom she resided until the 18th
day of May, 1871; that, though the
conduct of the Complainant towards
the said James Raymond Bleyins has
always been kind affectionate and
above reproach, the said james Ray
mond Blevins has, without just cause
or reason, abandoned and deserted
her and has declared his intention to
live with her no longer, and that
such abandonment has continued un-
interruptedly for at least eighteen
months, and is deliberate and final,
and the separation beyond any rea-
sonable expectation OF reconciliation;
that one child was born to said mar
rage, daughter, Joan Leroy Blew
ms, who is three years of age and in
the custody and control of the Com
plainant; that the Complainant has
resided in Cecil County for more
than one year past before the filing
of this Bill, and the Defendant re-
sides at Ckilhowie, Smith County,
Virginia, or elsewhere beyond the
jurisdiction of this Court. The Bill
then prays for decree divorcing the
Complainant from the Defendant a
vinculo matrimonii, for the control
and custody of said minor child, and
for such other and further relief as
her case may require.
1T is THEREUPON, this 10Th day
of June, 1945, by the CIRCUIT
COURT FOR CECIL COUNTY, IN
EQUITY, ORDERED that the Com
riainant cause a copy of this Order,
with the object and substance OF the

Maryland Farmers
Plan Postwar
Expenditures

Maryland farmers expect to spend
$72,67O, 900 for Improvements In the
farm plant and in household equip
ment and general farm services In
the first two postwar years, accord
ing to the department of agricultural
economics and marketing at the I'm
iversity of Maryland.
A statewide survey conducted by
DR.. S. H. DeVault, A. M. Ahalt, and
Lawrence FlescE, shoys that antici-
pated expenditures by type of i'm
proyement are as follows: farm ma
chinery and equipment, $36,99O, 200;
farm buildings, $27,41O,000; general
service, $3,940,000; and household
equipment, $4,33O,OOO. Over the
longer postwar period the expendi
lures are expected to be considerably
larger. For example, over the longer
period of time, farmer expenditures
for new buildings and for repair CT
old ones may amount to $40, 100000.
Approximately 40 per cent of the
farmers plan to purchase some type
of motor vehicle, and about 30 per
cent plan to buy tractor. Farmers
intend to purchase large quantities
of the heavy rather than the light
types of farm implements.
Construction of new buildings &C
counts for 70 per cent of the total
building expenditures, while repairs
amount to 80 per cent. Refrigerators,
bathroom fixtures, and washing ma
chimes account for 70 per cent OF the
expenditures for household equip
ment.
About "a per cent of the post wal
improvements, the University spe
cialists reveal, are expected to be
financed from accumulated savings,
81 per cent from current income and
about II per cent from loans.

A Hint Regarding
Fishing Plugs

Remember that fishing plugs ara
Some work on top of the water and
take care of the times when the bass
are surface feeding. Others are made
SO that they dive moderately deep,
taking care of most Ordinary condi-
lions. Then there are those plugs
which sink very deep, if you lei
them do so. These are for the times
when the bass are in deep water
and hanging close to the bottom.
Some plugs are made to initiate food,
minnows, crawfish and the like. 9th
ers are just plugs with odd anu
bright colors and very erratic move
ments. These latter are very effective
in arousing the temper of the bass
and pike. They make him mad"
and incite him to strike when he has
not the least desire to feed. Ii you
want to get the most out of your
fishing, and of course you do, be sure
and get variety into your choice of
lures. Don't concentrate on one type
because it happened to bring you
luck the first time you use it. Perhaps
the next time you go out, the mood
of the fish will be different and then
it won't interest them. If you are
planning some lake fishing, it is a
good idea to have some NEEDLESS
lures in your kit. Our lakes have qite
bit of vegetable growth in tEen.
and unless your surface and under
water lures are NEEDLESS, you will
have more luck fishing in the GOLD
fish bowl
