ters which are used to house flock
replacement pullets from day-old
to maturity.
Second stop will be at the CO.
operative Mills Research Farm,
Route Is south of Greenwood, at
1000 a. m. Here the group will
see bulk feed truck blowing feed
into ton bin and II. 400 broilers
in 38 research pens. Experiments
include comparison of automatic
feeders versus hand feeders, feed
ing different size pellets, differ
ent types of feed ingredients, high
protein (24To) and high energy
(1000 calories) rations, diethyls-
tilbestrol hormone and. finisher
pellets (high percentage of corn,
BIZ, NICOTINE acid and potassium
chloride). Cards will be posted on
the door of each pen, explaining
the experiment in progress; and
results of previous experiments
will be distributed
Emory Williamson of Green
wood will be the third visit. Points
of interest here include removable
panels in the rear wall for cross
ventilation III summer, white 10"
overlap roll roofing and feeding
antibiotics for growth promotion.
Next stop will be at Jarrelrs
poultry farm near Viola. He raises
$4,000 broilers in a house 4S feet
wide and 357 feet long. This al
lows one square foot per bird
There are six pens, with 5000
chicks, seven stoves (425 chicks per
stove) and eight water fountains
8 feet long (375 chicks per s.
trough) in each pen. He uses five
1-gallOn glass jars and box lids
per stove until the chicks are two
weeks of age; then small metal
chick feeders to 4 weeks of age
Twenty s. feeders per 1000 broil-
ers are used after A weeks of age.
An sinsulated aluminium roof, VEN
tilation openings along peak of
gable, an elevated feed platform
and poultry disposal pit are other
points of interest here.
After lunch, the group will visit
Ed. Laramore, near Wyoming. He
has a narrow" 25' 300 broiler
house with a shed roof and COR
crete block construction. There
are several novel features about
this house. He has 10 it. long metal
"V'' water troughs which fit snug
ly between two interior posts so
they can't be knocked over. The
trough and reel can be raised and
lowered separately; and when the
chicks are young, he unhoOks one
end and sets it next to the stove
with the free end on a wood block
Another interesting item is 6" re-
movable boards between the rear
rafters, which he starts opening
when chicks are days old to in
crease the amount of ventilation.
He also has staggered front and
rear doors As feet apart for cross
ventilation.
Last stop on the tour will be at
the Dover Air Base, where guides
will show the transport planes, jet
squadron, training facilities and
other points of interest.
All poultrymen are invited to at
tend the tour, which is being spon-
sored by the University of Della
ware Agricultural Extension Serv-
ice, State Board of Agriculture and
Delaware Poultry Improvement
Association.

Make the Mind Work

A few minutes each day will give
you the equal of college education
if spent in making the mind work. The

as it is allowed to become Join in
community enterprises and appreciate
the struggles others make to provide

to breathe.
When Sunday comes, unless you are
tied into work where Sunday work is
essential, take the family to church and
worship God in song and devotion with
them.
IF you do all these things, you may
not pile up a great fortune and you
may leave your descendants little but
some very secondhand furniture, but
if you have lived so that they can point
their faces toward God and all the good
things, you may be said to have lived
a life.
When your loved ones look into your
face for the last time, their sorrow
viii be touched with a gladness that

You Can Make a Living

You can make living and never
look inside book. You can exist if
you don't know the difference between
a musical note and bank note. You
do not need to spend one nickel for
magazines and good reading. You can
draw your breath without saying one
prayer, and became brother to the
cIod that the pillow turns over. You can
make living without education, piety
or culture.
But if you desire to make life, a
life that is thrilling with inspiration,
a life that is light to little children,
if you want to improve the quality of
life in your community, life that is
both worthwhile and noble, then stop
a little while to look at the stars, stop
long enough to lend a hand to your
neighbours ills, do some things that re-
quire no money payment, pause to pray
for your own soul, for your loved ones,
your country and the world.
That old family Bible has most of the
answers if we keep it busted off by
reading it. Acquaint your mind with
thoughts that the ages have proven to
be wise and good. Mix your practical
everyday vocabulary with the alphabet
of Heaven.

Thoughts on Life
A Living
Or
A Life
By DR.. JOHN HOLLAND

SOME PEOPLE make living while
others make a life.
Most anyone man make a mere hv-
ing. If a person has normal mind and
a rugged body, he can manage to earn
his groceries. Many seem to think that
is about all there is to lving-the ''com-
mon herd that merely feed and sleep"
as Lowell pointed out.
The people who desire to make life
pause each day to think, to pray and
lend a hand to other people.
Jesus said: Life is more than meat,
and the body than raiment." He took
time to look at the flowers and the
stars. For Him the birds were preach
ing lessons to those who would stop and
think. He made living, not luxuri-
GUS living to be sure, and he left his
garments to the gamblers who cast lots
at the foot of His Cross, yet He lived
the greatest Life that has ever graced

UNIT die? Although the debate hasn't
started yet, it's easy to answer that question:
This is democracy where the people rule,
and the people are against UNIT"
Those are the words of the widely respected
Edwin G. Johnson, Colorado new Governor.
who was bitter foe of UNIT. during his long
Senatorial career.
A surprisingly similar viewpoint was ex-
pressed recently by strong supporter of
UNIT. Senator Ralph Flanders of Vermont.
The policy of Universal Military Training
has been one which the parents and children
of America have come to view as the negation
of the free life which is the ideal of Western
civilization. Senator Flanders said, in a
speech favoring UNIT!
Some economy minded Congressman are
worried about costs at time when the
government is pledged to reduction in
spending. But the feeling that the voters
won't stand for the law is still the biggest
roadblock
What basis is there for this feeling?

which are now dangerously weak. Upon COM
pleting six months of UNIT. many young
sters would be enlisted into the regular Army.
The hundreds of thousands not needed to keep
the Army up to its authorized strength would
go directly into huge reserve force, and
would be required to remain in the active
reserves for several years. taking certain
amount of refresher training fyom time to time.
Through UNIT. we could build up
ready-to-fght reserve of 100000 men in
about five years Eventually, we could MAIN
tain 100000 or 6.000.O .O00-man reserve if
that is considered necessary.
II isn't even necessary for Congress to pass
new law to bring this about. There's per
fectly good law on the books = the Universal
Military Training and Service Act. This Act
was passed way back in June. 1851, and
promptly forgotten. Under the Act. UNIT.
was supposed to go into operation as soon as
Congress gave the '.go-ahead' sign. But Con-
gress has never given the signal The Act will
die on June 80, 1855 unless our new Con-

UNIT has been receiving high-level support
from leaders of both parties. But no Congress
has ever put a UNIT. law into effect.
s>Doubtful Prospects"
WHAT are the chances that the Saith Congress
will take action on UNIT. this time? put
that question to Senator Lyndon Johnson Of
Texas. Senator Johnson, the Senate's new
majority leader. is noted for his ability to pre-
dict how Congress will vote weeks before
proposal reaches the floor. The Senator told
me:
Il am afraid prospects for UNIT. are
doubtful"
Ichecked with other Senators and Congress
men from various sections of the country.
