Reminder to Poultry Growers
Poultry authorities say that
under good management condi-
t!ons' fall and winter egg produc-
ton can be increased by as much
as ~ to 30 percent by using a
good system of poultry house
Lghtlng. Now that days are GET
ting shorter it's time to use liehts
II you r not already doing So
However, poultry authorities
make several suggestions for GET
ting the most out of your lighting
system.
First, they say that the light
ing system should be used every
DAY. II the lights are used irregu-
larry, the hens mott and interrun+
egg production. 1t is also recon-
mended that you supplement the
daylight with electric light so that
your layers get from IL to ID
hours OF light each day. You may
use the lights to get extra hours
OF light before sunrise or after
sunset. If evening lights are
used, dim them for a few min
ates before they are turned off
Tor the night so the hens can
Ilnd their way to the roosts. Some
growers S lights all night but
nave them dimmed just enough
the hens can see their feed
and water.
For morning or evening light
ng, use at least 6O-watt mean
descent lamps or fluorescent
amps of equal output. For all
hight lighting, Is to 25 watt
amps + sufficient. Usually one
amp will provide enough LIGHT
or each 200 square feet Of floor
pace. Be sure the light is dis
rlbuted evenly over the feeding
.rea, with some direct light on
he roosts. Shallow r~eflectors help
n providing better light distri-
luton. :
Some growers find an auto ]
latlc lighting system - one that /
lrns the lights on and off auto l
latlcally to be a labor saving
evice. :

Drop In Farm Income
Predicted For 1856

have to stop borrowing to buy trac-
tors, fertilizer and other goods
they need, the rest Of the nations
economy will feel the impact, he
added.
For the long run, there are at
least a couple of bright spots in the
farm income picture, Bausman
pointed out. But they won't help
farmers much next year, he said.
One Of these bright spots is the
fact that our population is growing
at the rate of 21a-milliOn people a
year-which means a broader mar
ket for farmers. Another is that
supplies Of cattle and hogs are now
at a high peak and may be expect
ed to taper of gradually.
He says that the farm share Of
the consumers food dollar will
drop from the Al cents it is now
to only 40 cents next year.
Bausman further pointed out that
the predicted drop in farm income
would not only mean farmers were
able to buy less city-manufactured
goods but also might mean that
they would have to slow down their
efforts to improve agricultural eff
cheney. "A $500 mechanical corn
picker can cut costs of harvesting
corn considerably" he cited as an
example. "But when a farmer can't
afford to spend that money, the
corn he feeds his livestock is going
to cost more-and the price he's
got to charge for them when they
go to market has to be higher"

GUILT IS IMPORTANT

RICHMOND, Va. - Up The
concept which places the blame
for Juvenile delinquency entirely
on parents doesn't ring true to a
noted Catholic educator.
This philosophy of excuse ig-
nores the possibility that human
selfishness may still exist, says
Monsignor Daniel T. McCOlgan,
executive director of Nazreth, a
home for dependent children in
Boston. He says delinquents must
accept some personal responsible
ity for their offenses.
Speaking to the teachers insti-
tute of the Catholic Diocese of
Richmond, MonsignoT McCOlgan
said a sense of guilt is necessary
or there will be no reformation.
He added that good human behav-
