ANDREWS BRIEFS
O
At their regular meeting January
17, the Cherokee chapter of the
United Daughters of the Confederacy
went on record as favoring the pay
ment of pensions to Confederate vet
erans monthly instead of semi-anr
nually as at present. The chapter
passed a resolution memoralizing the
members of the Legislature at Ral
eigh to work to this end.
It was pointed out in discussing
the resolution that the p nsion is the
only source of income for many of
the veterans p.nd widows of veterans,
and that six-month intervals between
th pension payments often works a
leal hardship on them. The coopera
tion of other chapters will be solici
ted in bringing this matter to the at
tention of the legislators.
The m eting Saturday was held at
the home of the the Misses Kate and
Leila Hayes near Tomotla. The Miss
es Hayes had as joint hostess th ir
aunt, .Mis. Xan Fulmer. Mrs. Giles
Cover, president of the chapter pre
sided. .Among the business matters
to receive the attention was the re
port of the committee in charge of
; lacing mark rs upon the unmarked
??raves of soldiers and veterans. It
'.vas reported that applications had
been made for more than fifty mark
ers. ,
Alter the business session Rev. R.
V Prevost of Andrews made a talk
>n "Lee, the Christian Gentleman"
The hotcssi s.rved a delicious salad
course as refreshments. As a con
clusion to the program Mrs. Fulmer
recited "The first Battle of Manass- 1
a.-." to the gflcat deli'ght of all.
The Andrews Woman's Club held
it-- regular monthly meeting in the
club room at the school building on
Tuesday afternoon, January l'?. On,
recount of the fact that the prcsi
d nt, Mrs. I). 11. TilliU was on the
program Mrs. Giles Cover presided.
Mrs. Rose Perron and Mrs. Roy De
Lung were received as new memb rs.
The business session was occupied
i-lieifly with reports and discussion of
the work tlv club is doing in serving
?hool lunches. Ove two hundred free
"ches were reported served during
Dec mbr. Plans were made for en
larging this fa ir of the club service
n account of le many appeals that
ure coming in or help.
Mrs. K. F. Troutman gave an in

The use of scientific m'-thods plus
a generous supply of preservance and
, faith is bringing success in the poul
try business to Mr. and Mrs. Chas.
Wood of Andrews. These people are
| demonstrating very forcfully how
poultry can be made to contribute
handsomely to the family budget.
Two years ago Mr. and Mrs. Wood
began with poultry in a small way.
They did not have the advantage of
extensive quarters and other oppor
tunities that a farm might offer

ince there was only an ordinarv
1 size town lot available at the back
I of th-ir homo. But by careful plan
jning and utilization of their spaco
i they have been able to take care of
a rather phenominal growth in their
busin ss.
Believeing that, the best is none
too ?ood to insure success they have
not practised a false economy in the
purcha&A of cheap equipment and
; : tock. Their flock of one hundred
i fifty White Leghorn hens comes
from the very best strains in the
country and each individual in the
flock is scl cted for production.
Their liatcnery is equipped with a
late model Joniesway incubator of
2100 eggg capacity and brooder fa
cilities are adequate to car for the
>utput. From the hatchery last year
500 baby chicks were sold to custo
meis in Cherokgg <*ountv. As yet it
has not 1* en necessary to ?o out of
i the county in search of customers.
I In the two years of its operation the
hatchery has paid for its equipment.
I Custom hatching has proved to be a
, profitable featur and will continue
to be carried on.
I Not having had any special poul
try experience or training Mr. and
Mrs. Wood turned to County Agent
Gray for instruction and guidance.
According to Mrs. Wood's statement
they have followed these instruc
tions diligently.
They believe in utilizing .".11 the
help that is available.
Among th factors that are con
ti Uniting most to their success with
i poultry they believe to be the ex
I treme care exercis d in selecting E*gs
for hatching; close attention to san
itation ; and the merciless culling and
| grading of their flock. Of course
j Mr. and Mrs. Wood are firm advo
? cates o f coop rative marketing
