Subject of Bulletin
Why poultry should have ac
cess to green grating crops and
the kinds of crops to grow for
this purpose are explained ln a
new bulletin of the Norlh Caro
lina experiment station and now
available to poultry growers of
the state.
The publicatioi^ discusses the
vitamin requirements for poultry,
the nutrition qualities of green
feeds, the essentials of a deslra-
able grazing crop, , and those
crops which may be grown In
succession throughout the year.
The work reported upon was con
ducted largely at the State Col
lege poultry plant and while the
publication is written In popular
form, the facts are founded upon
careful scientific research.
■T believe this bulletin will be
of tremendous value to poultry
growers.” says Roy S. Dearstyne,
one of the authors and head of
the Slate College department of
poultry. "For years we have been
asked the questions which we
have sought to solve by this
work. I suspect that hundreds

day of this Issue. Colonel Howe'
is also a member of the national
crime commission, which was
formed to try to arouse a sus
tained public Interest In practical
steps to eliminate crime so far as
humanly possible.
What has It accomplished? See
the first pages of this morning's
papers.
Well, who’s responsible?
Pbr three successive annual
meetings of the Council of Gover
nors. writes Colonel Howe in the
New York Herald-Tribune Maga
zine. the commission urged that
the reduction of crime be made a
part of the council’s agenda and
that the governors co-operate In
urging upon their several states
the uniform action needed in so
many cases.
The sugestions were received
politely and carefully considered.
I But action slopped there.
I Yet. writes Colonel Howe, “our
I investigations have showii that
^ wlienever a community is really

i press to continue to hammer on
(liine rediiclion, and particularly
wlien it demands that specific

stricting possession of niachine-
Igiins to the army, and providing

' Howe, the army was in favor of

got no further. ‘‘.So long as manu

Announcement has been nj^de
