More Profit Now
For Poultrymen
Higher Egg Prices And
More Efficient Handling
Of Flocks Making This
Good Year In Business
With higher egg prices and
nore efficient management of
heir flocks, North Carolina
xmltrymen have been making
Digger profits in 1935 than in
he past several years.
This is giving a healthy impetus
to the poultry industry,
iaid C. J. Maupin, extension
Doultry specialist at State Colege.
But he warned, of the danger
hat over-zealous poultrymen, in
in effort to produce the greatest
possible number of eggs, may
ower the quality of their flocks
Dy keeping culls with the other
Dirds.
Although feed prices have been
joing up, he added, the better
nanaged flocks have attained a
state of efficiency great enough,
n some cases, to more than offset
the higher cost of feed.
In 109 demonstrations over the
State during the month of Sep;ember,
for example, according to
ecords just completed at the
college poultry department, the
iverage return above feed costs
vas 14 cents for each bird.
September is an off month in
:gg production, Maupin pointed
)ut, yet the flock averages were
nore than 10 eggs per bird, or
little above standard reduction
or the month.
The averages include all birds
n the flocks, both those which
ire laying well and those which
lave either stopped laying or alnost
stopped, Maupin brought
>ut.
The average sale price of eggs
luring the month was 33 cents
l dozen, or 3.4 cents higher than
he same month a year ago and
! cents higher than in Septem>er,
1933. v

"Yes, sir," said Elsie gravely
"Please be seated."

Plans for transformation of an
j impoverished section of the North
Carolina Sandhills into an allyear
playground and self-sustainling
forest, nursery and hatchery
project, took a step nearer reality
this week with announcement
by James M. Gray, of Raleigh,
Regional Director of Land Utilization,
Resettlement Administration,
of approval of the purchase
of 60,000 acres in that area.
For purchase of land for the
(extensive project, located in
Hoke, Richmond, Scotland, Montgomery
and Moore counties, an
' allocation of $478,000 has been
made, Mr. Gray said.
All the land being acquired by
the government has been volun-J
1 tarily offered for sale by the
owners, he reported, and options
are now being accepted. Frank
IW. Eatman, Southern Pines, is
j project manager.
This project was initiated under
the Land Policy Section of
'the Agricultural Adjustment Adjustment
Administration as an
1 agricultural demonstration project.
Its approval by the Resettlement
Administration, to which
the project was transferred,
means that plans for the area
1 j will be continued.
Designated as the Sandhills
i Land Project, this area, adjacent
j to Pinehurst, Southern Pines,

Neglect Of Soil
Major Problem
The Lowly Mule Receives
Less Abuse Than The
Land On The Average
Farm In North Carolina
The lowly mule, according to
lomer H. B. Mask, Regional Diector
of Rural Resettlement for (
tie Resettlement Administration, ,
i better protected from a farmr's
abuse than the land on '
/hich he toils.
"A man can be put in jail for 1
eating his mule under the law
a some localities, but nothing |
an be done to him for mistreat-!
lg his land," Mr. Mask said.
This is a sad commentary on
ur times?the life of a mule, at
est, is but twenty years, while
he land is there forever, to be <
sed not only by the present
wners but also by generations :

Mr. Mask is directing the Resettlement
Administration's pro- a
gram of rehabilitation and rural ' *
resettlement in Virginia, West
Virginia, North Carolina, Kentucky
and Tennessee, the work
being part of a national program
to help low-income farm families
and bring about better use of
land resources.
One little girl was attempting
to show a young friend how deficient
a mutual friend was in the
art of roller-skating.
"This is the way she skates,"
began the child, demonstrating
the incorrect manner. The words
were scarcely out of her mouth
when she fell rather heavily to
the walk.
Rising quickly, she continued:
"Well, well, she doesn't skate
right anyway."
J. L. Hartley, of Linville, Avery
county, sold strawberries from his
patch from June 20 until the
middle of October.
