Another Point
For Busy Hens
A fast working hen not only I
ays more eggs than the loafing r
ten, but her eggs usually hatch s
tetter. i
Hatchability, the United States ?
>epartment of Agriculture has s
earned, is closely linked with j
tigh egg production. It found I
hat eggs which remain in the }
ten's oviduct and uterus 24 to 27 11
tours before they are laid are r
nore likely to hatch than those i;
etained longer. An egg's hatch- d
ng qualities apparently are af- ?
ected by the hen's body tempeature
when they remain in the ^
tody more than 27 hours. Eggs f
ncubated in an incubator at a
emperature of 105 to 107 Fah- ~
enheit, the hen's normal body
emperature, seldom hatch. When
:ept warm by the sitting hen, (
ggs never reach the same tern'erature
as the hen's body.
Lazy hens which lay, say 2 j
lays a week often keep the eggs
n the oviduct and uterus as long I g
s 30 hours before laying them. f
)n the other hand, the tests
how hens which lay 6 days a ^
reek seldom retain the eggs n
aore than 27 hours.
nakes this mistake suffers, and |c
3 solely to blame because no full j
iquiry was made in advance as 1
o the true status of the club.
In becoming a member of the | ^
imerican Red Cross, no mistake fl
an possibly be made. In more js
han 50 years of world wide ser- P
ices, in giving aid where it has b
een called for regardless of sex *
ace or color, in whatever coun-j?
ry on the Globe the call came i
rom, the American Red Cross e
ecame international in its chap- jv
cter and service and quickly |b
cached where aid and need was c
rgent and brought the much jc
ashed for relief.
A few years ago the people of a
trunswick county in their dis- n
-ess received Red Cross aid with P
>od and wearing apparel that a
'ere sorely needed, because most e
f our people, however willing to "
id their neighbors, had either *Khausted
their scanty means, or e
rere unable to furnish any aid. !
This local and pressing need S
an arise without notice. The v
lements of nature respect no v
ommunity, The wind can cause c
evastation; torrential rains may "
verwhelm home and crops; fire t
my sweep lands, destroying and "
saving all waste, with lives be- 11
1 g taken. Here comes Red Cross P
id, immediate succor. The word
f cheer and kindness-and such
laterial help as to bring restoation
to those whom have been n
isited with some terrible cal-iF
mity. d
Is it not wonderful to feel and!1
now that one may be a member ,c
f such a truly great organiza-1
ion, to realize that our small
nnual dues of one dollar has
jlned with millions of other
uch dollars, and because of this j
ride membership and co-opera- I
ive contribution of people, citi- I
ens of the entire world become
rothers in that highest state of
elf-sacrifice ?
The American Red Cross asks j
or your membership. Will you I
ot join the grandest of organi- i
ations?the Red Cross?

THE
Unseasonably Wai
Retards
Reports received by the Departnent
of Commerce from widely
icattered areas 01 the county
ndicated that retail trade at the
ind of October continued to be
teld back somewhat by unsealonably
warm weather in many
>laces. Practically all the 33 retorting
cities, however, showed
mprovement over the same perod
of 1934.
Manufacturers and wholesalers
eported that they were beginnng
to feel the stimulus of holilay
buying with prospects for a
onsiderable increase in business
iver last year. The trend was
ilso to better quality merchanlise.
In many instances, orders
or gift goods were 20 per cent
greater than in 1934 and diffiulty
in obtaining delivery was
eported in some lines. New .York
eported earlier than normal
Jhritmas buying in many lines
vith particularly heavy increases
n luxury lines. A survey of
'hiladelphia manufacturers and
wholesale firms indicated increass
over last year of 22 per cent,
teports of favorable holiday
respects were received from
loston, Atlanta, Buffalo, Cinciniati,
Louisville, St. Louis, New
)rleans, Kansas City, San Franisco,
Los Angeles and Seattle.
Expanding automobile producion
was an influence in the
ising trend of industrial activiy
and was beginning to account
or sustained production in the
teel industry. Automobile units
reduced through October 26 toiled
153,000 compared with 95,28
for the entire month of
eptember.
Employment gains were reportd
in practically all areas as
VPA projects got under way,
us seasonal expansion also acounted
for a considerable inrease
in private employment.
Cotton mill activity was at
higher level, following the gains
mde in September. Electric
ower production reached a new
11 time high. Lumber production
ased off slightly after reachlg
a peak in the first half of
Ictober and stocks were considrably
lower than a year ago.
Although excess bank reserves
ained $80,000,000 from the preious
week to $3 billion, there
re re evidence of increased agriultural
and industrial borrowigs.
An upward trend in shorterm
interest rates was initiated
a the New York market. Christnas
savings accounts were reorted
to have greatly increased
a number and size.
Building construction in 766
ientical cities continued a wide
largin of increase over last year,
larticularly in the new resilential
building classification. The
otal construction cost in these
ities in September was $74,502,78,
compared with $39,607,339

Farm Questions
Question: How long does it
I take to fatten beef cattle for
market ?
Answer: Under average conditions,
cattle taken from pasture
with no additional feed cannot be
satisfactorily fattened under four
months. Where there is sufficient
feed it is better to feed them out
for four and one-half to five
months. The extra weight and
finish will more than pay the
feed cost and the cattle will
bring a premium for the prime
finish.
Question: Should turkeys be
confined before killing and what
is the shrinkage on dressed turkeys?
Answer: It is a good practice
to confine the turkeys for from
18 to 24 hours before they are
killed. During this time a liberal
supply of water should be provided
but no feed given. Where
turkeys are dressed but not
drawn there will be about a 10
per cent loss of feathers and
blood. Full-drawn turkeys lost
about 25 percent of their live
weight. When the birds are to
be shipped care should be given
to proper packing. See your farm
or home agent for specific instructions
as to killing and packing.
in the same month last year,
a gain of 88.1 per cent, while
the increase in new residential
building was 167.4 per cent.
Income of $636,000,000 from
farm marketings in September
brought the total for the nine
months of the year to $4,304,000,000.
In addition, rental and
benefit payments of $406,000,000
made total cash of $4,710,000,000
received this year, compared
with $4,453,000,000 for the same
period last year. As a result, the
estimated cash income for the
year has been increased to $6,800,000,000.

Thorough Cleaning Up Of c
Orchards And Packing j,
Sheds During Winter
' Will Aid Materially In :
Disease Control
A thorough cleaning up of the I
apple orchards and packing sheds
| this winter will aid materially in
I the control of codling moths.
The moths spend the winter in
larve form, said C. H. Brannon,
j extension entomologist at State
I College, and the destruction of
these larvae will greatly reduce
the number of moths emerging
next spring.
The larvae, or worms in cocoons,
are found under loose
bark on the trees, in crevices j
around the trunk and larger |
brances, among trash and weeds j
around the trees, and in crevices j
in the packing house.
Brannon advises that all loose
bark be scraped from the trees, j
that crevices be cleaned out, and |
that all trash be removed from I
the orchard and burned.
Many worms are brought into
the packing sheds with the fruit, i
and leave cocoons in crevices of |
posts, walls, floors, baskets, and i
barrels.
It is a good policy to screen
the sheds, when possible, so that
any moths which emerge in the j
spring will be kept inside the j
sheds and away from the orch- ]
ard. Otherwise, all fruit contain- j
ers should be stored in a moth- j
tight place, and the shed given
a thorough cleansing.
Destruction of the larvae will
not take the place of spraying
early next year, Brannon pointed
out, but as there will be a few
larvae which manage to survive
! the winter.
Heavy spraying early in the ,
j season, he added, will eradicate 1
many of the young moths and
thereby reduce the need of heavy
applications later on.
J. L. Hartley, of Linville, Avery
county, sold strawberries from his
| patch from June 20 until the
! middle of October.
