Mr. Parsons is the pastor of the Wendell Christian | Church and a member of the Wen dell Rotary Club. He was intro duced by the Rev. B. A. Asbury. Tonight Major Barrie Davis, public information officer of the 30th Infantry Division, will address the local Rotarians on the North Carolina National Guard. Major Davis, former commander of the Zebulon National Guard unit, is editor of The Tar Heel Guardsman, a semi-official publication with its editorial offices in Zebulon. CONNIE (Continued from Page 1) Zebulon," he said, “and I cer tainly hope that we won’t see it.” He went on to say that he thought that there was nothing much that people could do unless they were certain that the storm would reach Zebulon. “Just wait it out,” he said, “and hope for the best, is about all we can do right now." Zebulon Civil Defense director Pat Farmer said that his organiza tion had made no definite plans for action if the story should take a route through Zebulon. “I do not think that Zebulon’s civil (defense unit is capable of f adequately handling anything like Hazel was last j jar, but we will do all we can if Connie forces us to.” Mr. Farmer said that he is hop ing for aid from Zebulon’s Nation al Guard unit, if the hurricane should do critical damage to Zeb ulon. The local civil defense Dro gram is insufficient to carry out work of that kind, he pointed out. Lt. Jack Potter, commander of Battery A, Zebulon’s National Guard outfit, said that his unit will cooperate in every way pos sible if needed for emergency work. The local unit assisted in such work following Hazel’s dam age last October. Ralph Talton, district manager of the Carolina Power and Light Co. in the Zebulon area, said yes terday that the company as a whole has alerted 530 company linemen and 500 linemen from contractors outside the company to stand by in the event of possible hurricane damage to.their service. “Most of our men have been alerted for service in the Wilming ton area," he said. “Around here, we haven’t done too much, because we do not want to commit our New Poultry House Lighting Is Advocated cm New Jersey Farms By IRA MILLBR Farm Electrification Bureau If results elsewhere prove as successful as they have in southern New Jersey, it looks as if present poultry house lighting recommenda tions are due for some changes.

Here’s the story: standard recommendations call for 40-watt lamps to be hung 6 feet above the floor on the basis of one for every 200 square feet of floor area. New Jersey poultrymen found that these suggestions worked fine as long as the reflectors were clean and there was enough lights to ade quately illuminate feeding and wa tering areas, as well as perches. But when dust accumulated on the reflectors, they discovered that poul try houses went into involuntary dim-outs and that chickens refused to come down from their dark perch es at night. The result was lower egg production. Also, these Jersey farm ers are of the opinion that the 40- watt lamps do not provide enough light when installed as recommended. They advocate that illumination lev els be raised to 3 to 5 (foot candles, rather than follow present sugges resources until damage has actual ly been done. “We have sufficient manpower and material in this area to cope with the first shock and to restore service to the town,” he continued. “That is, if the hurricane strikes us,” he added. Speaking of the company’s re sources in the Zebulon area, Mr. Talton said that there are nine men in Zebulon, three in Spring Hope, plus an additional six to eight man crew in that town, and eight men in Nashville, all of whom can be called for service in the Zebulon area if needed. “The gasoline electric generator which we have is capable of sup plying enough power to keep our company station in operation in case of a power failure. All of our truck crews may be reached almost immediately by radio,” he said. And so. Zebulon waited and hoped that Connie would go an other way. But the threat of another Hazel was not felt by everyone in Zebu lon. The Negro man who stepped into Pat Farmer's store yesterday morning was afraid that the light company might cut off his lights. When told that Connie might cut them off before the company would, he looked a little startled. “Who’s she?” he wondered. MAGAZINES FOR 1955 Subscribe now for any publication at publishers price.

The poultrymen presented their problems to their power suppliers and considerable experimentation and study were conducted before the flood lamps were accepted. This type of lamp is available from nearly all light bulb manufacturers. It has silvered sides, coated with aluminum. Although its first cost is higher, the flood lamp has a longer life, burning approximately 2,000 hours as com pared with 750 hours for comparable Mazda bulbs. The lamp has a built in reflector so dust and dirt have little adverse effect on its lighting qualities. This eliminates the extra work of cleaning reflectors. Properly located, such lamps will meet the new suggested higher illumination levels. Because of their higher wattage, the R (for reflector) 30, 75-watt lamps may or may not increase light ing costs. This depends on the num ber needed to do a satisfactory il lumination job. Costs of operation, however, are. only relative —it’s the benefits obtained in extra income and less work that count. For ex ample, one test case in New Jersey showed that, although a farmer paid ZlVz cents more per month for his electricity with flood lamps, his egg production increased 6%, adding $18.75 to his monthly gross income.
