Follow Eight "G'S" To Better Chicks The eight "C's" for better chicks may be grouped as clean eggs, clean incubators, Chicks, clean lit ter, .clean brooder houses, clean range, clean feed and clean manage ment., "Right now, the North Carolina Poultryman is entering his busiest season 'and la looking'lor l the best methods to use in growing healthy, hardy chicks which will pay him a profit," says C.. F. Parrish, extension poultryman at Stat* College. "We do not know the best way to grow healthy chicks, but we do know a program to follow which will almost Invariably make for success in the industry." •• No one can produce healthy chickß without clean eggs produced by hens that have been blood tested and found free of bucillary white diarrhea, Mr. Parrish believes. These eggs must be placed in incu bators that have been thoroughly cleaned and dried before the eggs have ever been put into them. Then, every poultryman should be careful about the chicks which he brings to his place from some other breed er or practical poultryman. Only strong, clean chicks from disease free stock Bhould be purchased. To P* a y at Lyric j Mae Marsh, as the mother, and James Dunn an the son in the Fox drama, "Over the Hill", which is coming to the Lyric for a two day's run January 28 and 29. North Carolina chicks from blood tested flocks are better than any thing that can be imported into the state at this time. The next step is to have clean brooder houses and place these on ground where chicks have not been reared before. Good ranee Is also important. It Is wise, says Farrfsh, to grow out the chicks on rang* wher* a«? poultry droppings have been spread and where some green crop has been planted. Clean litter on the floor is needed. Straw shav ings or pea mora Is good for chicks. Sawdust is poor. Tbe dole system does not work in feeding chicks. Give them all they will eat in such containers as the chicks cannot foul or waste the food. Feed for maximum results, Mr. Par- I rish recommends.
