Culling Moots Pays Dividends Because of the rise in feed pric es and the decline in egg prices. North Carolina poultry growers should thoroughly cull their laying flocks and maintain as high egg production as possible, says ('. F, Parrish, in charge of Poultry Ex tension at North Carolina State College. He suggests that flocks he cull ed at night, when the girds will be disturbed as little as possible. Csing a flashlight, the grower can take the loafers from his flock and save on feed costs. The non-laying hens show a pale, dry comb, which is shrinking up and scaly. The face has a yellow tint. In the beak eye ring, the yellow color reappears when laying stops. "Most heav breeds and all yel low skinned varieties of poultry ,666 TABLETS. SALVE.

He points out that the comb of the laying hen is soft, warm, waxy and full of blood. Tli • face is bright red, and the beak and eye-ring is bleached out and white. "In culling hens, late mol ter should he retained as breeder- if the grower plans to reproduce ... flock from the present group of hens,” Parrish says. “Cull out but do not sell out," was another com ment.

In locating new beds, they ad vise a loamy type of soil with a high content of organic matter, the bed to have a southern ex • posure where it will get as much sunlight as possible.

Just see your nearby Sinclair Dealer. He has Sinclair lubricants of the same quality used by the U. S. Army. To save wear on your engine, ask for Sinclair Opaline Motor Oil. Opaline stands up better and lasts longer because it is tie-waxed and de-jellied. Have your Sinclair Dealer drain and refill your crankcase with Opaline every 1.000 miles.

The agronomists suggest lha one level tablespoonful of s"ed b planted to each 100 square yard of bed. Where too many seed ur planted and thick stands are ob tained, the plants grow slende and are more susceptible to di sease.
