Poultry Inventory Seen As Necessity; Inventories, highly important to the* j business man, get little attention j from the average farmer. In the poutry industry this glaring; failure of bringing facts and figures j ip to date is especially true, says Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the State, College poultry department. Perhaps, he declares, the fact that j practically all farms maintain some! poultry is responsible for this condi- j tion, as in North Carolina the small j flock predominates and is only one ! cog in the wheel of diversification. Another cause, he says, may be due to difference and lack of under standing on the part of the owner as .0 the potential possibilities of poul try as a profit-making venture. A great majority of the State’s ] poultrymen keep no books on their i costs and production, Dearstyne points out. Consequently, they know Mttle or nothing of their business. j Quite often the grower deceives; himself into believing that he can carry the detail of twelve months' work in his head, the State Collo-- -1 poultryman declares. However, such mental prodigies are few and far be tween. "Perhaps they are not aware,” Dearstyne says, “that the State Col lege Extension Service has available for them a book-keeping service which is rendered without cost and takes the question mark out of the Yffmwm To come in and get our X 6-Point Money-Saving X IT’S FREE! 4Smkl •Regardless of the make of battery in your car, we’ll gladly give It our Wi V* f\▼> / / ▼ 6-Point Check-Up to keep it fit. /I t ' / y W And remember; there’s no better T \ / way to save battery trouble and I expense than to have us give you J ▼ this service ngularfy.

Such factors include proper housing facilities, breeding practices, feeding, and dis ease prevention. Two Bootleggers Get Off With $25 Fines Two more defendants appeared in | Recorder’s Court Tuesday morning las the result of the drive by local | officers against bootlegging. The two ; men were Lee and Russell Cox, cct | ored, each of whom was found guilty |of possession of bootleg liquor. The two were arrested in the home of Lee ! Cox on East Church Street, when officers seized a pint bottle full of ! bootleg liquor, as well as a gallon jug ! and fruit jar containing some of the liquor. There was no criminal record against either of the two men and in | view of this fact, Judge J. N. Pruden ; was lenient with his sentence, whicli | in each case, was six months in jail, I to be suspended upon the payment of $25 and costs, as well as showing ■ good behavior for two years. On the latter condition Judge Pruden warned the prisoners, “If you get in any trouble within that time you will have to go to the roads. Stop mess ing with bootleg liquor. If you want ] whiskey, buy it from the ABC store.” i The trial of Joe Habit on the charge of attempting to bribe an officer in connection with his recent ; arrest on several liquor counts was postponed until next Tuesday due to the absence from the city of his at : torney, John F. White. DR. WILSON ILL I The many friends of Dr. Brick house Wilson, of Independence, Mo., will regret to hear that he suffered another heart attack last week and is desperately ill.

I REPUBLICAN I Bertie County I By Walter Hughes v 1 I see they are trying to pass a law to give SIO,OOO, when a man is lynch ed, to his people. When a man does a deed bad enough to be lynched, give the money to the man who lynched him. I’ve heard this story told many a tints by quail hunters: That he shot a hole through the bushes, and with the second barrel killed the quail through the same hole. But I saw it done the. other day. Harry Zobel and myself were hunting on the Albe marle Sound in a pine thicket. The dogn stood a quail, and when the quail came up it (lew behind a bushy sapling. Mr. Zobel shot through the sapling, cut a limb off which dropped down. Mr. Zobel saw the quail through the hole and threw the other barrel at it. The quail bid farewell to the historic Albemarle. From the precinct of Raleigh last week came some fox hunters with 61 hounds.. They hunted around Repub lican. They said their hounds would catch the fox. I told them that there were so many they would run their dogs to death, and they found it like , I had told them. Tire dogs ran al right, but no catch. So they are , coming back this week again. > ————— . A fellow went turkey hunting last . week. He scattered some turkeys: j He made himself a blind, and once in a while he would call. He heard . nothing, so he dropped to sleep. A rustle woke him up and a big old gobbler was setting on the edge of the blind within a foot of him. The turkey made a break and kicked a! I little hole in the man’s face which hurt him right bad. | CROSS ROADS 1 V / 1 Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Leary spent the week-end in Washington, N. C., with Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Welch, Jr. ! J. C.
