Answer: In all probability the birds showing this trouble have croup which is very prevalent at this time of the year. Where only a few birds show signs of the -disease, the best control is to dispose of the affected birds, clean up and disinfect the poultry house and give the entire flock one dose of Epsom salts at the rate of three-quarters of a pound of salts to each two and Vi gallons of water. Check the feeding schedule and see that the flock is getting a good ration. Do not overcrowd the birds and keep them free of external and internal parasites. With these precautions, the trouble will soon disappear. Question: Has tobacco prices 1 this year equalled the established parity prices? Answer: Yes the parity, or fair-exchange value of tobacco was established at 18.4 cents a pound for flue-cured tobacco this year. Figures recently released from Washington show that farmers received an average price of 22.8 cents a pound for all ' tobacco of this type sold up to October 15. As much of the better grades have been sold since that date it is probably that the difference between parity and the actual price received will be greater than the figures given. Question: What is the best location for a trench silo? Answer: In locating a trench silo the three most important things to consider are: drainage, soil, and convenience. It is therefore best to dig the silo on a slope or hillside. This allows all surface water to rpn away from rather than into the trench. A stiff clay soil is best as this prevents caving and also lessens the cost as the side walls will not have to be lined. If possible the silo should be located near the barn. However, if the drain. age and soil is r.ot right then convenience must be sacrificed ; for cheapness in construction. Shallotte News (By Mrs. J. A.

Miss Bissell promptly adopted the idea and in that year raised $3,000. From then on the Christmas Seal rapidly became a nation-wide enterprise, and since 1910 has been under the management of the National Tuberculosis Association. Since 1919 the seal, in addition ] to an attractive design appropri- j ate to the Christmas season, has { always borne the double-barred cross, which is the emblem of the tuberculosis movement. These tiny seals, sold for one cent each, have made possible an organized campaign against tuberculosis that has been carried on with ever increasing emphasis year after year. They stand for something more, for they are health seals, since whatever helps to prevent tuberculosis makes for health. The accumulated pennies provide tuberculosis nurses for a vast number of communities, clinics supervised by specialists in chest diseases, and promote open(he smartness TII he Ford?but I ll WHAT OP if%i( E fo vantag s pactnc Ford 1 V-8 in letts Mot Bolivia, Noi WEDNE air schools and preventoria.

To thousands of afflicted people tnere nas been borne the news that the disease is curable if recognized early enough and given adequate treatment.
