DIET OFTEN CAUSE OF
THIN SHELLED EGGS
The production of thin shelled
eggs during the summer can not
be corrected by causing hens to
consume more oyster shell or some
other form of lime, says Roy S.
Dearstyne, head of the poultry
department at N. C. State College.
He points out that, in most
cases, the birds have been laying
for a long period of time and have
exhausted their body reserves.
Thin shelled eggs may usually be
regarded as an index that the bird
is about to complete her laying
period and this fact should be
valuable as a culling guide.
Dearstyne says that egg shells
are chiefly calcium but are formed
when calcium, phosphorous and
possibly other minerals are broken
down in the process of digestion.
Research study also reveals that
certain levels of vitamin D are
necessary in preparing the min
erals for bone and egg shell forma
tion.
Stockmen are warned to be on
the watch for screwworm flies
since several outbreaks occured in
the Southeast during July.

VICTORY IS
OF GOD
God alone can give us victory over our
enemies, bring our boys home, and give us
a righteous enduring peace.
Let us, as a nation turn back to the God
of our fathers and seek His forgiveness for
profaning the Name of God, for our neglect
of the Word of God, the House of God, and
the Day of God; and for our failure to be
lieve in and receive the Son of God, the Lord
Jesus Christ, as our own personal Savior
and Lord, and for not telling others who do
not know Him. God has said: “Seek ye the
Lord while He may be found, call ye upon
Him while He is near.” Isaiah 55:6.
