S. Dears- I tyrie, head of the poultry department ; at State college. "This is a danger i ous practice to get into and will 1 produce detrimental results that will be reflected all through the laying period. Breeders carried over from the previous year may go into a molt and improper feeding will tend to prolong this period and retard pro-1 Suction." A falling off in receipts should not mean a let down in the care of the birds, he says. Lice and mites must be guarded against as these pests propogate very rapidly during the summer and are a heavy drain on chick vitality. Round worms and tape worms are also to be guarded against and Mr. Dearstyne advises that all pullets be dewormed about a month before they come into lay. This allows time for the bird to throw off any bad effects that 'might re sult frcm the treatment. Mr. Dearstyne says that adequate drinking fountains, plenty of fresh water, and summer shade are neces sary essentials in the care of the flock i Heat prostrations are caused by a lack of these essentials, by an in adequate number of trapnests of overcrowding; (This condition can be overcome by strict attention to these details by the poultry owner. Green feed should aiso be pro vided for the flock, but where this is not available, the ration may be supplemented wiih a ione percent biologically tested cod liver oil. Mr. , Dearstyne states that under no cir- : cumstances should tfhe poultrymen ciiscontinue the feeding of mash as Lhis balances the ration and furn ishes the feed so necessary for high production. County Gets Large Sum From State Rutherford county will get. $17,- 8i0.22 from the State Tax Equaliza tion Fund for the 1930-31 school term. Last year the county got $16,569,85 from this same fund for the eight months schools. This is from a $1,250,000 found given by the state to help reduce the local school burden. Cleveland will get $19,682.36 this year as compared to $18,234.88 last year while Polk will get $8,232.32 as against $7,622.77 last year.

Accord ; ing to the budget as tentatively out - lined a month ago the rate was ; $1 83 per SIOO.OO property valua tion. The rate as first tentatively I set was cut eight cents. Since a re [ auction of over $36,000 must be • made in the budget before a levy i of one cent on the SIOO.OO property ; valuation can be effected, it will be seen that the commissioners cut out over $292,000 out of next year's budget, as originally outlined. The commissioners desired a further re duction but it could not be effected and comply with the law.. The divisions of the $1.75 rate is as follows: County General Fund, 15c Road Fund 23 Y2C, Poor Fund, 4c, County Debt Service, 13 V2C, Current Ex pense School Fund, $1.02, Captal Outlay School Fund 2c, School Debt Service 15c.

FALL ARMY WORM MENACE TO CROPS Heavy grass in the garden or field crop is an icfeal feeding place for the fall army worm but almost any growing crop will be attacked and destroyed by this pest. "Ordinarily the fall army worm is controlled by the natural enemies but these enemies have not developed this year and indications are that the pest will be very destructive," says Dr. Z. P. Metcalf, entomolo gist at State college. "While the worm feeds principally on grass it will attack all of the common gar den and truck crops and such field crops as cotton, tobacco, corn, clover, alfalfa, ccwpeas, and soybeans. It is apt to be very destructive to soy beans and cowpeas at this season of the year as these crops are full of grass and furnish an attractive place lor the insects to develop." > According to Dr. Metcalf, the pests may be controlled by using either powdered arsenate of lead or a poison bait. The arsenate of lead is used in the pure state if a good dusting machine is available or mix ed at the rate of one pound of lead to four pounds of hydrated lime if used without the dusting machine. The amount to use with the differ ent crops will vary but an applica tion should be made sufficient, to cov er all leaves with a thin film of the poison. The application should be made at night when there is mois ture on the plants. The poison bait can be made by mixing 25 pounds of bran and one | Comes Back Strong After the World War, John G. ■ *r utz HlO Waverly Ave., in San j 'Antonio, came back home with a ♦ stomach which kept him in misery.
