a host of friends gathered on the
porch all wishing her "many happy

them into the house and in her ever

to arrange for chairs to make her
guests comfortable. They made Mrs.

the dining room and arranged the
dinner on the two tables and then
invited Mrs. Jones and her friends
out to eat. A good old fashioned
"talk fest." of "hard times, good
times, sad times and glad times" was
held during the dinner, but all went
away wishing for Mrs. Jones health,
wealth and happiness and many re
turns of the day. This was one time
"Uncle Newt" was in the back

Fatten Early Broilers
For Poultry Market
Because there are fewer pounds
of frozen poultry in cold storage at
this time as compared with one year
ago or with the five-year average,
it may be well this spring to fatten
baby chicks into fryers and broilers
for early sale.
P. A. 'Seese, extension foultjpy
man at State college, finds that the
sale of poultry meats from the av
erage farm represents only 27.7 per
cent of the total sales of poultry and
poultry products. The remaining 72.3
percent conies from the sale of eggs.
This was due, he explains, to the
low price of all poultry meats last
year, especially old hens, late dry
ers and broilers. Few of these were
sold and the income from these sour
ces was rather low, comparatively.
However, there is about thirty-six
million pounds less of poultry meats
now in storage than there was one
year ago in January. This means
that the demand will likely get bet
ter, especially if there is some im
provement business conditions.
For that reason, he advocates the
purchase and growing of baby chicks
for fattening.
Only chicks from - blood-tested
flocks should be bought. Usually the
loss from these is less than ten per
cent. They have a high liyability as
compared with chicks from non-test
ed flocks and if a grower can mar
ket 90 percent of his chicks as
broilers he can unquestionably put
them on the market at a cost not
to exceed twenty cents a pound and
will make money. The present low
prices for feedstuffs and the increase
of feed material on most farms of
the State at this time, should make
poultry fattening a right remunera
tive enterprise, thinks Mr. Seese.
! Then, too, the cash from the sale
of fryers and broilers is received at
a time which it can be used to good
advantage in the farm work.
The Marion Knitting mill is begin
ning to build a large addition to its
present plant, taking advantage of
opportunity for cheap labor.
ARREST MAN HERE
ON STABBING CHARGE
! Claude Miller, young white man,
formerly a resident of this county,

ed with stabbing a man in Shelby

ler's arrest. He was taken to the
j Rutherfordton jail Wednesday after
'l nooji.
