(By L. F. BRL'MFIELD, County Agt: E: S: STOKES, Asst: Act:
A two story modern poultry
house has been completed by C.
B. Hall of Quaker Gap community.
He has about 2,000 high bred Bar- !
red Rocks and New Hampshire
Reds in the modern hennry. It is
ventilated from both sides. A feed
room on first floor and storage
celler for eggs.
There is also another two story ,
poultry house on the Hall chicken
farm. The entire flock is culled,
tested for disease, fed a balanced
ration and cared for in the most
up-to-date way. Other farmers
having modern two story poultry
houses are R. S. Redding, L. C.
Slate, Joe Johnson, B. P. Bailey
and R. S- Robertson.
W. C. White, Walnut Cove, has
opened his silo and started feed
ing silage to his cows. He states
the cows are doing fine on the
canned corn. .They«have already
-Unproved in For
milk cows, silage can't be beat!
A fine hay mixture may be had
by mixing together 1 1-2 bushels
of oats, 1 bushel barley, and 1
peck of wheat, 15 pounds winter
peas and 15 pounds vetch. For
best results, sow this mixture soon
as possible.
Milk prices are still going up
and so are feed prices. Silage is
a good milk producing feed. It will
aid in cutting feed cost. If you
have some corn which iB still
pratically green, store it as silage
and feed it to your cows. A trench
or box silo can be btflt for a few
dollars and may be made in a
couple of dayß.
T. F. Calloway, King, has pur
chased from Cox's Dairy, a fine
registered Gurnsey bull calf.
t» ■ i.
During the past week and this
week, 4-H club members in the
county have been busy fitting
their pigs and calves for the 4-H
Pig and Calf show. The animals
will be exhibited at Hylton's Trad
ing Stable in Walnut Cove from
10 a. nr. until evening on Satur
day, October 4. Poland China gilts
and Gurnsey and Jersey Ualfers
will be sbowft. Of coarse, not all
«f the animals in the county will
be shown but some excellent ani
mals will be exhibited. If you have i
a heifar we hope that yon will :
boost lfeestock in Stokes county 1
by bringing out your animals and 
let your neighbors see what you i
have. It is a good way to adver
tise —"A lighted candle aannot 1
send forth its rays if put under a '
bushel."
Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Wall and 1
Mrs. R. R). Kink accompanied

Aid to Britian, Russia
The Navy Department announc
ed 15 British and Free French
warships currently in Uniteu
States ports, and said 12 others
already have left U. S. ports
where they had put in for repairs
or supplies. The War Department
said 59 officers and enlisted men
of the British armored corps are
studying American methods at
the Army Armored Force School
at Fort Knox, Ky. Treasury Sec-
Morgenthau announced the
Soviet Government has already
repaid in gold "a little more than
half" of the $10,000,000 advanced
by the U. S. Treasury to Russia
in August.
Production
Assistant Attorney General Ar
nold, speaking at Yosemite, Calir.,
said "there is not an organized
basic industry in the U. S. which
has notbeen restricting product
ion... to avoid what they fear
may be ruinous overproduction
after the war...they have con
cealed shortages by overoptimis
tic predictions about supplies."
Mr. Arnold also said "a few
strategically located labor unions"
were costing the American con
sumer one billion dollars a year
through labor restrictions on pro
duction by strikes and boycotts
for illegitimate purposes, price
fixing, restricting labor-saving de
vices, elimination of small com
petitors and owner operators and
"tying up huge industries in the
struggle to determine which of
two unions shall dominate the
ield."
Small Business
Director Odium of the OPM
Contract Distribution Division
announced between "100 and 200
offices to help small shops and

said.
Mr. Odium asked 56 major de*
fense contractors to appoint
"farming out" directors to cooper
ate in spreading defense work
among smaller firms. He also an*
nounced defense contracts with
aluminium war companies forced
to abandon civilian production by
shortages and .priorities. Con*
tracts such as these to avoid com*
munity hardship can be negotiat*
ed Up 15 percent above min'mum
prices, performance bonds can be
waived and bid splits allowed ta
enable pools of small firms to ob
tain contracts for "bits and
pieces." •
Army Prepardness Statu
Assistant War Secretary Mc
cl°y, speaking in Jackson, Mich.,
said the U. S. has an army and
an air force" in the sence that one
is in process of production... some
of its elements are prepared to
meet any foe...yet that army is
just becoming an army..."
He said the army has its full
