A, Oti** Sgfttioa Poajtry Spoc . - Mi>t Tdk?. ??' : ' ' Mr. A. Q. Oliver, State Extension Poultry Specialist spent the past week in the eounty with C. W. 'Til-j son, County Agent talking farm poul try as a cash crop. For 13 years Mr. Oliver hfS headed the poultry work in this state and has been advocat ing a brooder and 300 ehix followed by a laying bouse and 100 hens fed home grown grain on every farm for the past 13 y?ars. For 25 years Mr. Oliver has owned and operated a 7,-' 000 hen jjoultry farm in New Jersey \ and he happens ,to know something about poultry growing and marketing. To the farmers and farm women in 13 community pofiltry meetings last week Mr. Oliver advised strang ly the building of standard brooder houses and using good brooders with 300 chix started in Mareh and April in order to get a hundred pallet for a standard 20 x 24 laying house ail ready to lay high priced fall and winter eggs.. . 1 Mr. Oliver stated three outstanding facts in regard to feeding, housing, an), oat meal. According to grain prices in coun ty this chick growing feed costs less than $3.00 per hundred and cannot be beat by any feed on market . The mash for laying hens, 100 lb-:, corn meal; 100 lbs. ground oats (sit'i Jed); 100 lbs. ground wheat; 100 lb wheat bran or shorts; 100 lbs. fisli .meal; 10 lbs. charcoal. With a ;scratch feed made of corn 100 lbs.; f wheat 100 lbs.; oats 100 lbs.. Mr. Oliver says that our fanners must cooperate and sell all their poultry to their own cash carlot sales if they care to keep a market for their poultry. And he states that if our farmers want to go back to 13 and 14 cents per lb. for hens and 25 cents a head for cox to just sell their poultry other than to the car and the car will soon stop coming so they can sell the old way for about half price. | Halifax is one of the poultry coun ties with 10 to 12 thousand hens air purebred stock that lay standard eggs. Mr. Oliver came straight from Halifax county to Jackson and to' ! our farmers if we had three* time? as many purebred flocks as we nov have we could take one of his con tracts now being fille^ by Halifa* and many other counties for 45 cents a dozen for eggs the year round Our handicap now is we haven't one J half the flocks we need to start with grading and shipping eggs on a year round contract. We hope to get enough flocks in Jackson to start that by next year. And the mixed mongrel flocks eggs will not sell on a graded epg market, so if any farm er caresi to get a real price for eggs I he better start now to growing pure bred poultry the right way. I AGRICULTURAL PROGRAM BET TER BALANCED THIS YEAR The 1927 agricultural production program as indicated by reports from farmers appears to be in fairly good balance as among crops and livestock although weather conditions will bo a decisive factor, says the Bureau of. Agricultural Economics, United States Department of Agriculture in its April 1 report on the agricul tural situation. , The production season is reported jas fully two weeks early, with fro.st out of the ground and spring work coming into full swing ever most of the country. Storms in the North have kept lnnd from drying in some localities but a goo(j share of early grain is sown and fields arc being fitted for later crops. Farly crops and general field work in the South arc reported as "mark edly advanced, the Southwest, espec ially, presenting d very promising picture as to grains and forage crops. Fruit is unusually advanced almost everywhere, although there is still a considerable frost hazard th:u month for fruits and tender tructt crops." Reports from fanners show an in tention to shift acreages of crops rather than make any substantial ad justment in the Cotton Belt, for ex ample, is indicated by a planned increase of about 6,000,000 acres in feed and food crops. The North and West are planning about a 3,000,000 increase in their principal crops, which would little more than replace acreage lost by drought in the Great Plains last year. \ 1 "If conservatism is to be recom mended on any part of this intended program," says the bureau, "it should probably apply at least to the cash crops, especially potatoes. The intended potato acreage, with aver age yields, would produce some 410, 000,000 bushels, or near a recorj crop which would be a sharp increase over the crops of the last two years. "The country is going into the new season without carrying burden some stocks. March reports showed only about 14,000,000 bushels more potatoes stored than a year ago. There are around 380,000,000 bushels less of feed grains on hand than last year. Even the carryover of cotton will be much less than was thought probable a few months ago." ? ' The tendency to expand potatd acreage is reported to be particularly marked in the Cotton Belt, in Mich igan and Minnesota, and in the West ern States. Increases in Virginia an,} in the Cotton States except Florida and Texas seem to be mostly out side the commercial areas. There is marked tendency to increase acreage in both the commercial and noncom O AMS' SALV JL O L PNEUMONIA, COLDS ' CROUP, INFLUENZA, HEADACHE | Ask 1 our Dealer or Write Caldwell Medicine Go.
