NEGLECTED CHICKENS PRODUCE FEWER EGGS Low egg production in hot weath er often causes poultrymen to neg lect their flocks with the result that production continues low in the fall when it should be increasing. Good management in hot weath er not only keeps birds in better condition for heavy production lat er, but it also keeps up production through the summer, said Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the poultry de partment at State College. Shade to protect birds from the sun during the hottest part of the day is essential to thrifty birds. A portable range shelter provides .shade where birds can feed and rest Since range crops usually become dry and unpalatable in summer, the . birds need an ample ration in their feed hoppers. Plenty of fresh wat er should be available at all times. Plenty of grain should be fed dur ing the developing season A good maah should be fed also as it con tains vital food elements that are not provided in a grain diet alone. Where crippled and subnormal birds are found in the flock, they should be culled out at once. Such birds never pay profit and their low vitality often makes them the starting point for an outbreak of contagious disease. Lice and mite infestations occur frequently in summer and result in heavy losses unless checked at once. Fowl pox can be prevented by vaccinating the birds at an early age. The disease usually breaks out in the fall when the birds are in full lay and making a profit for (their owner. Leghorns are especi ally susceptible to pox. IlgllgiliWinigilllgßlWSßlWßenWHlßCTlllUAl.JllLl IIIIUTtHTOT NEWS BRIEFS LIGHTNING STRIKES SELDOM ; Although it may seem to many 1 that this summer has had an unus ual number of deaths from light ning, statistics show that only one person out of 100,000 is killed by such a stroke. Even in Georgia, said to have more deaths from lightning than any other state, these figures hold. All the same, it is wiser to stay away from tall trees and metal fences during any storm or rain fall. AMERICAN LEGION CONVENES The American Legion convention is being held in Durham this week. The outstanding feature of the meeting was an address by Secre tary of War, Harry Woodring on Monday night. Because of heavy rain the address was delivered in the Armory instead of the stadium of Duke University, as had been arranged beforehand. The grand parade was marred by rain which drenched the marchers. One veter an suffered a stroke from the heat and was said to be in serious con dition. Contests for leaders in the department commandership are tak ing much time and thought of all delegatesi. Governor Hoey also addressed the Legionnaires during their meet ing. NEW RULER IN EGYPT For the first time in 400 years Egypt has an independent ruler. On Thursday King Farouk 1, 17 years old, ascended the throne. He was not crowned as are European monarchs, though many festivities attended the taking of the oath be fore Parliament in Cairo. British military occupation of Egypt has ended, though the country is still allied with Great Brtiain. Mrs. M. E. Shamburger and daughter, Betsy, arrived from Richmond on Tuesday to spend some time with the Pittman Stells. Mrs. Norman Screws has as her guest Miss Betty Roselle of Alba ny, N. Y. ' Thin week's State contains an excellent article on The Zebulon Supply Store and its manager, C. V. Whitley. CLIMATE; WEATHER; ETC. I An interesting article in Collier’s for July 31 discusses various prob lems confronting those who fore tell weather changes. The U. S. Weather Bureau was established in 1870. Mentioning that there are now more than 300 weather bureaus in the United States, the writer gives in detail their duties and responsibilities. He makes clear ttyfe distinction be tween climate, which is average weather through the ages; and weather, whi ch means conditions from day to day. For instance: If it is cold here in the winter months that is climate; if it snows, that is weather. (In some sections “fall ing weather” is used to mean rain, snow, or sleet.) It may surprise some to learn of the importance of the work of avia tors in the struggle with, climate and weather. Their explorations of the upper air have added material ly to scientific knowledge; while in turn, they are largely dependent upon weather reports for determin ing days and hours of departure from airports. In the stratosphere, a region above the atmosphere in the low er part of which we liye, there is no weather. The thermometer holds steady. But this is high above us. The atmosphere extends upward for from four to seven miles. WHY PEOPLE DROWN To prevent drownings one must study the causes of drowning. Gen- : erally speaking one who drowns suffocates from lack of oxygen.! Water may or may not enter the breathing aparatus, or be taken in- ! to the stomach. Swimmers must understand breathing since swimming requires that the individual be able to breathe despite considerable water pressure against the chest. Too ma ny people who swim spend more time learning strokes than breath ing, and breathing is the key to the situation. So it may be assumed that faulty breathing is not only the reason, why so many epople swim poorly, but is also the underlying reason so many lose their lives in the wa ter. They do not know how or wha«| to get air, or how to conserve it H the best advantage once they haM ■ Good swimmers take a gulp good air and immediately getting rid of it through both and mouth to be ready for the cycle of arm strokes. Inability get rid of the air is the cause of speedy fatigue and faulty arm ac tion, and is the reason many people go swimming and do not come back. So until these essentials of swim ming are mastered, swim by the dock, parallel to the shore, or ac companied by a boat. This does not indicate timitdity, but common sense; you have but one life to live, so make the most of it. Another type of drowning results from poor health or illness. You should feel fit when you go swim ming because every time you enter the water the heart must work harder: extra blood must be pump ed to the capillaries on the surface to combat the cold, the muscles need flood for swimming; the stom ach calls for it to complete the di gestion of the last meal, unless you have waited a couple of hours be fore entering the water. All these calls on the heart may be too se vere if it is not in good shape. If you must go in with the crowd 1 play around in the shallow water where you can get up and walk out i if you react queerly. Kep near some member of the party who could give you a hand. A swimming bud dy is always desirable for young and old. We are learning more about the physical effects of cold, especially of cold water. After prolonged ex posure to the sun the sudden tran sition into cold water may be dis astrous. It is wise to remain in the standing water until you get ad justed; avoid the dep channel. Night bathing parties, especially following indulgence in alcohol, are always dangerous. Many midnight, dips follow prolonged imbibing and the human mechanism can not re spond to the cold stimulus as it should. The whiskey manufacturers advise against driving a car or any other activity that requires judg ment and skill following a drink of whiskey. “Stay quietly at home and relax,” they say. Clearly £Tiey do not recommend swimming. Al cohol or even carbonated water and sea water do not mix. For campers we suggest that if they take moon light dips the entire group, regard less of swimming ability, confine itself to the elementary swimmers area and strictly adhere to the “buddy” plan of a partner for ev ery bather. 1 And last, and perhaps it should have been first, is the show-off drowner. He dies because he tries to show he has skill he does not pos sess. I say “he” in this case be cause ten white males drown for every female who drowns. Eleven hundred boys and young men be tween 15 and 19 years of age drown annually, to prove they are super ior to safety regulations. New York Fair .

Combs sold out his filling station in Zeb ulon to Willis Strickland and with his wife hied away to California, the tate of movies and money. But only yesterday he returned. C. R. says California is a mighty fine place for the fellow who has a good job and plenty of money, but as for the rest of the folks they had better stay at home. Mrs. M. E. Shamburger and daughter, Betsy, arrived from Rich mond Tuesday to spend some time i with the Pittman Stells.
