Motor Company announced here today
that more than 1.300.000 -of the hew
six cylinder; Chevrolet cars! have been
placed en the road since th? flrst of
<f the year.
This achievement accomplished In
the best showing of any other manu
facturer of six cylinder cars In a cal
endar year- and tops Chevrolet's je
ccrd total for the entire year of 1928.
It Is now certain that six cylinder
Tl'oductlon Hill set a world record
thh yaar. surpassing for the first time
in the history of the industry the out
put of four cylinder cars. This lead
????hip nt th? ?Itws will come about
chiefly because of Chevrolet's record
showing thl* year.
Chevrolet factory officials declare
that the dominating reason back of
the leadership of the six is the pub
? '!u pieference for me advantages which
This type of construction affords. They
point out too that the influence of
great volume production, which has
enabled the Industry to get six cylin
der prices down to the lowest on re
cord and has made it possible for
Chevrolet tttrough maximum volume
to offer six cylinder performance at a
price that formerly bought only a four.
?With the new yearly record already
assured. Chevrolet factories are con
tinuing on the biggest Fall produc
tion program ever undertaker* by the
company. Nine assembly plants and
Feven large manufacturing plants are
facing the busiest final quarter that
Chevrolet has ever known.
'The heavy Pall factory program
was made necessary. It was explained,
to bring production up to the level of
the demand and make possible quick
er deliveries to owners.

will finally be developed a spirit of

nafhuWtn "nrnflt.s in the poultry in
dustry.
1 "The cbject of this development is
: to have pullets of stamina, bone and
vigor and fully up to the standard
Height of the breed." says R S. Dcar
stytie. poultryman at State College,
i "At first thp proper mashes arc need
ed until finally the laving mash con
taining 2 per cent of protein is given.
;The young pullets must have an abun
dance of succulent green feed espe
cially as the grass on the range gets
L.
old and tough. When placing birds'
in the laying house do this about _t_wo_
weeks^ befottlhey-start Tiyln^So^ that ;
They may become accustomed to their
surroundings. - The house should be
made ready for occupancy, however, i
before the birds are brought In."
This means new nesting material,
runs cleared of litter^ ' perch poles
scraped and freed of mites and the
birds examined for Internal parasites.
A minimum of four fe?t of. floor Space
to each bird Is needed In the house:
and at least two feet of--perch pole for
each three birds. Dampness in the |
house and damp litter Is to be avoided
If the birds are not to have roup and
colds. Fresh, clean water Is necessary
and the mash hoppers are to be kept
i filled at a(l times. Oyster shell and
grit needs'to be kept before the birds
and grain fed ' twice "each day with
the heaviest amount at evening. ~ j
Mr., Dearstyne says that the poul
; tryman will do well to spend about
ten minutes each day In general ob
I servation of his flock. Shis will help
I him to find any lack of thrlftlness or
[ any indication of disease. Birds
I roughly handled, irregularly fed and
I watered, infested with parasites or
neglected In other ways will not prove
! profitable.
