Will Discuss New Project At Highlands The new Highlands Metho dist church building, still under construction, was designated by Bishop Costen J. Harrell at the annual Methodist conference in September as the first ranking "advance spscial" of Western North Carolina Methodism this year. And at the Methodist set-up meeting here today, the Rev. W. Jackson Huneycutt, Waynesville district superintendent, will ex plain conference plans, and or ganize the district to make the Highlands project the recipient of special home missionary work this year. Since special emphasis Is be ing placed on the Highlands project, the church pastor, the Rev. Robert E. Early, prepared the following" report on prog ress thus far: "The Highlands Methodist church has come to the fore front of the conference build ing program because it has been deemed 'pivotal' and 'stra tegic' by the bishop. "The Highlands work has been carried on since 1914 in a one-room church on an other wise most desirable location on the town's main street. How ever, beginning with Dr. Har rell's first vis't to the church in August, 1950, definite plans were made and work started for the construction of a com plete and attractive building on the old site, in order that its program of worship and Chris tain activity, as well as the edi fice itself, could speak ade quately for the whole church In the Highlands resort area, where visitors converge by the thousands during the summer season. "The local congregation and its friends have responded be yond the call of duty with gifts and pledges, with donations of labor, equipment, and materials. But the total project, rising far above local importance, now, rightfully, is being made this year's first cause among the Western North Carolina Metho dists. * "On October 1, both the re " " "n Favors Two Chick Brood* Each Season Starting two or more broods of chicks at different seasons will enable poultrymen to main tain a constant year-round sup ply of eggs for their customers, says Thomas B. Morris, exten sion poultry specialist at State college. Most poultrymen, Mr. Morris explains, can't maintain a good year-round supply of e?gs be cause they flirt only on? brood of chicks, usually In February, March, and April. These pullets come into production about six months later, lay well for about eight to 10 months (or until May of the following year), and then it is difficult to get 56 per cent or higher production without heavy culling. Under the one-brood systefti, the volume of eggs Is below normal for about two to four months during the year. Itat poultrymen who start Mro broods at different times are able to maintain a steady sop pi y of eggs throughout the year. Research at State college, says Mr. Morris, indicates that the best 'time to start the sec ond bropd for a laying flock is in October. Chicks hatched OctoberilO, 1949, came into pro ductiontthe latter part of March and av#aged 73.8 per cent pro ductions for each of the five months! of April, May, June, t July, fhd August. Production would -have been even higher If some of the birds had been culled, but the "loafers" were kept because their livablllty was being /checked. Besides the high rate of lay, the birds hatched in off-seaaon produced eggs whose shell tex ture and interior were better than-Jthose of old hens that had jjpen laying for eight or 10 mox^H. In addition, the hatch abilBjr of theifc eggs set during Jun*, July, and August was 80.5 Public Health Educator Named For Thia Area Miss Phillippa Kandel, of Savannah, Oa., has accepted the position of public health educator for Macon, ~ Jackson, and Swain counties.
