These va rious items of expense all vary with different farms and make it difficult to calculate costs. However the feed cost of a dozen eggs can be very closely approximat ed. And this cost varies, perhaps more than one would realize. look at a few of the calculated costs, Mrs. W. O. Rector produced eggs at the lowest feed cost. According to her figures her chickens produced eggs for 6.85 cents per dozen. One reason for the low cost of these eggs was that a portion of the feed was produced at a bargain. Mrs. Jeter Bryan produced eggs for 10.36 cents per dozen; Mrs. Crawford Bryan's record shows that eggs cost, for the feed, 11 cents per rdozen. Mrs. Dennis produced eggs for 12.6 cents per dozen. Mrs. T. A. Woody's records show that her eggs cost her 17 cents per dozen. But these figures do not show it all. The condition of the hens, some Miing inai is important, is not tola. Are the hens being kept in condition to continue to produce eggs all sum mer and well into the fall? This is important. If feed is being with held and the hens are losing flesh, future results may tell a different story. Time will tell. Mr. Thelmer Waldroup called on , Miss Mae Finley Sunday. Mr. C. W.

Ed Eng lish has been using this method of feeding livestock with very good suc cess. Mr. English gets ready for this success from the start. He sows his grass seed liberally, depending upon orchard grass chiefly for he finds it best. He uses orchard grass seed at the rate of about 2 bushels to the acre, mixing in with it red top. He lets this grow all the sum mer. The first of last November, Mr. English had 75 acres of such grass which was from about 10 inches to bors can do the job and that he is immune from aiding. We hear much about federal legis lation to help the farmer. It has been our opinion that the largest aid to the farmers will come thru them selves. It is- altogether probable that any legislation that helps the farmer wMl heln mnJaf ocncxWioll.r those farmers who are nrni, i, campaign does not are in position to receive the 'hpln November, 1930. It is almost, if not entirely, impos sible for the government to help each individual farmer in a country as large sa the United States. Madison County farmers should prepare to receive any aid that may be offered. They can take a big step in this di rection by offering to help with the proposed warehouse. j Miss Dorothy and brother Jesse Mrs. Sarah Porter Ellis, District 'were guests at the home of Mr and 3.
