carefully by two men .who recorded
my age as five days old and my weight
as eight pounds. A metal tag was
put on my right ear, this signified
that I was a buck. Does have the
tag put in their left ear. My tag
read, "No. 7;i, Pisgah National For
est, 1938.' After filling out the card
that would tell my life history from
then on, the men named me 'Herb'
after someone they called the boss.
I was then taken to a small coop which
was located in a big enclosure called
the isolation ward. Here I found
many of my cousins in cages like
mine. They all seemed contented and
healthy. My cage seemed to be open
on all sides and I tried to escape,
here I had my first experience with
wire. I found that it was much
stronger than I and finally gave up
the struggle for the time being.
"I was left alone for sometime and

door. I later found that this noise
was caused by the steam used in
sterilizing our dinner. Soon the men
came out of the building carrying
crates of bottles, to each bottle was
attached a nipple. These men lifted
the lids on the eages and my cousins
would suck milk with gusto from the
nippled bottles. A man came to my

fine fawn and should have more than
two ounces of milk but that it might
not agree with me. 1 was put back
in my cage which was then covered
with canvas, this made the cage warm
and dry. During the night I was
fed again. I know now -'that all the
fawns are fo every six hours and
that our diet is canned evaporated

of water according to the particular

It was the first time a ciwie had

ward six days I was moved into a
run 20 feet by 15 feet and my diet
was increased to four ounces of milk
each feeding. This run had naming
water, a small shelter, and a great
deal of herbs on which 1 could browse.
The men in feeding would call me at
the gate of the run and I would has
ten up if 1 wasn't already at the gate
waiting for them. While in the run
way 1 was again weighed and was
surprised to find that 1 weighed six
teen pounds. The men were also
pleased and one said, 'Nice work,
Herb.'
"After 1 was in the run six days
and responded readily at feeding time
1 was turned out in the big lot which
had been planted with soy beans and
red clover. There is also an apple
orchard in this lot. Other fawns
were put in this lot with me and we
are all there now having a fine time.
"Feeding has been increased by a
diet of bran and crushed corn. I now j
receive a full quart of milk a day and
no longer feed at night. In fact, I j
am enjoying soy beans and the other j
browse so much that I am "losing my 1
taste for milk. I was weighed re-1
cently and weighed 24 pounds. In
two or three weeks I will lose my '

AAA Program Is
j Outlined By Floyd
i The agricultural conservation pro
jgram for 19,!i will be about the same
j as it is this year, K. Y. Floyd, AAA
(executive officer at State College, has
! announced.
Although plans for next ve.ii's uro
gram are subject to minor change, he
said, the fundamental objective will
be retained. These are: Conserving
the soil and assuring an adequate
production of farm commodities with
out piling up price-depressing sur
pluses. An added feature will be the estab
lishment of over-normal granaries to
absorb era in in vears of hivv vi.,l,l
and to provide grain for consumption!
in years 01 crop failure.
National allotments will be estab
lished for soil-depressing crops, and
these will be divided among the
states and then among the individual
growers.

on a basis of their allotment acreagx?
of depleting crops and on their acre
age of general crop land. If a grow
er complies with the program, he will
receive the full amont of his pay
ment. But deductions will be made
for over-planting his acreage of de
pleting crops or for failure to carry
out soil-building practices recommended.
The rate to be used in calculating a
grower's payment will be about the
same as this year, but the exact fig
ures cannot be determined until Con
gress makes the necessary appropria
tion. To encourage the production of
vegetables for home use, family gar
den areas will not be counted as soil
depleting acreage.
The program will be administered
by state, county, and community com
mittees, composed of farmers, who
will have the assistance of the Stato
College extension service and AAA
representatives.
Automobile manufacturers shut
down their plants for from 8 to 12
weeks this summer. They claim that
advance in labor costs and production
have been so great that it is out of
the question to lower the price of
cars and thus maintain the number of
units ordinarily produced.
