Poultry School
Will Be Held
Here The 22nd
Eleven Western Counties Par
ticipating In School Con
ducted By State Ex
tension Service
There will be a one-day district
poultry short course held on Mon
day the 22nd, wth the following:
counties participating-: Cherokee,
Clay, Graham, Macon, Swain, Jack
son, Yancey, Transylvania, Bun
combe, and Madison.
The school is part of a poultry
program being sponsored by the
North Carolina Agricultural Ex
tension tervice. There will be
twelve such schools held over the
state.
An interesting educational pro
gram is being planned, including"
talk', demonstrations and pictures.
According to the state authorities
the output of baby chicks in North
Carolina is rapidly increasing each
year and such an increase natur
ally results in a more plentiful sup
ply of broilers and fryers.
While the broilers and fryers
markets are low at the present
time, it is expected that the demand
will become strong again at the
first sign of spring. The demand
is always weaker on this type of
meat ironi November until early
spring due to competition of other
meats, principally fresh pork,
nens and turkeys, according to
the state authorities.
Considerable income- is received
by the farmers of the mountain
counties from poultry and eggs.
According to some of the leading
poultry and egg distributors, large
quantities of these products are
shipped into Western North Car
olina to supply the local trade,
There are many natural advantages
in the mountain counties for poultry-raising,
and it ia felt that w
farmers should increase their
poultry flock, to at least sunn v
the local trade and thus increase
the farm income.
The following program has been
planned for the meeting here on
the 22nd: 9:45, "Utilizing our
flocks and equipment more fully,"
by C. F. Parrish, extension poul
tryman; "A breeding program for
all Western North Carolina farm
ers," by Dr. C. H. Bosbain; "Bet
ter feeding and sanitation as an
aid in Controlling poultry products,"
y T. T. Brown.

Sermon Text: Eph. 6:17, "And
take the helmet of salvation, and
the sword of the spirit, which is
the word of God."
The Bible has been rightly call
ed "The Book of the ages." It
has been tried and tested by time.
Generations have lived and
wrought on the stage of action,

What does your Bible mean to
you? Is it God's Holy word, or is
it just another book? Have you
found its raessaere for vou? Its
plan for your life? How much of
its teachings do you recall? How
many of its principles do you prac
tice in your daily life? Is it your
guidebook along the way of life?
There are four interesting facts
i abolit this Book which are worthy
of our most serious consideration:
Fir.-t, the Bible is the source of
cleansing and salvation from sin.
The message of this Book will burn

Secondly, the Bible is the source
of protection and security. It is
our weapon of defense against
temptations. ' Jesus used it in the
wilderness against Satan. He
used it to silence Hia critics. The
Psalmist f Desks of the Bible as
"a lamp to hi feet, and a light

Fourthly, the Bible is the source

not live by bread alone, but bv

the mouth of God. As newborn

These fundamental truths ought
to bring fresh assurances to our
hearts, and help U3 in this day of
chaos and confusion to center our
minds upon a serious study of the
Bible, May we find, as Peter .lid

Editor's note Miss Mary Mar
garet Smith, home demonstration
agents, recommends the following
article to all homemakers. It war.
written by P. A. Anderson, of the!
University of Minnesota: '
Good lard has no peer for use
in cooking and preparing food.
When cutting up the fat, the
meat rind may be left on if it is
clear, clean, and free from bruises.
Otherwise, the rind should be re
moved. The fat may be cut into
cubes not longer than one-inch
square, or run through the food
chopper if there is extra time for
this process. The latter method!
will get a little more lard out of
the fat. Under general farm con
ditions, intestinal fat should not
be usd with leaf and back fat.
It is important to render the
fat as soon as possible after the
carcass has been cut up. While
waiting to render it, however, don't
neap it in containers to a
greater than 12 inches for tk.
heat which is generated may cause
cnanges tnat mean success or fail
ure in the finished product.
Fat may be rendered in shallow
pans on top of the stove or in the
oven, or in suitable kettles on top
of the stove. Start out with low
heat and increase it later, advises
Anderson. When the cracklings
come to the surface and are a light
chestnut brown, the fat has been
rendered sufficiently, A little salt
sprinkled on top of the cHekhngs
will settle them to the bottom.

North Carolina's increasing
population of good quality beef
cattle has brought a warning from
Earl H. Hosteller, professor of
animal husbandry at State College,
that profitable production de
pends upon a balanced feeding
program.
Ample feed can be provided in
North Carolina and throue-hout
the South from May until Decem
ber or January through the Ui of
pastures and field gleaninira. H nw-
ever, too many farmers leave their
weaned calves and cows that are
i ... .
lu iiesueu uie next spring to
sfcift for themselves during the
winter months. Such a practice
results in stunted yearlings and
heavy cow and calf losses before
grass is ready for grating the
following spring.
Much of the available winter
feed, such as corn and soybean
field gleanings, corn silage, corn
stover, cottonseed hulb', and grass
hay, is low in protein and miner
als. However, Hosteller explained
it la essential that growintr and
pregnant animals be supplied with
these two essentials.
A good mineral mixture
posed of equal parts of finely
ground limestone (or oyster shell
flour), steamed bone mejif nH
salt will give satisfactory results
if kept before the animals at all
times;
Protein can usually be supplied
most economically by furnishing
feed that has a high protein con
tent, such as cottonseed cake or
meal, soybean oil meal, or peanut
oil meal. When one of these
feeds is fed alone rather than
with some carrier such as cotton
seed hulls or corn silage, it will
be more economical to feed cakes
or pellets instead of meal
If a Part of the ration should
consist of good legume hay, the
required amount of cottonseed
cake or similar feed may be reduc
ed. However, young growing ani-l
mala or cows in calf hm,lH k
one to pound daily to facilitate
growth.
