Farm Questions
and Answers
Question: What type of brooders
is best for North Carolina conditions?-
'
Answer: Brooders have been de
vised to meet all situations from
where only 40 to 50 are brooded
with a lamp brooder to where many
hundred are brooded with a hot
water system. The source of heat
may be wood, coal, kerozene, fuel
oil, or electricty. The type of
brooder to select will depend upon
economy of operation, availability
of fuel, and the cost of fuel. Prac
tically all types of brooders have
been tested and found satisfactory
for North Carolina conditions.

Leaders of the Civilian Defense
Council of Haywood are all keyed
up over their jobs, and are seeking
volunteers to put the program
across in Haywood.
Last Friday at Rotary, a repre
sentative group of the leaders told
of the work, and plans for carry
ing on the wide-spread campaign
which is underway.
Wayne Corpening, temporary
chairman of the council, explained
details of the campaign and re
quested more volunteers. He in
troduced J. H. Howell, captain oi
the local unit of the state guard.
who highly praised his men for
their interest and co-operation.
"I have never seen a personnel
to equal this company," the cap
tain said, as he explained there
were 40 companies in the state, and
that it was a volunteer matter,
with the men serving without pay,
but every man is doing his bit for
his country, he- continued.
Speaking of strikes and riots, the
captain said: "I pity any man who
has to go up against this state
guard when they are on mob duty."
"I told the governor I would
help organize the local company
and then step down and let some
one else carry on. I have gotten
so much kick and support, I can't
quit itow.
Robert Millar, who is charge of
the air raid observations, pointed
out that Haywood was lacking in
volunteers, and that 48 men wure
needed to give an hour a day to the
cause. These volunteers must be
trained now.: Trained as to the
duties, and hope to cope with the
situation.
Mrs. Henry Francis, represent
ing the women s division, pointed
out the success the women had had
in getting more gardens grown and
more food canned. Before the
campaign, 5 families canned 515
jars of food. This year the same
families canned 1,312 cans.
The program for the year, Mrs.
Francis said, will carry out the
general theme of "Thrift and health
for better living."
Major General Harley B. Fergu
son, a guest of the club, spoke
briefly on the international situa
tion, stating that it was his belief
that America should have whipped
Japan last fall, and that would
have released Russian soldiers for
the eastern front, and many ships
of both American and English nav
ies for Atlantic duty.
Bobby ,Colkitt, member of the
high school band, blew several
military calls on the bugle for the
club. The birthday of A. P. Led
better, Jack Messer and Ben Col
kitt were observed.
