Hugh Ratcliffe seeded five acres in ladino clover and orchard If you are among those who plan to raise a flock of turkeys this year, then you will want to follow the recommendations on brooding giv en below by L. W. Herrick. Jr., extension turkey specialist at N. C. State College. Poults should be brooded sepa rate from chicks Almost any type of brooder stove may be used pro vided it gives enough uniform heat and can be easily regulated. From 100 to 250 poults may be brooded under one stove with 200 probably being the most economical unit. The house should be large enough to allow one square foot of floor space per poult if kept in the brooder house eight weeks, or one and one-half square feet if kept in twelve weeks. A sunporch, of equal size, should be built on the south or east side of the house. Feeder Space Two inches of feeder space should be provided for each poult to eight weeks of age and three inches from then to twelve weeks. One two or three-gallon waterer, or several quart glass jar waterers per 50 poults, should be available. The brooder stove should be regu lated at 95 degrees at the edge of ,he hover at the height of the poult s back. After a week or two, this temperature may be dropped five degrees each week until a tem perature of 75 degrees is reached. Sufficient ventilation should be provided so that no strong odor is noticeable on entering the brooder house Be sure no drafts are cre ated There should be enough windows on the south or east side of the house to provide sufficient light. Poults should be fed and watered just as soon as they are placed un der the brooder. Use a good com mercial turkey starting mash or a home mix made by an approved formula. Do not use a chick start ing mash. Turkeys require four times as much vitamin A as chicks; therefore a chick starter should not be used. Most poults will start to eat and drink right away, but there are occasional groups that need to be helped. Many "tricks" have been used t0 teach poults to eat. Bright glass marbles may be placed in the water and on the feed; crumpled oat meal, short chopped grass, or finely cracked yellow corn may be sprin kled over the feed. Water in glass jars will be emptied twice as fast as water in other containers of equal size, because the poults are attract ed by the bubbles arising in the jar and by its brightness. A strong electric light placed directly over the feeders and wa terers will Increase consumption. In some cases, poults may be taught to eat and drink by dipping their beaks in mash and water. Usually only a few in a group need to be taught, but in some cases nearly all do, and for this reason some growers dip the beak of each poult Into feed and water as it is taken out of the box. The longer the poult goes after hatching without water and feed, the less likely it is that it will learn to eat without help. -3 HazelWooj Lumber (J it '''tenth "mr.s, in "JlT,n in hi, h'lll at . 1 '"wm! u;i,ii. . ,a'' Cn n"' ' ""c Snnm... -'"un r ,.

Improving Barn Cuts Costs Of Tobacco Curing Many North Carolina tobacco farmers could save more than one third on their curing fuel bill by improving their hams and their curing methods, says li. M. Ritchie, Jr., agricultural engineer for the State College Kxtenslon Service. Defective barns and outdated methods are now causing the waste of several million dollars worth of fuel in the State each year, Ritchie asserts. The biggest fuel thief in curing, says the State College specialist, is excess ventilation too much air moving through the barn at times during the cure when very little air is needed. This wasted heat can be saved by stopping up iiir leaks in the burn and by using a con trolled ventilating' system. All holes at eaves and gable ends of barns should be closed. If a con siderable amount of air leaks through the walls, they should he covered with some material which will stop the leaks. Ventilation during the cure should be obtained by means of a ridge ventilator which can be closed tightly when not needed. Bottom ventilation, if needed, is best ob tained by a large number of small holes well distributed around the foundation. A well-built barn can cure to- I bacco economically without the ad- I dition of insulation. However, in- sulation will save some fuel In all ' barns. Over a number f years in- sulation will pay fo itself in any j barn, particularly in one that is poorly built. Several forms of in sulation are available. Farmers interested in improving their tobacco barns may obtain complete information from Exten sion Circulars 3 Hi and 322. These publications may be obtained free from the county agent or by writ ing the Agricultural Kdilor, State College Station, Raleigh. grass, cleared rock oil eight acres of pasture, planted 750 strawberry plants and 50 raspberry plants; in stalled a new electric pump, and fertilized 10 acres of pasture. .1.
