The hens produced an average of 103 eggs each for a profit - of $2.43 per bird. The egg production was low and should have been higher,, but this Is the first time Melvin has tried his hand at raising poultry, Melvin scored "Fair" on his egg production and "Excellent? on his profit Per bird. To continue his, 4-H club work. Melvin has L . raised 100 white rocks to replace his present flock this fall.

' - '' This is a very fine record for small flock and they will con- '-' v tlnue to produce through the summer, but it will be necessary to ' replace them with younger birds this fall. Melvin was In a controlled 4-H dud chain project and could not raise a large number of birds, ' but it is the opinion of the Extension Poultry Staff of State College and the County Agerfts Office that Melvin could have managed 400 '- birds and would not have consumed any more of his time In the large operation. , Z. 3.

This will be trie sixteenth annual campaign to tidy up the official mail recep tacles 'and bring beauty to our highways and better service to rural route patrons. . ' Mail, delivery to farm houses And rura( patrons was started more than half ? century ago. Driving from LaGrange to Kinston and from Kin- ston ' to ' Kenansville ; Wednesday morning it looked as if some of the patroi i are still using their original Doxes. During the earlier " years there were no specified requirements a- bout the size, material or location of the roadside boxes. Any old box would do. Sometimes kitchenware was mounted on a shaky pole. Most common ailments of mail boxes to day are lack of door, approach to the box obstructed and not proper ly graded, position of the box too jlgh or too low, not waterproof, post not firmly planted and not '.evel, poorly secured to post and painted with some color other than white or aluminum. Names should be painted in 1-inch black letters. ,,The Post Office Department the most Important agency in keeping the' people of the nation , nformed, The rural deUvery is a post . office on wheels and many times these services are taken for tranted. The carriers are trying tp jerve patrons as promptly as possi ble with as few mistakes as possible. Errors are Sometimes caused . by Matron's name being omitted on the nail box, especially when a substi tute serves the route while the egular carrier is on vacation or ;ick leave. The substitute is not ilways acquainted with the route s well as the regular carrier. Many boxes,' which are the high way billboards of the postal ser Ax, have become unsightly with -ust. Unserviceable due to a leaky condition, broken doors or no lids, missing signals, no name, supports being bent or rotted and needing rnlacing, .wjseda j4 wUd. trass grown around the supports and approaches, and in many places the ground is rough and full of chuck holes. The postmasters of LaGrange and Seven Springs are asking the pa trons along their routes to cooperate in improving their mail box equip ment during "Mail Box Beautiful Week." Additional information on proper size and height for rural boxes may be obtained from the postmasters or the rural carriers. Eastern Carolina should be the brightest spot in the South this month.

We started .a ''clothing closet last fall and had wonderful success. We isked the Home Demonstration Piluos 'wroughpuf tiWiSoiint to tSo tlnue - and they did. They were 1 unanimous. Nearly all of the clothing was clean, pressed, and in 5ood repair. Since then other organ--"-ns have added from time to time" :..-,'. ' We in turn have been contribut ing whenever we had calls, but we have not yet been able to meet the demand. We need children's cloth ing most of all. Our greatest de mand for clothing is in the winter," Mrs. Taylor continued. "Often we find children out of school because they haven't suitable clothing. Now is the time of the year when people have already cleaned out their closets or are planning to do so. We are wondering if a supply of warm winter clothing is not lying unused in closets or trunks. Boys' pants, sweaters, jackets, underwear, and girls' dresses, sweaters, coats, in fact any kind of warm clothing in good repair would be welcomed." Mrs. Taylor also suggested that sheets, blankets, quilts and furni ture was desired. The Woman's Club in Rose Hill, tHrough their "Help A Home" project has supplied some furniture. The clothing closet is not spacious enough for storage of furniture. The Rose Hill club do nated the furniture, but stored it until arrangements were made for its delivery to the one who was to receive it.
