Valuable Rain Fell In Section Friday A long-needed rain fell in this section Friday, giving parched crops a “new lease on life.” One producer described it as a “million dollar rain,” declaring the steady drizzle Friday and the cloudy skies Saturday gave the rain time to soak into the grounds, thus reviving many crops that were roasting in the fields. Lack of rains and cool nights have held most crops back, but the rain and prospects of wanner weather give farmers new hope. Pvt. Wetherington Arrives in Hawaii Army Pvt. Jesse W.

Plans to Build a Movable Laying House Now Available Plans for a small, portable, low cost poultry house are now avail able for families who want to keep a small flock of chickens for their home egg supply, according to R M. Ritchie, Jr., extension agri cultural engineering specialist at State college. Designed by the agricultural en gineering department in coopera tion with poultry specialists, the eight by 10 foot house wiQ take care of approximately 24 hens. Cost of materials figures about 575. Ritchie says that it is estimated that a family can save as much as 550 or more on its annual food bill by keeping a small flock of chick ens. The new-type laying house is1 designed to be built on skids so that it may be easily moved from place to place on the farm. It can be disassembled, into five panels and hauled on a truck for longer distances. This makes it a practical house for the family which is rent ing or living on a farm temporarily and wants a chicken house that can be moved readily. Plans may be ordered through the county agent’s office or by writing Agricultural Engineering Extension, N. C. State college, Ra leigh. Ask for Plan No. 823.
