1 H. C* Gauger" ol the N. G State ..'CollegtfStoultty' department is wton- /; ,ihg North Carolina^ faraere to be on the lookout for a new disease of baby chides that has caused considerable alarm in n^y sections. ‘ EInpwn as epidemic trerhor becau^ affected chicks show a peculiar vi bration of tile head, the disease has been spen in a few sections" for the past three years. However, a com paratively large number of outbreaks have been reported this 'year, "par ticularly in Chatham county. ,On the basis of recent research work, it appears that the disease is ' caused by a virus, an agent sfaller than an ordinary germ. The sjrm- ptoms fay consist of a fine or coarSe head vibration or tremor and a . par alytic-like condition affecting the legs, although the former symptom*, may sometimes be absent. Epidemic tremor 'affects chicks ih acute form uiv to the seventh week. Although day-old chicks may show symptoms, it is during the second and third week after hatch that ssnmptoms are generally observed. Morality may run as high as j50 per cent, but usiially the losses are around 10 to /V15 per cent. Apparently, the disease . nijt very cqntagibus. ' _ Poultrymen who encounter the disr ^ase should ^take the following ste^s: ■Carefully inspect the brood several Uimes a day and remove, destroy or burn all-affected chicks at once; carefully clean and disinfect the floor and side-walls every two or three days; clean and disinfect feed.con tainers daily; give fresih water sev eral times each day and disinfect the water containers prior to each filling with fresh water; If you are going to be a knock er, build some! (This open for a few weeks to citise"« who have something con- stnicttve to say about Eaefw^).

ARTHUR D. GORE, ' Commissioner. Posted' 2f3|41. 2:6113|cHC. . A prominent Raeford citixen, mem' ber of the Kiwanis club and a man who has done much for his town, shows his disgust evehr time anybody starts knocking Raeford. This man has the right- idea. Yet we should remember that therp are two kinds of knockers, the destructive and the constructive. The building knocker will help Raeford. Onp of the great needs of the town, as I see it, is a municipal swim ming pool. The lot back of the town hall is a good place for one. The large storage room in the town hall could easily be converted into a rec reation hall and reading room. At this location there is plenty of park ing space, shade trees, room for a small park or play ground. Nothing would bring more people of Hoke county to Raeford during the sum mer months than, such d develop ment. Nothing would do more to keep new-comers in Raeford. Noth ing would add more to the health, happiness, and moral well-being of the children and youth than such a development. A recreational center, in the heart of town, owned and maintained by the town and operated by the town or civic organizations, is a thing of beauty and great service to any town. Many towns have such cepter, eventually Raeford will have one. Here is a project that the Legion, Kiwanis, or other clubs chn. begin advocating. Here is Where the town can invest in a character building pro ject equal ^to any it has ever under taken. It will also mean more money and bettey people in town ultimately, f E. C. CRAWFORD. Pniiiaiiait Pastures Need More Protedioii Because of cdnstructioii wofk at Holly Ridge, Craven cotmly lir^ ers are having increasing difflculw in locating tenants and labctm to carry on their farming'opetattons.

GINNY SIMMS was christened Vir ginia originally, but she’s been Ginny Simms ever since, this song bird in Kay Kyser’s top-rating or chestra now lending her headlight eyed and surprising three-octave voice to “You’ll Find Out,” Kyser’s second starring movie, at RKO Radio. Of Southern birth and an cestry, her father an Alabaman and mother a. Virginian, she has livM in Galifornia since early childhood. She graduate^ from Fresno (Cal.) state College and then went to San Francisco to see if her rich con tralto could be marketed; had her eye on radio and the concert stag®, but instead managed to land war^ ling work with Tor. Gerun’s Band at the Bal Taharin. There-she met Kay Kyser, who in his less prom inent days played there. with Ginny Simms a member of his band, with which she had been over five years since, she being one of the late comers to the organlzatloa She says, “Why, six of the boys have been with Kay ever since He ' formed his band. at Chapel -Hill (University of North Carolina) above fourteen years ago” , LARGER Supplies of potatoes and truck crops for market during the ffrst half of 1941 are expected to be larger than those of a year earlier, says the U. S. Bureau of Agricultimal Eco nomics. Increasing emphasis on livestock production in North Carolina and the South has forced the improvement of 'permanent pastures to the fore front, says W. W. Woodhouse, Jr., assistont agronomist of the Experi ment Station at N. C. State College. Pastures are essential to the suc cess of a livestock program, since a flourishing animal industry is de pendent to a large, degree upon a plentiful supply of grazing crops. Broken down, Woodhouse explain ed, the whole problem of pasture im provement might be said to consist of two things. The first is the crea tion of conditions suitable for the best growth of more desirable plants. Second factor is the establishipent, under such conditions, of those plants in such combinations as will provide as near as possible iminter- rupted grazing throughout the sea son and at the same time produce high yields of quality herbage. In North Carolina, the State Col lege agronomist said, it has been the general practice to use for pasture areas not so valuable for the pro duction of other crops. This means that one of the principal limiting factors in providing proper Condition for pasture plants is a lack of soil' fertility. To establish good pastures, condi tions must be created favorable to the growth of grasses and legumes, but conditions under which both can grow without one crowding out the other. The first requirement for the grow the of grasses is usually nitrogen, an element that may be provided by le gumes grown in the same field or by applying farm manures or commer cial fertilizers. Legumes,' on the other hand, us ually require more lime, phosphate, jand potash than do grasses, but are less dependent upon a good supply of nitrogen.. SOIL-BUILDING Farmers of Johnston county are ♦hinViTiB^ more in terms of soil-build- ing than they ever have before, re ports R. M. Holder, assistant farm agent of the N. C.

Since the original Carolina Power & Light Com pany was organized in 1908 with a total gene rating capacity of only 6,330 h.p.,^ a policy of anticipating future power needs has been closely followed! y * By 1926, when the present Carolina Power & Light Company was formed, the generating capacity had increased to 186,000 h.p. Steadily this ca- pacity has bf^n incireased, always in advance of actual needs, until, at the present time, the Com pany has ah availaWe capacity of 426,000 h.p. While present facilities are adequate for present needs, the tenitdry is growing rapidly and the demands for electricity are steadily increasing. In kj^ing with our policy, $3,000,000.00 is being in- v^d in a new steam electric generating plant which will provide an additional 40,000 h.p., mak- i% a total of 465,000 h.p. available. In undertaking this new oonstmetion we are not unmindful of the importanee of this tenritory in our nation's ^wparednees plans and of inereoied National Defense needs for eloctrie power.
