But today the little fellow is without a moth er. Mr. Howard opened the pen soon after the baby arrived in order to separate the mother and fath er (in the past bucks have kil led their young), but in doing so, the doe went out, was jumped by I dogs and chased into the swamp. ller owner has attempted sever al times to coax her back to the pen. He has taken the little one to her. but she just sniffs ct it and high-tails it into the woods. However, Mr. Howard reports that she returned to within 100 yards of the pen Sunday night, and several nights this week she was seen on the ball diamond which is located across the highway from the enclosure where the deer are kept. He is confident that she will come back if not molested by dogs or humans.

Boa/d to Meet The hospital bodVd of trustees will consider this proposal at its regular meeting Thursday night. July 12. It was the opinion of hos pital and Moreheud City town of ficials this week that the welfare proposal would not be accepted. In speaking to the county board of commissioners Monday, McGin nis pointed out that last year the ABC funds paid to Morehead City hospital amounted to $15,000. (In Beaufort and Morehead City ABC dividends go into the town general fund). Revenue from the More head City tax levy for the hospital was $1,800. making a total of $16, 800 which is income in addition to payments made by non-charity patients. The county last year paid $1,165 to Morehead City hospital. Seven teen hundred dollars was appro priated for payment of hospital and other medical care bijjs, but bills also come in from other hos pitals and not Morehead City hos pital alone, therefore the entire $1,700 did not go to the local hos pital. Morehead City hospital last year received a total of $812 from Duke Kndowmcnt anil Ihc Medical Care commission and $569.10 from other sources as partial remuneration (or charity patients. According to the welfare department futures ob tained from the hospital, charity cases last year cost the hospital $4,706. Charity patient days to taled 406, thus the iverage cost per day was $11.59, McGinnis con tends. / Total charity payments to the hospital were $2,546.10 from all sources, therefore the hospital deficit in handling these patients amounted to $2,159.90. Last year the welfare depart ment approved the admission of 32 cases. The hospital accepted 36. Of the 32 cases, 21 were re ceiving public welfare payments and 11 were not receiving financial assistance. The ,32 patients to gether spent 406. days in the hos pital. Five of Ihese cases were from Beaufort and five from More head. Sixteen came from oast of Beaufort and 10 from west of More head City. The survey of the place of resi dence was made because, the wel fare superintendent said, repeated claims were being made that prac tically all of the cases were from Beaufort and cast. Budget Exceeded The welfare department during the recently past fiscal year over expended its hospital budget by $115.30. Based on last year's figures, it the welfare department had not placed f $50 limit on each patient, the hospital would hav? received from the county $2,030, or $865 more would have been required in A u s 1 1 i c K o I c GREAT OAK County Turkey Output Increases W. L. Hedrick. extension turkey specialist, State college, who recent ly visited the county, predicts that Carteret's turkey production this year will be 4 per cent higher by poundage than last year. The num ber of turkeys grown, however, will be 6 per cent higher. This difference in percentage is due, he explained, to the increased demand for smaller breed turkeys and turkey fryers that weigh from 6 to 8 pounds. TheRe smaller breeds are mostly the Belksville white and the Jersey buff. On the1 state level turkey popu lation this year will increase from 23 to 30 per cent, Hedrick said. The tendency of turkey produc tion in this state is moving in the direction of larger-sized operating units. There are fewer flocks now being produced with 500 or less birds. Many growers who have been raising 1,000 and 2.000 tur keys are now producing 4,000 and 5,000 birds. Tljere are lots of farmers .throughout the state who are de voting their entire time and receiv ing all of their income from grow ing turkeys. Union county* which has between 100,000 and 125,000 turkeys this year, is the heaviest producing | county in the State. Anson county ranks second with 75,000, while Pamlico rats third with 65,000. Sampson and Cleveland have 50, 000 each. Hedrick pointed out that many turkey producers are beginning this year for the first time with 3,000 to 5,000 birds and are being financed and supervised by feed companies. With 80.000 turkeys ranging in a radius of 50 miles of New Bern, Hedrick feels that there is a need for a turkey dressing plant in this area. The plant should be able to dress 2,500 birds per day and have 150,000 pounds of freezer space with federal veterinarian inspection a vailble, the speceialist recommend ed. the welfare department's hospital budget. On the basis of last year's 406 patent days with payment at *8 daily from the county, the hospital would have received $3,248 from the welfare department; $812 from the Medical Care commission and Duke Endowment. $185.60 from the Kate B. Reynolds fund (a spec ial fund which helps pay charity GAL TWO MOREHEAD HOSPITA costs) and $383.50 from other sources, making a total, McGinnis said, of $4,629.10. Since charity cases cost the hos pital $4,706.13, had the county paid $8 a day during the past fiscal year, the hospital deficit would have been $77.03 on charity cases. Should the hospital refuse to ac cept charity cases, the Duke En dowment, Medical* Care commis sion, and federal and state appro priations for care of welfare pa tients would automatically be drop ped from hospital books as a source of income; and McGinnis said that it would then become necessary for the welfare department to in vestigate possibilities of having indigent patients treated at hos pitals outside Carteret county. There are more than 11,000 dif ferent kinds of bacteria in the world. 0(W PARK Drive -in t Theatre \ Two Mil??
