The purpose of the Welcome Neighbor Days event is to make the men and women living within a 50-mile radius of Durham better acquainted with the city’s stores and to more firmly establish Durham as one of the state’s largest merchan dising centers. The program is being sponsored by the Durham Merchants associa tion, and all member stores will cooperate in making the event the largest and most successful of its kind ever held in the city. The stores are bulging with new merchandise purchased especially for the Welcome Neighbor Days. Left-overs, out-of-season goods and the like are not being offered to any great extent. The stocks are new and in many instances the regular prices have been cut as an inducement to the thousands who will visit Durham during the week end. One of the principal objectives of the Merchants association during the coming 12 months will be to further develop Durham’s exten sive trade territory.

SLACK-SCALD METHOD BEST PICKING BIRDS Gives the Dressed Birds a Very Clean Appearance FREE OF TORN SKIN Poultrymen who sell dressed broilers and fowls at retail this year should realize that the slack-scald or semi-scald method of picking the birds is the most satisfactory. When the slack-scald method is used, dressed birds have the plump clean appearance and the keeping qualities of dry-picked birds, yet they ana free from torn skin which is often found on dry-picked broil ers. The slack-scald method consists of immersing the bird for 30 sec onds in water heated to a tempera ture of 126 to 130 degrees Fahren heit. For broilers the water tem perature should be from 126 to 128 degrees, while fowls require a higher temperature of 128 to 130 degrees. Higher temperatures pro duce scald spots which often result from the ordinary method of scald ing, but lower temperatures will not loosen the feathers. Bleeding must be complete be fore scalding, otherwise red crops Are You Interested In A Business Career? If so you are interested in taking a business course.
