Expert Advise On Proper Care Of Young Chicks Now Ibroper Amount Heat Essential To Avoid High Death Rato. BY DR. It. E. HAITI’. North Carolina State College. The minimum amount of spare needed by chickens in u brooder house is 35 square feet pei 100 baby chicks. Fifty square feet per 100 chicks is still better. Do not crowd the chicks, as over-crowding causes some to overrun others and gradu ally weakens them down and the death rate may be heavy. Do not brood the larger breeds such as the Rhode Island Reds with small breeds, as the White Leg horns. The larger birds are strong er and larger and will run over the smaller birds and weaken them. Everything must be done looking to ward careful nursing and keeping the strength of the chick at a high point as the weak ones have a heavy death rate. The North Carolina type of brood er house is 10 feet by 12 foot, and contains 120 square feet. Since the minimum requirement is 35 square feet per 100 chicks this will accom modate 300 or not more than 350 chicks at the outside. This is as many as we recommend brooding under one hover. Get House For Chirks. After constructing the brooder house, or making an old building over to conform to the principles laid down here, the next tiring to consider Is the equipment and the management of the house. It Is best to order a 52 or 56-inch hover. By 62-inch hover is meant 52 inches In diameter at the lower edge. This gives ample space for brooding. There must be no draft on the floor. When laying the floor, it is a good plan to place a layer of build ing paper, or better, tar paper un der the flooring. Drive the tongued and grooved boards together. Put on the floor a layer of short cut straw or shredded stover to a depth of about one inch. Do not use long straw. Some people use sand but litter is better. Set up the hover and fire up a day before tire clilcks are put under or the day before you expect them. This allows time to be sure the temperature can be held at the out edge of the hover at, ex actly 90 degrees F. day and night. In case one has oil-burning hover it will be necessary to go out at mid night and regulate the oil on nights when the temperature of the weath er is likely to go down 20 degrees or more. A spread of temperature by this much will chill the chicks and a severe chilling will mean that the chicks wil be weakened and will gradually die off. hilling is one of the causes of diarrhea. By starting the brooder the day before it will heat the floor and take the chill from tiie room. The house must be so ventilated that the air is pure and not ODDressive or bad. Feed For Chicks. Start the chicks on n starting mash. The North Carolina starting mash consists of the following: Com meal .- 26 pounds Wheat tnlddllngs __26 pounds Fine ground oats ....... 26 pounds Meat Meal or fish meal . 16 pounds Fine table salt __.... 1-2 pound Bone meal __ 4 pounds If the chicks are to be raised in doors there should eadded one pint of a biologically tested cod liver oil to each 1000 pounds of the mash. Where only a lew chicks are to be brooded a cigar box or two can be used as the first mash hoper This Is about the right height for a hopper, or one can make a Ion box by taking a board 10 inches wide and five feet long and nail on the sides of this 2 inch strips. Cut a piece of wire netting, best 1-2 inch mesh sand screen, and lay down on the top of the mash, after filling the container with starting mash. This sand screen keeps the chicks from throwing the mash out. Two of these hopper will do for 350 chicks, and two quart Jars of water are also needed. It is easy to teach chicks to eat. By pecking on the edge of the mesh hopper with the fingers, the chicks will come around and commence to eat. For a few days It is necessary to keep a wire netting around the hover, to keep the chicks from wandering too far away from the heat, and becoming chilled. This wire should be about 12 Inches high and placed about- a foot away from the hover. After a few days the chicks become hover wise and no longer need the guard. Keep the starting mash before the chicks at all times. By the end of the first week ,or not longer than 10 days the chicks should have a little fine cracked grains in addition to the starting mash. Chick Scratch. The North Carolina chick scratch feed Is as follows: Scratch Feed For t hicks. Cracked corn .......... -jo pounds Cracked wheat.20 pounds Hulled oats . --... io pounds Give the grain in addition to mash and give sparingly, at first. finally feeding all they will dean up three times a day. As chicks grow older they will eat more and more scratch feed and thus widen their ration. This is one of the rea sons why the North Carolina State college does not recommend the all mash method of feeding chicks. Na ture has told the bird what to eat and It will follow its inherited ten dencies U allowed to do so. Hold Watch Given Rev. J. W. Suttle • On Occasion Of His Birthday.

Some days ago young Max accom panied Baxter Durham, state audi tor, and recognized as the dean of fishermen among the state officials, on a fishing trip to a nearby lake. Though Durham had several nibbles and had managed to land two or three fish that were not so bad, young Max continued to fish on without any luck. it started to get dark, and Dur ham hauled In his tackle prepara tory to going home. He also started to think up some excuses. Every fisherman must have some excuse or alibi it he returns from a fishing expedition without any fish. “What are you going to tell your mother?" Durham asked Max. “What do you mean tell my moth er?" young max asked. "Well, you haven't caught any fish and you will have to explain," the state auditor replied. "Gimme that thing.” Max de clared, pointing to the pole and line. He seized the rod and made one more vigorous cast out into the pond. Hardly had the hook touched the surface before there was a tug on the line, and Max landed as pretty a white perch as any fisherman ever pulled out of water. With a look of triumph he turned to Dur ham and said: "Tell her? I won't tell her any thing. I'll just take this fish home with me.” RODEFFEK OPENS STUDIO IN WOO I, WORTH BUILDING M B Rodeffer of Oaffncy has come to Shelby ajid open a photo graph studio in the Woolworth building.
