Observe . School Zones
Careful driving by motorists in
school zones immediately, before And
iter school hours and at lunch time
; 'was urged this week by the North
' Carolina Motor Carriers Association.
NVMW. Executive Secretary, J. T.
Outlaw, stated that drivers should
slow down and look sharp at these
times, whether or not a school patrol-
man or crossing ofjicer was on dirty.!
vpen playgrounds need special watch
ing because a youngster absorbed in
play is not easily distracted by any-
vnng even an onrushing vehicle.
; "Most cities have, special speed
limits for school zones," Outlaw con
tinued, "which a resident, should learn
and obey."

seasonal .drop than occurred at the
same time in 1951. Scarcity of hatch
ing eggs is limiting the output of
chicks at the present time.
The demanfl for broiler chicks dur
ing July was fair with weekly place
ments showing a seasonal decline dur
ing the month. -
Chicks produced in North Carolina
during the first seven months of this
year totaled 43,046,000 compared with
39,947,000 during the same period last
year. This was a gain of 8 per cent.
Prices received for both straight
run chicks of heavy and cross breeds
by North Carolina hatcheries on Aug
ust 1 showed gains from a month
earlier. An average price of f 14.50
fper hundred was being received on
August 1 for both of these classes,
compared with $14.00 a month earlier.
Straight-run chicks of light breeds, at
$15.00 per hundred, were off $1.00
from a month earlier.
United States
Commercial hatcheries produced 83,-
650,000 chicks during July. This num
ber is 20 per cent less than was pro-
ducted during July last year but 53
per cent above the 1946-50 average
production for the month. The pro
duction of chicks" for broiler produc
tion and flock replacement were both
below that of a year ago. Approxi
mately 9 per cent fewer chicks were
placed in the 11 principal broiler areas
than in July last year. The number
of chicks hatched during July for
flock replacement is indicated to be
down 48 per cent Chicks produced
during the first seven months of th's
year totaled ,308,990,000, compared
with 1,363,286,000 during the same
