Chicken Lameness Has Many Causes In all flocks of chickens, re gardless of age, there/will occa sionally appear one or more birds that show some type of leg weak ness. The careful poultrymari be comes alarmed. <pften this alarm Is Justified, then again an oqca> sional case of lameness should be expected. ' II S. Dearstyne, head of the poultry science department at N. C. State College says there are several possible causes of lame ness in chickens. In some cases it is possible that a collapse o| certain nerve cten ters occurs, probably related to breeding. Such lameness is not contagious. In very young birds, rickets (improper bone forma tion) will produce a lame condi tion in the birds. This is specifi cally a dietary deficiency and can be quickly corrected if a proper diagnosis is made and the defi ciency in the diet adjusted. Another type of Perosis (slip ped tendons). Perosis usually ap pears in birds six weeks of age or older. If a large number of birds show this condition, the cause probably is a lack of min eral balance in the diet If only a single case, or a very few of a large flock show the condition, it probably is due to the fact ;hat thesb individuals are unable to utilize, the mineral consent of the diet. In this case, nothing can be done, says Dearstyne. However there Is a type of leg weakness which Is a matter of NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to action of the Board of Directors, a meeting of the shareholders of First National Bank, of Kings Mountain, North Carolina, will be held in the lob by of the bank on Monday, May 10, 1954, at 4 p. m., to consider and vote upon a program Invol ving, along with matters incl. dental thereto: .

Neural Leukosis is what might be term ed a disease of youth as it usual ly affects birds from six to 20 weeks of age. It is caused by a very small germ and is trans missible from bird to bird. Usual ly when this trouble is present there is a steady number of birds coming down. While rickets and perosts may be approached on a corrective ba sis, nothing can be done of neural leukosis. The afflicted birds should be destroyed. Birds show ing such nerve trouble seldom, re cover and prove economic. Poul trymfen should submit lame birds to a disease diagnostic laboratory where, a careful diagnosis can be made. Often money can be saved if birds are submitted before the trouble becomes widc-sprfead in the flock. Clement Eaton's New Book Is Published NEW YORK ? Historian Cle ment Eaton, native of Winston Salem and alumnus of the Unlver- 1 sity of .North Carolina,' has re- 1 leased "A History of thte South ern Confederacy" published by The Macmllllan Company.

It shows the forces that dis rupted the Union, the llfte of the soldiers, the personalities of the leaders, Confederate diplomacy, naval warfare, and the effect of the war upon social life a?d on thte mind and spirit of the \rjple. In his Preface to "A History of the Southern Confederacy" Dr. Eaton says: /'Into the world of the Old South during Its final struggle I have entered as a historian train ed at the University of North Carolina and In the graduate school of Harvard University. Undoubtedly few Southerners can contemplate the faded gray uniforms, the swords, the dresses of Southern belles of 1860, the bearded portraits of the generals, and, above all, the tatttered flags of the Confederate regiments, or read of the charges of Pickett or of Cleburne at Franklin unmov ed, but I have tried in these pagfes to tell the truth and to be fair to both sides ? the Blue and the Gray."
