Asserting 'that while "store sales"

vitness to the presence of "disturbing

situation as a whole for its face value.
'he explanation is added that there

is the traffic outlook.

of high prices has been reached in

CARE 0OF SUJMMER CHiCKS
Clemson College, May 30.-It is
preferable to hatch chicks in the
four early months of the year on ac
count of the fact that these chicks
are able to withstand the heat of
summer anod the usual excess of
mites anod fleas more successfully
than younger biddies. However,
summer chicks can be ahtched and
raiseod profitably if attention is given
to the following ruiles, suggested by
