Usually (tiis reinodellng in a large building will i:j v-olve |ln? use of a straw loft to cut down the air space in the quarter* used hy the hens. The straw layer, should he 12 to !f> inches deep and may be supported most readily hy us lug woven wire fencing laid over 2 by 4 joists. The straw loft will have the advan tuge not only of reducing the ruble air space, tail also of equalizing the temperature ami of absorbing moisture, so that the bouse will be warmer and drier during the winter months, as well as cooler in summer, than Is likely to be the ease when a large building is used without such u straw loft. Two Reasons Why Fowls Nibble at Each Other There are two reasons, at least, why chickens peck each other. One reason Is that they get something to cut that Way which they would not get In any gther. If this is the cause the birds can l>e cured of this habit by feeding a complete or well-haianced ration Including minerals, vitamins and protein. A, satisfactory ration would be equal purts of corntueal, bran, middlings, ground oats and meat scraps. To tills should be added one poutut of sail, one pound of bone meal, ahiU one pound of agricultural . limestone, or any liine product. -To cure the habit, It might be well to feed Ijhe bird; J fresh meat such as liver. Care should be exercised In this connection that the meat Is not spoiled. Cod liver.' oil may be fed In the mnsh at-the rate of one quart to 100 pounds of rnnsH, This will supply the possible deficiency in vitamins. The second cause is that the birds develop a bad habit at molting time and I. know of no remedy for this ex cept to turn the birds out that are do ing the picking so the dues that are being murdered can get away. Decline in Turkeys The turkey industry is on the decline. Popularity of other kinds of table poultry, and the many dlfhcul ties in raising poults, hftve Influenced producers to reduce their flocks, .^urtbcriuore, tbe demand for .turkeys, as compared,, wit it other poultry* is limited. Tradition has established the turkey as a holiday fowl and there Is a heavy demand for It from Jhe pub? He only three times a year, nt Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's.

It can be prevented by the use of egg yolks, cod liver oBv direct sunlight or ultra violet light. T . Soy-bean meal from which the oil has been extracted is a desirable food for poultry.

HitL AJTfiY % 1M& - ninntn Big Film Production Will Be Seen at Majestic Monday January 31 Illustrative of the difficulties of the editors of big film productions is the experience of Hugh Wyrvn, cutter of "The Big Parade," which will b" seen at the Majestic Theatre Monday, January 31, matinee and night. Mr. Wynn had to cut ten thousand feet of the Argonne advance of the Yanks against the Gurmftn machine gunners in this picture down to a final five hundred feet. But his biggest job of all came in reducing fifty thousand feet of the night battle kccnvs, in that urea to the 514 feet thai they are now shown in. In thin latter instance?to use a colloquial phrase?W'ynn here worked on hundred to one shots, literally picking out one bit of film per hundred to represent the majesty of a great event. And he had always to bear in mind King Vidor's idea of tempo in slow marching to sustain suspense, while at the same time not permitting the action to drag. The night battle scene, by the way, is the first time in picture history that a world war sequence was filmed showing a creeping barrage. This j barrage was laid down and timed to the second for the action of the playera embodying the advancing lioop*. Tin % followed directly behind it, cleaning up the enemy posts us they went along. Army officers declare this scene techno ally correct in every detail. Hugh Wynn, King Vidor's film editor, worked on "The Hit? Parade" ever since it was decided to make the story into a big production. He was sent to Washington, 1). C. where with the cooperation of the War Department, he saw several hundred thousand feet of the official battle films and took out of thorn 4,000 foot as a general guide in "The Big Parade" I continuity. Hooks Was How Itiddci? The South Curolinu highway department has announced the low bidders on the seventeen bridge, road and culveVt projects, which wore received Thursday at fche offices of the department in the state office budding. No contracts have been awarded n? yet on any of the projects. The department reserve* the right of 30 days in which to consider the bids, also to reject any and all, according to J. Wesley Wilkes, secretary. For construction of an overhead bridge on route 50 near HJaney in Kershaw County, A. V. Hooka, Charlottc, N. C., was low bidder when he offered a figure of $8,171.95.
