down the air space in the quarter*

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.

serious to poultry raisers. It can be

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

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
