Doubled Egg Record
By Healthy #
Laurent, Feb. 2.?A poultryman of
thU county who last season enrolled
as a demonstrator, in the Grow
Healthy Chick's Campaign conducted
jointly by the Poultry Division, of
Clemson College, and county agents,
got double the egg production from
600 White leghorns during last November
that his records for the same
month of 1927 show. Records in the
hands of County Agent C. B. Cannon
reveal this accomplishment.
This popltrymun renewed his flock
with vigorous, disease-free baby
chicks, brooding them in a clean,
well ventilated brooder house in
, which he could maintain a. 00- degree
temperature under the canopy, auj
used geaaing-range apart - from
mature birds and uncontaminated by
cocc.diosis germs or worms eggs.
These facts, according to L. G. Neel,
extension poultry specialist at Clem*on/College,
largely-accotont for such
hn improvement. He fed his chicks
at first on cleap cardboard and thereafter
put all feed, water or milk in
containers two inches above the floor,
for the sake of cleanliness, and kept
a clean litter of strayy on the floor.
According to Demonstration Flock
records, egg production is the greatest
and most profitable source of income
for the farm flock* The brooding
period appears to be the critical
time in a bird's life, and it determines
the later value of the bird to a great
extent, regardless of the quantity of
medicine and tonic given. Pullet*
properly brooded managed can
produce eggs profitably at 26 cents
a dozen on the low spring market und
they can return a handsome profit
when .the price soars to 50 or 60
cents a dozen.
Record cards for the Grow Healthy
Chicks demonstration will be supplied
by county farm agents of the
Poultry' Division aT 'Clemson College
to poultrymetv, .wishing to cooperate.
Diptheria In South Carolina
One day, not bo long ago, a mother
in South Carolina fell sick and sent
for her doctor. While* he was examining
her the sound of someone
in the next room breathing very
horsely caught his ear.
"Who is thai?" he asked.
"That's George," replied the
mother. "He's had the croup for
four days."'
On investigation the doctor found
a little boy extremely- ill with diphtheria.
Antitoxin was procured an 1
given to the' little^oatient within an*
hour,.but it was too late. The deadly
disease had too long a start. And
his mother thought he had "the
croup"!
Dr: James A. Hayne, State Health
Officer, recently made a study of one
hundred diphtheria deaths in South
Carolina from which he discovered
.some significant facts.
He found that, contrary to the
general opinion, Negroes are quite
susceptible to this disease, twentytwo
of the hundred deaths investigated
being of this race.
Eighty-eight of the hundred were
children five years old and under.
This means that efforts should be
concentrated on the immunization of
our preschool children.
Seven of the deaths were of children
whom the doctor saw on the first
day of ilness; fifteen on the second
day; twenty-one" on the third day;"
fifty-seven after the third day. These
figures show the extreme importance
of calling the doctor early and giving
antitoxin promptly.
, Another fact brought out by this
study was that the danger peripd
from this disease begins in South '
Carolina about the middle of August,
reaches.its height in November and
runs through January. It is evident
from this that we must get our chil- '
jlrer. immunized early enough to fortify
them against this time of greatest
danger. As it takes from three
ro six months to establish immunity I
it will be seen that toxin-antitoxin,
should be given as early in the spring |
as possible.
The South Carolina State Board of j
Health has been distributing anti-}
toxin free for eighteen years, and our
death rate Jiap been greatly reduced
by its use. But the number of cases
has not been reduced. This means
that, though they survive the disease,
there are still large numbers of our
children maimed by its effetts. We
must not take dangerous chances on
curing diptheria; we must prevent it
by the use of toxin-antitoxin.

Teachers association, with headquarters

Then We Bought a Cow
A few years ago, after our milk* J
man raised his price on sweet milk to
10 cents a quart, and advanced his
butter to HO cents a pound, we (lew
up and bought a cow. Uncle Joe had
advertised "a pedigreed, b-gallon
Jersey," and as we desired to be
good to our kinfolks, so we bought
old "Bess."
Well, wo installed "Old Bess" in
due course of time. The cook had
agreed to do the milking at an advance
in salary of only 26 centa a
week. We were happy over the
thought of growing our own milk and i
butter, and a 5-gallon-cow would |
certainly supply us with all the!
lacteal Huid we could devour, and:
leave enough surplus to sell to our
neighbors for cash to buy feed with.
I must say that "Old- Bess" lookted
all right when she arrived. The
cook milked her the first night and
got nearly a quart of fairly rich
Iluid. I thought thut the bovine
would finish out her 5-gallons the
next morning, and considered her
"short measure" a natural event after
stopping at a new place at the end
of a 6-mile jaunt thru the country
from Uncle Joe's house. j
0Vr cook never. did come back to
our house after her first contract
with "Old Bess," so I took over her
job of extracting the product already
mentioned. I had to buy me a pair
.of goloshes (then called rubber boots)
to wade thru the barn yard to the

cow. I finally got her sufficiently!
"sowed" to begin operations, end
much to my surprise and chargin,
"Old Hess" had teats on her large
udder about the size of a child's
sewing* thimble. Milking her was
just about like seeding cherries with
the thumb and finger. 1 think I got
about 25 little squirts that .morning,
equal to about 2 pints.
1 still thought that tine cow would
improve on acquaintance, hot ?he
didn't seem interested in earning he
keep. The next night came, ami I
went to the lot With a 5-gallon . i'.l,
and a soul full of hope. 1 started
off in high. He fore I knew it, "Old
Hess" switched her heavy tail around ?
my neck, and gave it a quick jerk, {
and pitched me ove* the feQce into
the pig pen. 1 . didn't go in the
house jright then, as 1 should hav*
"have done, and get my pistol ahd
shoot her, 1 wus so mad 1 nearly
cuaaed, but my wife was standing in

I put up with "Old Bess" for u
month. I tied her all over town to

one evening, I got the cow-chain
tangled uround my neck, and the old ,
huzzy .got scared at something at I
the same time, and we went down
that road for 7 miles at 65 miles per
hour, and if I had hesitated, she
would have killed me. I turned her
loose when bqth of us fell from exhaustion,
and 1 don't know what became
of her. For milking purposes,
"Old Bess" didn't have anything at
all on a ground squirrel.
