Hot Weather Suggestion*
It is particularly important during
the warm summer months that all of
the eggs sent off to market should
be infertile. The male birds should
never be allowed with the laying1
flocks except during the breeding season.
Whether fertile or not the egg*
should always be kept away from the
direct rays of the sUn and for that
matter away from any avoidable heat.
They depreciate very rapidly during
the warm months and must be carefully
guarded in every way of course.
A consistent lay of good weight, welltextured,
chalk-white eggs will net u
handsome profit during the summer
time as long as they are well cared
for.
It is suggested that during the
summer the amount of grain being
fed should be cut down. The green
growing things that the birds will
pick up on the range during the summer
time of course will be particularly
wholesome for them. Sudan grass
is very good for a chicken range. It
grows well in hot and dry weather
and if it is kept mow^d so that it
does not become long and stemy, will
provide a wholesome and profitable
range for the birds.
Heat brings the house Hies. That
may m?an a lot of trouble with your
poultry flock unless it is made impossible
for the flies to transfer contagious
ailments such as tapeworm.
Flies that have access to poultry
manure are almost sure to carry tapeworm
eggs and very likely other
troubles. If possible, keep all poultry
manure in a fly-proof pit and in
any case as far away from both'
young and old stock as is possible.
Although we have frequently mentioned
the need of sanitation for the
poultry quarters in this column, it is
one of the most important factors
there is in successful poultry raising
and one of the most often neglected
ones. At this time of the year there
is likely to be a great deal of limberneck
which often proves fata) to
the birds due to therq being a dead
chicken of "two, or rats, or carcasses
of other animals about which the
birds may find and eat. Many other
kinds of infection tend to result from
careless and unsanitary conditions
about the poultry yards. It will pay
you well to inspect the poultry range
frequently for things of this kind and
to check up on them as you would
for a playground for your own young- j
sters^.

MASON AND DIXON'S LINE
Few Southern People Know The Details
Surrounding This Survey
Nearly two centuries after the
trouble began, which caused this
survey to be made, Louis F. Hart
recently visited the border line cbetween
Maryland and Pennsylvania, in
a pilgrimage to the original Mason
and Dixon's Line. Mr. Hart not only
visited thb actual spo^ where Charles
Mason and Jeremiah Dixon started
their famous survey but spent a
great deal of time gathering data
and illustrations around which to
build the story of the famous piece of
engineering.
Using Holland's, The Magazine of
the South, as his vehicle, Mr. Hart
says, "Time changes all things. Old
hatreds die and new loyalties are
born, but the demarcation between
peoples?especially when it goes back,
as this one does, to the Roundheads
and Cavaliers of Cromwell's day?
cannot be wiped out in an hour.
Customs and modes of thinking remain
when material landmarks have
crumbled and vanished. Thus it, is
that in setting out to relocate Mason
and Dixon's Line after so many years,
we must take into account not only
the bench marks which took from the
estate of Charles, Lord (Baltimore,
three thousand square miles or so,
but also those which give double
unity to some forty million people
living in the South today.
"Opinion may differ -as - to where
the line should run, but no one can
deny that it is there. Nor would
anyone go so far as to say that on
one side dwells the practical, and on
the other the ideal. Humanity is too
imperfect to achieve the absolute in
either direction, were that result de- j
aired. The fact remains that the
home of romance is the South, her
threshold guarded with uncompromising
loyalty by her sons."
FLYING WITH GLIDERS
Germany l.tadiiiK World In Nawcat
Chapter of Man's Air Conquest
The crashing of a aail plane which
killed its driver, Ferdinand SchuU,
world-record holder for a motorless
flight, attracts sad but dramatic attention
to Germany's quick advance
in the comparatively neto art of gilding.
j k recent communication to the National
Geographic society by Howard
biepen describee this chapter in man's
conquest of the air.
In Germany today hundreds of
school boys are flying, the society
correspondent writes. Three thousand
took official instructions in 1#28.
To understand fully the rise and
amazing growth (^'Germany's gliding
machines, one must look back?back
to the pioneer makers of airplanes.
The' Wright Brothers, for example,
and Lilienthal made their first aerial
dashes in gliders. Then grew the
idea of applying an engine with a
propeller to drive the' glider.
So successful have motor-driven
aircraft become, however, that the
world's attention has been largely diverted
from air travel by simple
gliders. For nearly two decades only
a few enthusiasts kepi, the ai*t alive*,
but today, due to amazing increase in
air commerce, man is more interested
than ever in the air as an element?
in that soft, light, flexible medium
through which his flying ships must
sail. So now the vast overhead aerial
ocean, its whims and its peculiarities,
afford a new and fascinating subject
to study..
Already, from more recent adventures
in gliding machines, it appears
that man is coming to share what
birds have always known about the
alrT He finds it will support him, as
water carries a swimmer, if ho will
but handle his glider wings as soaring
birds handle theirs. Even wind
gusts, squalls, and clouds, which pioneer
experimenters with gliders used
to dread, are now recognized as usefuhmtds
to motorless flying ch&ft.
Between gliding and what they call
"sail flying" the Germans make a
sharp distinction. During a glide the
plane steadily loses altitude till it
lands. A "sail flight," on the contrary,
is one in which the machine,
while pointing downward, is lifted by
upward air currents, and thus either

Tor traininy a bog inner in motorics?
flying' the simple glider is used;
but n is the sail plane which actually
flies. In build it is more sensitive
that a simple glider and capable of
responding to vertical air currents.
F.ying a plane with no motor in it
si ems less miraculous to the man on
the ground when he hears how it is
built. The conspicuous feature of the
sail plane is its^ very long, narrow
wings -sometimes as much as 59
f?et m length and less than 5 feet
in width. Narrow the wings must bo,
for broad ones would create too many
eddies, and long they must be to pro i
vide the surface to lift a man's j
Weight.
\\ n.lc >i triple gliders often start
merely by sliding or being dragged
down a hillside, so light in structure
is the sail plane that wefe it started j
slowly it would only tumble about
like thistledown in the wind and get
at once out o{ control. Hence, in
launching, an elastic rope device is
used, which shoots the plane into the
air like a stone from a sliny.
The pilot must maintain this speed
by pressing down the nose of the
plane, which decreases the angle of
the tilt of the wings. The earth's
gravity will then draw the plane
downward in a gentle slanting line of
flight, which is called a glide. Thus
the gravity of the earth is the engine
i?
of the engineless airplane.
Speed, of course, is a prime factor
in motorless flying; the faster the
airman can glide, the quicker he can
get from one vertical air column to
the next. Sometimes, to get from
one such column to the next, he has
to glide against a strong wind. Hence
there are "low-wind" and "strongwind"
machines.
So, then, speed, gliding ligurc, and
sinking velocity are the three factors
jin the ideal sail plane. So fur, the
(Germans have found it practically
j impossible to combine these three
| factors perfectly in any one plane. It
is still a battle between the aero-dynamical
best and the technically possible.
Germany's special interest in motorless
flying has been attributed in
part to the fact that under the original
provisions of the Versailles
Treaty certain restrictions were
placed upon the national aircraft development;
so that her air-minded
students perforce turned to the study
and development of engineless flight.
The present world's record for a
flight with one passenger, made by
Ferdinand Schulz, is D hours and 21
minutes. He flew with Heinz Reichardt
like a shuttlecock between Rossitten
and Pillkoppeti, two villages on
the coast of east Prussia.
Having made new traffic laws,
Charlotte had an avalanche of arrests
last week for all the many varieties
of violators. The all time record
of that city for number of arrests in
one day was made on Tuesday, and
that was only one of several days of
intense police activity.
The grund jury of Greenwood
couny made a presentment that there
had been no violations of law of consequence
at Ware Shoals and any investigation
by it was unnecessary. It
said the sending of soldiers there by
the governor to prevent trouble was
well advised, and the state officers
and the sheriff had prevented any
(violence.
