RICH FROM DEFECTIVE STAMP8 Eighteen years ago, a resident of Washington. D. C., wont to the post office and asked for a shopt of 100 24-cent airmail stamps. He received the stamps and paid for them but just before leaving the window, he noticed a mistake had been made in printing the stamp. Tho airplane on J each stamp was upside down. The buyer turned the stamps back and asked for a refund of his money which was given to him. it happened that the man waiting behind him for his turn at tho window was a stamp collector. Opportunity was knocking at his door as it never did before or has since. Ho asked for the sheet of defective slaps; paid $24 for it and not long after that sold it for $15,000. Stamps from this incorrectly printed sheet are now worth more than $2,000 each, or $200,000 for the lot.

Jr. g . ?f r Keep Flocks Healthy Through Sanitation I Cleinson, Juno 13.?"The greatest I enemies to poultry are disease germs- i and external and internal parasites," 1 nays 1*. H. Gooding, extension poultry* ' man, introducing his new publication, ; Circular 147, Poultry Sanitation and < Health, This circular which has Just i been issued by the Extension Service ' may be had on request to the Publications Department at Ciemson or from county agents. "The primary requirement for u J healthy flock is starting with strong, ' vigorous chicks," the specialist states, 1 "but starting with such chicks is not enough, They must be kept healthy < by constant attention to management of soil on which they run and control of parasites which are often the predisposing cause of flome disease caused by germs. Poultry diseases are , costly In that they cause losses by t death, retard growth, and decrease J egg production. It is not possible to control all poultry diseases by sanitation, yet it Is an established fact that strict sanitary practices are helpful in controlling most diseases and keeping a healthy flock. Any progrum which will protect the growing stock from contact with mature birds and ground . infested with parasites and germs offers a practical means of controlling disease." The new circular offers valuable information and suggestions to poufry growers in carrying out such a program. In addition to specific suggestions on sanitary broodiug practices it lists a number of poultry diseases and parasites, with some recommendations for treatment, but chiefly to Illustrate the Importance of keeping chickens and their premises clean and preventing diseases rather than trying to cure them once they develop. Human Effects of Program Are Vital The human effects of the Agricultural Conservation Program are more vital than the conservation of land, according to Cully A. Cobb, director of the Program for the Southern Region. In discussing the purposes of the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act, Cobb said the accomplish| meht of those purposes would mean improved income to farmers of the South. "We are working not merely with land; we are working with people who live on the land and who get their Income from It." Cobb pointed out that conserving and building rather than robbing it and destroying it would lead to "the balanced type of farming we have talked about so long." Other longtime effects of such a program would be Improved living conditions on the farm, improved schools, improved churches, and improved and better communities In which to live, he said. "Farmers must at no time lose sight of the public or national welfare," Cobb said. "In carrying out the provisions of the Agricultural Conservation Program, agriculture is contributing to the interest of national welfare. If we are to have a balanced abundance of food and libers in the future, we must conserve our soil resources," Cobb said. S. C.
