hoping that she will drop her hankerchief
or riding whip or something
they can pick it up and got to
talk a few words with her. she certainly
has tore up flat rock from dan
to beer-sheba, as It wero.
THEY SHALL NOT PAS8
..1 drove down from tlio mountains
last Sunday afternoon. Being alone
and unencumbered with thought and
back-seat talk, I had an opportunity
to take a worm's eye view of traffic
as it exists today.
. .Theer were not less than 5,000 cars
and trucks on the 72 miles of high-j
! way between where my wife and kids j
, spend the summer (and nearly all
lof my ready cash) and where I spend
the week-days and week-nights at a
hotel in my hometown on credit.
..Everybody seemed to be driving
bumper-to-bumper. Cars were bunched
in coveys of about 25 each. A model
"T" was in front leading at a snail's
pace. If It was not a model "T" that
was blocking traffic, It was a courting
couple 'that didn't care for anything
or anybody in the world except
themselves. 1
\ _____
..Every time a fellow tried to pass
the car in front of him, he was making
a gesture toward his undertaker.
If you had been in a hurry, you simply
felt that you were in a hurry, and
decided that the safe and sane thing
was to poke al^ng at 20 m.p.h. (or
slower) and like it.
..Our fast drivers do not make up
our greatest highway menace; It's our
Blow drivers, the traffic blockers . .
who cause traffic congestions. Some
of these slow drivers can't go any
faster, op (account of necking and
hugging, and all of the others apparently
do it for pure, low-dowp meanttfcss.
..If you ever get behind one of these
big, 45-foot public highway trains,
commonly called trailer-trucks . . going
up the mountain, you might as J
well camp beneath the steering-wheel,
and * meditate over this question:
"How much longer will a pleasure
car or a business automobile be allowed
to travel on the highways at
alir
. .1 am not in favor of the average
person driving over 60 to 65 m.p.h.
That speed will get you where you're
going quick enough. Much faster
might get you where you didn't start
Petore you know it. I am Just as
much "agin" the driver that oozes
along nonchantly at 16 to 20 as I am
"agin" wind-buster who makes 80
to 90 regardless.
. .Well either hare to" build a 4-channel
highway system, or give the present
system to big busaes and bigger
trucks . . . (and the slow-pokes in
any kind of vehicles) and build a. separate
road for all kinds of cars that
would like to go along in comfort at
48 to 65 m.p.h. Let's have a speed
, limit at both ends, that is: Too slow
1 as well as too fast.

Tell Of Their Work
(By Jack Wooten)
Kocontly wo announced the winners
of the Chick Management contest for
4-H major poultry project members
in South Carolina. Enclosed you will
find urtlcloB by Emily McCoy and
Mark Muggins, of Kershaw county,
who were entrants in this contest and
whoso letters wen? selected us some'
of tho best submitted. In addition to
scoring those 4-11 members on their
work, ono of the requirements was
to write a brief narrative giving a
resume of their work. The articles
follow:
Huggins Writes Poultry Story
This is my first year as u 411 Poultry
member. I started with 260 Burred j
Hock chicks which I got on February
16. Before they came I had everything
"ready for them as our County
Home Demonstration Agent, Miss
Fewell, told me to do.
My brooder bouse is twelve feet by
fourteen feet, facing south with glass !
cloth on south side and two ventlla-(
tors under roof on north side. Wo
could give them more air us necessary
as we hud a burlap curtain to
roll up und down on the front. 1
used a lurge size kerosene brooder. _
I put u wire screen around the brood-'
er and about five feet from tho outside
of tho canopy. TIiIh kept them!
near the heat and also kept them from
piling up in the corners.
We used ten metal hoppers and two
wooden ones about 34 feet of feeding
space in all. We used fourteen onequart
water fountains. Wo used pine
straw for litter and changed it twice
a week. We put In perch polos when
chicks were eight weeks old. 1 turned
them in a small run at first. After
they were feathered good 1 turned
them out to range on the young grass
for about two hours each day.
1 k**i?t mash before the chicks all
the time und gave them plenty of
fresh clean wutor, washing the fountains
out each day.
My grade at school was Interested
In my poultry work and my teacher
"brought the class to see my chickens.
The cost of my chicks, feed, fuel, and
other expenses amounted to 171.96.
The income from my chicks wus
194.25. This gave nto a profit of
$22 29 on my chicks this llrst year.
1 am going to continue my poultry
work and 1 believe 1 can do better
next year.

My Club 8tory
My 4-H club poultry work began In
1932-1934. The Shrine club of Camden
udvanced me a loan to buy my
baby chicks, and so I began to prepare
for the baby chicks at once. I
had a ten by twelve brooder house
with a brick brooder built by plans
furnished by the Winthrop poultry
specialist. 1 also made the feed hop-1'
pors. - . '*\A
1 used a formula, given to mo by
my Home Demonstration Agent, Miss
Fewell, and mixed my food. The contents
of the formula wore hundred
pounds yellow corn meal, fifty pounds
wheat shorts, twenty-five pounds llsh
meal und one pound salt. 1 gave my
chicks plenty of butter milk and green
feed.
With the splendid help and cooperating
of my parents, the county agent
and tho poultry specialist, the chicks
grew to broilers and fryers very rapidly.
1 sold most of them keeping
only a few for breeding purposes.
Euch year tho work has boon similar
to the llrst year, eaCh time learning
something yew. This year I have
reinvested my money in moro chicks
which are almost ready to sell.
I have always tried to keep nay
house clean and sanitary. I clean the
house twice a week all through the
brooding period.
I have exhibited my chickens In the
county fair each year winning a number
of prizes. I have entered a pen
in the 4-H egg laying contest. ~
I have been selected each year to
represent my county in judging at the
state fair. I have received a certificate
each year in poultry.
My poultry work has not only been
a pleasure to me, but it has helped
me financially. My profit has increased
each year. This year I cleared
$28.29. on my chicks alter deducting
att'exponses.
