? : HOME DEMONSTRATION DEPT. | Miss Emma Jane Yarn, Home ! Demonstration Agent. Chicken Campaign Opens Aug 1. It is safe to say that fully 25 to 50 per cent, of the hens which make up the farm flock of poultry do not lay eggs enough to pay for the feed they consume. Many hens are kept from three to five years on the farm and such individuals are always at a loss to the owner. By keeping the best layers and culling put the poor producers a greater profit will be derived from the farm flock. Again eggs will be hatched from only the heavy layers and this will have a tendency to increase the laying qualities of the next generation. By disposing of all inferior hens during the early fall sufficient room | is provided for this year's young stock. This will allow them more housing space and the health of the flock will be increased, thus causing a greater eSS production. The county home demonstration agent is planning a poultry culling campaign as a regular part of hef yearly work. The campaign will be carried on from August 1 to October "15, as it has been proven that best results are obtained during this season. The purpose of the campaign is to enable the farm owner to realize a greater profit from the poultry flock. With the present prices of corn and other feedstuffs it is necessary to cull out the boor producer or boarding hen; to save as much high priced feed as possible; to keep the best Pfrpr 1 avers for another season: to DrO vide sufficient space for this year's young stock, and thus make it possi- < ble to receive the greatest possible returns from the farm flock. ' It ha's only been during the past < few years that the culling work could ! be successfully carried on. The U. S. department of agriculture and the different state universities through ; the efforts of their poultry depart- ' meats have been able to make a scientific study of poultry and it is j through their efforts that the culling < work has been made possible. J The selection of the good producing i hen is Very simple, and most anyone ] after a few moments practice can sue- ] cessfully perform the work. The ( time of the year the hen sheds her < v ? feathers, the color of the legs of the bird, comb condition, and other sim- < ^ pie physical characteristics are considered. The county home demonstration i agent, Miss Emma Jane Varn, plans to hold a culling demonstration with each woman's club in the county. In addition many individual demonstrations will be given. In this manner it is hoped to $each a majority of ' the farm flocks in the county. For r additional information and government literature on the subject get into communication with the dem- { onsration agent, Miss Emma Jane ( Varn, Ehrhardt, S. C. ? m ? .Walt Mason Converted. < ' ? 1 1 p K v . : Walt Mason, one of our best bea loved poets, has been converted by j the Salvation Army workers in Los ? Angeles, Cal. Mason, who is a genius, < has tramped every section of the 1 country. He has been friendly with Jhe Salvation army for a long while, j but recently corps No. 1, of Los An geles, was engaged in street services as Mason passed by and the call of the army drum was too much for him, and he became converted. Brigadier Boyd, of Los Angeles, is ioud in hi3 praises for Walt Mason. In his characteristic style. Mason wrote the following poem about his conversion by the Salvation army: < ''One night while walking down ( the street, my mind on pleasure bent ?I sought the pleasures of the world, < but my soul was not content-?I saw ! + Yie? ViTMorVif HcrTitc r*f tho thpntrp* thev tiXt- VU V/X V" W WW- -W J w? wvbeckoned me to come, as did the mu- ' sic and the song in the place where they sold rum. I stepped into a pool hall and found a vacant chair, andthought that I would rest a bit and drive away dull care; but my mind it still persis'ed in turning memory sod, reminding me of the time when 1 was winning souls for God. I couldn't hnd that rest and peace?satisfaction would not come?when suddenly I heard the sound of the good old Army drum. Its voice it called * " me closer, and I found an open-air, and once more 1 could see myself kneeling there in prayer. For I had ; been a soldier, and known.the Saviour's smile, but now I was a deserter?a sinner weak and vile. But, in spite of my meanness, I went to the hall that night. My intentions they were proper?I meant to do the right. But a deserter is a coward ?always ready with some excuse?or perhaps a careless person, and wonders, what's the use? But the prayers of God's faithful people won my hard and stony heart, and at the front that night I made another start. And today?praise God?I'm fighting; Jesus took me back, and now once more I'm traveling in the good old Calvary track." HEALTH MEETINGS HELD. .Motion Pictures on Tuberculosis and Typhoid Shown in Schools. The meetings conducted throughout Bamberg county during the past week under the auspices of the department of rural sanitation and county health work of the South Carolina state board of health were very successful, dite to the hearty cooperation of the home demonstration agent and other prominent citizens of the county. These meetings were held in six centrally located school houses and were well attended. A short talk was made at each meeting in which the speaker ex' * ** e 1.1 piamea tne aim ana purpose 01 me meeting. . Two reels of motion pictures were shown, one on tuberculosis, the other on typhoid fever. The causes and prevention of these two dreadful diseases were clearly brought out in so simple a form that any child could understand, interest being held to the last. We hope that the people will profit by the lessons taught in the pictures and improve the sanitary .condition around their homes. Typhoid fever j is a preventable disease and should not exist. All houses should bb screened, and the breeding places of flies destroyed, for they are one of the carriers of this disease. The people as a whole seemed much interested in the work and wre hope that their enthusiasm and interest will result in the esablislxment of a health unit in this county in the next Vear. The health unit consists of a doctor called the health officer, as many assistants as necessary and one nurse. The health officer has charge of the sanitary condition of the county and at the beginning of the school term gives a free medical examination to every school child. STATEMENT.
