BEST DIRECTMS FOR PACKING OF POULTRY t Specialists Recommend Methods of Handling Poultry Under Conditions. Poultry packers are urged by the specialists of the department to give * unusual attention to preparing and pacKing tneir birds ror shipment, particularly if the mild weather,' which has been widely prevalent this autumn, continues. The poultry specialists say that the weather conditions in many sections have been very similar to those which prevailed in the autumn of 1913, and which, as poultry shippers will remember, proved disastrous to all packers who did not dress, chill, and pack properly. The specialists, therefore, recommend the particular observance of the following methods of handling dressed poultry, which are essential to a perfect product at any time and arc r ?<i_ i i i i: vi viuu importance wnenever conuiJL% tion? {ij-Q unfavorable: Methods of Handling Pressed Poultry Keep the holding batteries for I' your incoming stock clean, well aired, ^ and free from vermin, and see that the chickens have plenty of fresh water and plenty to eat. 2. Don't kill a chicken when the crop is full of feed. Give the chicken only water for 24 hours before it is killed. Food in the crop or in the intestines of a dressed chicken causes loss of flavor and hastens decay, which more than offsets any gain from extra weight. 3. Good bleeding is absolutely essential to a good appearance in the market and retards decay. Circular Pi 1 l^ii IVAII i i f ^bnmictKif I^nrv?i ?

Hang the chicken by both feet while picking. Hanging by one leg spoils the shape of the bird. Picking on the lap gets the skin dirty and hastens decay. 5. Dry pick if possible. Scalding is particularly undesirable because it hastens decay. (>. Chill every bird until the body temperature is below .'15 degrees F. Never pack or ship an imperfectly chilled bird. More decay is due to imperfect chilling than to any other single factor in dressing. Dry chill, if possible. Chickens cooled in water loose flavor, decay sooner, will not ^cold-store as satisfactory as dry-chilled, and are in every way more undesirable on the market. Refrigerator cars will carry well-chilled goods in good condition, but they cannot chill warm goods to a sufficiently low tern perature. 7. Pack in boxes or small kegs whenever possible. A large barrel ^makes an undesirable package, because where poultry is packed in large masses the weight of the upper layers crushes the birds at the bottom K. Line all packages with parchment paper and cover the top of the poultry before the lid is put on. 9. Wrap every head in suitable paper so that blood from one bird will f^ot mar the appearance of another. c 10. Use only good refrigerator cars and see that they are in good order. Ice and salt the car 24 hours before loading. The car, at the end of 24 i I i?i i nours, snouiu snow a temperature beM low 40 degrees F. at a point 4 feet above the floor and between the doors General Suggestions. Never handle chickens roughly, \ * either before or after killing. Hough * handling causes bruises, broken bones, scarred skins, and soft places in the flesh. Undue haste on the part of the killers and pickers results in lowered keeping quality and poor appearance of the product. Piecework, which leads to quantity rather than quality, makes for lower prices on the market. Those who pay by the piece should remember that they sell by the quality of the piece. These directions will apply with equal force to turkeys intended for the holiday market. 1?o Ms 1 HORRY COUNTY | | TRUST COMPANY 1 |gj L. D.

United States Senator James D. I' Phelan, of California, in an interview in The New York Times, said that in no part of the country was the need of adequate national preparedness felt more keenly than on the Pacific coast. He said the people of California were convinced that the Japanese menace to their State was a Berious one, and that the situation was daily bccominc morp limits Senator Phelan said he believed he reflected the opinion of the best informed men ami women in emphasizing the absolute and immediate need of strengthening the national defenses. "The western coast of the United States is not adequately protected," l\c continued. "In some places there is no protection at all. Pases for submarines should be established on the Pacific, and new land fortifications constructed. "Our interests in this respect are in common with the interests of the people of the Atlantic Coast States. With them we represent the doors to the country, and the people who live in the interior of the country can not feel j immune because in the event of in-1 vasion or attack their lose will be, in | the long run, as great as taut of the people of the seaboard States. "The cost of preparedness is very small comnared to the cost of wnr. i Eastern people should not underestimate the menace of Japan, which, by its insiduous methods is seeking an ?n trance for its people to the TJnitedl States on terms of eqality with all other peoples. What the Japanese particularly seek is a lodgment upon our, Western coast because of its proxim-j ity to Japan, its fertile soil and its ( mild climate. This is our problem, and we, as Californians, are entitled to speak." "The Japanese can not be allowed to feel that he can come to California and enjojy the rights of citizenship and own land. That means nothing less than the abandonment of California as an American State and converting it into an Oriental colony, like our Territory of Hawaii. The Japanese do not assimilate and make a homogenous population, and they have the ability?which may be regarded as a compliment?of driving ouy own farm ers and orchardists off the soil. These arc the men who enjoy a higher stand nrd of h'"ing. wlm bear the obligations of family life and civic duty, rwho in any crisis of our country's affairs will bear ai ms in its defense. "British Columbia, Australia an New Zealand have excluded the Japanese by law, and we have kept them out in large numbers in recent years by so-called 'gentlemen's agreement' with Japan. But* there are 70.000 Japanese now in California, and their women, who keep coming in through the device known as 'picture brides,' _1 % snow a large increase in immigration. They are a fertile people, and they multiply very rapidly, so that in any event we shall soon have a large native Japanese population which we shall try to take care of in good faith. 4 A very attractive propaganda is be ing carried on through the agency of Japanese American societies and individual American writers to break down California's attitude toward the question of Japanese immigration, and the people of the Eastern part of this country should understand this question as we know it. Japan is a, very young, powerful and aggressive' nation, and we should convince it that out attitude is one of self-preservation and involves no offense. At the same time we should strengthen our mili-1 tary and naval position in order that our weakness may not invite attack. "The Pacific coast, being exposed, should have an independent fleet, because the canal, as has been demonstrated, is subject to interruption by nature, or it could be put out of business with a handful of gunpowder, and our mountain passes may be easily obstructed so that aid from thn - I East might be stopped this side of1 the Rockies." o Ambassador Penficld, at Vienna, was last week instructed by cable to ask the Austro-Hungarian foreign office for a statement in detail of the circumstances of the torpedoing of the, Italian liner Ancona in the MeditterI anean last week, with loss of several American lives. I % RESISTANT SEED IS I NOW AVAILABLE FOR' Avoiding the Heavy Losses Farmers Have Sustained By Cotton Wilt ;7F;j| * i?' ' 1 11 ^ . .'i TO SUPPLY DEMAND GOOD SEED NEEDED Department Went to Work to Secure This And Succeeded. *? ^ P | "fR i Washington.?The U. S. Department of Agriculture points out that highly selected seed of wilt resistant vuitvues 01 couon can now bo had in quantity from local growers who have been cooperating with the Department, and that by purchasing from these reliable sources farmers may avoid risk of loss from mixed seed or that untrue to name. The wilt disease of cotton, which has been very prevalent this season, has caused heavy losses to many southern farmers. It has proved a serious problem in some sections where not only has the disease materially reduced the yields but has spread to fields not known to be previously infected. Already this disease is present in thousands of acres of the best cotton lands of the South and may prove destructive for an indefinite number of years. These facta should serve to direct attention to the valuable work that is being carried on for the improvement of certain varie ties of resistant cotton for the control of this diosenKt?. ^ Much of the wilt resistant cotton grown in the South is of doubtful quality and resistance, which is probably due to the common practice among farmers of securing seed from their neighbors who have successfully grown cotton on diseased fields. The farmer who thus purchases seed, supplies, others in turn, the following season. In this method of distribution there are so many chances for deterioration and mixing at the gins and elsewhere that the originally highly resistant cotton soon loses its good qualities. The reputation of the best resistant cotton may, in this way, be at stake because the deteriorated strain often retains the name of the original variety. In order to maintain resistance in cotton careful breed ing is necessary. Every farmer who has cotton wilt on his farm does not have the time or is not properly qualified to carry or. systematic breeding work, but he may take advantage of ' the work that is being done by- the use of well bred seed. Several years ago Department specialists realized that to supply the demand good wilt resistant seed must be produced on a lancer a cooperative agreement was entered into to breed and grow these seed. This cooperative breeding work has been carried on in South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama, with results which demonstrate the value of high grade seed. The work in South Carolina has been in cooperation with the South Carolina Experiment Station and under the personal supervision of a representative of the Department and Station. It was begun in 1011 and excellent progress has been made by the cooperative breeders. Those who may desire to purchase seed for planting next season should apply at once to the State experiment stations, or to their county agent. It must be remembered that where rootknot is associated with wilt in infected fields the problem of control be comes more difficult and that it is not advisable to plant even the most resistant cotton. rv NOTICE There will be a Box Supper and Cake Walk at the Daisy School House on the first Saturday night in December 1915, for the purpose of raising funds to buy some Library School Hooks for the school.
