Revised Circular
Oh Feeding
Laying Hens
Clemson, Nov. "20.—For profit
able poultry fanning, feed cost
must be kept at the minimum
and egg production at the maxi
mum. This can be done only by
intelligent selection and prepara
tion of poultry rations and syste
matic feeding, declares P. H.
Gooding, Clemson extension poul
try specialist.
Feed cost and egg production
^re, in fact, the two most impor
tant factors determining poultry
orofits, says Mr. Gooding, an
nouncing the recent revision of
Extension Circular 131, Feeding
Laying Hens. Fifteen year’s rec
ords on South Carolina farm
flocks show that feed makes up
about 80 per cent of the flock
cost other than labor; and that
^gg production amounts to about
70 per cent of the flock income.
Extension Circular 131. Feeding
Laying Hens, discusses the feed
'dements necessary for laying
hens, and the function of these
nutrients in egg production. The
circular gives a method for com
puting the vitamin reqiurements
of laying flocks, ft also lists va
rious mash formulas for hens in
egg production.
The advisability of lighting
hens for increased winter egg
production also is stressed in Cir
cular 131. And the value of
poultry droppings as fertilizer is
pointed out by the specialist.

LONGER OR SHORTER?
Nov. 15.
The German hope of a split in
the United Nations line-up has
been blasted by the announced
results of the Moscov/ conference.
The Germans now know that
they face a war to the finish with
little hope of stalemate unless
some competely unforeseen hap
penings occur. Before the Mos
cow conference there were all
sorts of rumors afloat to the ef
fect that the United States * and
Britain were not in accord with
Russia’s war objectives. There
was much talk about Russia mak
ing a separate peace with Ger
many; and there was—as usual—
laxed in the early days of tlr?
war and “took on” Russia in her
spare time. Look at. her now!
This sort of thing works both
ways.
INDIVIDUAL AND COLLECT*#,t
POSTWAR PLANS
Nov. 22.
Some of us don’t hold with the
radio commentators that the A -
lies have practically “blasted”
the Germans and Japanese o
the face of the earth. We are
inclined to believe that there at ;
several of these rascals still • l?f.
and that they are not “in fu'l
flight” all the time. In fact there*
re some of us who believe ths.';
a good deal of surface friction this war may continue for quite .v
between Britain and ourselves be- while regardless of wishful imar -
ing fanned by enthuiasts on both
sides of the Atlantic. It all made
inings to the effect that cr. *
enemies are “starving” and th ;
good editorial stuff for the Ger- their “morale is cracking ” A -
man press and excellent morale cording to some “authorities”

Will the loss of this hope—for But, nevertheless, we do ho'd

ing these enemies blood mad, and
if they were kept ignorant of the
vengeful hatred which their exe
cution squads are creating against
them, they might be more liable
to quit when they realized they
had nothnig to gain by continu
ing the fight. Even their leaders
might become war-weary and
ready to lay down their arms and
go home to peace and quiet. But
now these leaders have been
warned that the war guilty a-
mong them are to be tried and
punished, and they realize that
in many cases this punishment
may mean execution. It is, there
fore natural that these men will
attempt to persuade every living
German that his or her life may
be forfeit to the vengeful soldiery
of their enemies if their country
is invaded and conquered. By this
token the Moscow * conference
should tend to prolong the war.
On the other hand, the Ger
man people—who are not fools—
have been buoyed up by the un
doubtedly much advertised hope
of an Allied split. They have
doubtless been told that by
sustaining a delaying action
they will win the war on
the political field if not on the
battlefield. With this hope gone,
and with ony a continuing death
list among their sons and broth
ers to look forward to—will they
decide to turn their leaders over
to the justice of their enemies
and hope thereby to “cushion”
the resentment towards them
selves as a ■* people? They cer
tainly must realize that continued
resistance and^its resultant trag
edy is not going to soften the
feelings of their enemies.
So only time can tell whether
the war has been brought closer
to a conclusion; but we know now
that the history-making confer
ence on the Moskva river has
done more for the general morale
of the United Nations than any
major victory yet won on the
field of battle; and it has cleared
the atmosphere more than the
most optimistic had hoped. What
all the United Nations are fight-
ng for has now been defined.
But the war is not won—it can
continue for years if we slow up
or allow such stoppages as the
coal strikes to halt our production
of the weapons without which we
will be defeated. Germany got
so cocksure of victory that she re-
So at this very moment tho'o
of us who are not at the battle-
front should be considering “wnyi
and means” to tide us—individu
ally and collectively—over thn.t
sensitive period which must in
variably follow great revolution
ary convulsions such gs a global
war.
Every family is, of course, fac'd
with different conditions and
only one rule will cover most cf
these families. That rule is: Ac
cumulate assets in some form or
other to tide you over the early
postwar period. The tendencies of
this period are unpredictable; al
most anjr situation and condition
may arse. But it is fairly safe to
say that a well-lined pocketbooX
will tide the owner through all
of them—except^ of course. In
flation.
There are those who are not
earning enough money today to
live healthily and at the. sar-o
time put away anything ror the
hard times which may—or may
not—come. These should now bo
studying to prepare themselves f o
meet the postwar future predi
cated upon the situation as they
can best foresee it.
It is' Collective Planning, how
ever, to which the American peo
ple must give their most ardent
attention. Already England and
'Russia are far advanced on ; tho
road of postwar planning, while
we have only straggled out upon
it. Individual societies and or
ganizations have advanced sug
gestions and plans, many of
which may be workable and
feasible. But to date we have
settled upon no co-ordinated set
of principles to which all ele
ments in our nation could ad
here advantageously. Such a
Set of Prinpiples” could only bo
arrived at through ah assemblage
of all the interested elements.
Why could not the government
call together in joint meeting
with their best economic and
social brains, the representatives
of every important group in this
nation — farming, manufacture,
business, labor and any other of
the essential parts which mako
up the “whole.” This great as
semblage would be whittled down
eventually into a workable unit
from which we would expect
plans to successfully circumvent
the dangerous situations which
will surely confront us.
