Timely Information
By The County Agent
A careful study of large and small
poultry enterprises over a period of
years by Clemson poultry specialists
has disclosed that several important
factors determining the profit to be
made from any given poultry enter
prise include yearly egg production,
fall and winter production, flock mor
tality, and overhead costs, says Coun
ty Agent P. B. Ezell.
Yearly egg production and winter
egg production are about equally in
fluenced by breeding and manage
ment he explains. Mortality is also
greatly influenced by breeding and by
the ability of the poultryman to keep
his flock free from disease, especially
from paralysis.
Overhead costs are influenced by
many things, including labor, effi
ciency, volume of business, and
other costs which are largely deter
mined by the thrift of the poultry-
man.
Many poultrymen in the state, the
agent points out, are making flocks
averages of 150 to 200 eggs per bird,
with low mortality and excellent pro
duction in fall and winter which is
the time when prices are usually
highest. Nearly every accomplishment
of this kind is done by securing stock
from a source where progress has
been made in breeding for these fac
tors.
At present 12 Record of Perform
ance breeders in the state are produc
ing baby chicks with real breeding
behind them. Also, a number of U.
S. Certified hatcheries, which head
all breeding flocks with males from
dams with 200 eggs or more, offer
well bred chicks. These chicks cost
only a few cents more than chicks
with very little or no breeding and
often return a dozen eggs for each
cent invested, Mr. Ezell declares.
For the proper care of livestock
in the late fall County Agent P. B.
Ezell calls the attention of Newberry
County farmers to these reminders:
Animal Husbandry
Breed sows for spring litters. Have
all weanling pigs double-treated for
cholera. To prevent the beef herd
losing the weight gained on pasture,
supply cheap roughage and a little
cottonseed meal. Fatten a beef ani
mal to be slaughtered later for home
use. Remove the ram from the ewe
flock. Feed idle mules ample rough-
age and give only half ration of con
centrates. See that all livestock have
shelter and bedding during cold
rainy weather.
Dairying
Increase the bam feed as pastures
are killed by frost. Let the cows
clean up the corn and hay fields after
these crops have been gathered. Pro
vide warm, dry, clean stalls for fall-
bom calves. Use a carefully selected
purebred dairy bull from proved high-
producing ancestry. Use November
spare time remodeling barns, putting
in concrete floors, and other im-
\

IS THIS YOU?
Only one of last week’s discriptions
received a ticket for a quart of ice
cream. That was Mrs. George L.

Dr. R. A. Goodman, of the Newberry
College faculty.
This week the descriptions are both
ladies. The first was seen crossing i
Boyce street to Caldwell street Wed

scribe. She wore a light blue dress,
a darker shade blue coat, trimmed in
black, and black hat and shoes . . .
She has golden blonde hair, always
immaculately arranged.
The second is of a lady whose of
fice—well, its not exactly an office,
but the place she works is on Boyce
street. She is always most helpful
to all who come there. She was seen
there Wednesday morning wearing
a black, white dotted dress, with a
brooch clasped at the neck. On the
white-trimmed pocket was pinned an
American flag.

TREES PLANTED NOW ASSURE
LIFE INCOME
We are in receipt of the following
with a request to publish from Con
gressman Butler B. Hare:
“The Cooperative Farm Forest Act
of 1937 provides that the Federal
government may cooperate with in
dividual states in the production, pro
curement, and distribution of trees
for reforestation. Trees suitable for
timber may be obtained at a cost of
$1.50 per thousand, and interested
persons will be able to secure full in
formation by writing the State Fores
ter, Columbia, South Carolina. I am
advised that over six million trees
were distributed to South Carolina
farmers last year, the predominating
species being slash pine and loblolly
pine. Other species are available, ex
cept ornamental or shade trees.
“It has been suggested that practi
cally any young farmer by investing
$10.00 per annum in pine trees over
a period of six or eight years and set
ting them on waste or non-forested
lands can insure himself with a liv
ing income from such timber, after he
reaches 50 years of age for the re
mainder of his life.”
