Three buses and several cars will be on the way early Wednes day morning. Everybody is wondering what they will see on the train which will bring 8 cars of exhibits to Newberry on Tuesday the 9th. Mark that morning on your calendar and plan to come be. tween 8:30 a. m. a n<l 12:00 noon (DS T). It is very important for the chil dren to see these exhibits. In fact it is for all of the family.

The best time to cull the average flock is in July and August. At this time of the year the good hens are still at work while the loafers have stopped for the season. Records have shown that it does not pay to keep a cull hen over a period of time in order to receive a higher price. When a hen stops laying she usually starts molting. The later a hen lays in the summer and fall the greater will be her yearly production, so that the high producer is the late layer and hence the late molter. The early molt ing hen is the “short-time” or poor layer as most heps cannot grow feathers and lay at the same time. Contrary to general belief, the early molter does not make the early win ter layer. If you want a circular on culling write to Clemson for Extension Circular 113, “How to Tell Laying Hens.” Don’t Forget Growing Pullets Pullets must have shade during the summer if they are expected to grow into profitable layers. When not pro vided with shade in order that they can keep cool they stop eating, get stunted, and do not have the normal resisbence to diseases and parasites. They sometimes become infested with Hoe vary quickly when on range and should be examined for those para sites often. A clean range providing some shade, a good growing mash, plenty of grain, in a good crop of pullets being grown out. Prepare the Laying House Put the laying house in shape early so that the pullets can be moved in when they are ready to lay. This will remove any chance of a break in the laying period because of rehandling and moving them, or because of poor housing. The roof should be in good repair, and lose sidings nailed down to prevent drafts. Give the house a thorough cleaning and disinfecting. Put fresh litter on the floor and in the nests and the bouse will be ready for the pullets. Remodel Laying House Now is a good time to remodel the laying house before the pullets are moved in. In remodeling the laying house, it would be wise to remove the dropping board and ventilate the back. The roosting poles, instead of being placed above the dropping board can be placed 16 inches above the floor. Wire is tacked beneath the poles to keep the hens out of the droppings. The chief advantages of a house without a dropping board are: 1. Birds use roosting poles a lot during the day and the droppings fall, through the wire on the floor and this means that the front of the house where nests, feed thoughs, and water fountains are located, is kept cleaner. 2. There is less injury from birds getting on and off the roosts. 3. The birds distribute themselves more evenly over the roosting space. 4. The house is easier to clean and cooler in the summer. The back of the house can be con structed in sections so that it can be opened up the same as the front. This opening is a big help in keeping the pullets cool in the fall of the year when they must be confined until broken from going back to the range. Farmers using this type of house who once had trouble with the pullets not eating nor developing as they should because of the heat when first housed, now move their pullets in during the early fall and the birds never show any signs of consuming less feed. The farmers attribute this to the coolness of the house caused by the back open, ing. BUY UNITED STATES SAVINGS BONDS AND STAMPS ON SALE AT Yl)l R IWOFFICE OR HANK America On guard!

Maybank EMPLOYES WALK OUT AT MILL IN GAFFNEY Union Places Pickets Near Plant Em ploying 1,100 Men and Women Gaffney, Sept. 3.—Union employes walked’ out at the Gaffney Manufac turing company, Cherokee county’s largest single textile plant, at 6 o’clock tonight. Pickets were placed about the mill, which, unofficial sources said, was completely shut down within 18 min utes. There were no disorders, and officials of local 269, Textile Workers Union of America (CIO), who auth orized the strike, declined to com ment. A union spokesman at a Labor Day rally Monday had announced the plant would lie closed tonight unless a union contract was signed by the management. Reports were to the effect that negotiations between the union and plant officials broke down this aiftenrioon. Workers at the plant voted the TWUA as its bargaining agency in 1938. The mill employs about 1,100 men and women, operates three shifts and has a weekly payroll of approximately $18,000.

DATES FOR SHOOTING FIXED The 1941 dove season will open Monday, December 1, and will con tinue through January 11. A bag limit of 12 birds has been fixed. In contrast to the season of last year, the new season will be curtail ed'. Last year, the season opened September 16 and continued until the end of October; then reopened the fist of the year for another period of several weeks. Fixed by U. S. Although the dates of the new season appear certain to cause num erous complaints on the part of sportsmen, it was pointed out in a letter by A. A. Richardson, chief game warden for South Carolina, that federal authorities and there is nothing that can be done locally to change the dates in this state. Twice, Mr. Richardson said in his letter, he had recommended to the U. S. Fish and Wildlife sea-vice that South Carolina be permitted to ob serve the same season as last year. Both requests, he said, had been dis regarded. LIVESTOCK AND BETTER FARM LIVING TRAIN JOHNSTON AND MAYBANK FILE EXPENSES FOR MAYOR Friends of Herman S.
