He points out that poultrymer in South Carolina have in th< past given too little thought t< keeping chickens cool in the surr mer. In the June Extension Pou ery houses, Letter, he suggest: having additional openings i r fronts and sides of poultry hou: es, whitewashing roofs of poul try buildings, providing amph drinking space, and using forcec poultry houses. air ventilation or foggcrs to coo; He says that in general brood er and laying houses have beer built with partially open fronts but that this doe3 not -provide enough ventilation in hot weather Houses that are "<$pen all the waj to the floor lev-el art much cooler than those which on Iy the top half of the front o pen.

Abulliionism as 1* movent . .-^^vay in thhj country' f with William Lloyd Cur." i as one of its archproponents. It was designed, of course, t o abolish slavery and it succeeded gloriously, for when it had done its work, four million ves were freed, in body at leasv. But before slavery was abolished the abolftioni sFs un ler many circumstances and in nany ways ways .came. to grief, The moddmg of Garrison on the streets of Boston and the tragic episode a t Harpers Ferry, are parts of t h e same sordid story, the tribulations of the abolitionists. i Just as the curse of slavery called for the abolitionists, the curse of segregation calls for the same kind of abolitionism. These ardent fighters against slavery were no. more necessary than the I current fighters against sogre?,ati< n.

Tn^ mm-al | corruption engendered would de'< stroy our nation and both the nation and democracy it espouses would perish from the earth and , possibly with them would perish >. mankind?-?-? ? , During the early stages of abI olitionism only the North, East and West produced abolitionists/* but in the later stages'they were found in the heart o(._the South, albeit they too often had to lie low. Today, however, we have i abolitionists at the South, who I are willing to stand up and he 1 counted. This is good for the South and good for the cause, but it is trouble for the abolitionists. A few years ago Virginius Dabney, brilliant editor, Rich mond-Times Dispatch, suggested in one of Tils provocative editorials that segregation on the public carriers he abolished. And throughout the entire South there was only one paper, a North Carolina weekly, that seconed his suggestion, j Negroes, of course, hailed Dabney, and are willing to crown him king of Southern abolitionI ism. When he was not supported I by the southern press, he of I course had to retreat for his life. It is quite understandable that ha i did not at that time prefer martyrdom, which was definitely in the offing had he stuck to his guns. His strategic retreat was I met with showers of shame and 3 . I abuse and criticism by Negroes, whom he was attempting to beI friend. Because he did not choose to _ become a martyr he was bitterlyderided without apparent justifi' cation. For just as some men j have a right to choose martyrdom in certain premises, others have an equal right not to chose -(Some animals, but that they cool t themselves by breathing, and by y drinking cool water. For this rcar son, it is advisable to provide a twice as much drinking space in ? hot weather. si For forced air ventilation ex B haust fans may be used by reJ versing them so that air is 1 blown into the building. Obseri vations havae shown that al-. a though the fartta will blow air di ! rectly on the birds no ill effects i results. f The use of foyers where a - mist is sprayed directly on the e birds is one of the most satisf factory methods of keeping laye ing hens cool, Mr. Gooding y states. t Poultrymen may obtain additional information o n keeping t their poultry cool from their coun ? ty agents. I In This Our Day^~ B b JH K-l \ iji B t i By C. A. Chick !? 'I he Negro Market hi H Anyone who reads Negro news . s< papers anu magazines must of a ^ necessity he astouned at the amount of business advertisements inithem from business firms own ^ ed -hy white people. I do not mean to infer that Negro news- ^ , .. s< papers and magazines are not ^ , worthy of such business patron- ^ age. They aw just as worthy of snrh .patronage as are newspaper! and magazines owned by other/ races. Thus, the only reason one p Should be surprised at such is ^ because it is so recent, and hast and is increasing so very rapid- . ly. Radios are also more and more being used to make special commercial appeals to Ne? groes. Four hundred racjio stat- ^ ions in the nation devote twenty ty eight per cent of their program g time to subjects of Negro inter- ^ pcf * ' esc. s( In addition to the foregoing, j large business concerns owned by white people are increasingly es-/ j tablishing branches in which all ( the employees fro m the man- g uger on down, are Negroes. ^ Of course the answer to why y, business firms owned by white people' are intrested in advertis J ing Tn Negro newspapers and is # magazines and such as -the rad- w | ios is simply because of the Nc? I I orrn mnrL'?t Tito murL-ot I - ,,, has existed ev&r since he has te been free. Apparently, however, ir white people, have just rcently p! discovered it. It is true however, (that the Negro's purchasing pow g ? ? gl 'martyrdom, which latter fight _ i Negroes choose so generally. More recently, we have Mrs. ei Sarah Fatten Boyle of Charlotte- K ville, assaying the role of abolit- tl ionist, who wrote a provocative m article to the press of the nation gi entitled ^'Southerners Will Like ft v Integration." Her fine gesture ct i was brought down upon her head ly the curses and calumnies of that.ct part of the Southern press eom-jtl mittod to eternalizing segregat- o! I ion. The attempt to crucify her ic I in open and flagrant! The cour-|m I age and grace she is manifesting hi in the premise is most amazing, di She most certainly is playing the part of an aholitonist and as ti 1- L A ?- ? * * Bui.ii ner pam is strewn witn m tribulation. la Much' 7>f this tribulation stem;* ni not from white segregationists pj but from Negroes themselves, ti who too often view carelessly o1 and with apparent indifference c< the sacrifices these current abo- t< i litionists are called upon t o 1; make. Says Mrs. Boyle, "You, w may be surprised to learn that( n that since I took up the banner rr of brotherhood, I have received c< more wounds and slights" ''^nd xl snubs from Negroes than frdm o white Southerners". Never in my p I life until i'I joined the humaa, ci the human race' had anyone ci questioned my sincerity, doubted U my word or asseumed that I was a other than as represented to be. p I am constantly on trial iq, the si colored group. I have repeatedly Sr been tempted to abondon the v work I am doing because of the \\ hostility and resentment and sus- e picion which I often meet in the ci minority group." tl The foregoing quotation - does a not prove that abolitionism is use n lessor unrewarding ; it o n 1 y s i jjiuvm mat it is terrioiy Ganger- p | ous aTRl thankless. It is not too g 1 early for Negroes to set about proving that such investment a.^ ii the abolitionists ara making?in- h the cause of human liberation i<4 v genuinely appreciated. The tribu- c lations of the current abolition- v ists can be minimized by a modi- n cum of appreciation on the part tl of Negroes who are the benefic-J s iaries in the premise.

This is done in varied ways.. Practically all of our agents have weekly newspaper columns. They have radio and television programs, and they hold many meetings. Talking about radio, County Agent Rogers of Florence tells me they have 12 fifteen minute programs a week. Now, folks,'. . that's 3 hours a week .on the and gab either. Each program air. . And they don't just get on takes time to prepare. But th?4<job is to reach the folks. And pays, just like when they .- ^ down and prepare their weekly - -newspaper columns 1 I know qnite a number of our' s editorial folks, over the country! who have been sent for a year. i or more to manv diffprpnt pnnn.

And these fellows tell me i there are still other countries * that don't have the information to star* with, America's agricultural great--. ^ l<?ss is largely attributable to the k "speed with which the findings of science are carried to the farm. [ FEEDER CALF SALES COMHsG ~ Louis Cato, our livestock spec^ ialist, tells me the feeder calf a sales have been arranged for the early fall: 4 September 20. York; Sept. 21, | Winnsboro; Sept. 22 Greenwood; Sept. 23, Columbia; - Sept. 24, Greenville; Sept. 27, Walterboro; Sept. 28, Lydia; and Sept., 30 ' Orangeburg. ; Many of our cattle growers are] r not equipped to feed their young cattle out and they go from , grass to .the sale a tthat time, j But more of our folk are beginning to feed their cattle out and get the extra profit that usually A comes from a?little?grain?feed- i ing. The local markets usually get sort of glutted with grass j cattle in the fall, when so many are being sold. Feeding these j out on grain for 60 to 100 days .usually pays ? ?? SHEEP For those of our time it is i hard to realize we were once a j. rather important sheep state. Ar way back in 1850 tha census shows us to have had 285,551 sheep in South Carolina. >1 They dwindled to practically i nothing in our time, about 4,000 i head in the whole state. , I often speak of change, - change, the constancy of change. - And this applies to just about everything, including sheep. For - they too now show signs of com ; ing back. We have, for the first r time 4-H sheep clubs being start ->ed. Clemson is working with t1 l)ig woolen mill at Johnsonvi. t in conducting a sheep experi' ment or demonstration. County Agents take farmers there t o i see it and they are impressed, r Our man Gus DuRant told me - the other day he had orders for * over 3,000 ewes from interested \ farmers. That order alone will almost double the state's sheep population. . . i|BOYS ARK THAT)WAY - . Last week I told you a bit a1 bout Colonel Frick's drug store, -I the heaven of delight, at Chapin r I when I was a kid in the Stone / Hills of the Dutch Fork. Now a i little more. A He had a black clock there on ( the counter with a slot in top^ -j This clock had no blanks. You .'put your nickle in. It would y! strike and out would come a h' check. The check then paid for J a 5-cent purchase of any sort, n 'Every now and then the clock - would strike twice when you put . your nickel in and out would t,: drop two E-cent checks. And on ,r| rare occasions it would give 3,' f1 But never a blank. Merchandis-| f ing was. sure honest then, t Well several of us kids made e a study of that fascinating clock, pi Soon we learned its cycle or {secret. On the sixth nickel it hi would always give two except on rare occasions and then it would give three checks on the eighth pi nickel. We used this knowledge -I to great profit after that. We'd usually have our baths, I- put on clean overalls and shirt, e and go to Chapin on Saturday t afternoons. And just about ervery t body else did too. So that clock d nt Colonel Flick's drug store woo kept Imsy.- W-e-'tf stt--around s nonchalantly; and keep a count. - As soon as five nickels had been put in, if the customer fini " f r* I " Ished^there and walked away, we'd move in and drop our nick-* tel. Usually two checks 1 would conie out, and we had doubled our purchasing power. But, alas, sometimes the clock only gonged once. Then we knew the second nigkel from that would get 3 for sure. And we wouldn't let anyone else in. Three of us had already pooled the 3 nickels had to spend that day and promptly fed the other- two in. The last one always brought 3 strikes of the clock and 3 ' hecks worth a nickel each. 1 . -h got, his one check to -i "'- as he saw fit. We had sr r agreement on what we'd Tretr with the extra "ones? AnT that was divided equally behind the store. Thus we three country boys had our first experiences in high TFnancing. And we thus multi plied our nickels for some years/ But there was no accumulation of wealth from this fruitful oper ntion. Fur uc ale tliu wholl' pi'dceeds up right that aft?jrnoon. LAGREE A. M. E.
