GEORGIA COTTON CROP
FULLY A MONTH LATE
M, F, Austin, of Austin & Rait,
Says Chopping Is Just
Becoming General
M. F. Austin, of Austin & Rait, in passing
through Atlanta says:
"Out on the firing line” away from the
long distance view? of the weather map, I am
disnpjiolntcd in the prospects for a full crop in
the Carol!nns and Georgia. During the past
three weeks I have had the privilege of close
observation in the fields of the three eastern
state referred to and find that on the whole
this erhp is fully n month late on the average,
Wdly in the grass in many parts, and, while
some excellent fielde are to be seen, chopping
Is just becoming general at this late date in
June. An excellent oat crop was harvested
and corn is in extremely fine condition all of
which will be a help and work on cotton is
being pushed with old-time vim and vigor ae
there Is a general realization that but a small
evop can be raised wlta the strong hope of full
prices.

HAYWARD & CLARK COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, La., June 19.—The most
Important news overnight was suspension of the
head of the bureau of statistics at Washington,
thus casting doubt on the last bureau report.
The press reports two important financial fail
ures in Germany, showing a basis of the re
peatedly voiced apprehension of financial trou
bles in that country.
Consols unchanged, rentes 5 lower; silver %
oft. Weather conditions continue very good.
Partly cloudy and warm weather without ex-
ceases over the entlrfe belt. Further good gen
eral rains .over west Texas. Some scattered
showers ip Oklahoma and the eastern tsates.
Indications are for partly cloudy weather with
some scattered showers and continued warm.
Any claim of excessive heat which, moreover,
could only apply to very limited areas, it at
once defeated by the official statistics of 1911, #
the record crop year, which shows, for many
days In June, maximums a good deal higher
than those prevailing at present. The Into
sight for the week looks around 30,<ioo bales,
against 37,822 last year. We compare with
mill takings of 193,000 last year. Owing to
the exportation of May tenders from New York
and from here, which cotton is no being land-
a ed abroad, mill takings for the week should
compare bullisbJy with those of laBt year. The
market lost about 8 points in the early trading,
but there was no presure to sell and prices
are steady around 11.55 for December.

How to Care for Late Hatched
Chflckemis >
T HIS has been a very favor
able year for raising chick
ens, and the breeders who
have continued to set and hatch
throughout the entire season have
been fortunate as they will find
during, next winter and spring if
they have pullets of different ages
that they will give, them a uni
form supply of eggs and they will
not all begin laying at the same
time. This is one mistake that
many breeders make. They do
not hatch enough chickens at
different times during the year so
as to have a uniform supply of
eggs. But, this season has been
unusually good. The only trouble
has been that enough people have
not paid attention to their chick
ens and hatched off as many as
they should have done. Thou
sands .of eggs have been set dur
ing this month and many chickens
will be hatched in June. The cool
weather has made it splendid for
developing these young chicks and
they have not suffered from heat.
They have continued to grow and
as a rule young chickens have
done better this year than they
have in many years past on ac
count of it being dry and cool.
The people who have attended to
their chickens will certainly be
rewarded for it.
As we can expect warm weath
er soon you should be very care
ful and watch out for Insects,
which is the greatest drawback
we have in raising young chicks
over the entire south. The prem
ises that they inhabit should be
kept clean, should be sprayed at
least once every two weeks with
some of the disinfectants that are advertised in The Journal, and can
be had so conveniently now that a few years ago we could not get
these materials. Young chickens should not be crowded too many to
gether. It will stunt them and keep them from growing if you attempt
to keep too many in one place. Twenty-five to thirty-five broiler or
frying size chickens are as many as should be kept in an ordinary
brooder coop 3 feet by 4 feet. Of course if you have a house 10 feet
by 10 feet after young chickens are feathered and frying size 76 to 100
can be kept in a house of this size.
Young growing chicks should be provided now with a good range
so as to make them scratch for the tender sprouted grain, and fix a
that this can be had, by all means spade up the yard and sow it in grain
so as to make them scratch for the tenper sprouted grain, and fix a
good deep scratch pen where it can be well filled with litter of some
kind, alfalfa hay preferred. The young chickens should be provided with
plenty shade and" fresh water should be given them at least twice a
day. Keep the drinking vessels clean and use some good disinfectant in
the drinking water at least twice a week.
They .should have a variety of food. The ordinary scratch feed
should be fed bountifully at least twice a day, what they will eat up
with a relish, and one feed of boiled oats which should have some meat
scraps and alfalfa meal mixed with them and mixed afterwards with
equal parts df bran, shorts and corn meal or any of the dry mash feeds.
By cooking this food Yn the morning it is cooled and ready to feed in
the afternoon. Young chickens will enjoy it and nothing will make
them grow faster. It is bulky, it will fill their systems with food that
can be easily digested, it will start the growing frame inside and will
give them a capacity after they are grwn to consume lots of food which
they will afterwards utilize in the making of eggs. A chicken’s future
usefulness depends altogether on the way it has been raisd while young,
and if you wish a large supply of eggs next winter you cannot watch
too closely and pay too much attention to the way you are feeding and
growing your young stock now that you will have to depend on hereafter
to make you, njoney. .>
In this day and time of strong competition the only man who cap
make a good per cent of profit out of any lfne of Work is the one who
watches the lfttl details and knows how to produce fowls that will give
him an extra few dozen eggs per hen per year for the same feed and
afternoon. The same thing applies to the number of acres of ground
that are cultivated and the merchandise and manufacturing business
that the most can be gotten out of for the least expense. But in poul
try and live stock the proper feeding with the right kind of breeding
is the only way possible by which any one can stay in the business and
make a profit out of it, and above all
things the young stock must he rais
ed right.

Loafing on Job
(By Associated Press.)
PARIS* Jiaiie 19.—Reasoning: that
moving pictures of the chamber of dep
uties would stimulate pride and pa
triotism throughout France the clerk,
on his own responsibility and privately,
gave permission to a cinematograph
company to work its camera in the ex
ecutive hall. While the three-year
military service pill was under consid
eration a machine was installed and
ran several hours before the deputies
knew anything about it. Only fifteen
members were in their seats and some
of them were yawning, eyen snoring
away the dull h-Qurs* only rousing when
a vote was called for and then voting
the proxies of the 400 absentees. Final
ly the news got around and there was
a remarkable change. The bar was de
serted and there was no dozing, no
yawning, no stretching, but pretty
much strutting, fine gesticulating and
a general effort to look solemn and
wise.

MRS. B. H. R.
ANSWER.
There is evidently something
wrong in the way you are feeding
or your chickens are from weak
parent stock. It may be possible
that you have upset thefr digestive
organs the first week of their
lives. When this is done it is a
hard matte*r to get chickens to do
anything. ’ They should have the
first week or ten days just what
little chick feed they will eat up
every two hours, removing that
they do not eat. Keep plenty of
fresh water before them in a
clean earth»en or metal vessel,
never use a wooden trough as they
are often poison. After they are
ten days odd Aunt Patsy can be
kept before them at all times in a
trough, either wood or metal, cov
ered with l-^inch screen wfre so
that they can get this food in suf
ficient quantity through the wire
without wastftng it. but you should
continue to feed the scratch feed
every two or three hours just the
nme. , With plenty green food and
other feeds for a variety such as
cracked rice, whole wheat should
be added from time to time, simply
using judgment. Keep them hun
gry, but their appetites satisfied
every two hours. When this is
done there is no reason why the
tittle chickens should not do well.
If their Wings become long and
droop clip the feathers with a pair
of r cissors. It will help them. Do
not crowd them, and keep them in
a dry place off of the ground.

QUESTION.
Hilltonia, Ga.
Please give me the names and ad
dresses of the different sanitariums
in Atlanta with whom I might con
tract to furnish a certain number of
dozen fresh eggs each week. Reply
through The Journal.
H. J.
ANSWER.
There are a number of different
sanitariums in Atlanta, Davis-Fisch-
er. Elkin Goldsmith, Wesley Memo
rial, Tabernacle Infirmary, Grady
Hospital, Piedmont Sanitarium, St.
Joseph’s Infirmary, also many hotels
and clubs. None of these will con
tract with you for eggs unless you
agree to give a certain number every
week in the year, and you will have
to prove to these that yoq can do
this by supplying them during the
summer and fall months before you
can close a yearly contract.
QUESTION.
Winnsboro, S. C.
Thanks for all . previous informa
tion. Please tell how long ought you
to feed developing food to chicks
and after that what is best to feed
them, what grain food, etc. Thanks
for an early reply.
H. S. L.
ANSWER.
The best way to feed the develop
ing food to little chicks is by keep
ing it constantly before them in self
feeding hoppers dry where they can
get it at*all times, and in addition
to this once a day they should have
boiled oats mixed with their equal
of developing food and given to
them in a stiff mash. This should
be continued until they are fairly
well grown, and once a day they
should have a feed of any of the
scratch feeds offered on the market.
