Get More Eggs
By More Feed,
Agent Stresses
Plenty of feed for farm poultry
flocks means more eggs, and more
eggs help assure ample food, sup
plies for this country, Great Britain,
and other countries resisting aggres
sion, County Extension Agent M. L.
Powell said this week. Keeping the
mash hoppers full, he said, is one
way farm men and farm women can
help in national defense.
Prices are good, and the Depart
ment of Agriculture will support
the market at an average of about
22 cents, Chicago basis, for the
next 2 years, he pointed out. Feed
supplies are abundant. Commer
cial poultrymen already are feeding
their flocks to get the most possi
ble eggs, so that extra eggs must
come from special feeding of farm
hens.
“Feed plenty of mash, either
home-mixed or commercial, and all
the grain the hens will clean up at
night.,’’ he said. “Keep fresh, clean
water where the hens can get it
easily at all times. Wet mash is an
excellent appetizer. It should be
fed in a crumbly state, and once
started, must be kept up. Extra
eggs will pay for the additional
work.”
Eggs are an ideal means of turn
ing Ever-Normal Granary reserves
of corn and wheat into defense
foods, the agent pointed out. Pro
duction can be maintained by better
feeding. Powdered or dried eggs
keep well and take little storage or
shipping space in proportion to their
food value. A case of 30 dozen
eggs dries down to about 10 pounds.
“Give the hens all they’ll eat this
spring,” Mr. Powell said. “Don’t
make them rustle for their feed.
Feeding for more eggs is a real op
portunity for farm men and women
to aid defense and add to their in
comes.”
TRAIN SERVICE REDUCED

THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
Summer Legumes
Have Place On
All State Farms
Summer legumes have a definite
place for soil improvement on every
farm In Butts county, and to be
effective they must cover the land
w'ell and add good quantities of or
ganic matter and nitrogen to the
soil, in the opinion of County Ex
tension Agent M. L. Powell.
Mr. Powell said there is an ad
vantage in the use of a soil-building
crop than can be used wholly or in
part for feed. He discussed the fol
lowing crops as excellent for soil
building.
Lespedeza—This is one of the best
soil conservation and improvement
crops adapted to Georgia. It cov
ers the land with a green growing
crop from early summer to frost
and the stubble protects the soil
from erosion in winter month. It
is well to plant a winter growing
crop iri lespedeza stubble to hold
nitrogen gathered by the lespedeza.
Runner Peanuts Hogged Off—
The plants of this crop cover the
land well and hogs leave the greater
part of the crop produced for soil
improvement. Hogs can graze this
crop at a profit and leave the crop
residue on the land.
Velvet Beans —If planted solid or
in corn, velvet beans have been long
recognized as a good soil-building
crop. They are usually interplanted
in corn and grazed but often too
close to be effective for soil im
provement. A bushel of velvet
beans per acre sown broadcast and
turned under will add a great deal
of fertility to the soil and will be
very effective in protecting it from
erosion.
Cowpeas—Even though an old
favorite for summer hay, cowpeas
have not been used much for soil
improvement. With a good rate of
seeding and when the plants cover
the land, the crop gives good pro
tection to the soil and will add good
amounts of plant food and organic
matter wheA turned under.
Crotalaria —This is a fairly new
crop and is adapted mostly to south
and middle Georgia. There is an
early and late strain of crotalaria
spectabillis, the variety mostly used.
The crop can be planted on pre
pared land or on small grain land
in the early spring. Some farmers
plant it in corn at laying-by time.
