There’s money in the poultry
business. Take H. J. Hardin’s word
for it. And after 15 years of being
one of Georgia’s leading poultry
men, Mr. Hardin should know
whereof he speaks. Mere concrete
proof is his farm located seven
miles from Culloden, where there
is a hatchery capable of handling
16,000 eggs at one time. So that’s
why Mr. Hardin believes the pos
sibilities for cash income in poul
t I raising are “as great or great
er than any other phase of farm
ing.” But it doesn't come the easy
way. Listen to Mr. Hardin:
“A poultryman with good stock
should make from $1 to $3 per
bird per year. But it’s a seven-day
job for 24 hours a day, and even
then you’ve got to be willing to
take losses along with the profits.”
The Culloden farmer speaks
from years of experience. His ear
ly efforts at chicken and egg pro
duction were marked with success
until a disease known as “range
paralysis” attacked his flock and
forced him eventually to sell ev
ery bird. He started back and met
the same problems again. But now,
through good breeding, he is on
top again. His success was crown
ed with distinction at the recent
Georgia National Egg Laying Con
test. Mr. Hardin’s specialty is (he
Rhode Island Red.
And so. Mr. Hardin does not hes
itate to pass on to you his belief
that there’s money in the poul
try business.
FAITHFUL SERVICE: “No oth
er single agency has done more for
the developement of America than
railroads,” writes R. H. Markham,
in the Christian Science Monitor.
“Their service, is prodigious, their
payroll enormous, their relations
to the public exemplary. Taken as
a whole, railroad employes are
arhong the most stable and pros
perous of Americans. Their inde
pendent spirit and sobriety make
them admirable citizens; their
magnificent loyalty preserves our
sleek fliers as the safest, most
comfortable, most reliable vehicles

Univ. Of Ga. Paper
Concludes Drive
In two successive weeks, the
Red and Black, campus weekly
newspaper at the University of
Georgia, has brought to a success
ful conclusion its two major edi
torial campaigns of recent years.
In last Friday’s issue, the Red
and Black announced that a new
infirmary would be built on the
campus this year, thus concluding j
the paper’s oldest editorial cam- !
P a i£ n - Efforts to secure a new in
firmary were begun almost ten
years ago.
Judge S. Price Gilbert, former
Georgia Supreme Court Justice,
made the donation for the erection
of this building, totalling $100,000,
in honor of his father and son,
Georgia alumni.
In the previous week’s paper,
it was announced that women
cheer leaders had been secured for
all home football games this fall.
This campaign was begun two
years ago.
Stanford Smith, Macon, is pres
ent editor-in-chief, and Robert

Many Gas Pumps
Found Incorre7ct
Ward comes from the State Rev
enue Department that it found 2,-
492 gasoline pumps giving incor
rect measure last fiscal year. How
ever, that was sharply under the
6,917 pumping shortage ten years
ago when regulatory oil inspection
was made a function of govern
ment, it was pointed out.
The oil inspection unit of the
tax collection agency also report
ed that only 52,205 gallons of “il
legal” gasoline was condemned
last year, compared with 9.676,-
314 gallons confiscated in 1930.
The agency declared that prob
ably not more than one per cent
of all gasoline failing to meet
standards was adulterated inten
tionally. In most of these cases the
adulteration was by mixing with
kerosene. As a double check on
the quality of gasoline and other
fuels sold the public, the labora
tory keeps eight inspectors on the
road drawing samples from the
service station pumps.
