C. Adams, county ag¬ ricultural agent, declared this w r eek. "Cull the laying flock careful¬ ly and remove any non-produc¬ ers and low producers,” Mr. Ad¬ ams urged. “Any hens that have started to moult already are not profitable producers and should be culled from the flock. ‘"This close culling is especia- ly important with the feed situation and feed prices,” the county agent said. carefully will leave more feed profitable layers and for being raised for this fall’s flock.

Since egg duction depends on feed sumption, feeding should be followed which encourage layers to eat feed. Laying mash should kept before the hens at all and scratch grain fed late the afternoon. Feeding or mpistended mash during middle of the day will help increase mash consumption. Laying hens should be ded with plenty of clean, water and with oyster shell all times, Mr. Adams A good supply of water be kept in the shade near troughs and a container of ter shell should be kept ‘Make sure hens are not crowded and that adequate tilation is provided during weather,” the agent •‘See that there is plenty of and roost space for the flock and that the house is ventilated but not drafty. “Infestation of lice and will reduce the vitality of laying flock and cut egg duction,” he added. “If and mites are found, start trol measures immediately.” Sand Mountain News Mrs. Una Belle Stone The revival meeting closed the Church of Christ day night.

Adams this week advised Dade County dairy farmers to pro¬ duce and save every possible pound of roughage this summer. “Use pastures and grazing crops as much as possible to keep dairy herds in good con¬ dition and to maintain milk production,” Mr. Adams urged. “Plant additional grazing crops for late summer and be¬ gin planning now r for fall and winter grazing. Save all of the dry roughage possible this summer to use for next winter’s feeding. “Take full advantage of the oat crop which has just been harvested and lay in a supply of oats for future use,” the coun¬ ty agent continued. “At least half of the concentrate feed for dairy cows can be made up of home-grown cereal grains. During the feed emergency, take beter care of the better producing cows, Mr. Adams rec- omended. If it becomes neces¬ sary to sell any of the cows in the herd, sell the lowest pro¬ ducing cows.

S, Personnel Due to a reduction in appro¬ priation for Selective Service for the fiscal year of 1947, reduction is being made in personnel or working hours in Draft Boards all over the country. Local Board No. 1, Dade County, Tren¬ ton, Georgia, having only one employee, announces the follow¬ ing schedule, effective July 1, 1946: The office hours will be as follows until further notice: Monday, Tuesday and Wednes¬ day, open 7 a. m., close 4 p. m. Thursday, open 7 a. m., close 2 p. m., with one hour for lunch on each of these days. The of¬ fice will be closed all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Mrs. Virginia P. Page, Clerk. ket, he pointed out. Cows that have all the good grazing they can eat and good quality rough- age at night will produce nearly three-fourths as much milk as they will on a normal grain ration. “Don’t sell good cows now,” Mr. Adams advised. “It will be most difficult to find good pro¬ ducers to replace them later. Provide grazing and roughages for the dairy herd and, if neces¬ sary, accept a reduction in milk production per cow, but avoid sacrificing high producing cows because of the feed emergency.” NUMBER 27.
