McMahan aaaaaaaaaaaa This Week's Personality is Burton B Kenimer, Ris¬ . . ing Fawn merchan and farm¬ er. wha got his first-glimpse of life in 1903 at Henegar, Ala. The son of a rural mail car¬ rier. Mr. Kenimer attended the grammar and high schools of Flat Rock, Ala., a Methodist school, and Birmingham South¬ ern College. He was then qual¬ ified to teach in Alabama schools, which he did for se¬ veral years In 1926. he married Miss Rho- newyn Gaines, who was also a teacher. They ctntinued their profes ions together in Chat¬ tooga and Walker County schools. Being with children was al¬ ways a source of pleasure for the K nimers and made teach¬ ing an enjoyable experience; however, always in the back of their minds lurked the desire to settle down and make a real home. The opp rtunity was given them when their first child, .Joye, was born in 1929 A year later, Mr. Kenimer moved his family to Fla. Rock, where he built a home and began farm¬ ing. During the year 1933, he was in Hollywood, Florida, helping with the enlarging of the Ri¬ verside Military Academy. 1935 saw him in Rising Fawn in the mploy of his cousin, W. H. Kenimer and R. P. Fricks. (The store was later taken over by Mr. Fricks.) , Mr. Burton Kenimer then w rked on both mountains and up and down the valley with a rolling s ore” getting acquaint¬ ed with many fine people. He was forced to retire from this work due to ill health, so he built a small store and filling station at Rising Fawn which he and his wife operate. Though the years have come to them four more children, Carol, a student at the Univer¬ sity cf Georgia, Don, who at¬ tends Dade High, Sam and Bob, students at Rising Fawn Junior High, and a son-in-law, W. M. Austin, who married Joyce. Wha. spare time Mr. Keni¬ mer has is spent across the creek, on his farm, which he enjoys improving a little at a time. The boys also have an interest in fjbrming, especially since they are raising a 4-H steer each. The Kenimer family resides in an attractive white, asphalt- shingled home, which Mr. K. drew the plans for,, and built himself. Gannon Suggests Tips On Growing Strong Pullets “Use good feeds and see that pullets have plenty,” says Ar¬ thur Gannon, Extension Ser¬ vice poultryman, in giving tips to thousands of Georgians who are expected to grow out com¬ mercial laying flocks for the first time in 1952. Pullets can be grown to lay¬ ing age in confinement, but it is better to move them from the brooder house to range shelters on pasture at six to 10 weeks of age, Gannon explain¬ ed this week. Gannon advises placing mash in feeders in the morning for birds to eat by 2 P. M. Grains then should be scattered over She ground in the afternoon. “Af.er pullets begin to lay, move them at once to their P^manent laying house where they will be kept in confine- fment from then on,” the poul- | speciali5t advises . It may be desirable to cut down on feed after the birds galn full body , weight, he says. Gannon said that the College o{ Agriculture Extension Ser- vice a .
