ADAMS It takes high egg production to make a profit when eggs are cheap If your hens are net produc¬ ing as they should, then make a systematic check. Check lights, ventilation, feed con- umption, protein level, feeder space, and waterers. Some of the checks to make on light; are: (c> at least 14 hours cf light per day <b> height of bulb should be about seven feet from flcor (cr bulbs should be free of dust, and have reflectors (d) provide at least ■no 100-Watt bulb for 300 square eet of floor space <ei replace burned-out buLhs. Ventilate house by opening the South side. Have no cracks in wall that are supposed to be closed. Small cracks cause a draft. Feed consumption Ls not feed waste. Hens that weigh five pounds average and are laying about 70% should eat about 8% pounds of feed per hen per month. Too Lw a protein feed will life t production The protein level of total ration should not de le; than 16%. Scratch feed lew in protein; mash is high. If y u are feeding scratch and -i 20' laying mash to layers, f ed less scratch than you do ma h, about 60 pounds of mash t 40 pounds of scratch. Hens should never be forced tc hop ever their feed troughs. They will walk around or un¬ der, if possible, thus the feed will stay cleaner. Hens eat more feed if their troughs are low; at least 4 inches of trough space per hen should be pro¬ vided. Hens like clean water that is not too cold or too hot. Enough waterers should be previdd to allow all hens to drink within 15 minutes alter feeding. Frozen founts can't water hens. Water spillage will cau e trouble in winter. Keep litter as dry as possible, especially in winter. Keep grit and oyster shells before hems; keep them clean and stirred Check yarn- layers regularly and keep trouble away. • Called meeting Trenton Lodge No. 179 F. & A.

Gene Castleberry, reporter ALL of the money we collected last year... from ALL of our passenger business... TOTAL 522 mill PASSENGER REVENUE amounted to about ONE THIRD of our total TAX BILL! VC'hat happened TO all these tax dollars? Many of them never got very "far from home”, In fact $14 Vx million ended up in state, county and local tax treasuries along the lines of the Southern. Here they went to work for your community — helping to pay for schools and their maintenance ... police and fire protection .. . highways and streets ... many other vital public services. As a taxpayer, yourself, it is personally important to you that the railroads contribute, through their tax payments, to the support of your community. It also is important to you that the railroads pay all their own costs of doing business, without help from the taxpayers. But the railroads cannot forever continue as taxpaying, self-supporting private enterprises if they must forever continue to compete for business with transportation agencies supported in part by your tax dollars, and ours. No industry can! President SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM Washington, d. c.

PHONE 323 Clayton County HISTORIC BATTLEGROUND, PROGRESSIVE FARMING SECTION Named after distinguished Georgia statesman Augustin Smith Clayton, Clayton county is a busy agricultural area, with a growing livestock, dairying and poultry raising indus¬ try. The county was the scene of much of the action in the world-famous book "Gone With The Wind”. The bitterly- contested Battle of Jonesboro, fought during The War Between The States, resulted in Union forces cutting the last railroad line into Atlanta, necessitating its evacuation by the Confederates. Jonesboro, Clayton County Seat, is a thriving small city engaged in a forward-looking program of improvement of schools and municipal facilities. In Clayton County and throughout Georgia, the U.S. Brewers Foundation works constantly to assure the sale of beer and ale under pleasant, orderly conditions. Believing that strict law enforcement serves the best interests of the people of Georgia, the Foundation stresses close cooperation with the Armed Forces, law enforcement and governing officials in its continuing "seif-regulation” program.
