The visitors were pleased wl, h the appearance of a flock of 240 pullets that have been rtsirod in confinement with the use of a concrete sJah.

The new hou-e attracted conuldeiahl interest, it is a two-third span and is constructed of » composition hoard. The roosts are located away from the back wall ns a means of preventing crowding. The next stop ut -.he day was one that appealed to the Cumber land Chicken Men considerably. It was at the /ami of Harry Canfell at Hammonton. Mr. Carrell keeps from twelve to fifteen .hundred layers on' three acrw uf ground and has been able to keep down contamination df diseases nnd Intestinal parasite* tor a period of thlrt—n year*. Here was seen one of the best pullet C*>clts that the vis! tore had looked at throughout the entire day. These pullets were reared in yards, which were plowed and seeded three times during the season. .Mr. Carrell foaiows thl* practice as a means of controlling

sanitary conditions.

The tour ended with :hls stop at five o'clock and a number of paultrymcn expressed the opinion ♦hat it has been one of the best attended and one of the most successful of any they had ever

taken.

DOINGS OF YOUR NEIGHBORS (Continued from Page One) Hancock, are planning quite an extensive trip thin fall which will take them id the western coast. Both Mr. and Mrs. Hancock have a host of friends in Cape May and Cumt.e-land Counties who will be wishing them well when they start on their Journey. While In the West Mr. Hancock plans to moke a study of of the large co-operative aiwociaitons and will no doubt obtain a lot of valuable information. Mr. Hancock is Master of the Cumberland County Pomona Grange and Preisdent of the State Federation of County Boards of Agri-

culture.

Low Price on Tomatoes We read In an Eastern Shore of Maryland paper that tomatoes were selling for 9 to 12 cents per basket. Cumberland County fann- . are getting but a few cents ire per basket. At such price*, hardly pays a farmer -n: to the factory. We hardly expect to read of any fanner "jumping his contract" this season. Many tomatoes in Cumberland County are being crated and shipped to New York and Phila-

delphia.

Unmnallv Fine Dahlias Ben Lawton. Rio Grande, bos some of thi finest dahlias that we have ever seen. The fiulwen* are of immense size and beautiful colorings. Mr. Lawton is in the gas and oil business, and dahlias constitute his bobby. His dahlia garden Is surely evidence what he knows a "thing or o" al»om raising then)

Farm on Lartre Scale Mike .Nnrdolll and sons, of I Cedarvllle. are possibly farming on a more extensive walo «han any other farmers in that section. The Narellls operate several farms. This year they have had In over 125 acres of beans nnd between 26 an.l 30 acres of let-

tuce.

Heavy Wirt The Cheapest The practice of screening in the dropping boards with heavy wire is one of the most important

I stops In the poultry-men's cam-

paign against coccidlosis. round worms and diseases. Thomas Mas-

aick. of Dorothy, has been using

this precaution for a number 'of years, but up to Just recently he has been using the ordinary grade of light wire that is on the market. There is a heavy grade of wire on the market known as number 16 gauge, inch and a half m<*h. that serves the punxwe much better and it it this type of wire that Mr. Massick is using at present. His ex-

; perience has been that the light

wire lasts lere than a year while the heavy wire will last at leant four or five years, and possibly longer. When the time of Installing this wire is taken into consideration, the heavy wire !■ found to be considerably cheaper, and the Bock is better protected from contamination from the

droppings.

A Vineland poultryman. R. X. Ayres, has flgur.-d out that the eggs saved by the use of inch and a half mesh sire more than pays for the cost of installing it. This is another Item in favor of wiring the dropping boards. Sanitation Pays Alternating runs, continuous supply of green stuff and certain precautions against outside contamination. are factors that have contributed largely to Harry Carrel I’m suoevre in keeping down disease in his snail plant al Hammonton. His experience goes a long way toward proving that it is possible to keep away from bad infestations of intestinal parasltre and diseases by proper sanitary precautions. Mr. Carrell's plant Is limited to three acres. He uses alternate runs and keeps two or three crops growing in the runs each year. He not only plows the runs but -spades t lie corners, which 1* j a vital factor in keeping conlamination down. Mr. Carrell says that his loss of birds through disease Is very small. The looks of his pullets surely Indicated that this statement was entirely true. His pullets had been on ch' ground ever , since they were old enough to go oul-

Produce Easily Seen

On<-

feature we admire iboitf E. O. Howell's roadside market stand, at his farm on the Shore IJoad uonr Swalnton. is that It arranged so that the produce shows up well from the highway. We also noticed that all of the baskets had a price mark on | them. Mrs. Howell remarked Shat Those two features are an advantage to both the person waiting on the stand, as well as to' customers, since they can drive up to the stand, see what la for sale, together with the price, without having lo ask any ques-

tions about It.

CONTINUED FROM UNCLE BILL S PAGE (Continued from Page Two) dress the girl wore was a checkered om. You colored the dress solid red. So send In one of this week's drawings. Y'ou may

win a prize.

Dear Katherine: Your coloring was neatly done, but you forgot to color the border and also the grass near th<

Shiloh

The Demm Grape D. P. Haley, of Eldora. has quite a wonderful grape which is good enough to be lestod out as a prospective commercial variety in this section. The grape ia unusually large In size and has an excellent flavor. It is of about the same color as the Couoord and ripens about the same time. Mr. Haley obtain.*! the original vine on his farm from Captain Steven Jefferson, of South Dennis. The original vine grown by Captain Jefferson was presented to him by Father Degun, a Catholic priest who was once stationed at Cape May City. Father Dognn is said lo have brought the grape vine from Holland. Mr. Haley calls his the Dogan grape. A young Englishman. who once visited Mr. Haley, said It was the old English

grape.

Captain Jefferson once raised a cluster of the grapes which weighed 316 pounds. Mr. Holey has had clusters of them weighing over one pound each. Prospects For Big Crop Joseph Kohle. Ocean View, has six acres of redskins which he estimates will yield about 1500 bushels. He bases tWs estimation on the quality of potatoes which ho has dug from a certain number of hills. Mr. Kohle also has) a splendid patch of nitabagao. Mr. Kohle rents a market stall in the municipal market in Atlantic City. He says that be is confident that a similar market in Wildwood would work to a big advantage to Cape May County farmers.

Dear Mary So you are only eight years old and In the fourth grade. That is certainly tli.c. You must be a very good p::pil. Glad that you find a lot ui pleasure In coloring the drawing-. You'll surely win another prize if you continue sending them in. Dear William: Your coloring was good, but you. too. failed to colore the border and also the grass near the tree. Keep trying and you may he a prize winner one of these

days.

Dear Dorothy: You did not give your last name and while 1 am sure I know it. you must, if you want to win a prize, mention your name and address and age every time you submit a colored drawing. Glad to know- you enjoy coloring and are going to keep on trying. Dear Esther: So you enjoy the Children's page? You can rest assured that 1 will do all I can to make it intteresting. Don't slop sending in drawings Just because you didn't wl na prize. The best rule of success is to keep at It. Dear Lena: Sorry you didn't win a box of crayons. Don't let that discourage you. however, for many, many people do not succeed in their endeavors al fliwt. UNCLE BILL.
