Extension Poultry Specialist Z T Brown urges farmers to keep brooder houses clean and on clean ground, move or refresh soil, and avoid attractants like spoiled milk. Move chicks to summer shelters on clean, sloping land when feathered, and plant grazing crops such as Italian rye grass and clover to purify soil and support grazing.
Contour farming in square fenced fields creates many short point rows in corners. Farmers in demonstrations remove the nuisance by rebuilding fences to follow the contour, notes Charles R. Enion of the soil conservation service. One farmer integrated point rows into a pasture, ending with similar pasture and cultivated land as before, by delaying fence buoying until grass set. Where land beside cultivated fields is rocky thin or unproductive it should not be added to cultivation.

The article lists mineral and vitamin deficiencies in hens, notes that 1937-38 Argentine wheat output nearly 6 million tons, and states cropland needs for Oregon poultry, feed automation tips, and water content in eggs.

Elizabeth C. James summarizes a Tennyson narrative of King Arthur’s death as Modred’s revolt ends, Arthur’s wounding, and Bedivere’s reluctant mission to cast Excalibur into the lake. The king questions him, accusing betrayal, while the knight contemplates the weapon’s fate and the king’s commands.
The article outlines Tennyson's romantic, often unreal life as a hero in Arthurian lore. It details the drowning of his friend Arthur Hallam, his ten year retirement, the elegy In Memoriam, his courtship and marriage to Emily Sellwood, his Poet Laureateship after Wordsworth, withdrawal from public life, and his death in 1892 at eighty three.
Sir Bedivere returns Excalibur to the lake as King Arthur commands. An arm rises from the water bearing the blade and draws it beneath the waves. Arthur dies aboard a waiting barge guided by three weeping queens while Bedivere contemplates his fate and prays for what lies beyond.
In April a 32 man unit near Valentine Texas received daily rations by aerial parachute drops. The venture, a test of airborne provisioning, used fresh meat delivered from the cooler, reflecting a likely future military practice for supplying marchers in remote areas.
In a playful tale, Old Mr Toad fears a big bear yet learns they share a fondness for ants. Buster Bear, shy and silent, invites the frightened to dine, revealing a curious bond over supper and conversation rather than menace. The scene unfolds with Burgess style whimsy as ants become the link between predator and prey.
New Castle Pennsylvania city fronts a furry crisis as roasted peanuts strip fur from squirrels. City Forester Owen P Hox urges residents to stop feeding roasted nuts and give raw goobers instead. Park squirrels in Gaston Park are described as balding due to the diet.
