Freight rate talks end without progress in North Carolina
Governor Craig conferred with President Tate and the North Carolina Freight Rate Association on the state freight problem. Sessions were contentious with no clear agreement on relief methods or state action, though a focus on Wilmington as leasing point emerged briefly. Meanwhile county finances improved as Lenoir County settled its annual accounts and Salisbury courthouse proceedings moved toward hearings. A drowning near Pamlico Sound and a fatal deputy shooting in Asheville added to a day of local calamities.

FEED CHICKENS IN SUMMER
The common view that farm flocks need no grain feed in summer is unlikely. Egg yield improves with daily feed, and the flock size and range influence needs. Wheat barley and oats work, plus meat and corn. always provide dry bran. An open box suffices if no hopper is available.
Poultry Care Tips From A Practical Note
The note emphasizes daily feeding, shade for birds, and prioritizing healthy breeding stock for strong chicks. It advises air-slaked lime to control lice and parasites, cautious chick feeding to prevent bowel trouble, camphor in water for minor bowel issues, and keeping fresh water available twice daily. It also suggests onions for ducks and turkeys to improve appetite and health.
