An incrausing amount of interest
In being manifested in this section
in raising of sheep. Announcement
sms mads thin week that a lamb
slaughtering and canning demon-
stration will be given by the oounty
agent and home demonstration agent
Friday and 'Saturday at the home
of John Schlitfler Of Flint Cheek.
Ijx connection with this announce-
ment, Geo. K. Warren, county agent,
made the following statement: “Many
fanners in Young oounty are now us-
ing sheep as a source of cash in-
come, and more flocks are being add-
ed. .Recently R. V. Burns started
a flock of 100 on his farm; Job*
* SchUttier added 40 ewes to hia flock;
and G. E. Caskey was a third far-
mer in Urn Flint Creak territory to
start a flock. E. E. Brockman ot
Murray enlarged his flock last fall

So the sheep story grows in
bung county. Shicp' not only pro-
dues fine meat when- properly fatten
.id slaughtered, hut a well bred,
carefully managed flock can add
ntagy dollars income to hundreds of
farms In Young county without les-
sening other c«h crops. For the
inexperienced, it is best to start in
a mooest way and grow into a good
ailed farm flock, which can no* only
kedp the weeds down,h»t actually

Makes
[it On Turkeys
JudgeS. A. Penix
. Rotary Speaker
County agent G. R. Warrtn call*
attention to the splendid record in
turkey raising -mads by Qint Heard,
member of the Boy*’ 4-H Club of
Ingles id*. This boy started his
first year of club work with five
turkey hens and an expense of ISO
for 60 bushels of grain and about
270 gallons of skim milk. He sold
the turkeys-produced for 1186, clear-
ing a profit of |185.00. la addition
he saved 13 of the Ifest young hens
for 1932 breeders.
Early in 1B31 Clint asked the
county agent and members of his
4-H club at Iitgleside' to cull his
mother's chicken flock and start
him on a turkey demonstration. Ha
learned to pen the turkey hens to
save hunting the eggs and possible
losses; to range them away from
the chickens to prevent black hand;
to keep the young poults dry dating
the early weeks; to feed wall aad
provide ample minerals to pr
docked prices from crooked breast
also a group of wethers. , G.
Watson of Promt plans to secure
about 50 awes with which \fl start bones: and to feed his turkeys well ‘
a flock on his sheep range W. T. during the finishing period in order ‘
to make them grade No. 1, this com-
manding several cents per pound
more than for the No. 2 turkeys
of Otney second a bend of ewes for iQ often produced when finished, on
Air” <4 as tbs subject of an inter-
esting talk given by Judge 8. A.
Pauls at the Rotary Club luncheon
Friday. Judge Penix pointed out
that for hundreds of years there
had been practically no occasion to
argua the point of ownership or
rights of the air, but that with the
progress made by aerdnauliSs this
is becoming a question of more in-
terest from the legal standpoint.—.
Early. English history, the speaker,
recalled records ,©ne instance in
which a ruling waa made on rights
of the ah', assigning to the land
owner undisputed possession of the
atmosphere overlying his property.
A recent ruling by an.Ohio court
was discussed at amde length, giving
as a modern precedent the theory
that the aij; is public property and
of it nuy not be restrained un-
less such use constitutes a. mouses
or nuisance.
