Through this plan, baby chicks, young turkeys and poultry feed are provided on a basis. The plan put chickens and turkeys through the valleys and up the mountains, enabling many farm families, once on relief, to clear $1,000 a year. The turkey and broiler enterprises are helped materially by Mutual Cold Storage and the Rockingham both loPoultry Marketing Co-ocally owned and locally operated organizations. The poultry marketing group processes as much as $6,000 worth of produce per year. In a heavy run, 6,000 turkeys or 4,000 broilers are picked, cleaned, cut up and frozen in a day. The plant employs more than 200 local workers with a payroll of $250,000 a year. Timberville also has a canning factory that handles 60,000 bushels of peaches and 300,000 bushels of apples during a good fruit year, likewise, it would be unfair to ignore Timberville's 100 to 500 carloads of fresh peaches annually, which go out by rail. Freight revenues on outgoing produce was more than $30,000 during a single busy month in 1944, which did not include loads of fruit that went out by truck. Tall tales about Timberville! Nevertheless true. And these things "didn't just happen," Mr. Cox concludes. "Take that poultry processing plant it was built on faith. There was only $50 on hand when operations started in 1940. Farmers saw their folly of flooding the markets and letting things pile up as surpluses. They realized that processing could be done where the produce is grown.

California now boasts of the largest plow in the world, a Paul Bunyan model if there ever was one. It plows a furrow three feet wide and six feet three-quarte- hour. The reason for such a plow is that much good land in the San Luis Rey valley was covered by sand during a flood in 1916. The gigantic plow was built to dig deep into the ground and turn up the good soil and bury the sand. The fertility of the land is thus restored and ready for farmi- ng. The cost of bringing the rich soil to the surface is from $50 to $100 an acre. .v. ONES the groom ... Privatebrideand The is 17.

Although Bryan Menzie of the soil conservation office is not particularly fond of rattlesnakes, he carries pictures of them around with him. Also, he likes to tell of how he captured more than 200 of them in one den on the Bill Stanton ranch, seven miles north of Chamberlain. Jackly, who is a rattlesnake authority, designed two traps which were built by Bruce Campbell and Merle Thompson. The snake traps were set and the catch in them totaled more than 100 rattlers in recent weeks. Last fall over 125 rattlers were taken from the same den. It is the picture of these well-fille- d traps that Menzie carries around to show his friends. $5,000 anj id From Single Den 1903; Sold for M. al-!- 7- - North Dakota Man Traps 200 Snakes WHAT DID "A" BOMB DO? . . .
