POULTRY FEED MAKER
WRITES REGARDING
“CHICKEN TROUBLES’
Declaring tha’ there in al-
ways a good deal of sickness
among baby chicks about this
time of each year due to the
fact that eggs are saved up too
long before they are put in in-
abators, the W. J. Lawther
Mills, manufacturers of ^poultry
and stock feed*, are writing
their representatives, offering
the following ^uggesions:
“Early in the season when
the hens are not laying well
the owner will often save "p
eggs for as long as two weeks
and while many of these old
eggs will hatch, there will al-
ways be trouble due to the fact
that the yolk will be dried
down be thick and so tough
that the chick cannot absorb
it and most of these chicks will
eventually die.
“Eggs older than six or sev-
en days should not be incubat-
ed. To do so causes grief for
everyone concerned .The hatch-
ery that hatches the chicks and
the feed manufacturer are of-
ten blamed for the death loss
among chicks hatched from
old eggs when as a matter of
fact no blame is due to anyone
except the party who kept
their eggs too long.
“The greatest death loss
usually comes dumig the first
two weeks after hatching. The
chicks do not grow; they have
a short drawn up body. They
have diarrhea but just as often
they show no signs of it. The
surest way to diagnose this
trouble is to feel the lower ab-
domen with the finger tips, just
where the yolk is taken into
the body. If a small lump or
button-like form is present, it
indicates that the yolk is still
there and so badly dried and
so tough that it will never dis-
appear and the chicks can nev-
er get well. There is no cure
for this trouble and nothing
that can be done to relieve it.’’

“Writing in view of early
death, I want to record here
that ... I hold in unquestion-
ing faith to the fundamental
teachings of Jesus Christ, and
to his divinity, death and resur-
rection, and depend on his
promises for salvation.’’ —
From the will of the late Judge
Norman G. Kittrell.
Those thousands of Texans
who have read Judge KittrelPs
“layman’s sermons” which ap-
peared weekly in the Chronic-
le for the past twenty years,
need no reassurance as to the
sincere faith and belief of the
writer; and yet this resounding
reaffirmation, in the very sha-
dow of death, of the faith that
led him through life brings to
us a quickening of the heart
and an urge to consider the na-
ture of that faith more careful-
ly, to determine if we have it,
or may have it.
Judge Kittrell stated in brief
and concrete form the funda-
mentals of the faith held by all
orthodox Christians since the
days that Paul carried his gos-
pel to the Gentiles. In the di-
vinity of Christ, in his death, in
his resurrection—in these
things did the late judge be-
lieve, even as the multiplied
millions of the faithful of the
Christian world have believed
throughout the last nineteen
centuries. In this faith have
the generations of Christendom
found comfort and courage and
hope; in this faith have the in-
tolerable burdens of this life
been made light, and the vision
of a future world of beauty and
joy been opened to all who be-
lieved.
In the divinity of Christ they
believed, that he was the Son
of God on earth, that he spoke
with the authority of the Fath-
er, and that his message was
divine and inerrant. In the
death of Christ they believed
that the man of Nazareth died

on the cr'/ss between two
thieves in expiation of the sins
of the world; and in hit* reaur-
*
rection they believed that he
arose fiom the dead, that he
broke the bonds of death
for himself and for 1 all
humanity, and that he awaits
in paradise the coming of all
who-believe on him and follow
in his footsteps.
Such a faith is that has up-
held all Christianity; such faith
it is that has been the founda-
tion for the dominant civilaza-
tion of all times.
Such a faith it is upheld all
Christianity; such a faith it is
that has been the foundation
for the dominant civilazation
of all times.
And those who would now
substitute some other faith;
those who would make the
teachings of Christ some mere
philosophy of right and wrong;
those who would generalize
God into some abstract spirit
of good; those who would take
away the concrete things
which the human mind can
grasp, and in which it can find
substance, and substitute for
them vague, indefinite, unshap-
ed Conceptions of the infinite
—these persons should pause,
both for their own sake and for
the sake of those human be-
ings whom they may influence.
They should ask themselves
if their own hold on the spririt-
ual realities is as firm as was
that of the multiplied millions
who have died in this other
faith; if they have any vision
of a loving Father doing justice
in the world, of a future life
where joy and peace shall be
eternal, to equal that which
these faithful of orthodox
Christianity have had and
which has seryed them through
the centuries, only as a relig-
ion, thoroughly believed in, can
serve humanity.
Those who would find fault
with the creed of Kittrell and
the great army of men and wo-
men who have gone before
him, should withhold their
criticism; should, in all con-
science, stay their efforts t, o
break down the orthodox
Christian faith until they have
a better creed to offer; until
they have one that can bring
more inspiration to men, more
comfort in the sorrow’s of thi3
life and more hope in the face
of death.
This challenge stands al-
ways to those who would spurn
or ignore the age-old faith in,
the divinity, the death and the
resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Humanity has grasped that
faith; its reality has been made
manifest to men in their own
hearts, hose who would offer
some other creed should show
wherein their new faith would
bring more good to the world
and ring truer in the innermost
heart of every man. Can it ev-
er be done? Will any man ever
attempt it?.:—Houston Chroni-
