THRD7T—PLUS SATISFACTION
Tte open house at the hatchery
Saturday was well attended "with*
callers dropping- in throughout the
day. During- the forenoon William
Wisener of 3M3ehigan State College
held an autopsy laboratory in the
basement of the Savings Bank building. Here the public was invited to
bring any diseased birds for diagnosis and many availed themselves of
the opportunity.
The program was really launched
Friday night with a banquet served
in the dining room of the Methodist
church to 60 invited guests, patrons
and friends, of the hatchery. Chicken
and fish were the choice of the menu.
Among the out of town guests were
Pat Chapman of Detroit, Dr. Jacoby
of Ann Arbor, 3M3. C. Moore of 3Mich-
igan State College, who • spoke on
the World's Poultry Congress, which
is to1 be held this summer in Cleveland. It is the biggest event of an
agricultural nature which will occur
in tlie nation this year. It is held
every third year, the previous one at
Leipzig, Germany. Delegates from
all over the world attend and all
types of fowl are displayed even to
the original jungle fowl.
Arno Dennerlein of Chicago, who
is a nutrition specialist in the poultry field, spoke on the problem of
hatchability. He brought out the
fact thalt 600 million chicks are
hatched annually in the U S. and
than to get that number a billion
eggs are used. By proper methods
this loss could be reduced thereby
enabling the hatchery to cut down
loss and pass the savings on to cus-1
tamers and higher prices to the producer. 3Mr. Dennerlein also spoke at
the high school Saturday afternoon.
Tom Woodbury of Homer and Earl
Lowden of Rives Junction were also
guests. 3Mr. 3Lowden, who conducts
a hatchery of his own, showed several reels of film taken on a trip
through the Rocky Mountains and
other points of interest Future
Farmers from Chelsea, Manchester,
Ypsilanti and Milan were present
and each chapter was presented
five tickets for the World Poultry.
Congress, a gift from the Saline
Hatchery.
Many prizes were offered in conjunction with the guest day. On
entering the hatchery each caller
was greeted iby C. ML Meredith of
Ypsilanti, a -representative of the
firm. He had .charge of registrations
and*,all names' "were placed in a box.
3tn the -evening 'drawings were held
and' first prize of an electric brooder
went, to 3MCrs. C. Schittenhelm, route
2, Chelsea; 2nd prize, 50 Standard
mating chicks," Omiah Bernard, Saline: 3rd, 25 chicks, George W
Knapp, route 5, Ann1 Arbor.
Adjacent to 3M3r. Meridith was the
Full-O-Pep display in charge of
Tom WooBury" " representing ■ the
Quaker Oats Company, by whom it
is made. He was inviting .everybody to guess the number of kernels
of oats in a quart jar. Prizes for
this were 25 chicks, which went to
Florence Wiedmeyer; and 25 pounds
of chick starter which was a tie
between Gertrude Salaska of Ypsi
lanti-and E. H. Milner of Ann, Arbor.
A handsome Barred Rock cockerel
belonging to Howard (3Fritz) Le-
3Baron wag the subject of another
contest. He was given no feed for
12 hours and then at 8 o'clock in
the evening he was fed bats. The
idea was to guess how many kernals
of oats the bird ate in a half hour.
3First prize of 100 pounds of egg
mash went to Henry Burns; 2nd
prize, 50 pounds, Joseph SchaiMe;
3rd prize, 25 pounds, 3Prof. J. S.
Lathers,   Ypsilanti.
Four ROP cockerels belonging to
Harry Dawson of the Fairlane Poultry Farm of 3Milan were on display;
two were White Rocks and two were
Barred Rocks. This contest was to
guess the dam's record, which for
those hot familiar with poultry,
means the egg laying record of the
female; 1st prize, 5-gal. fountain,
to C. E Downing; 2nd, 3-gal. fountain,- Lawrence Tucker; 3rd, four
baby chick feeders) H. Rentschler.
Leo Salaska of Ypsilanti, a flock
owner, was on hand explaining quality and other benefits of flocks from
the famous strain obtained at the
Saline Hatchery.
R. L. Chapman, representing the
Jameswiay Company, had an interesting1 display of equipment which
includes everything for the barn as
well as poultry needs, a revelation
about what metal products are now
available.
Mr. Woodbury had an interesting
article called "Cerebphyl" now contained in poultry foods but used by
Mayo Brothers for the human body
at their sanitarium. It is expected
that this product will be more generally 3known and used before many
years  have  passed.
At the meeting to the school
auditorium Saturday afternoon drawings were also held at the close
of the speeches with the following
results: 1st prize,. 100 pounds of
chick starter and 50 chicks to-{
Garth R. Beckington, Saline; 2nd,
50 pounds of chick starter and 25
chicks, 3Mrs. R. 3H. Bamer, Ann Aribor; 3rd, 50 pounds of chick starter,
O. C. Hagan, Saline.

mother were as they sat listening
to the records which by some magical touch of the needle brought
forth entertainment which until
then had never ibeen-'r possible to private homes. Although the orchestras, bands and readings had a peculiar metallic sound, still it marked
a beginning in the ■ chain Of events
leading up to more advanced methods   of sound   transference.
Edison spent long hours in his
laboratory perfecting a phonograph
and one which went a long way
toward making possible the reproduction of audible-.'sounds without
the metallic rasp,    .k j
The first crude machines with the
long funnel shaped horn from which
grand opera and comedy commingled were replaced with newer models
in neat appearing and compact cabinets. The horn was hidden in the
cabinet .These represented more
elegance and good taste and were
higher priced.
3In every ^community there was
always a first, ipachine. To this
home came the friends of the community and many pleasant evenings
were spent listening to the recordings of great artists in the field of
music. Later lectures and comedy
were   made   possible   also.
Then, came the discovery of radio.
Crystal sets were soon followed. by
battery sets, ear .""phones- by ioud
speakers. Who does not remember
the distressing" experience of having
the battery go "dead" just as * the
climax of your favorite program
was   reached."    '. ■     ' *■■' -*"    "'-'
In remote sections of the United
Stktes where electricity is not yet
available, principally in the mountains, these sets., .are" still, in. use.
Not many, families are able to have
even these and so stations - called
"listening' posts" have ibeen established. Here they come from 20
miles "and'more to listen to their
favorite program. Generally they
are organized in groups. Women are
fond of the household programs and
like some comedy. The men listen
attentively to the farming bulletins
and all ages 3tike the comedians.
How que.er it would seem to us to
choose -which day of the week we
would enjoy the radio* and then decide which programs we would prefer. It might be a good experience
and make us more appreciative of
blessings we take for granted along
with the air we breathe and the
sunlight we enjoy.
Scientific investigations did not
stop when the "battery set was perfected. Engineers went right on
experimenting and the electric radio
was the result. Soon sets could
he purchased which would bring in
programs from coast to coast. Now
we sit complacently by the fireside
and listen to broadcasts originating
in South Africa, Egypt or the isles
of  the  sea.
Even with such performance we
had not reached the zenith. Scientists were working on the idea of
transmitting pictures of the actors
while performing before the "mike."
Probably changes will come in television even as they did in sound
broadcasting. When perfected, undoubtedly the artists will look back
on mere sound broadcasting much
as we think of the silent movie today. Why not take a trip to the
attic and look through some of the
old magazines and newspapers. You
will enjoy the pictures and see the
changes which modern discoveries
have  brought  about.
