Brooklyn Life Insurance COMPANY.

Attention is directed to the an

Lite Insurance company which ap-
pears in today's CHRONICLE. Mr..
J.. q. Aston, of Centreville, is
general agent of the company.
Referring to this company, the
Daily Stockholders, OF New York
says:
''Last year it increased it's new
business sixty per cent over the
amount written in 1890. and did it
without any disproportionate in
crease In expenses. 1t also in.
creased its assets, which now stand
to its liabilities in the ratio of 10,
or III by the former New York
standard. We noe that in The
ratio OF net assets to risks in force
the Brooklyn stands higher than
any company organized under New
York laws, Or 1926, the average
being l7,77. Its prompt payment
OF claims is proverbial, and, in gen
eral, the Brooklyn Life would seem
to commend itself to any man who
desires, in a life company, sound
ness, liberal treatment and accepta-
bic plans.

| l. y. Barker of Thornton, Ind, who
stands among the leaders of poultry grow
ers. is here as the judge and a score card
from Barker" is something that all
growers covet.
On entering the door one finds a long
row of we'll kept coops containing some
splendid specimens of the chicken family;
Great big Light Brahmas, some weighing
as much as ten pounds and from these
coops on back to the rear of the large
room are, Dark Brahmas, Buff Cochins,
White Cochins, Barred Plymouth Rocks,
White Plymouth Rock, Wyandottes,
Silver Spangled Hamburgs. Black Minor
cas-, Black and Red Breasted games, Ban
tams. Pekin ducks and others that delight
the hearts of chicken fanciers.
The display will be complete by noon
today and is we'll worth visit TO the room.
The birds" as their owners call them are
neat and well kept and show what good
breeding means as plainly in thse chickens
as it does IN fine horses.
There are a large number of Wichita
citizens VINO are enthusiasts in the chicken
growing business, as their exhibits show,
aud to one not initiated their knowledge
of chicken lore is simply dumfounding.
The casual visitor could probably judge
the chicken better when it was served up
fried, boiled, roasted, stewed, baked or
fricassed, but all must admire the beauty
of those exhibited.

Away away! the track is white,


The moon shines clearly out tonight;
The wintry winds are sleeping"
Sleighing SHOWS in Kansas are not fire..
quent, but now that we have one, every.
body seems to be enjoying it. Up to a late
hour last night the streets were thronged
with many people, getting all the pleasure
possible out of the novelty.
Where all the sIeighs came from was a
wonder to the people of Sunny Kansas,
where, generally, snow is as scarce as the
proverbial hens teeth; but they managed
to find them somewhere, and while many
consisted of store box on a pair
of homemade runners, there were
many swell turn outs, some large family
sleighs with liveried drivers and swell
body and Portland cutters without
number.
While the lads and lassies enjoy the
sleighing and the average citizen swears
when the police tell him to clean off his
sidewalk, the farmer smiles and shakes
hands with himself when be thinks OF
what a glorious yield of wheat be will
