Throw them some green feed now and

At the end of the starvation period
begin feeding heavily with mashes

to cattle and horses on the farm. This
feed will start new coat of feathers
Immediately. The starvation period
tends to cause the feathers to become
ripe and ready to fall Then when the
heavy feeding commences the new
feathers will form underneath and
push the old ones out as it were, and

Dropping Boards.

One of the most important fixtures
for the poultry house is the dropping
board, and at the same time 1t is the
only thing of all others that is most
often neglected. In many otherwise
we'll constructed houses you will find
the dropping board has been forgot
ten, and should one have been pro-
vided it is allowed to remain filthy
for weeks and even months. Filth is
allowed to accumulate and fowls are
forced to breathe the disease-laden air
night after night until they begin to
sicken and die, when all at once their
owner concludes that perhaps it is
time to clean the house. How much
easier it is to have a dropping board
constructed under the roost and clean
it each day! Just few minutes time
and the work is done. Every few days
throw a few handfuls of lime on the
board and disease will have no chance
to start.

FIRST NUMBER FINE

Every Way

Monday evening as the first attrac-
ton in the Tribune lecture course.
more than made good with his audi
ence. There were any number of
the patrons of the entertainment who
pronounced it the best thing of the
kind they ever heard.
Mr.. Kemp's reading of the pretty
story OF 'Sevenoaks. which for the
purpose he had dramatized into a
FIVE act play, in which he imperson-
ated all the characters, was fault
less, and he had the audience either
laughing or wiping tears, as he chose
to move them.
While Mr.. Kemp's entertainment
was good the patrons of the lecture
course are promised three equally
good, and to some they will be bet
ter entertainments, in the three re-
naming numbers, Joseth G. Camp,
the Midland Concert company and

Parsifai.

"Parsifaf' has come and gone.
There may have been plays better
presented before Greeley audience
but the writer has not seen them.
The play is based on the legends
OF the Holy Grail, that sacred cup of
the Savi0r's blood, Of which poets
and musicians have sung for CEN
turtles, and has been happily adapted
by its author, William Lynch Rob-
erts, from Wolfram Won Eschen-
bach's poem, Partial, which was
also the basis for Richard Wagner's
opera OF the same name. The com
pany that presented Parsifal last
THURSDAY night were well able to
carry out the spirit OF the play and
it is hard to understand how pagan
seutation without something Of a
moral uplifu. Between the perfect
stagecraft and the talent of the
acrortolks it was easy to forget its
make believe and to live and enter
into the scenes as they passed before
one.
From some quarters we have heard
that Parsifal is very immoral in-
deed" but there be people who
would put a peek-a boo waist on the
Venus de Milo and breech clout on
Apollo Belyidere, and not few of
these stiff necks reside right here in
Greeley.
We are glad we saw Parsifal, how
ever.

RHEUMATIC FOLKS!

Mrs. L. T. Weidman, living at

DOUBLE POPULATION
Vote in County Shows Enormous
Increase

There were 1000 votes cast in
Weld county on Nov. 6 which was
fully 1000 more than it was esti-
mated would be the result. The
various politicians based their esti-
mate on the vote that would be cast
Oh the registration in Greeley.
The big vote shows that there has
been great increase in population
in the rural districts and that the
vote was com paratively heavier there
than in the city of Greeley.
1t is safe to put 1t that not more
than % per cent of the total popula-
tion OF the county voted this cleo
tion, which would give the county a
population of 2s, 900. But even that
Is probably too light, as more than
likely only 20 per cent of the popu-
lation voted, which would give the
county population OF 30, 600. o. al
most double what it was five years
ago.

Devils Auction.

Charles H. 1ale's Everlasting
DEVILS Auction which has for
twenty-four years held the confidence
of the theatregoing public to the
extent of annually resurrecting the
Standing Room Only" sign in all
cities from the Atlantic to the
Pacific coast, announces that the
present seasons production of this
phenomenal show-piece will un-
doubtedly be the best that has yet
been presented. 1t will appear at
the Greeley opera house tonight,
Thursday. Nov. %. Statuesque NJ.
Ella Aubrey has been engaged to
play the hero, Carlos, in the Devil s
Auction company. Miss Aubrey is a
stately beauty of the Gibson type
and is in direct contrast to Miss
Helen A. Gilmore, a dashing bru-
nette and the Count Fortune of the
play. Further contrast can be found
in the Golden haired Miss Marie
Elmer: the American beauty, Miss
Edna West or the dainty Partisan
type of Miss Kitty st. Clair. In
fact, in conjunction with the prin-
cipal dancers. seeundos, coryphees
and ballerine. who represent almost
eyrry nationality from all parts OF
the globe, it is safe to say that rhe
25th edition of the Devils Auc-
tioni has established a congress OF
beauty in more ways than one.
With each succeeding year Man
ager Charles II. Yale evolves new
edition for his Everlasting DEVILS
Auction" each one of which sur
passes its predecessor with the
beauties of its ensembles. scenic
grandeur and marvellous baIlets.
The production for this, the 25th
continuous year of success, will be
far and away ahead of former pre-
sentations Of this wonderful play.

be done with an engine and elevator

TRY TO GUESS.
WHAT WILL BE GPEELEYS
POPULATION IN 1907?
New Tribune City Directory
Will Tell You and Pay
You for the Best
Guess

How many people has Greeley:
That is the question that will
mean $40 TO the lucky guessers
Work on the fifth annual volume of
the Tribune's Greeley City and
Rural Directory began this morning,
and in view Of the fact that in con-
nection with the Tribune's directory
each year a very careful house-to-
house census is taken along with the
canvas Of the city for names, giving
an accurate count Of population. the
question naturally arises. How
many people has Greeley now. and
what has been its growth since last
year:' The last Tribune directory
gave Greeley $500 people. 1t is
quite probable the town has grown
nearly a thousand since the last
count Of noses was made. and if ap-
pearances go for anything the new
book should show at least 1850.
To lend interest 10 the matter the
Tribune offers three prizes. of s., So.
and 81 for the nearest correct guesses
of the city's population according
to the new directory's count. All
gueSses must be in the Office by Jan.

A new g-1cess Of handling pota-
