the foot while out hunting this morning.
Mr. Herrill was waiting for a friend and
rested the piece on his foot. BY some
means the piece was discharged, the con-

CHICKEN NABBED DIAMOND
A Hen in Poultry Show Developed a
Tastc for Diamond Food and
Nips a Diamond Froma Ring

A peculiar incident happened in
the exhibit OF chickens in the State
Poultry Show Tuesday in which a
spectator nearly lost a valuable dia-
monh ring. a. H. Belts. a leading
grain man, has something of a fond
ness for chickens and while walking
through the long rows OF GOODS, he
stopped before one in which a friend
ly hen of the Buff Orpington variety
stuck out its head. Mr.. Belts
naturally patted the bird on the side
Of its head, not thinking of the
possibility of the bird nipping him.
Mr.. Belts wears a valuatle diamond
ring and its sparkle attracted the eye
Of the hen Quick as a fash its beak
struck the brilliant and in q second
the hen had transferred the diamond
from the setting in the ling to a
comfortable corner in its craw. Mr..
Belts hurried over to Secretary
Scallin and wanted to know If that
hen was for sale, and explained the
serious reason he had for buying the
bird. The owner was not present
and the secretary could not say. 1t
was necessary that the diamond be
secured so one or two attendants
poured some hot water down the
throat of the bird expecting 1t to
make the hen sick and that she

noon.
There is a splendid display OF bir0s
at the show and a far greater NUM-
Der than were shown last year. Sec
Rotary Scallin said that there we're
fully 1000 of the best birds in 5lle
state at the exhibition. 1t is really
a great sight to walk through the
rows of neat looking GOODS and see
the best OF the chicken family.
These high bred birds have an en-
tirely different appearance from the
average chicken that n SEES in the
%barnyard. for they have been bred up
to a high point and are M arly the
acme of chicken p%erlectlon.
The Barred plymouth Rocks take
precedence over any other breed OF
chickens so far as numbers are con
cerned, there being about 200 birds
IN the show of this variety. All
other strains are we'll represented at
the SHOW, Including the Rhode Is
land Reds, one Of the strains which
is becoming very popular IN the
east at this time. j. T.. Schultz,

IN THE POULTRY SHOW
Some Large Exhibitors Of Fanc,
Poultry Strains are at the State
Poultry Show.

A great MANY of the visitors to
the city both for the stockmen's
meeting and the political meeting
have taken advantage of the oppor-
tunity to attend the State Poultry
Snow in the city hall building, where
they have had the opportunity to see
some of the best chickens in the
state. The Mitchell show ranks the
highest in the state for the p%resenta-
ton of the best class Of birds, and
the exhibitors never fail to send or
bring their product to this show. The
exhibit is very large and will number
very close to 1000 birds. At the
eastern state shows this nunlber of
entries is seldom larger and it speaks
we'll for the poultry industry of
South Dakota to show up SO we'll in
comparison to older states. The class
of birds that are exhibited speak for
itself. The Barred Plymouth Rocks
overshadow all cher classes in the
show, from the fact that there are
200 entries, three men alone having
one-half of the entries in this class.
The Wyandottes and the Buff Cochins
attract the attention of the visitors
and they are indeed handsome birds.
Among some of the exhibitors are
A. j. Keith, of Sioux Falls, who has
a large number of the Barred Ply
mouth Rocks, showing 80. M. j.
Gotthelf, of Sioux Falls, also has a
goodly number, which amounts to rs.
e. P. Sands, of Mitchell, has the
largest number of Barred Plymouth
Rocks, having 80 entries. VIM.
Drabs, of Yankton, makes a speciality
of the Single Comb Brown Leghorn,
and has AZ birds in his collection.
e. T. Losey, of Huron, has quite a
large variety of birds with 40 entries.
while H. P. Larson, of Beresford, is
another breeder who believes in rails
ing all kinds of birds and has 40 en-
tries of different varieties. j. F.

breeder Of the Buff and Partridge
