The latest advise to skaters is to
stay on the ice if they would keep
from drowning. John Burch, a
16 year old Muncy boy had a mar
row escape from death by drown
ing while skating at that place.
He, and several of his 10y friends
were playing tag on the ice and
when young Burch ran out on the
bank of the pond he stepped on
some boards covering well used to
flood the pond. The boards broke
through, letting him down into the
well which contained a good
amount of water. A rope was Sc
cured from nearby house and was
finally slipped over his shoulders.
He was taken to his home and will
recover.

Several thousand years ago, gentleman
named Esop told little story that has dis
tinct application right here:
GA fox was once caught in a trap by his
TAIL and, in order to get away was forced to
leave it behind. Knowing that without tail
he would be a laughing-stock for all his fellows
he resolved to try to induce them to part with
theirs. So at the next assembly of foxes, he
made speech on the unproitableness of tails
in general, and the inconvenience of fox's
tail in particular, adding that he had never felt
SO easy as he had since he had given up his
own When he sat down, sly old fellow rose,
and waving his long brush with graceful air,
said with a sneer, that if, like the last speaker,

further would have been needed

should certainly vote in favor of

1t gives us much pleasure to an
nOunce to the public that Mr.: r. w.
McROberts has purchased an interest
in the drug store of his father, Mr.. r.
f McROherts. For the past six years
he has worked in the store in which
time he has Thoroughly learned the
business and his courtesy and strict
attention to business has made him
very popular among the people of Lam
caster and Garrard county. He en-
tiers business already established by
his father who by his fair dealings and
thoroughness has always commanded
large per cent of the drug business
from this county. We feel sure that
by the new interest Of such capable
young man the new firm will continue
to prosper and that their business will
increase as the years roll by. The
style of the new firm will be r. E..

The route mapped out is one of the
most beautiful that could be secured
anywhere, and will be run under the

Council MEETING.

The City Council met Tuesday
night and passed the GENE mt walk Or
dinance. 1t will be published in next
weeks issue.
On being asked about the enforce
ment Of the concrete ordinance City
Attorney L. L. Walker made the fol
lowing statement ON behalf of the
City Council.
There is no doubt that the City
Council has full and complete power
to require property owners to con-
struct concrete pavements. The
Court of Appeals has decided that the
City Council is the sole judge of the
necessity of the pavement and of the
kind and character that should be
built. 1t is time that Lancaster
should begin to put down concrete
yet there is no disposition on the part
of the City Council or any of the city
officers to force anyone to make these
pavements, unless it becomes abSo-
lutely necessary in order to get them.
1t is hoped that our citizens and prop
erty owners will realize the benefit of
such improvements and make them
voluntarily. There is no doubt that
they will enhance the value of the
property five or ten times as much as
the cost of the pavements. Anyone
can see the great advantage by in
speeding the pavements recently put
down on Richmond street, and OBJ
serve how much the appearance of the
homes there are improved by the con-
struction Of these up-to-date side
walks. Every adjoining town, and in
fact almost every town in the State
has put them in. We should not de-
lay any longer, but our citizens should
do this improving voluntarily and not
put the city to the trouble and an
nOyance Of requiring it to be done.
I think they should first be construct
ed around the Public Square, as this
is place that is used by everybody
that comes to Lancaster, and any i'm
prOvemene made on the Public Square
is benefit t0all of our people. both
in the town and in the county as well
as those who visit US from the outside
The City Council expects to fix up the
Square this Fall and put it in as good
condition as our limited means will
permit. know the public will ap-
preciate the fact that the town has
been to great expense in erecting
and maintaining our water works sys-
tenn. but we are saving every ceet pos
slble and hope In the near future to
fix up all the streets In good condition
as well as to macadamize some Of the
new streets. We trust that the peO-
pie will accept the conditions as they
should, and will all join in undertak-
ing to- improve our little city, and
with good streets, good sidewalks and
good schools we will advance along
with other prosperous and up-to-date
towns. Let the work begin a. soon as
possible.

ABOUT EARLY MATCHING

the eggs laid month or two months
later and the eggs set for Matching
had a much higher market value.
To all these losses add little for the
extra coal oil burned to keep incuba-
tors and breeders at the proper
temperature IN the winter months.
Add up these items, subtract the total
from the amount of profit you can
make per hen under the most favor
able circumstances and what's the
answer?
But mark you l don't favor late
Matching either. There is a golden
mean in everything and for myself l
prefer to hatch in March and April.
A good deal depends on the man
himself. A customer of mine brought
off large hatch late in June and
had most of them laying in Novem-
Der but this man was an experienced
and very clever poultry raiser. | am
quite sure that [ could not have
equalled his performance myself and,
to tell the truth I wouldn't care to do
it anyway. like pullet to be well
matured before it begins to lay.
1t will perhaps be said that there is
a profit in the early broilers but this
idea is, for the most part delusion
and snare. Brothers are a necessary
incident, had almost said a neces'
sary evil to chicken raising; but With
feed in the neighborhood of two cents
a pound the broiIers are marketed at
a loss nine times out of ten. Scarcely
one of us but had, when new to the
business, rosy hued dreams Of the
fortune we we're to make by keeping
incubators and breeders busy six
months of the year turning out broil-
ers. But we are not doing it.
1t is a good idea to hatch out few
January cOckerels. They are avail
able for breeding in September ii you
want eggs for fall Matching and they
can be mated when year old with
pullets as we'll as hens. And if you
have any sale for breeding stock 1t is
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-01-01

good thing to have few big we'll
matured cockerels on hand in the fall
when buyers begin to look around.
To sum up then: am opposed to
January and February Matching but
favor MAJ Oh and April. l think that,
upon the whole, the experienced
poultry raiser will get the best re-
suits from March birds and that the
man of smaller experience will be as
well pleased with the results he gets
from an April hatch. May chickens
can be raised to be profitable winter
layers but good feeding and good care
are especially necessary with them as
there is not much marign for delay,
they must be kept growing all the
time.
