PIONEER CITIZEN DEAD.
ClaibOurne Day, the Last Local Rep
resentative of the Family of
William and Elizabeth Day,
Died Last Friday.

Last Friday night at nine o'clock,
death claimed one of Decorah's best
known pioneer settlers, Mr.. Clai-
bourne Day. In his death DEBORAH
loses the last representative of that
well known family of pioneers, Will
liam and Elizabeth Day, who came
to DEBORAH on the 10th of June,
1S49. The family consisted of nine
persons. The history of Winneshiek
county gives to them the unques-
toned honor of being the first set
tiers in DEBORAH.
The subject of this sketch was
born in Tazewell county, Virginia,
Aug. 6, 1926, and came to DEBORAH
with his parents in June, 1S49, set
Ting in the upper Iowa river valley.
In that same year they built the first
log house in DEBORAH on the present
site of the new Winneshiek Hotel.
In 1854 William Day built a frame
building on the site and in the lat
ter part of 1876 it was enlarged
and improved and magnificently fur
nished and reopened on Wednesday,
April 49,, 1877. Seibert's st. Paul
Band furnished music for the occa-
sion. In 1892 the hotel was sold to
A. j. McClaskey, who conducted it
for number of years. The Day
family also settled and plated the
east portion of our city. In 1857
Mr.. Day was married to Miss Emma
Parliman, no children resulting
from the union.
Mr.. Day has always been one of
Decorah's most prominent and in
f1uential citizens. He was a men,
Der of the city council for many
years, and was elected Mayor of the
city In 1886. Mr.. Day was very ac-
tive in securing the county seat for
DEBORAH in 1854. He visited Des
Moincs during the legislative ses-
sion, and used his influence, which
was strong, to have the county seat
located at DEBORAH. He had good
friends among the legislators from
other parts of the state and before
the session was over was partly ac-
quainted with every member. He
was always alive to the interests of
DEBORAH. He did other good work
for DEBORAH also, in getting the
names of most of the legislative
members to petition dividing the
Dubuque land district and establish
ing a land Office in DEBORAH. Mr..
Day was Decorah's first postmaster
also, and according to history the
off1ce was SO small at that time
that he carried it around in his hat.
y In 1870, with his brothers, he
started lumber yard where the
freight-4depot now stands
In his younger days he also dealt
extensively in cattle. Throughout
Mr.. Days long career here he has
been a respected and honored citi-
zen and his demise brings a tinge
Of sadness to the hearts of our peo-
PIE.
The funeral was held Monday af-
ternoon from the home, Rev. NJ.
Willett officiating, interment being
In Phelps cemetery. Ralph Parli-
man, a nephew from Sioux Falls,
was in attendance at the funeral, but
his brothers, John of New Orleans.
and Richard of Los Angeles, were
unable to be here.

RAISING OF POULTRY
Or. L. L. Taylor Will publish
each week a few heIpfuI
hints to poultry raIsers.

When the chicks begin TO hatch
the hens should be watched to
see that they are doing well and
if the hen is.inclined TO be rest
less, it may be necessary to give
the eggs to another hen. If
some Of the chicks seem to be
making poor progress in coming
out Of the shell after the shell is
broken and the membranes sur
rounding the chick is dry do not
try TO tear the membranes away
but take a little warm water and
moisten them and the chick will
come out in better shape. And
if you have another hen sitting
with a small number of eggs you
may take some of the newly
Matched chickens from the hen
that is Matching and give the
freshly Matched chicks to the
other hen. The number of
chickens given to a hen must be
varied according to the weather.
Twelve chicks is enough in cold
weather but in warm weather
one hen can easily take care of
eighteen or twenty chicks.
Those hens that make the best
matches should be given charge
of the chickens as they will
make the best mothers. Never
allow a sick hen or one with
scaly legs to take care of chick
ems because yon may soon find a
lot of sick chicks. All deformed
chicks and those that are very
weak should be killed at once
and then you will have no more
trouble with them. If you wish
to mark your chickens it should
be done when you take them
from the nest and the best
method is to take a small punch
which is made for the purpose
and punch between the toes in
the fine web which you will find
there. Chickens after they are
hatched should be kept inside
for a few days and they should
be placed in a coop outside un-
less the weather is cold. Coops
without floors are best unless
you are bothered with skunks or
weasels. Coops should be NOV
ed to fresh ground every day or
so in order that the chickens
may be kept in good clean places
1t is most beneficial to put your
chicken coops in an orchard or
where they can be shaded from
the sun and it is also best to
place the coops where there is
plenty Of grass as it is very ben
efcial to young chickens. Some
times the hen may begin to lay
before the chickens are old
enough to wean and if you keep
the hen in the coop she will take
care Of the chicks and lay at the
same time.
