COTTONTAILS ARE PLENTIFUL
Hunters Are Preparing for Active
Season Hunting Rabbits.
PARTY OF TWENTY Is FORMED
Knowing Ones VIII Not Go Out Till
Snow Flies in Abundance-In
Meantime They Are Clean
ing Up Their Guns.

Members of the Omaha Gun club are
anxiously awaiting the first real snow
fall of the season that they may pursue
the festive cottontail, OF which there are
a great number this year. A party of
twenty Omaha Gun club members have
organized rabbit club and will go out
in quest of the game when snow covers
the ground
From reports being brought back by
hunters there are worlds Of rabbits this
season to be found in large numbers on
the outskirts of the city, especially
around Florence. Two Pullman porters
went out for three hours Thursday and
returned with seven plump rabbits. They
took the car to Florence and then
walked about a mile up the river. Reports
are to the effect that the rabbits in the
lowlands and around the river bottoms
near Calhoun and Blair are infected with
"grubs," a small worm which gets in the
back of the neck and eats the flesh.
Rabbits Are Fat,
The cottontails found in the hills and
the cornfields are said to be better this
year than ever, and the meat Is both
Juicy and solid. With a little snow rabbit
hunting this year will be better than 1t
has for years. A great killing is pre-
dicted by BILLY" Townsend, the author
ity on wild game. The real old timer and
sportsman will not go out after rabbits
until the ground is covered with snow.
For awhile yesterday morning the old
sports, after watching the snow fall took
his gun off the antlers and began to oil
and grease II. 1t was with merry
whistle that he worked away on the old
trusty, but a few hours later when this
same sportsman peeped out of the win
dbw his heart suddenly dropped as he
noticed the beautiful had left.
A custom which has been abandoned for
the last three years of dragging the will
lows will probably be revived again this
year Many of the members of the gun
club are talking Of bringing back old
times by this stunt Several years ago
il was the custom of gunners TO form a
party and go out to Bellevue. There two
wagons would be rented and bound to-
gether by chains. Two horses would be
hitched to the wagons and driven through
the willows. The hunters would divide
Some would stand on the wagons and
others would walk beside them When the
rabbits were driven out by the wagons
the hunters would fire at them and II
was a very poor day that wagon load
of cottontails were not brought back IL
town there to be divided.

Sioux City Ball Park
is Being Enlarged

No longer will the sluggers OF the West
ern league be able to fatten their batting
averages in the "pillbox" at Sioux City.
Home runs, three and two-base drives
over the fence viii be a thing OF the
past The park is TO be enlarged and
made into a real base ball park, where
every batsmRn who clouts the sphere over
the fence will do so only by connecting
fairly.
Thirty feet OF the river has been filled
In with sand and clnders and the fence
will be moved farther out. Forty feet has
been acquired by the Sioux City club on
the north side and the fence at the end OF
the field also will be moved. The
grandstand will be moved back twenty
rine feet on the west side and by chang
ing the diamond around the park will
be one OF the best in the circuit.

 Poultry Advertisers and Poultry Notes

Go out from the city and where is there a farm without some sort oe poultry? Many of the city. people themselves raise poultry and find 1t pleasant and profitable.
 To get fertile eggs the hens must have plenty of insects and worms in free range, or else be fed with beef scraps and cut bone. In fact such Is necessary to get many eggs at all.
 If you want eggs. don't allow the hens to be frightened or chased by dogs. Yet give them plenty of exer1 else and fresh air. Also the premis- es must be kept in sanitary condi- ton.
 You can start in poultry without any capital at all, or ct least with none to speak of Again you may start with thousands; Uu. the chances of success are in favor of the poor man.
 The farmer need not take much time for poultry from his regular work. His wife and children can do nost of the lighter details under his dlrection-or their own If they study the business we'll.
 When you are selling eggs in teos general market for stable purpo1ee don't care whether there is rcoetef in the yard or not. but for hatcn1p there should be one rooster for evexy Z ten eggs laid daily. #

SUGGESTIONS TO FARMERS
 AND POULTRY RAISERS.

There is no need of leaving the duck out of your plans. These In. dian Runners are wonderful layers and some say they even beat the best of hens
 When eggs are not fertile they are worse than no eggs if sold for hatch ing purposes, for they damage both the one who buys and the one who sells them.
 would put in a few guineas also No farm is complete without their cheerful note. They board them selves and lay any number of eggs in springtime
 There is no difference between true science and common sense. The same good judgment applies in both. Science only goes farther and takes in more
 Hens will live and lay in any lati- tude or climate. They thrive in the far North and the extreme South. It takes no particular kind of soil to raise hens.
 Have only one breed of chickens and mate only the best specimens for breeding purposes. Sell the cullsl or use their eggs only tor table and general marlnet.
