Teach Young Chickens 70
Find High Roosts

Because over-crowding in small
coops placed near the ground tends
to injure the health of young chick
ems, it is advisable to teach them
to use perch roosts as early as pos
sible and practicable. This state
ment was made by James G. Hal
pin, in charge Of the poultry de-
partment of the University of Wis
consin's College of Agriculture
Mr.. Halpin also lays much of the
blame for mortality among young
chickens from roup and similar dis
eases during the early winter
months to neglect on the part of
their owners in seeing that they
are placed on roosts early in the
season.
When chickens are left out on
frosty nights in an improvised shell
ter they are sure to huddle closely
together. In this way the bodily
temperature is raised above normal,
and they become easily subject to
colds, which often leads to fatal
diseases. Improper housing me-
thods also retard feather develop
ment which is so important to fowls
in northern states.

A BIT OF LOCAL HISTORY

To settle dispute which had
arisen over the date of the Junction
Mills fire the JOURNAL files were
called into use, and as others may
be interested we will take space
here to print the findings.
The fire which destroyed the
junction Mills was discovered
about twelve O'Clock Friday eve-
ming, August ID, 1896, and in a
short time the old building was
totally destroyed, leaving only the
big chimney, which still stands as
a monument for the famous old
land mark. The old mill was con-
structed in 1866 by Messrs. Cox &
Andrews, Geo. Fortune coming into
the partnership soon after. The
industry was prosperous one for
several seasons, but the coming of
new mills, especially at Mime
apolis, combined with the expense
of additional machinery and build
ing, made the plant a losing prop
osition, and six years before the
fire it was abandoned and was fast
going to decay,
Another historical incident under
discussion in this connection was
the great flood which caused about
a $4,000 loss in River Falls and
immediate vicinity. The flood oc-
cured on Tuesday evening, May Is,

LOCAL PRIEST TO The RESCUE

Will Grant was annoyed last week
by the persistent attentions of q
very much inebriated individual
who was too drunk to help himself
or navigate. Not having his car,
he looked around for some sort of
conveyance and CHANGED to see
Father Hopdegard of River Falls
drive up in his car, stop and alight.
Approaching him, Grant breach
ed the subject of ride for the sim
full weakling who had fallen by the
wayside, to the good priest whose
charity was large, but not of the
dimension that would permit of
turning his car into a municipal
patrol wagon.
"But!" said the good father, his
brows gathering with perplexity, II
can't possibly do it, you know, my
car is full"
Don't let that bother you, Faith
err" grinned Grant, the man is
full too!"-Hudson STAR Observer.
