CORNER FOR POULTRYMEN

In Good Words, an attractive maga-
zine published at the federal peniten-
tiary at Atlanta. the following inter-
esting article appeared:
In the southwest corner OF the big
inclosure is the prison poultry farm.
1t Is a place of interest to prisoners
and visitors alike, for 1t is one OF the
few in existence run by prisoners and
for their exclusive benefit. 1t is a
model of it's kind, fully equipped with
modern conveniencess and devices and
doing q great business, as can be real
lied when one sees the 1927 little
birds, varying In size from the ITO
large, juicy friers to the 81 tiny Rhode
Island reds just from the incubator
Besides these there are IL blue blooded
cockerels and 165 hens of the finest
strain. but the star attraction Is the
lao ducklings of kingly ancestry In
their own exclusive and special yard.
The visitor will next be shown with
pride the location Of two settings of
fancy goose eggs.
"a still greater indication OF poultry
activity Is the Al hens sitting on Is

and secured a donation of five more.
The first Matching was g. failure,
only 10 birds seeing the light of day,
but persev verance has won out and the
project Is now proving a success and
is another evidence of what practical
ideas Of prison managemen and re-
form can accomplish. Up to this time
the eggs to large extent have been
used as settings. but IL nothing un-
foreseen happens it is an assured fact
that at an early date many eggs and
some chickens will be supplied the pris-
oners from their own farm. Some have
already been furnished to the hospital
patients. About two acres of ground
are devoted to the farm and two men
are detailed for work on 1t. The main
yard is inclosed and Is divided into five
runs, with substantial house In each
and all the latest improved poultry
yard fixtures. There is a large grazing
place opening into each run, and near
this is a fine patch OF rye. To the right
of the main yard is an open yard with
IL runs and Is houses and coops for the
baby birds of different broods and many
other essentials to a first class poultry

WHY NOT IN SAN FRANCISCOf
The town council of lola. Kan. went
on rampage and passed such laws
detrimental to dogs and dog owners
that the town rose up in protest and
a petition signed by some 500 persons
demanding the right to vote on the law
has been handed In, and it is a pretty
safe bet, after the people get through
voicing their, sentiments on the ques-
tion. the aforesaid law Will go in the
waste basket
Which reminds us that our muzzling
supervisors are at 1t again. They go
after the dog, but the sand wagons still
leak, and a hundred and one things
that need attention are pigeon holed
in order that the dogs may be muzzled.
Autos continue to speed and KILL but
the dog must be muzzled so that he
may be teased and annoyed by man
