THE ELK'S CONVENTION
AT PETOSKEY

Some East Jordan lassie Is going to
he ''up in the air" speaking literally
lin June, for the Petoskey Elks lodge
has arranged for the most popular
young lady in this city to take trip in
a hydro-aeroplane during the state
convention to be held June %, "a and
%. The lady will be selected by vote
in a contest which will soon be under
way.
East Jordan is otherwise especially
interested in the convention, for the
local Elks, some fifteen in number
hold their memberships in Petoskey.
The delegation will be small, butch
my! when you see them in those purple
and white suits, with the 200 Petoskey
Eks, marching behind the Little Trav'
erse Bay sea serpent, you will say,
'some class.
Speaking Of sea serpen's The one
constructed for the parade IS is feet
long, has wings, seven-foot tongue,
can spit smoke and fire, and is ''reg
ular" dragon In every way. II is only
one of the comical features of the par
AIDE.
Elks and their ladies will be enter
tanned in royal fashion in Petoskey
during the convention. There will be
boat and auto rides, theatres, dance:
and everything else desirable that the
entertainment committees can think of
Petoskey will be trimmed systematical
ly from one end to another, there will
be fireworks and lots of excitement.
All Michigan is looking toward the
convention city. The event will be
one of the greatest celebrations. thai
Northern Michigan has ever seen.
But it is not only for Elks. True
there will be some 5000 of them there
but outsiders will likewise be well
come.
An auto party from Petoskey was in
East Jordan Wednesday making some
necessary arrangements. Those in the
party were:-Lou S. Darling, exalted
ruler of Petoskey lodge; F. d. Varnum
chairman OF the entertainment commit
tee; Will Cartright and Archie Hickox
of the auto and airship committee; and
r. Ray Baker, chairman of the public
ity committee.

REMOVE THE ROOSTER
FROM THE FLOCK

The hens will lay as well, and in
many instances better, without the
presence of the male birds in the flock
Fertile eggs will spoil much quicker
in the hot summer weather than those
which are infertile. Since it is the
presence of the male birds which cause
fertile eggs, and these are really de-
sired only during the Matching season,
they should be removed from the
flocks for the rest of the year.
Buyers will pay better prices for
fresh, infertile eggs than for fertile
ones.
For Michigan the breeding season
should be finished by the middle of
May. Disposing Of the ROSTERS at that
time would certainly be an important
step in helping to improve the condi-
ton of market eggs during the hot
summer months. 1t is estimated that
the increase in profit to the farmers
of the state would be at least a half
million dollars (S50O,00000).
In Kentucky and Tennessee, Satur-
day, May 16, is to be known as Rooster
Day. Announcements will be made to
that effect in all the schools on Friday,
May Is. State ide'movements will be
made to encourage the removal of the
ROSTERS from the flocks on that day.
1t would be an excellent start for the
uplift of Michigan poultry conditions if
the poultry raisers in Michigan would
designate Saturday, May %, as the day
on which all male birds should be
killed, sold, or removed from the flock.
