Chenoweth tells how she gets her
chickens to lay eggs in the winter
She has seventy-tive single-comb
brown legorns which laid from thirty
to forty eggs a day during November.
Following is an extract from her
article.
"My hens have a warm dinner every
day at noon planned as carefully as
that for the family. Sometimes it is
a kettle of oats boiled in salt water,
a crock of milk and stewed pumpkin.
Sometimes it is boiled potatoes, lye
hominy and cabbage. Often it is
cooked whea with katir and oats un-
cooked.
"When tho eggs are gathered, usu-
ally at four p. m, the hens are fed as
much shelled corn as they will eat. l

Fine winter weather, not much
wind. and not very much cold,

Miss Weise is to be congratula-
ted upon the excellent program
rendered the evening of the 23rd
Of Dec, also for the beautiful
decorations of the Mt. Pleasant
school house and xmas tree.
Arapahoe treated the commu-
nifty to a splendid Christmas eve
The music and songs were
excellent. the scholars had been
given painstaking care in train
ing, and great credit is due the
teachers. Everything worked in
harmony and was appropriate to
the occasion, even good old
Santa was there and dispensed
with a lavish hand. The good
old saint was quite feature of

that alfalfa would grow only on

farmers tried it and failed. tried
