Things To Forget

Forget the SANDER you have
heard.
Forget the hasty, unkind word.
Forget the quarrel and the cause,
Forget the whole affair, because
Forgetting is the only way.
Forget the storm of yesterday,
Forget the chap whose sour face
Forgets to smile in any place.
Forget the weather if it's bad.
Forget the trials you have had,
Forget the knocker, he's a freak,
Forget him seven days a week.
Forget you're not a millionaire,
Forget the gray streaks in your
hair,
Forget the home team lost the
game,
Forget the pitcher was to blame.
Forget the coffee when it's cold,
Forget to kick, forget to scold.
Forget t h e plumbers awful
charge
Forget the iceman's bill is large.
Forget the coal man and his
weights.
Forget the heat in summer days
Forget whenever you may roam,
Forget the duck who wrote this
poem,
Forget that he, in social bliss,
Forgot himself when he wrote
this.
Forget these things of all de-

PROPER DIMENSIONS
OF IDEAL HENHOUSE

There are as many types Of chicken
houses as there are of poultry raisers
and but few of these houses approach
the ideal, asserts N. L. Harris super
intendent of the poultry plant, Kansas
State Agricultural college.
The ideal chicken house should be
at least twenty feet long and eighteen
feet wide. The height should be such
as will be convenient to the operator
about nine feet III front and not less
than four feet at the back. With
house of these dimensions there will
be no frozen combs even in severe win
ter weather. Frozen combs usually re-
suit from keeping poultry in small
houses.
There is no question that cement is
the best floor for poultry houses, since
such a floor is sanitary, vermin proof
and easily cleaned.
The manner of lighting and ventilat-
ing a poultry house is always impor-
tant, in the opinion Of Mr.. Harris Too
Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1917-01-12

much glass raises the temperature in
the day and permits rapid radiation at
night. The resulting wide variation
of day and night temperatures is al
ways injurious to the health of the
fowls.
Probably the best means of providing
adequate light and ventilation is to
have two windows in the south side of
the building with a cloth curtain be-
tween. During stormy days, while the
curtain is closed, the windows will pro-
vide sufficient light, and the curtains
will allow sufficient ventilation without
permitting drafts.

Many New Counties Proposed

County division is going to
play no unimportant part before
the present legislature. The di-
vision bills for Selway, Butte and
Camas counties have already APP
peared. There is no question
but what the Lake county bill
will be launched while division
issues are expected from Canyon
and Bannock counties. There is
even a possibility that similar
measures will come from old
Fremont county.
Representatives Quinlan and
Hussman, of Idaho county, are
behind the Selway county mea-
sure. This bill names Kooskia
as the county seat. 1t included
approximately 5000 square miles
of what is now Idaho county, the
largest in the state with 1850
square miles. Selway county, as
proposed, is typically a river
county, Representative Quinlan
says. 1t forms the territory east
o f Cottonwood and north O f
Grangeville lying tributary to
the south fork and middle fork
of the Clearwater river. 1t has
Is per cent of the population of
Idaho county and an assessed val
uation of $2,500,000. Two years
ago the people Of Idaho county
demonstrated by popular vote
they favored allowing Selway
county to secede. For that rea-
son it is not believed now an en-
abling act to the bill is necessary.
The border counties of what is
proposed to be Selway and Idaho,
Lewis and Clearwater counties
and the state of Montana. In
cluded with the proposed terri
tory is the great Selway national
forest. The Indian lands within
it will add 100000 to the as
sessed valuation.
In addition to Selway county,
division is sought two ways in
Canyon county. The Payette
end of that county wants to be
cut off, while the Nampa end
has the same ambition. Both
desire to be county seats. The
Canyon county delegation is
divided but a majority favor the
Payette end if it comes to a part
ing with part of the territory.
County division has also sprung
up in Bannock county where
Downey and Grace wish to be-
come county seats. 1t is said
county division was not an issue
in the campaign. Pocatello and
other towns are fighting it. the
Fremont county delegation eau
cused and decided against divi-
sion of that county. The Lake
county division bill will soon be
launched in the house. A dele
cation of division advocates from
that county are now in the city.
