The backyard poultry flock rarely will con sst of over 20 or 25 hens, and in many cases of no more than or 10, or occa- sionany of only 3 or 4. For a flock of 20 to 25 hens a space of not less than 25 by 30 feet should be available Nor a yard Where less space is available, the size of the flock should be reduced, al- lowing on the average of 20 to 30 square feet per bird
 A few hens are sometimes kept sue cessfully with a smaller yard allowance than this, but if the space is available a yard of the size indicated should be used

CLEAN YARDS IMPERATIVE

Cleanliness is imperative in backyard poultry keeping. Poultry in small back yards leave so much droppings on the land they occupy that unless the drop pings are frequently removed the soil soon becomes foul The backyard poul- try keeper has to take as much pains to keep his yard sanitary as to keep the floor of the poultry house sanitary. Lack of thoroughness in cleaning and dsinfecting small yards is responsible for much more disease and debility than insa nitary interior ground spaces.
 Measures to prevent lice and mites should also be followed systematically and thoroughly in backyard poultry keeping While the neglected farm poultry house is often overrun with lice to the detriment of the flock, the hens on farm have so much better oppor- tunities than those in the small back yard to rid themselves of lice that a little slaekness on the part of the keeper in measures to prevent lice is not likely to give the parasites such a start as the same negligence would in the case of

Gamers figure sixty baskets to the

willing to contract for ten cents a

sucb a demand for the product that
the price last season jumped more
than ten times what it was a few
wears ago. In some sections during

last season has stimulated much in

Among the most important industries In the city

this one of the most important industries in this city,
but 1t is equally important to the entire southwest
Few of our people know how modemly equipped
and complete is this great industry, for to describe
with any degree of funess In writing almost mpos
sibe. Nothing short of personal inspection can ex-
cept in limited degree, do proper credit.
There is no reason why this plant should not sup
ply the meat products for this section of the country,
for surely they have as good facilities for turning out
their products do the larger plants east of here and
to quality they can match those of any other packing
plant and one trial will convince you that they do So
The only difference in the Peyton products and
the products of other packing plants is in the name of
the brands with the big advantage in favor of PeytOns
in quality, price and Made in FL Paso.

Welded IN HARLAN

Miss Ina Montgomery and Earl
Thomas were married last Sunday
afternoon at 400 o'clock at the

the Rev. Roberts, only the imme-
diate relatives being present. After
the ceremony, the bridal party pro-
ceeded to the home of her cousin,
Mrs. O. L. Rossman where we'd
ding dinner was served. Late in the
evening Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas re-
turned to Extra and will make their
future home in the Will Bintner res
idence recently vacated by John
Parrott and family.
The bride is the daughter Of
Mrs. NJ. G. Montgomery of Kirk
man and is we'll known in this COM
munity, having been graduate Of
the Mrs. Connrardy Dressmaking

several months has been one of the
accommodating and efficient clerks

gagged in the Pantatorium business

as mail carrier left vacant by the
resignation of A. Seibert. He is a
model young man and possesses the
qualities which mark for him a
very prosperous future.
We certainly hope that their
future may be filled to the brim.

OUR NEW POST
OFFICE BUILDING

The opening ceremony that
should have been a town event,
worthy Of the City Beautiful, was
postponed inadvertently but the
opening Of our new postoffice oc-
CURED Monday morning, July Is,
1918, and received it's first mail at
6 a. m. Of that day.
The structure is of cement hol-
low brick, put up by that thorough
workman, Joe Gearheart, who also
did the plastering. Grant Jones, a
past master genius in wood work
did the wood construction act and
it will, while it lasts, be a monu-
ment to his handiwork. Houston &
Kreamer did the painting and their
artistic designs and harmony in col
ors will prove their ability as modern
artists.
Extra, the City Beautiful, had
outgrown the little nameless struc-
ture that we called the postofice,
and which we have been patroniz-
ing for quarter Of century OF
more. With the advent of Bill
May as postmaster his pride caused
him to get out Of the old rut and
arrange new quarters in which to
transact Uncle Sans business.
The new quarters are roomy
with a plenty Of light, and are the
pride Of the place, a comfort to the
workers and an everlasting memo
ry of one who had the best interest
of the town at heart.

THE QUEEN OF
THE N|SHNABOTNA

During a residence in Audubon
County of forty-two years, where
ten years of that time was spent in
active farm work, we never saw
such fine prospect for crop as at
present. Corn is laid by in perfect
condition and is at least two weeks
ahead oft size and quality at this
time of season, many fields being
tasseled out at this writing. The
excessive heat at times and fine
showers occasionally did it. The
small grain is being harvested and
is Of a splendid quality.
Cool spells, especially favorable
nights, has been remarkable wea-
ther for filling the grain heads. Not
having scorching hot and foggy
weather which predominate gener-
ally about harvest time, warded off
the deadly rust that is the menace
to the small grain industry. Alto
gether with no natural hazard, Au-
dubon County, the Queen Of the
great Nishnabotna Valley will have
a bumper crop to help supply ou1
nations fighters over there.
