RAISE CHICKENS
SLAUGHTER
YOUR MEAT Bill

Every city man should have at least
a dozen chickens in his back yard.
Every farmer should raise between
100 and 200 birds.
These are the opinions of M. E. ST.
bolt who is in Wisconsin organizing
a poultry drive. Mr. Sibolt points out
that this is the easiest and cheapest
way to meet the shortage in meat. Ev-
en- in the city a number of chickens
can be raised on the refuse from the
table, and in the country the price of
eggs and meat should make poultry
raising a profitable industry.

RESOLUTIONS OF THE GAtETY
CLUB.

In the midst of life we are in death.
Just as a gardener takes up his
flowers in the fall that he may trans
plant them again in the spring, so has
the Grim Reaper taken Mr., Marvel
from us that he might shine with
greater brightness. He was one Of
the founders of the club, very con
soientious member and always ready
and willing to do his duty whenever
called upon. We have lost a very
valuable member whose place will be
very hard to fill.
Whereas, 1t has pleased Almighty
God to remove from our midst Mr..
Samuel d. Marvel, we, the members
Of the Gaiety Club, bow our heads
in humble submission to Him who
dneth all things well and extend to
the bereaved family our heartfelt
sympathy. 1t is our loss but heavens
gain. The Lord giveth and the Lord
taketh, blessed be the name of the
Lord
