ou1trv raisers of mixed varieties, K

poultry raisers of mixed varieties, to
join with him in forming poultry
club that will eventually become the
banner thoroughbred poultry asso-
citation of the State of Louisiana
Each exhibitor at our recent poultry
show will be sent this urgent ap-
peal, together with an application
to join the new poultry club, and
feel that every one who has the well
fare of this parish at heart, and who
desires to see it become the banner
poultry parish of the state, will at
once fill out the application and send
i1 in to Mr.. Treen.
Our recent poultry show at the
Fair was the best this parish has
ever held, and is a great credit to
our exhibitors and to the whole par
ish and the state as we'll. Three Of
our exhibitors, the Liberty Poultry
Farm, the Ozone Poultry Yards and
Mr., W. Fl. Yennie sent some Of thei.
birds from the Parish Fair to the
State Fair at Shreveport and Won
frsts and seconds on every entry,
showing the entire South that Gov
ington is on the poultry map for
keeps. This gives us fine start
and standing in the thoroughbred
arena, and is a great incentive for a
larger endeavor.
Now, in sending out this appeal it
will be sent to those who breed
thoroughbred poultry and to those
chicken raisers who do not. All can
L voi ga
any poultry at all, and they will be
cordially asked to do so just to give
the club as large a boost as possible.
Those who now raise the mixed Va
! 1ieties, of course, cannot exhibit
them at our next fair, but we desire
to persuade them to enter the arena
and breed the thoroughbred kinl,
not only for their own benefit but fnl
the benefit Of the club and the state
The government, through its poultry
extension husbandmen throughout
the entire United States, is endeav-
oring to induce the farmer to breed
thoroughbred chickens, because they
are better for both eggs and food.
All over this vast country of ours are
thousands of men who are breeding
the thoroughbreds, and have trap
nestled the hens until they have pro-
Guced strains averaging $50 eggs to
each hen for the twelve months OF
their existence after maturity. The
farmer, in this parish, or any other
parish in the state, raising mongrei
chickens of all colors and varieties
wont average 100 eggs to a hen each
year, and this is government sta
tistics. The excuse Of those who
raise this kind of bird is, all that
they care about is enough eggs for
their table and a few chickens to
eat and a few to sell, not stopping
tc figure that such poultry is raised
at a loss, even though feed should
be at pre-War prices. Another ex-
cuse is, that they do not want the
trouble of penning the thorough
hreds to produce them, which is q
poor excuse, as it costs but little to
make a pen large enough to accom-
modate ten hens and male the
year around, and produce eggs
enough for all Matching purposes and
some left over to sell at 81 to IS per
setting. And right here let me say
this: no thoroughbred poultry breed
er was ever yet able to supply the
demand for his stock which is prop
erly advertised In poultry journal,

the amount II sales the advertise

on a basis of forty, you can feed

those hens laying one egg a day each

for the month, and selling ON tna

four cents each will total $6.oO-one

the French Croix de Guerre with a
palm, which was pinned upon Sergt,

testify to the appreciation shown by

York displayed. and particularly Of his
unmatched feat in one action against

ARBUCKLE RULES ON
EXTRA SESSION PAY

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Aug. 10. tSpL)-
Attorney General Arbuclle today held
that there was no law which would pro-
hibit advocates of road districts from
furnishing the per diem for legislators
called in a second extraordinary session.
He said, however, the money could not
be handled through the state treasury.
He also held that the legislature, in
special session, could pass an act with
drawing the pending suffrage amend
ment to the state constitution. II has
been pointed out that the proposed
amendment will be unnecessary in view
of the virtual certainty of national suf-
frage. 1t Is being advocated that the
amendment be withdrawn and a pro-
posed amendment to permit cities to
issue bonds be substituted.
