Five hundred White Wyandotte chick
ems in a flock is a pretty sight, and 500
of these chickens are proving profitable
to Mrs. Henry LEM. Mr.. and Mrs.
LEM live in section /, Morgan town
ship, on the 220 acre farm better known
as the Henry >Bielenberg farm, and
they have lived on this place for two
years, and are contented and happy
young family. Mrs. LEM is daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Reinking, who
occupy the fine home just south of
Schleswig. She takes much interest in
her flock Of chickens and spends con-
siderable time with the chicks. Mr..
LEM keeps Poland China hogs and re-
Gently sold 60 head that averaged 1926
pounds. He has now in the yards and
pasture SUU spring SnQatS, ana IOr the
most part they are doing well. Mr..
LEM says the swine plague is taking
some of his shoats. but he hopes to free
the herd from the plague soon. In
about three weeks he will have a load
of fine Hereford cattle for the market,
and Of course Is living in hopes of strik-
ing good market when he ships. Hen
ry is one of the substantial farmers
and stock raisers Of Morgan, and he is
with success.

According to the Carroll Times, its.
back to the farm for Joe Kelly. Joe
has been jim the shoe business in Car
roll for many years, in fact ever since
he left Denison. And he has made a.
great success Of the mercantile game,
but he longs for the farm life and the
Times says he has purchased a TIN
acre farm just west of Carroll and ex-
poets to move thereon. He paid 1915
per acre for the farm, and we judge it
must be a good one. We understand
the shoe business will be continued, but
Joe will stay away from the store more
Or less during the year.
