EVERY GROWER ASKED
WILLING TO EXHIBIT
Matter Will Be Decided at Com.
mercial Club Meeting Next Mon
day Night-Favorable Action Will
Result in Premium List.

In consOnance with the Sug-
gestion at the last meeting of the
commercial club that poultry
show be held in connection with
the Annual Dairy Day celebration
of the Holly Cow Club in Holly on
Thursday, April Sth, the committee
appointed to ascertain the senti-
ment of the poultry raisers in the
vicinity, has met with enthusiastic
encouragement In fact not
single poultry man or poultry
woman either has opposed the
plan.
Nearly every person spoken to by
the members of the committee has
been enthusiastic for show and
while many of them are not en-
gagged in the propagation of birds
for the show room, yet they are
willing to participate in the show
and let the public see what is be-
ing done in this section in the
poultry game, without an organi
cation or concerted effort in this
great industry. The indications
are that a good show can be held
in connection with the Dairy Day
program without in any way con
tiicting with the dairy show,
and in fact it appears that the
poultry annex to Dairy Day may
be made a permanent feature and
even add strength to the other. 1t
is also hoped that live local
poultry association may be- form
ed here during the Forthcoming
Dairy Day show.
The committee appointed to look
up the poultry fans of the Holly
district, in order to expedite ar
rangements for the coming show,
has asked that all poultry raisers
who are willing to exhibit at the
show this year will please notify
The Chieftain office. Kindly call
up 81, giving your name, postoffice
address, whether you get your
mail in town, on a route or at
some of the other towns, how
many birds you will exhibit and
what breeds. This will be simple
and easy and will materially aid
in the promotion of the show.
Remember the show is open to
all in this section of the state this
year. Already more than two doz-
en- poultry raisers have indicated a
willingness to exhibit and this will
start good local show. 1t is
hoped that a favorable decision
may be reached at next Monday
nights commercial club meeting,
and if so arrangements will be
made to finance the show and Of
fer good line of either cash or
merchandise premiums, or both.
IT you are poultry raiser, no
matter how many or how few you
raise, or what kind, get in the
game. Holly and vicinity can be
made the greatest poultry produc-
ing center in the Arkansas Valley
if we will only go about it and
show on Dairy Day will be good
start.
Call up The Holly Chieftain,
Phone 81, and tell us you will get
in the game for Dairy Day and
that you will GO!

Were Victorious in Fourth
League Game.
FINAL SCORE 10 TO 16
AND LEADER OF SERIES
Locals Put Up Clever Defensive
and Forced Melon Pickers to
Shoot from Center-La Junta
Boys Will Play Here Saturday.

Playing true to form the Holly
High school basket ball team won
the fourth league game by defeat.
ing the fast Rocky Ford team at
Rocky Ford last Saturday night.
The final score was 10 to 16 This
game was looked upon by follow
ers of both teams as one of the
most important of the series of
league games played. Rocky Ford
has her team of last year which
won the league championship, re.
infOrced by player of the team of
two years ago. Holly High school
finished in second place last year
and now has, by splendid, consist
ent playing, won an advantage over
her rival.
But returning to the game of
Saturay night, it was hard fought
throughout. Early in the game
the Holly lads resOrted to defen.
sive tactics and forced the melon
pickers to attempt shots from the
middle of the floor, and at the same
time keeping within distance by
flashes OF fine offensive play which
enabled them to end the half to
7.
The second half opened fast;
Rocky Ford scored twice, once from
the field and once from the foul
line. Then they were stopped and
Holly took the lead and continued
to hold it until the whistle called
off hOstilities Every player con.
trs nd - hi n
victory.
The Holly girls were defeated in
their first league game by a score
of 36 to II. The girls had not re-
covered from the effects of the
Syracuse game and were weakened
due to the absence of some of their
best players, from the lineup.
A great treat is offered Holly fans
next Saturday night when La
.1unta comes for two games. The
La Junta boys are now tied with
Holly for first place and victory
for the locals means undisputed
league leadership and an advant-
age which will be hard to over
come. The local team lost a close

HANDLES TYPtST.

Though both of her hands are
missing, a young woman of st. Louis
operates a typewriter with consider
able speed and dexterity. The con-
trivance used for manipulating a
typewriter is a round stick of wood,
slightly over seven inches long, to
which is: attached brass ring near

WORM IN TIL. BURR.

Worms have gone up. They cost
more by the quart this fall.
The unpleasant tenant of the
chestnut is the offspring of beetle
with an enormously long snout.
The mother beetle crawls over the
ripening burr, and, by the help of
her snout, thrusts her eggs down
into it. When they hatch, tiny white
grubs emerge and, boring into the
nuts, proceed to fatten and grow.
Emerging from the chestnuts after
the latter have fallen to the ground,
they burrow into the earth, where
they spend the winter, making their
appearance in the following year as
beetles.

IVORY HUNTERS AVOID CEYLON
Neither Elephants Nor BuffaIoes Have
Tusks Which Are Of Any Value
in Commercial World

An elephant without tusks seems
almost impossible, yet in Ceylon the
male elephants have no tusks at all !;
they have miserable little grubbers
projecting two or three inches from
the upper jaw and inclining down
wards.
Nothing produces either ivory or
horn in fine specimens throughout
'Ceylon. Although some of the buff
faloes have tolerably fine heads, they
will not bear a comparison@w with
those Of other countries. The horns
of the native cattle are not above
four inches in length.
The elk's and the spotted deer's
antlers are small compared with deer
of their size in India. This is the
more singular, as it is evident from
the geological formation that at some
remote period Ceylon was not an
island, but formed a portion of the
mainland 1t is thought that there
must be elements wanting in the
Ceylon pasturage for the formation
of ivory.
