Monday afternoon and seized a still in
full operation. together with one gall
Ion OF white mule" and a half barrel
OF raisin mash.
The Martis farm is located about
three miles east OF this city. When

formed by his wife that he had left

BOYS AND GIRLS BUYING STOCK
interest Shown In Livestock Clubs I'm
County Is High

Many OF the boys and girls OF Iron
county will have some fine stock IN
call their own this coming summer.
An especial effort is being made this
year to stimulate interest in livestock
clubs among the young folks.
One OF the greatest causes of young
folks leaving the farm is because they
have not had enough responsibility
put upon them with its proportionate
reward. They have not been partners
in the farm enterprises. owing any OF
the livestock kept for the crops raised.
II is TO Offset this trouble that the
livestock clubs are being pushed thru
out the country. Here in Iron county
We have been getting the BOYS and
girls into garden clubs for several
years Last year work was done A.

ing care of pigs, calves and chickens.
This year the number has greatly In
creased
The Iron Grange Livestock Club will
purchase over 300 pure bred barred
Plymouth Rock chicks and a few pigs.
They are borrowing the money to do
this and will pay back their loans
this fall from the sale of stock and
then have nice lot Of pure bred chic
kens to pay them for their labor and
enterprise. In the Mansfield district
the boys and girls will have sheep ana
calves principally although a few
will have chickens. At Amasa sever
al are planning on purchasing calves
IN Stambaugh Township a Guernsey
calf club is being formed. Already
several calves have been ordered
The work In this district Is under the
stimulating influence OF the new Stam-
baugh Development Bureau. IL is
thought that enough orders for calves
will be secured so that carload OF
these may be bugrbotmayybgkq bgkg
these may be brought into the coun-
~. This means very great improve
ment in the livestock OF this section.
If the boys and girls can get a
start with good stock that is really
their own We need not fear that they
will fail to take an interest in the
farm This is a project in which the
young folks should be encouraged by
the older folks. II means much TO
the communities as we'll "a to the in
dviduals. We are only beginning this
work. In other places they have been
carrying Il on for some time and with
increasing returns.
