in their appropriation of 1880. M-.
Maloney said that all of the money
promised except the s275 had been re-
ceived by the companies and that the
purpose of the firemen's appearance
was to find out when they would re-
ceive the balance.
There appeared to be some question
over this matter, Mr.. Forwood OF the
finance committee explaining that the
various companies would be allowed the
Friendship appropriation between thera.
and that If they could. they would nli

be an increase of $1,000. Mr.. Cannon,

improvement purposes. A motion was
made that Council take steps before

Set Several Hens
To Reduce Labor

Kentucky farmers who use hens to
hatch eggs can save themselves con-
siderable time and money if they
set number of hens at the same
time, say poultry specialists from
the State College of Agriculture.
Such system not only reduces the
labor at feeding time to a minimum,
but also makes it possible to reduce
the number of hens necessary to
care for the chicks after they are
Matched. According to the specialists
the chicks can be given to the small
est number of hens possible and
then those that are not needed re-
turned to the laying house.
According to the poultrymen the
hens should be let off the nests once
a day for feed and water. Their
feed should consist Of whole grain,
as no soft feed should be given to
them throughout the period of incu-
baton.

World Series Returns
Shown on
Electric Score Board

For the first time in the history of Rawlins the world
series games are being played out on an electric score board
for the benefit of the fans of this city.
The Republican has secured the leased wire service of
the United Press. This wire carries the game play by play
directly from the playing field, being the very same service
that the largest papers throughout the country are receiv-
ing.
Ar electric score board has been constructed and at the
games yesterday and today this score board was used to
great advantage. Many fans are enjoying this treat.
This service is being received at the Elks' Home, where
an admission charge of SO cents is being made in the hopes
that at least a portion of the expense of securing the service
can be met.
Everyone is invited to see the remaining games of the
world series played in full at the Elks Hall.
