Butler County Farmer Shows Big Profit In One Year--Re-
 uuireS Little Extra Work

Greenville, January 9,-(Specia1.)- Fred Gafford, a progressive farmer of Butler county, has demonstrated the fact that farmers with but little extra effort can develop poultry yard that will yield attravtive profits.
 He started with 50 purebred single comb Rhode Island red hens January 1, 1920. On January 1, 1921, he had accomplished the following results: Sold 6,3s2 eggs for $25O.47; 64 young hens, s1o0.22; 162 flyers, s121.25; total sales, s471.54; total expense, s231.36. The net profit was $240.5S.
 All eggs and chickens were sold at regular market prices, and no prem ium was charged for the purebred feature. The tabulation, it is ex> plained, does not include 20 bushels of were raised on the same land on which Nor does the above statement include the eggs and chickens that the family ate during the year. On January 1, 1921, his flock had increased to 112 hens, and this total also is excluded from the total profit.
 This splendid result was accom- plished without neglecting the usual farm work, and the additional effort was comparatively insignificant. Mir Gafford carefully studied farm papers and bulletins. and sought to give his poultry yard a fair test by construct ing hen houses and GOODS along proven lines. He is very properly pleased with results.

 Although Senator w. H.

warrants were rejected Thursday
night and it is understood that the
position Of the court will be the same
towards all similar applications until
doubt as to the procedure is removed.
Miles City Case Appealed.
The principal objection to search
warrants used in the Baatz and Lakman
cases concerns the question Of whether
the constitution permits search of
private premises without the court
being first informed as to the facts
alleged against the defendant. All
liquor search warrants used since the
state prohibition law became operative
were issued on information and be-
lief that violation had occurred and
without the court being familiar with
the evidence. Abandonment of this
procedure would require the sheriff to
file complaint and bring witnesses
into open court before a warrant can
be obtained. in the opinion of officials.
A Miles City case involving the same
points raised in the Baatz and Lak,nan
cases has been appealed to the state
supreme court and final outcome Of
the Great Falls actions may be delayed
until decision is handed down. At
torneys stated Friday that the Wyo-
ming supreme court recently rendered
a decision tending to show that the
questions Of constitutionality raised in
the Great Falls cases are sufficient.
