POULTRY SHOW AT DELTA
JANUARY 26, 27 AND %

few years ago there were poultry
shows held at both Delta and Mont
rose. These were discontinued for
one reason or another and there are q
lot of poultry breeders who think
these shows, or one of them at least,
ought to be revived.
Everyone recognizes the difficulty
of making creditable display OF poul-
try at the fairs in September, as
poultry is not in condition to be shown
at that time, so winter show is need
ed for this part of the Western Slope.
The show at Delta will be just as
successful as those in whose interest
it is being put on will make it. Watch
for the premium list and further an
nouncements, and begin now to get
your exhibits ready. In connection
with the show there will be meetings
for the discussion of poultry topics Of
general interest.
A permanent organization win be
formed at the Delta meeting and on
GERS for the next year elected The
tentative plan is to hold the show
alternately at Delta and Montrose.
This will also be decided at the Delta
meeting.

FAVORED ARE WE IN
SUNNY DELTA COUNTY

This has been a wonderful winter.
In an interview with Mrs. E NJ. Gets,
official Weather observer. we CLEAN the
following information.
The Thermometer has never reached
zero this winter, the coldest night reg
istering degrees above.
The warmest day in December was
the 21st. at 63 degrees.
The coolest day in December was 36
degrees above zero.
Nights average 40 to 43 degrees.
Days average so to so degrees.
SiXty-five hundredths of an inch is
the precipitation during the month.
There has not been a single day
when old Sol failed to show his face.
Mrs. Gets received letter and an
official weather bulletin from her Sis
ter at Tacoma. Washington, which is
in striking contrast to the above. This.
shows that during 30 days. the month
of November, there were 26 days in
which the sun did not shine. and that
they had 90 hours and 81 minutes Of
sunshine. as parts of the remaining
four days were partly cloudy.

a cold, but it rapidly developed into a
more serious condition and the life
that God had given the parents for SO
short time was as suddenly reclaim
ed. No pains were spared to save his
life, but the Master had chosen one
of his little ones and it could not be
otherwise.

tiny form was laid to rest in Garnet
Mesa cemetery. Surviving members
of the family are the parents, three

STOCK SHOW ENTITIES
LARGER AND BETTER

Entries for the National Western
Stock Show are practically all in.
Despite early fear in some quarters
that general condition Of the industry
might hold down entries in the Stock
Show. the reverse seems to be the
case. The 1929 National Western
Stock Show, to be held January IA to
81, promises to be bigger and better
than ever. In many of the depart
ments, notably the dairy section and
in carloads of fat hogs. the entries
are considerably larger than one year
ago. In most sections entries are
fully as large as they were last year,
and the show management announces
that all divisions will be well filed.
In the feeder cattle division the
entries are larger than a year ago,
totaling close to 125 carloads. In
quality this division of the show is
expected to eclipse any former ex-
hibition, due to the abundance OF feed
available everywhere for carrying the
stock through to show time. General
improvement in the quality of the
stock on the western ranges will also
be in evidence.
Carload fat cattle entries are larger
also than one year ago, while entries
of carloads Of sheep are Of about the
same volume as in 1921.
The work of tabulating the entries
for the big catalog is rapidly pro
crossing In the Office OF the secretary.
1--WE are highly pleased with the
prospect for big show" said General
Manager Harry l. Youngman. THE
entries are large in all departments
and all classes will be well filed.
Many of the classes are larger than
they have been for years. and all are
bringing forth splendid competition.
Not in years have we been able TO
offer to the show visitors such an
evening horse show as we will give
them this year. With the railroad
rates from all over the west reduced
for the first time in four years. we
look for a very large attendance at
the coming show. and i have no hesi'
tation in saying it will be well worth
"a visit from all those who can pos
sIbly attend"
