ANOTHER NEW RECORD
Prowers County Hens Establishing
New High Mark Each Week.

The hens of the Lamar territory
sure made one big day of it last Sat
urday. They not only shattered the
local postoffice record by sending out
191 cases but 81 more went out by ex-
press, making 252 cases for the one
day or right close to one hundred
thousand eggs. The Fleshman Pro-
due Co. also made a new record for
a single days shipment by one firm,
having sent out 151 cases.
Another item in the matter that
should not be overlooked is that il is
going to keep our corn farmers busy
furnishing nog for all these eggs.
They will probably meet the situation
as cheerfully as the hens are. Lamar
is likely yet to gain the reputation
of being the center of the valley of
chickens and egg-nog." Better get a
good location before the big jam of
immigration.

GOVERNOR ADAMS HERE
Large Gathering of MasOns Turns Out
Last Thursday to Hear the
Ex-Governor Speak.

Ex-Governor Alva Adams, who is
the inspector general for Colorado of
33rd degree Masons, was the guest of
the Scottish Rite Masons of this ter
ritory Last Thursday evening at ban
quet at the Masonic Temple. 1t was
the largest gathering of members of
this branch of Masonry ever held in
this part of the state and was very
enjoyable occasion for all present.
After the banquet there was a spec
ial meeting in the big lodge room for
all Masons and their ladies' to hear the
Governors address and there was a
very large attendance for this meet
ing. The special mission of the Gov
eronr's address was to create interest
in promoting the passage by congress
of the Towner- Sterling educational
bill, which prevents the apportioning
of public school money to any but pub
lie schools. The Governor made an
earnest and effective plea for the pub
lie school as our greatest American
institution.
A special musical program was rem
dered which included numbers by a
ladies' quartette composed of Mrs
Marie Uhl, Miss Dill, Mrs. Hayes Will
liams and Mrs. L. B. Logan; a mems
quartette of Messrs. Denham, Ed
wards, Center and Koonsman; and So
los by Mrs. l.. G. LEST and Geo. Cor
zine.

FARMING CONDITIONS
Both Fruit and General Farming Con-
ditions Never Looked Brighter
in Spring.

In talking with an expert orchard
ist this week the Register was inform
ed that the fruit prospect in Prowers
county never looked brighter at this
time Of year before. In spite of the
mild winter the fruit trees are not
putting out as early rs in years past
The early trees like apricots and some
varieties of peaches that were in
bloom usually before this time, are
just beginning to swell the buds and
will not be in bloom until well past
the usual time for spring freeze. Only
an exceptional spell will now catch
them. The buds are the most perfect
in years also.
The general condition of the soil is
also fine and farming conditions in all
lines were never progressing more
ideally for splendid crops in the irri-
gated region. Much of the dry land
winter wheat has also been found to
be in much better condition than was
supposed. Some will have to be re-
planted by spring wheat or other crops.
but the condition of the soil is such
that this can now be done with the
minimum amount OF expense.
