MARK FOWLS
AGAINST THEFT
Protection Comes as Chick
ems May Now Be Identi-
fled, Dead or Alive
By C. D. WHITE
Henderson County Agent

For many years petty thlevery
has bothered poultrymen in our
county. Some sections are both
cred more than others, but none
arc immune. In fact it has reached
the point in some sections where
the farmers do not keep any
chickens at all. In the past it has
been practically impossible to get
a conviction, even when parties
were caught with stolen chickens.
This failure to get parties convict
cd was due TO the fact that chick
ems Of any breed look alike, and
no one could positively identify
their fowls.
Last week poultrymen in this
county adopted a plan that will
make positive Identification pos
sible. Tattooing outfits were pur-
chased, and all birds will be tat
tooed. Each farmer has his in
dividual mark, with no dupEca-
tions in the state. Birds can be
dead or alive. This posi-
tive Identification is recognized
by our courts, and will make con-
viction possible. Chicken thieves
in Henderson county will have a
hard time proving their innocence
when caught with birds that have
been tattoocd.

SPORTS PROGRAM
OF SCHOOL { N D S
ACTIVE YEAR OF SPORTS In
LOCAL SCHOOL
SYSTEM

One of the greatest lntramural
sports programs in the State of
Montana has come TO a close at the
local high school. A report by the
former high school inspector Wood
ard was. the program OF the local
school has been lotted as the best
of its kind throughout the state.
This program has helped place
many students in many worthwhile
activities where otherwise they
would be tramping the streets hav-
Ing nothing TO do in their leisure.
Certain ~objectives were stressed in
this program that could not have
been obtained otherwise. One OBJ
j%ective was to build a strong heal
thy body; another was the building
OF character; third was to create
good craftsmanship; and fourth to
teach the boys and girls a sport in
which they could participate in their
leisure. The good that this program
has done can really never be mea-
sured in a material way.
Not only has this program offered
a variety OF sports in which the stud
ents may participate but it has act
ually promoted the building OF
grounds and equipment for many
sports. Things were built for this
sports program by N. Y. A. students
were: hockey goals, a hockey court.
a tobbigan slide, skill jumps, four
softball diamonds. the repairing of
the golf course green's. and last a
construction of an elaborate mira
mural sports equipment storeroom.
The program itself was highly or
