Commercial Club Election
Next Monday evening there will be

cial club work, state that they have
lost all interest in the organization
through the fact that it was too muib
of a one man affair. AH persons feel

opportunity now to vote into office
men who will be for the town wholly
and not for themselves, or their poli
tical advancement. Get busy and' at

changes you think necessary and th< t
forever after hold peace until the
next election.

CARE OF POULTRY IN WINTER
Not Much - Hard Work Required to
Keep Flock in Summer, but Differ
ent In Cold Weather.
(By B. A. WELCH.)
It does not require much hard work
to keep a flock in good condition in
the summer, but absolute neglect will
often completely destroy the winter
egg producing qualities of not only
the old hens but the pullets as well.
If you have not removed every win
dow In the chicken house and substi
tuted wire netting in order to provide
perfect ventilation do so at once.
Better that the chicks roost in the
trees than they be confined in a ver
min ridden building.
Body lice will worry a flock to
death, or so nearly so as to destroy its
usefulness. These can be killed but
not easily.
Persian Insect powder will do the
business. It should be applied with a'
powder spray by one person while an
other holds the fowls by the legs
that the powder may reach every part
of the skin through the disturbed
feathers.
HANDY HOPPER FOR CHICKENS
May Be Constructed of Wood or Gal
vanized Iron and Will Prevent
Birds Scattering Grain.
An economical and useful device in
the poultry yard is shown in the illus
tration.
This hopper may bo made of gal
vanized iron or of wood. It is intend
ed to prevent hens from wasting feed
when eating, says Orange Judd Farm
Hoppsr for 8avlng Food.
er. The hopper proper is hung above
the lower box, which may be emptied
back into the hopper when desired.
Plan of Feeding.
By giving the hens just &s much
food aa they will relish in the morn
ing and scattering some small grain
In the litter, they will start scratching
and will keep It up until their crops
are filled.
At night they can be given all they
can eat of acceptable foods, varying
as frequently as circumstances allow.
With the variety of food obtainable
in the summer time, even for confined
fowls, there is little excuse for having
overfed birds.
Get Chicks to Roost.
To induce the young chicks to roost
in the poultry house as soon as they
are weaned, build a ladder of a wide
board with narrow cleats nailed
across at short intervals. Where the
roosts are easy to reach the young
birds are more ready to use them.

A Stubborn Cinderella
Last Tuesday evening the Audi
torium at Pocatello was crowded
with an appreciative audience, which
w'tnessed the production of a Stub
born Cinderella. Neal Burns in
"Skeeter," Bobbie Wagoner as "Fat"
and many others made hits with the
people. A large number of Black
foot people witnessed the play. If
the management of the play house
here could' secure similar attractions
instead of* the class that have been
produced this summer it might help
to make that place attractive.

Oak Cafe Changes Hands.
Last week a dead was closed where
by N. E. Montgomery traded to C. F.
Humphrey 160 acres of improved farn
land In Oklahoma for the Oak Cafe,

Mr. Montgomery immediately and Mr.
Montgomery took charge Sunday
morning. Mr. Humphrey and family
left this week for the old Indian
country, to take possession of their
newly acquired property. They open
ed the Oak Cafe about one year ago

patronage. During their stay in this
city they have made many friends
