ccremony, but he has to have a
special diploma to kill the chick
ens. As chicken killer he is call
ed the Shoard. He has a right
piven to him in Russia to kilì
chickens ali over the worid. He

If the value of the forest pro
duets used on ali the farms in the
state for 1919 is estimated at $3,
:;0(),000, the total for lumber and
pulp wood sold and used on the
farm is over $30,000,000.
According to the state forester's
figures, the value of ali the dairy
produets produced in the state dur
ing that year was $2,7207,813. On
this basis, the lumber industry ex
ceeds the sale of dairy produets
in importance, and lumber becomes
a more important item than dairy
produets, potatoes and orchard
fruits put together.
