of Missouri, July 5, 18-10, during the
so called border rufTiun days. That
was when the then territory of Kan
sas was deliberating between a-slave
or free state constitution and shortly
prior to the invasion of Kansas by
John Brown. His parents were
Gottfreid and Francos Hattenbach,
who wero of German birth and who
married in Baltimore in the early
40s uul took up their abode in west-

Missouri, rrom there they
they went to Cincinnati, O., but re
turned west in 1854 and settled at
Council Bluffs,. la. In 1855, the Hat
tenbachs located in Omadi, which was
giving promise of becoming an im
portant point. The following year
they settled in Covington, where the
elder Hattenbach was interested in
the town site. They moved to Sioux
City in 1859 and engaged in business
in 18G1. An Indian invasion from the
west and north caused considerable
alarm and the parents again returned
with the family to Cincinnati, where
they remained until 1869, when they
returned to Sioux City. Ludwig
Hattenbach and Nathan, his brother,
formed a partnership under the firm
name of N. Hattenbach & Co., which
terminated in the spring of 1878,
when the firm of Hattenbach & Ma
gee was formed with D. A. Magee as
the other partner. This firm contin
ued in business until 1911, when Mr.
Magee withdrew from the business,
but the store was continued by Mr.
Hattenbach up to the time of his
death. Mr. Hattenbach is survived
by his widow, Mrs. Emma Hatten
bach; two brothers, David Hatten
bach, of Sioux City, and Aaron Hat
tenbach, of Long. Beach, Cal., and
one sister, Mrs. D. A. Magee, 309
Thirteenth street. Three brothers,
Nathan, Joseph and Mitchell, are de

ber of several fraternal orders. The
Knights of Pythias, of which he was
a member, will have a prominent
part in the funeral. The funeral
will be held tomorrow afternoon at
2 o'clock from the residence. Burial

Tho petition which was submitted
to this board at this time reads as

"To tho Honorable Board of Commis

ka. We the undersigned, hereby peti
tion your honorable body that you
designate the New State road, to bo
known as tho Antelope Trail, along
tho route of tho present cieek road,
entering Dakota county from tho
north line of section nine, township
twenty-eight, range six, Dixon coun
ty, Nebraska, two miles south of Wa
terbury, Nebraska, and thenco east.
Wo belieVo that tho road bo desig
nated will be, to tho best interests of
tho residents of Dakota and Dixon
counties alike, and to tho great ma
jority of users of the road, for tho
following reasons:
First, the road would bo practi
cally in the center of Dakota coun
ty, and so accommodate the greatest
possible number of residents of the
county.
Second, we believe that tho desig
nation of this road should bo mado
with the interests of tho greater
number of users in mind, and it can
bo demonstrated that the road for
which wo are asking will accommo
date tho greatest possible number of
people, in Dixon county and those
driving through from the west. It
will bo admitted that tho road as
above described will lie the shorter
by three miles, and avoid several
miles of steep hills on tho other

A number of poultry flocks aro
being troubled with roup. This is
moro often caused by overcrowding
than by not having warm enough ,
quarters. Each bird should bo al
lowed not less than four square feet
of floor space.
If you find that somo of tho flock
has roup or colds, scparato theso
from your flock and provide some
provision for amplo ventilation.
I'owis need a continual supply or.
fresh air, but must bo protected from
direct wind or draught, y Proper
ventilation is tho first essential to
tho ncalth o" Mills.
Birds confined in pens from day tq
day should bo led graiiu which aro
scattered in a deep straw litter. A
viy good scratch mixture is, two
parts cracked corn (by weight); ono
part of good heavy oats and nno port
larley. '
It should also bo kept in mind that
a dry miah mixture should b kept
before tho birds at all times in a
box or hopper. A dry mash hopper
should constitute part of tho cquip
mont of ovory poultry house. This
is an ausoluto in&uranco against un
derfeeding. A very satisfactory mixture of
feods to bo usea as u diy mash Is aa

2 parts wheat Bhorts (by v eight.)
