The Plainview Ranch. jEasMZi
b The Delightful Sensation of
55
While out riding Sunday we stop
peil anil shook hands with our old
friend S. J. Koh at his Plnlimew
Ranch, four and one-half tulles south
west of Hershoy. Wo received n v rv
vj? cordial welcome from Jake and spun
an interesting hour looking ov r the
ranch. He has about eighty hind of
two-year olds mostly high grade
White Faces in the food lot and tin
are a bunch that will undoubtodlv top
the market next March. In addition
lo these Mr. Koch has somewhat men
100 cows, the same number of )enr-(
lings and runs about ilfty head oi
horses. Both ills cattle and horse -'
are well bred, his beautiful gray st.il ,
lion and his White Face herd bull- ,
being among the best in the counn
In fact Mr. Koch is thoroughly im
pressed with the belief that the thor
oughbred animal is the only one and ,
he applies this to not only bis eattl
horses and hogs, but to

Fuels in Regard to the wl)
Formed Poult i' Association
North Platte Produce Co. ships 1.1
$2000 poultry every month, which tan
bo produced In Lincoln county if the
breeders of poultry will Join hands and
work together, which can bo done onl
by an association or club, whose pur
pose is to help the breeders individ
ually. Every poultryinan should take
a deeper Interest in the largo uunibi r
of local shows to bo hold this year
Local shows are the life of the poul
try industry. They are an incentne to
u great many brooders, and fane n rs
they are a source of education to earh
and every exhibitor, they lire a stmui
lant to trade of stock and egg. th
create a living example to thousands
of people throughout the count r
A steady advancement and imprm
ment is being made in tow is
by the scientific poult r.m u
of the twentieth century. In oilu r
words, poultry raising is gimn i
the world n fowl with more meat hi
on it, a fowl which reaches nun f
able conditions in half the time t,
essary years ago, a fowl wine h l.is
from 200 to 300 egss a year. In t.it
In our state of Nebraska the poult r
industry, as a result of modern se n n
title breeding, housing and care m
raising, is annually greater than tin
output of all the gold mines in eiiln r
Colorado or Alaska; so what does Ne
braska want of gold mines. The point
however, is that our great source of
showing the public the improvem in
of tho fowls is through our local poul
try cxhibts.
It therefore behooves the manag
ment of these exhibits to make tie i .
as nent, clean and attractive us pus
slblo, and to use every possibh .el
vantage to get local publicity. It .iK.
behooves all breeders of the counu
both largo and small to take a 1 i r
interost In our coming count show
on January 0, 7 and S, 1915, and to .is
slsl by making an exhibit, even thoimh
tho exhibit may be worth more to il
nssocintlon than to you personally
