E. E. JACKSON, .GRANT,
SEEKS EE-ELECTION
in the primary department fcera in the SStli district
"Lincoln, May 8. E. E. Jackman,
Grant banker and sponsor of several
regulatory banking measures consid
ered :by recent legislature, filed
Thursday as a candidate idr re- lec
tion on the Republican ticket ttom
Years ago, May and June chicks
were "natural." We couldn't raise
them earlier because we couldn't get
them "out-of-doors." Cod liver oil
and advanced nutritional knowledge
have bridged this gap, so they can
now be raised indoors, early and
more artificially. The late chick has
become out of fashion, out of date.
Every chick has to be "early," and
every argument possible has been
marshalled out and into line against
late chicks.
However, reason dictates this fact:
May and June hatched chicks will be
money makers in November if they
are given proper care, proper environ
ment, proper feed and proper feed
ing. Perhaps those who are preju
diced against "warm weather" chicks
will ask what is meant by a "pro
gram of proper care, environment,
proper feed, and feeding." Such gen
eral terms might well be questioned.
Proper care of late chicks means
giving them the same care that is
now given early chicks. Is thi3 ask
ing too much? Proper care consists
of a plan of reasonable sanitation as
to cleaning the houses, cleaning out
drinking fountains, supplying fresh
water regularly, dry litter, and above
all else, regular periodic attention to
a particular program of care. Pro-
grePoive feed manufacturers and agri
cultural colleges outline programs
for the care of chicks. Ado'pe one of
these plans and follow it religiously.
Nothing is ever successfully raised
without care, no matter the season.
Proper environment of late chicks
includes sufficient room with plenty
of fresh air so they will not crowd
and sweat at night, a range separate
from older chickens and clean, new
trround with shade. A field of half
grown corn will provide shade and
frequent cultivation will keep the
ground clean.
Summertime offers inexpensive and
ideal environmental factors that are
far superior to the confinement neces
sary to early brooding. All other
things being equal, range raised
chickens will be hardier than those
reared in confinement.
Proper feed means feeding through
out the summer a quality growing
mash and scratch feed, both contain
ing' a good variety of ingredients to
supply all a growing bird requires
for ideal development. Any concoc
tion of a mash ration, any mixture
of poor quality scratch grains will
not do the job.
The soundest test of a good poul
tryman is whether or not he can
raise a good batch of pullets year in
and year out consistently. All of
those who are poultrymen by this
test are very particular about their
rations, usually feeding the highest
quality commercial rations on the
market.
A May or June chick, fed a high
quality mash and scratch ration will
be full-grown, solid, well-feathered,
vigorous in health, and laying mar
ketable eggs in November. But it
can't be done without good feed. It
can't be done by feeding growing
mash half of the summer and allow
ing the pullets to coast down hill
during the other half.
Given proper care, environment
and feed, there still remains proper
feeding. A good fede can be made
ineffective by the use of poor feed
ing judgment. Two dairymen al
ternately feeding the same herd of
cows the same feed vary in the
amount of milk they produce. The
variable factor is neither the cows
nor the feed, but the actual feeding.
Likewise with poultry, feeding prac
tice is vital. A major demand is for
a regular schedule of feeding. Again,
many of the large progressive feed
concerns and agricultural colleges
outline plans of feeding, and it is a
wise act indeed to adopt and follow
one of these tested plans.
Yes, with proper care, environ
ment, feed and feeding. May and
June hatched pullets will be money
makers in November.

NEBRASKA SCENES WILL SOON
CALL THEIR SUMMER. VISITORS
Residents of Nebraska and of other
states have learned something of the
places of scenic interest to be reach
ed by fine graveled highways and
enjoyed by erason cf the comforts
provided more and more each year
for tourists travel.
The year 1930 already gives prom
ise of being a year of out-door pleas
ures for Nebraska people who will
be lured farther from their homes
by the easy travel facilities that will
be afforded this year by new high
ways and better traveling accommo
dations. Northwestern Nebraska is a de
lightful section to visit in the sum
mer, especially if one enjoys rugged
pine clad hills and the broken scen
ery such as are found in that sec
tion. That part of the state is ac
cessible by tine graveled roads and
is gaining in fame each year as more
people visit it.
The North Platte contains the
eastern extremity of Wild Cat range
of hills coming down from Wyoming
and tnding in surprising rock for
mations. One of these is Scotts Bluff
National Monument, a great rock,
towering high above the plain and
forming a rugged background for
the city that bears its name. The
bad lauds to the west cf that reck
are a touch of the wilds of nature.
The valley itself is a place of im
mense interest by reason of its great
fertility and intense cultivation for
sugar beets and small crops.
At Chadrcn State Park nature is
seen in a turbulent mood. Rugged
hills, pine clad slopes, and far
stretching vistas entrance with their
wild beauty. Near here is the enw
ly acquired state game refuge and
many places of scenic interest. II.
park itself is a place of beauty.
South of Chadrcn as one travels
a fine graveled highway leading to
Alliance a secticn of wild beauty is
encountered that is a part of the
Black Hills of South Dakota set
down on the plains of Nebraska.
One spot of historic interest is Sig
nal Rock from whose eminence the
Indians in early days wafted their
messag3s to -cutlying tribes in flame
and smoke in their primitive method
of telegraphy.
Northwestern Nebraska teems in
places of delightful scenic interest
and nature is lavish in her moods and
caprices.
MAY DAY TUESDAY
AT GARFIELD PART.
Providing theHvcather permits, the
May Festival, under the direction of
Miss Ruth Lindsay, music supervisor
of the Plattsmouth schools, will be
presented Tuesday afternoon at 2:30
in Garfield park. It will be a big and
colorful affair. The children and
teachers have been working hard and
enthusiastically for several weeks on
dances and costumes for the occasion.
The May King and Queen and their
attendants have been elected by vote
of the entire high school. Their
identity will be kept secret until the
hour of festivity.
Those in charge are anxious that
every one present will be able to see
and enjoy the performance. With
this in mind, they ask that every one
attending bring blankets or pillows
so that they may be seated on the
ground. This will insure every one
of getting a good view of the pageant.
Chairs will be provided for the older
folks, but it is urged that everyone
co-operate in the plan of blankets
and pillows and in this small way
help make the children's May Day
a gala occasion.
