only in shows with a cast of the

Large crowds have been in at­

ing to the advance agent who was

tendance indicates that the public is
hungry for a ■minstrel show of the

highly of Arthur Heckwald’s Geor­

be greeted by a big audience on their
visit here Friday night.

POULTRY SPECIALIST TO
BE H EBE SEPTEMBER 12
Dr. E. L. Grubb, a member of the
Research and Clinic department of
the George H. Lee company, Omaha,
Nebraska, will hold one of those In­
teresting and helpful poultry clin­
ics at the American legion club
room at 2 P. M. September 12.
The object of the clinic is to as­
sist fanmers and poultry raisers in
reducing the tremendous loss among
poultry, that, occur on the farm
every year. The clinics conducted
by Lee specialists have frequently
been called short course schools,
teaching how to recognize, correctly
diagnose, treat and prevent disease
ind other troubles that arc the com­
mon cause of much loss to poultry
raisers.
Farmers who have
unthrifty
chickens or turkeys are invited to
bring In specimens for post-mortem
examinations, and receive free in­
structions on the cause, treatment
and prevention of the trouble.
Plenty of specimens are needed to
bring out the full value of this de­
monstration, and the value of the
clinic to poultry raisers will be In­
creased in proportion to the number
of specimens available for exL^ilna-
tlon.
There will be no admission charge
and nothing offered for sale at the
clinic. Every farmer in this com­
munity should take advantage of
this opportunity to become better
posted on disease pevention.

OLD-TIME MENU OF U. P.
DINER IS INTERESTING
Eighteon-day dietlsts please copy.
A menu of the Union Pacific in
1866 has coine to light which gives
a glimpse of the tables set for 100
prominent easterners who came “way
out west" that year to inspect the
Union Pacific lines.
All these poor people had was a
12 course dinner beginning wlh soup
and fish. After that came seven kinds
of boiled meat and seven varieties ot
roast meat. Then, so no one would
go away hungry, there were ten
varieties of cold meats, twenty-nine
entrees, eight kinds of game, Includ­
ing antelope and bear with port wine
sauce, eleven vegetables, seven relish­
es, nineteen pastries, fifteen desserts
and three Bpeclal drinks, not count­
ing the comprehensive wine list.
Bear In mind that this was sixty-
three years ago, and while making
your luncheon on two olives and a
slice of imelha toast, read on.
They had venison and cranberry
sauce. Mallard and teal ducks with
mallga wine sauce; grouse, quail on
toast, wild turkey and rabbit pot
pie.
The entire list was composed of
120 different items—all for 100
gueets.
Official of the Union Pacific met
the visitors at St. Joseph, Missouri.
October 20, 1866, and were their
hosts at the dinner served on board
the steamer Colorado which brought
the party to Omaha. A detailed ac­
count of the trip Is set forth In
Western Incidents Connected with
the Union Pacific Railroad" by Silas
Seymour. A copy of this rare old
volume has just recently came Into
possession ot the Union Pacific’s his­
torical museum.
