WILL ROGERS WILL BE AT
HOME WITH THEM
Charles M. Russell died before his
book "Trails Plowed Under," was
published. Will Rogers wrote the in
troduction to the book in the form
of a letter to his friend who had
passed on. This eft quoted letter has
brought team to many eyes since
Will Rogers' died. It is in part as
follows:
"There aint much news here to tell
you. You know the big Bosh, gent'
sent a hand over and got you. so
quick Charley. But I guess he' need;
ed a good man prety bad. I hear ' they
been working short handed over there
pretty much all' the time, I. guess
its hard for him to get' hold of good
men, they are just getting scarce
everywhere.
"I bet you hadn't been up there
three days until you had out your old
pencil , and was a drawing something'
funn' t-soine .'of those old punch
ew.Vi -het-you Mark Twain and
old Bill Nye, and Whitcomb Riley ;
and a whole bunch of those old josh-'
ers was just a waiting for youHo pop
in with all the latest ones. What
kind of a bird is Washington and Jef
ferson? I bet they are regular fel-
,. ears when you meet 'em, aint they?
Most big men are. I would like to
the bunch that is gathered around
- : you the first time you tell the foe
about putting the limburger cheese
in the old nestors whiskers. - Dont
i tell that Charley until you get Lin
' coin around you, he would love that,
I bet you and him kinder throw in
together when you get well acquaint-
ed. Darn it, when I get to thinking
about all them top hands up there,
if I could just hold a horse wrang
ling job with 'em, I wouldn't mind
following that wagon myself. . '. ;
"You will run onto my old dad up
there Charley, for he was a real cow
hand and I bet he is running a wa
gon, and you will pop into some well
kept ranch house over under, some
cool shady trees and you will be
asked to have dinner, and it will be
". the best one you ever had in your
-. life. Well, when you are a thanking
the women folks, you just tell . the
sweet looking little old lady that you
know her boy back on an outfit you
used to rep for,-and tell the daugh
ters that you knew their brother,
and if you see a cute little rascal
.running around there kiss him for
v me. Well, cant write you any more
" Charley dam papers all wet, it must
- be raining in this old bunk house.'
"Of course we are all just hang
ing on here as long as we can. I
- don't know hy we hated to go, we
' know jts better . there. Mayby its
because we havent done anything
a that will live after we are gone.

, He recommends that the birds be
given good feeding, a clean range,
plenty of-clean fresh water, and a
clean comfortable house or shelter.
By keeping the birds healthy and
getting them to put oh as much fat
and body weight as they , can, they
can-be brought into lay with a re
serve of flesh and -energy to meet
the demands of the laying season.
Sexual maturity should be' delay
ed in order to give the birds a chance
to put on weight before starting to
lay. Do not give early hatched pul
lets a feed high in protein. Avoid
mouldy or chaffy feeds, or such ma
terial as corn ground with the cobbs.
If the birds fail to grow well, exa
mine them for internal and external
parasites, Maupin says. If mites or
lice are found, clean the roosting
quarters and treat the "birds' at once.
For round worms or "tapeworms, give
the pullets a reliable worm - treat
