Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 100, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 April 1915 — KEEP UP THE CHICKENS. [ARTICLE]

KEEP UP THE CHICKENS.

Probably there is no one thin'g that causes more trouble thsin loose chickens. An old hen can tear up more garden and flower seed in a forenoon than an industrious person can plant in a tfeek. The Republican is thus appealed to by a taxpayer: “To The Republican: - v “Will you kindly inform people through your columns to-keep their chickens on their own premises? I think it a shame that this order cannot be enforced. There is no pleasure in trying to keep your lawn in good shape when people have the liberty to violate plans for beautifying.— A Tax Payer."
