GOLD NUGGET IN CHICKEN CRAW
While dressing a chicken at the Jack Blake ranch home across the long bridge, Mrs. Blake found a gold nugget in its craw. With the nugget were pieces of gravel indicating that the chicken must have picked up the nugget by an old well which was dug several years ago and filled in. Mr. Blake will prosecute a search for evidence that the gold nugget is an indication that there is "more of the same" where the chicken got hers.
NERVY CHICKEN THIEF
Friday evening in the absence of E.J. Smith from home a nervy chicken thief entered the Smith chicken coop. Mrs. Smith heard the dog barking and chickens squawking and went to the coop. The thief made a quick exit by jumping over the fence, taking a pullet with him. Unconcerned by being disturbed in the prowling work at the Smith's, the thief proceeded to Lester Cannon's hen-roost nearby and pilfered two pullets.
