THE NEW SALINE HATCHERY
SALINE, MICH.
Green grass now available for the poultry flock all
year round in the form of GREENMELK,
It is a combination of nature's two essential ingredients for poultry—Grass and Buttermilk
The grass is a blend of dehydrated young cereal
grasses grown on land particularly adapted to produce the maximum minerals and vitamins. It is cut
before the first jointing stage when it is at its maximum peak in vitamin and mineral potency. The
condensed buttermilk acts as a preservative for the
grass and retains the essential qualities of the grass
in its original form.
Available at the following places:

Why pay out good money for chicks and then try
to ecomonmize by buying' cheap or inferior feed?
The first few weeks of a chick's life is the
most vital. Play safe—give them a good start with
Larry Chick Builder and Larro Chick Grainis. Grit
is most essential, also.

Annual I. H. C. Day

PIONEER TIMES
In the summer of 182,4 all residents of Washtenaw* County were
'invited to a Fourth of July celebration at WoodrufE^r-Qrove. Lux-
j uries were brought frti_a. Detroit.
j These consisted of .loaf5* - sugar,
! cheese, raisins, rice" and a half-
I barrel of whiskey.
Despite the heavy snow which f ell j - ^ Woodruff ha^e only, oven
Tuesday morning a large crowd as- I m tte °°loIiy\ ^ ^aS ™ °f

Crowd of More Than Seven Hundred Gathered Here for
the Event
sembled at the Heininger store for
annual International Day 'festivities
From Rogers Corners, Willis, Freedom, Scio, Lodi, Anil Arbor and
Ypsilanti they came by one's, two's
and families. Tall and thin, fat and
lean, young and old they were all
interested in the display of new
models of machinery. Breaking into groups and cliques they discussed
such subjects as rubber tires for
tractors, new gadgets, two bolts
here.,, an improved lever there, etc.,
etc., and on and on the conversation flawed as the Roving Reporter
wandered among the crowd. By the
time noon arrived more than 700
people had crowded into the implement emporium and to inspect
the machinery, which included all
the tools used from the plowing
season through harvest.
At the signal for dinner all
formed in fine and marched along
the well filled counters where cups
of steaming* coffee, well filled plates
of delicious baked beans, sandwiches, doughnuts, pickles and cheese
awaited each, guest, and much
praise was given the hosts, Mr.
and Mra. Heininger,* _or the delicious lunch they -served.,
In the afternoon motion pictures
were shown giving demonstrations
of what the* tractors would do under all aorta of conditions. A guessing contest was staged and Vincent
Baxteresser, Gleii Feldkamp, Carl
Marion and Fred Aprill, Saline,,
James Snoddy, Britton, Lyle Mark-
ley, Gaines, and Elmer Wiedmayer,
Aim Arbor were the lucky ones.
Manwaring Brothers orchestra of
Tecumseh provided music through-
the morning. The High School band
came at noon and gave some lively
times which did them credit, especially as they were only organized
at Christmas time, Their leader,
Mr. Correll, was on hand to direct
them.
Boy Scout Program
At Rotary Club
Fish Dinner, With the Compliments
of Alwin Burkhardt, One
of the Features.
A Boy Scout program was put on
at the meeting of the Rotary Club,
at the Tavern last Thursday noon.
Scout Executive MacPeek was over
from Ann Arbor for the occasion
and three of the local scouts, under
the direction of Assistant Scoutmaster Warren Gross, presented a laughable little skit. Messrs. MacPeek
and Gross also had something to
say "for the good of the order,"
which was well received. The Boy
Scouts taking- part were Davis,
Grunewald and Thomas.
Grunewald and Thomas. Scoutmaster Francisco was also a guest.
Junior Rotarians Eldean Hanson
and Herbert Pink were on hand to
partake of a fine fi3h dinner,
the piece de resistance being generously donated t»y Alwin Burkhardt
as a result of his successful trip
north a few days before, and Mrs.
Buikhardt assisted in preparing the
meal. -.
Rotarian "BUI" Goings,, formerly
of the Milan territory but recently
removed to the vicinity of Saline,
was voted int« the club.
IRVING LEBARON
Leander Irving LeBaron passed
away Monday ' evening**, February
21, at his residence in York township. He was born February 22,
1853, in York "township, in the
same house in which he died. .Had
he lived one more day he would
have been 85. His home is over
100 years old. He. was the son of
Leander and Sally Kelsey LeBaron.
He was married to Mary Leona
Kelsey July 19;, 1925, at Saline, Rev.
Reuben Crosby performing the ceremony. He leaves the widow, at
home, a brother, Fred, of Fenton,
and several nieces and nephews.
Funeral services are being held at
the residence this (Thursday) aft-
ernooni with Rev. Walter Saxman
officiating. Burial is in Oakiwood
cemetery, Saline.
Here the good wortien baked biscuits. An ox was killed "anS "cooked
out doors. Huge logs were rolled
together, then large iron kettles
were tipped on their sides and laid,
on- the logs. Long poles or.sticks
were then laid on the kettles and
the beef laid on these sticks. The
logs were set afire. and the - beef
roasted. i-
The menu that day was indeed a
treat and consisted of chickens,
roast beef, new potatoes,,^ green
peas, beets, warm biscuits <and butter, honey, cheese, rtee ^pudding and
loaf cake, both ricttjiwith. raisins.
As a coarse corn^bread, made
of corn poursded th_pu{£i a coarse
sieve, and potatoes was.-the only
food for weeks at "a. time, it is not
hard to imagine how all must have
enjoyed the feast.
The~ afternoon of that memorable
Fourth was filled with patriotic
speeches and community singing:. In
the evening' young and old joined
in a dance.
During; 1825 the settlers were surprised one day when a drove of
56 deer passed by* the settlement.
Imagine 56 deer in Washtenaw
county today! According to their
records, lynx, wildcats and wolves
were very common here.
Indians often came to the doors
of the white settlers and were always begging for' food when they
came. *p
One family was -Annoyed greatly
by a prowling animal which frightened their dog by gradually coming
nearer and nearer, driving the dog
to the back door of their cabin. It
was during the night and the family
being tired, were impatient at being
disturbed; not many* feet away they
could hear sounds of some animal
gnawing bones. Grabbing the ever-
ready musket the settler fired in
the direction whence the noise
came. o All was quiet. Taking a
blazing brand from the fire he went
into the yard in the direction where
he had shot. Less than 30 feet
from the cabin door lay a large
gray wolf, dead. Imagine a wolf
prowling in your dooryard and nothing but a'blanket hung across the
doorway to keep him from entering
your house!
A neighboring fSSiily *-had a calf
which they were raising. Warm
summer nights she was kept in a
pen in the farm yard. Although
animals were pastured in the woods
during the day, too many wild animals lived there to trust the stock
at night.
During the night the family heard
Bessie, the calf, malting peculiar
noises. In the morning only a pile
of bones remained to show them
where Bessie had been. Stock was
scarce and money scarcer. The
only way of having -to provide milk
and butter was to raise them.
Thinkirig of the loss and the good
veal dinners she might- have provided, they determined to capture
her slayer. Tying: the bones to rails
with stout string, they piled them
up so they were as high. as the
fence."* Then setting*- three guns
aimed at the bones„tffilled with ammunition, triggers' set- and ready to
shoot, they tied them securely in
position. By means of much rope
the triggers were attached to the
rope around Bessie's bones.
That night not long after nightfall the settlers were wakened by
a loud bang! Hurrying to the calf
pen they saw the largest gray wolf
ever seen in the locality. He was
dead, Lured by the smell of fresh
veal he had walked into their trap.
Willing Workers IVleeting
The February meeting of the
Willing Workers was held at the
home of Mrs. *Ha Luckhart. This
Was an all day meeting and a lovely
dinner was served at noon.
Meeting opened by a song by the
club and Miss Fannie Friss had
charge of devotionals. The club
voted unanimously to endorse the
county library. For the program
Miss Ella McMann read an article
on Lincoln and Mrs. Agnes Osborne
read "A Valentine." The Maowi
Woman'a Club presented a broadcast
from Station "MWC", consisting of
piano. solos, vocal solos, reading of
news, poems, town crier and interviews. This proved very novel. and
and interesting.
Mrs. FitzGerald read a poem on
George Washington. .
After mizpah the club, numbering 42, adjourned to meet with Miss
Julia Gordon in March.

The Future Farmers
Have A Busy Week
Basketball Game and Father and
Son Banquet Keep the Boys
Well Occupied. '
The Future Farmers are finding
this a mighty busy week, for in
addition to the regular work they
have a basketball game with Milan
there, and that should prove inter-
ing, for the rivalry is keen. The
boys tasted victory last week by
■winning from Clinton by the score
of 16-15, and they are set to repeat
on Wednesday.
But their big job is to put over
the annual Father and Son banquet
this Thursday evening, Feb. 24. The
organization of the program, the
making of favors, the sale of tickets
and the arrangement and decoration
of the tables give them all a real
job of planning and execution.
The banquet is being prepared by
the Hme Ec. girls at 50c per plate.
That is their actual cost, so neither
the girls nor boys are making anything out of it. But there is a
splendid spirit of _. co-operation and
mutual helpfulness on the part of
everyone and that always spells success.
Monday Evening
Banquet Success
Splendid Program Enjoyed by Fathers and Sons at the St.
Paul's Church.
The St. Paul Father and Son
banquet was served at the church
Monday evening, February 21.

cake and coffee..
A. E. Hagen was toastmaster and
introduced Rev. Bauman of Bethel
church, who gave the welcome to

interesting talk taking as his topic
