A, Time* reporter had the pleasure
yesterday afternoon 01 looking
through the batching room* and
poultry yard* of Mr. J. G. Mackey,
who la flat becoming as good a

To a layman's mind the arrange
ments about the place are perfect,
and wo doubt If the raoet critical
expert could mueter any objections
In hla Incubators Mr. Mackey baa
nearly 600 eggs which will hatch
within the next tew days When
the chicks are two days old he take*
thorn out Into tha yards and placet
them In brooders which are'kept In
specially constructed coops that ad
mit of their belng^^ed down anng
and dry when the^g^her la bad,
and which can be raiecu^'mltting
aH the sunlight and air needed In
good weather. The chick* are kept
in their coopt all the time, whore
they have plenty of room' for exer
cise, and grow at an amaxlng rate.
The poultry house and runs which
Mr. Mackey had built from hla own
Ideas are the moat complote we ev
er eagr." Each breed of fowls hat Its
own run. fenced off with high win
netting and with separate compart
ments In the fowl bonae. The pro
visions for (coding, watering and oth

SUNDAY FISHING NOT ALLOWED
Law Passed by Legislature Couple
of Yeare Ago.
Thli is fishing time. There la a
certain tingling In the fingers that
can he satUHed only by grasping k
good rod. But if you want to ob
serve the law, you mutt not yield to
temptation and seek to lure the fes-
tlvo bream or trout from their
watery home on the Holy Sabbath.
Few people know It, and nobody
observes It, but there Is a law
against fishing on Sunday. It was
passed during the 1907 tesslon of
the legislature and reads as follows:
*‘8ectlon 1. Be It 1 enacted by the
general assembly of Georgia, and It
!i hereby enacted by authority of the
same, that from and after the pas
sage of "tbit set, any person or per-
sons who shall fish or attempt to
■Ml fish with hook and line. net*.
;g!gs. or by any other manner or
ttbana In any of the waters or
streams within the state of Georgia
pn the Sabbath day shall be guilty
qf a middemeanor, and on conviction
ahhll be punished as prescribed bi
section 1036, volume S of v the code
of 1895.
?*8ec. 2. Be It further enacted by
the authority aforesaid, that all lawt
and parts of laws In conflict with
this act be, and the same are here
by. repealed/*
While this law has been on the
statutes of Georgia, for nearly two
years, not a slnglo instance, as far
ns Is known, has there been a case
for Its violation, while ft le known
that the law Is disregarded in all
sections of the etate.
