FORT WAYNE SENTINEL, Raising Pigeons is Great Pastime, Declares One of the Leading Fanciers in the City Louis Schirmeyer Keeps Nothhig But the White King Variety Started a Year Ago With Thirty, Birds and Now HaTSDT Louis Schirmeyer, (he well known cigar. storo employe, besides being One. ff. the prornlnont mcrhbdrfe ot tho p.

p. O. 13., football entnnslast and general good fellow: every respect, has be come' n' fancier pt. pigeons. fn, the above plcWre he Is eeen'ftnibnff a portion of his valuable and large' flock of White King, pigeons.

He; started In t)ie pigeon business nearly a year ago with thirty birds. Slnpe that time ho has1 by careful study Increased hla flock, to nearly. 250 and states that If he had thoro space this Humour woum oniy do a shadow com pared with what he would Ilk to have. Besides being oh enjoyable pastime, Mr. Schirmeyer We Jiad better say Louie because that what everybody calls hlnMflrids that It Is a profitable Investment, The variety which he: Is breeding Is considered or.o of the best species of pigeons pn the market.

They sell for five dollars a pair, Biuabs are also In sreat demand and forty cents apiece are received Tor them; A of pi geona will raise from to twenty that, the Investment Is a godd 6ne, Expense? Well, it does Cost something to feed pigeons, However, Louie states that It just about makes' him. dig up 12.50 every week to feed. hla flock, pr about one cent per week per bird. to make a success of raising pigeons one must study his birds carefully. In the year that Louie, has been In the business he has had the misfortune, of losing but one bird by uicknes's, otherwise he has been successful In restoring all the cithers back to perfect health that were taken sick at any time.

Performs an Operation. The keeper and owner of the birds ha some very stories to tell as to how he has! posed us a physician In curing his birds. He" tellu of pno Instance where he performed im Operation on one of the birds. Jle states that for several days one of the birds Had been very slcic. anil cv'cry lie went "to the" coop' to feed the flock would rind this one lying on 'Us side nearly dead.

Jlo worked with It for several days. Finally ho decided that he Would perform fin operation on lts stomach, as he believed that was where the trouble.orlg Inated. lie caught tho bird, and; after sterilizing a sharp kntfo began to nuke the incision. He located the stomach, and bringing It near the surface made a cut Into It. He found that the pigeon bat) swallowed a piece of cord and that tffii.

Ho removed the foreign substance, and Louie! verifies the statement that tho bird really heaved a ultdi of relief when he took the cord out.

Quickly he seweil up the stomach with ordinary 'thread andthen sewed the outside Incision. The bird lived, and to prove; that this Is the' truth, you can go to Louie's house at 413 jCast Jefferson street and he will bIiow you the as healthy one us there Is In the flock. He will also' show' the scar that remains from the cut. A The Hospital Coop. At tho far end.

of the 'Pigeon coop, there Is a little, red building. This Is known os the. hospital coop, 'Every olrd that shows symptoms of not feel. coop contained five sick birds, but reports from the attending physician were to the effect that all patients were doing nicely. AH are preparing to leave In a few days.

Tobacco Stems for Nests. As everybody knows, Friend Louie is a tobacco salesman. Well, he finds that long tobacco stems make the best material for the pigeon's nest. He states that tobacco stems will keep the birds from getting lice. All that It necessary Is to put a large batch of It In the coop and tho pigeons will build their own Selecting Squabs for Market.

Care must be taken. In selecting squabs for the market, because they dare not be too old nor too. young. The average pigeon when It gets about Ing must go to the hospital Where three weeks old la ready for the mar special enre Ja taken bt It ahd nursed ket. However, the best way to tell, back to perfect health Saturday the 'according to Mr.

Schirmeyer, Is to lift up their wings and when you find that the feathers underneath the wings are starting to fall out, it Is a sign that they have the proper age. Pigeons Act Like Humans. Mr. Schirmeyer states that he sepnds many hours studying the actions of the pigeons and finds It pleasant pastime. He says that pigeons act.

nearly as human beings do. has noticed that at times a pair will hava a little family squabble; and" then the female bird refuses to sit on the nest and the papa bird goes out and enjoys himself In company with the other Invariably they make up In the course of a few "hours, but it has occurred where divorces ensue; They are. Just Uke divorce CMea In our local courts with the exception that there Is no alimony to be paid. In a few days the divorced pair again find, different mates and thereafter refuse to look at one another.
