Show oo CHICKENS SHOULD BE ENCLOSED. "Is there an ordinance in Ogden compelling people to keep tholr chickens chick-ens enclosed?" That question is put to tho Standard in a letter from a woman who says: "If so, why do not the proper authorities au-thorities compel them to do so? It Is discouraging to have evory bulb, seed or plant scratched out by your neighbor's chickens." There Is a city law making it a misdemeanor mis-demeanor to allow chickens to trespass, tres-pass, and tho penalty Is a fine of from $1 to 5300. In Ogden, it is the exception where chickens are properly enclosed, but there should be a change. All owners own-ers of chickens first should bo notified noti-fied and given time in which to pro-vido pro-vido for properly caring for their fowls, and then the law should be enforced to the letter. |
