With very few exceptions, turkey
farming is an industry that is un-
known in the Northwest. Almost
every farmer who keeps fowls of any
sort raises a few of the birds that are
so highly priced on Thanksgiving day,
and no feast during Christmas week
is considered fit to be partaken of
unless graced by their very presence;
but then the growing of turkeys as a
specially is almost unheard of
Local markets must needs depend
for their supply of turkeys upon the
uncertain supply to be furnished by
the farmer who, If his inclination
and the absence of pests and disease
allowed to rear half dozen more of
the fowls than he needed for his OWE
use.
Daily the turkeys are being brought
to town. The back of almost every
lumber wagon contains crate of the
red crested birds or few sacks of
the creatures, with their knotty. Won
dering heads protruding from holes
in the gunny. Like the house wife
disposes of her superfluous hens or
extra dozen of eggs, the farmer sells
his turkeys. The time has not yet
come when the general raising of tur-
keys i'm Oregon will be an industry
as closely as the fattening of
swine, chickens, sheep or cattle.

The simple, truthful story of Amer-
lean home life as told by James A.
Herne in Shore Acres" has won the
approval and applause of all classes
OF theatergoers throughout the coun-
try and the success gained by his mas.
terly work during the last IL years is
justly deserved.
The play tells the story of the liSss
of the fisherman farmers who live
along the rock-bound coast OF abe
Pine Tree state and tells 1t in such n
natural way that one cannot fail to be
interested. Mr.. Herne lived among
ms characters nearly two years and
he became thoroughly familiar with
their idiosyncrasies.
The types he has introduced in
Shore Acres are not exceptionaI

ADVERTISING THE FAIR.
Over 100000 900 Words so Far Printed
by Publicity Bureau.

The officials of the Lewis and Clark
exposition evidently have made a ten
strike in establishing a general press
bureau to promote its interests. AL
though the publicity department is
only two weeks old the results of its
endeavors are strongly felt at head
quarters, says the Oregon Daily Jour
nal
In the little room turned over to
Manager Frank L. Merrick and his
assistant w, L. Brindley, there is a
scrapbook containing 13S pages of
clippings sent in from various news
papers that have used the matter sent
from the general publicity bureau.
This total includes all kinds of arti-
cles. descriptive and otherwise con-
corning the fair. Since it was estab-
hshed six mimeographed letter of o.
600 words have been sent out by the
bureau to not less than 5000 papers.
This has caused two duplicating ma
chines to work overtime. The mat
ter thus provided the country press is
nearly always used. as demonstrated
by the remarkable returns of clip
pings.
1t is an astonishing statement. but
nevertheless a fact that over 40, ,OOO,-
600 words have been printed in the
United tSates about the Lewis and
Clark exposition within fortnight.
And yet there are local people who
profess to believe that the show has
not been advertised.

OIL IN ALASKA.
Kayak Prospects Have Been Hidden
to Prevent Stampede.

to Prevent u Stampede.
The oil operators who are working
in the oil fields in the vicinity of VAL
dez and on Kayak island, are seeking
to prevent stampede of other oper-
ators to that section by sending out
unfavorable reports of the district. by
means of which they have the pick
of the fields to themselves, says the
Seattle Star.
In spite of the unsavory reports
that have been arriving in the city
during the fall months many of those
who have been investigating the mat
ter believe that something is behind
the silence maintained by those re-
turning from the district, inasmuch
as nothing but mitigating repots could
be cleaned from them in regard to
the subject
This led to an investigation being
made by men who wished to invest
their capital in Alaska oil, with the
result that a special agent hired by
several citizens, was sent to the coun-
try for the purpose of .ascertaining
Just exactly how matters stood. AS the
result of the investigation 1t developed
that many of the companies operating
in the oil fields Of the north had
struck large deposits of oil. and the
only worry that they had was to keep
other oil operators from learning Of
their success.
The reason for the attempt on the
part of the operators to keep the
matter quiet is due to fear ON
their part that other large companies
would drive them out of the district
before they had chance to realize
on their work.
