POULTRY SHOWS
Of NORTHWEST
PLACES OF MEETING THIS FALL
Interest in the Business seems Greater
Than Ever Before-Dates and
Officials Names Given.

Thirteen poultry exhibitions will be
held this year in different cities in the
northwest. The principal shows will
of course be in Tacoma, Seattle, Spo-
kane, Portland, Salem. Ore, Ellensburg
and North Yakima. A complete pro-
gram has been prepared and is now
being sent to bird fanciers throughout
| the northwest. All breeders of fancy
birds have been requested to place
their birds on exhibition and for the
response 1t is believed that the shows
this fall and winter will exceed all
others in interest.
Harry II. Collier of Tacoma, who has
been breeding Barred and Buff Rocks
and Black Langshans for years. has
been signally honored by the different
state poultry associations. He has
been appointed by the State Fair as
ISOLATION of North Yakima superin-
tendent of the poultry show and will
have complete charge Of that branch
of the state exhibits. He will also have
charge Of the Spokane show, having
been appointed superintendent Of the
same department by the Inter State
Fair association Of that city. In addi-
ton, Mr.. Collier has been named as
superintendent of the poultry depart
ment at the Puyallup valley fair.
Increased interest is being manifest
ed by the bird fanciers in the different
shows, and the idea is advanced that
higher grade Of birds should be
placed on exhibition. Breeders have al
ready written to Mr.. Collier asking
e.. to
ent shows will be held, and all have
signified an intention Of placing their
birds on exhibition. Tacoma birds will
be in demand, as there is more blooded
poultry raised in that city than any
where else in the northwest. Fern
Hill and South Tacoma will furnish
their quota. The dates for holding the
