the present month they are averaging z
each day, and at this writing eggs are
bringing As cents per dozen and still
the question arises, "Does it pay to keep
poultry?'
In one sense of the word will say that
it does and from another viewpoint my
answer is that it does not.
In the first place if we try to keep more
stock and poultry than our farm can
produce food for, can say from ex-
perience that it does not pay for the old
saying is true that one acre of soil, well
manured and titled, is worth more than
ten acres permitted to lay for years with
out attention. 1t does pay if we so man.
age the farm that we can, after generous
feeding, have ton of hay, few BUSH
els of oats and buckwheat and corn left
over, instead of starving the stock dur
ing the spring months.
A few more words and am done. In
the first place set your hens as early as
possible without danger of chilling the
eggs. Have your chickens all hatched
out not later than the middle of Nav.
and not more than you can keep at that,
as late hatched pullets will not lay dur
ing the winter months, hence there is no
profit in them.
Let us hear from some other poultry
raiser. J. +. HALEY.

The preservation or destruction of

Are You One of Them.

The housewife VINO has been induced
to buy phosphate baking powder by
grocers or canvassers will be some
what chagrined to learn that this
character of goods is made from
burned bones mixed with diluted oil
of vitriol.
1t seems that there is no law COM
pelling these long shot boys to print
the ingredients on the can and hence
the consumer is easily deceived. Goods
of this class cost very little to manu-
facture-about 8 or cents per pound,
not much more than the price Of the
bone or alum from which they are
made.
We find upon investigation, that
the only real baking powder is made
from cream Of tartar, soda, and a
small per cent Of starch to add to Its
keeping qualities. All the good
brands have the ingredients printed
on the label. I2-I5-3t

early history of Oregon and was the
founder of Oregon City. In the old
residence, which is now threatened
with destruction, he spent the latter
years of his life and under its roof
were entertained scores Of famous
men, whose lives and work have been
closely identified with the history OF
the founding and upbuilding of our
state government.
The cost of moving the building to
new location and reuovating it
would not be great and the movement
for its preservation should not be
made an affair of only local interest,
but should be entered into by all Of

THE POULTRY SHOW.

"Bigger and better than last year
is the expressed opinion Of visitors tc
the second annual show held by the
Polk County Poultry Raisers' Associa
tion. II that be the case, the Show is
certainly achieving the results fol
which it was instituted To improve
the quality of the poultry stock OF
Polk county, to lead to a more careful
and scientific study and practice OF
poultry raising, TO arouse a more
widespread interest in this business
and eventually make it one Of the
leading industries of Polk county, for
these purposes the Poultry Raisers'
Association was organized
AS the most effective means Of
inspiring the farmers and poultry
breeders of the county to work toward
those ends, the idea of holding a pOul-
try show was suggested and one year
ago the first annual show Of the Polk
County Poultry Raisers' Association
was given.
The show was held more as an
experiment than anything else and
many doubts we're entertained as to
the possibility Of its success. In spite
of those doubts however, it was a sue
cess and the magnitude OF that success |
has been adequately measured only |
by the evidences of development in
the second show which is now being |
held.
During the past few years, two
events each season have been noted
with especial interest by people resid-
ing, not only in Oregon, but in many
other states. Those two events were
the annual Angora Goat Show and
the School Childrens' Industrial Fair.
Now the annual Polk County Poul-
try Show bids fair to rise to like con-
dition of prominence 10 the interest Of
the people of the Pacific Coast, and
such citizens of the East also as are
interested in the resources and pros
poets Of Oregon All this is we'll, for
it is upon the interest aroused among
people living in other places that
community must rely largely for the
increase Of immigration that brings
growth and prosperity.
For that reason then the persons
vh) are directing this enterprise
deserve the hearty approval and
cordial support and encouragement of
every citizen Of Polk county.
