is due to the policy followed since this
division of prosecutions was or

satisfactory results in the way of en-
forcement of the law can be reached
by means of frequent prosecutions for
moderate penalties rather than by

punishment. This class of offenders is

is in itself substantial punishment"

Judge Harry H. Collier, of Tacoma,
who is one of the judges of the
Tenth annual poultry show being held
in Armory hall this week, was one of
the principal speakers at the weekly
luncheon of the Commercial club to-
Cay noon, taking for his theme the
Poultry Industry in the West"
He said in part:
Poultry and eggs in the northwest
have brought such high prices this
winter that a man must draw large
salary in order to have them on his
table The Puget sound country saw
the highest prices for eggs this sea-
sen that was ever known. The pres
ent high price of feed has had a ten
dency to retard the growth of the
poultry industry Many sold off
greater portion of their fiocks last fall
ard summer on the account of high
priced grain, but those who wisely
saved their hens have been bOuntiful-
Iy paid for their forethought.
when one commodity goes up an
either is sure to follow. 1t is a nat
ural law. If grain continues to raise
ir price poultry will follow as sure
as the day follows the night. The slow
thing to raise is wages and the man
who is producing something gets the
benefit of high prices where the sal
arried man is the loser.
zone familiar with the poultry in
Gustry is surprised when he is told
that many cars of eggs are shipped
into Waua Walla each year, and that
broilers brought forty cents per pound
here last spring. Eggs should be as
cheap here as they are in Kansas. You
can produce them at the same price.

oRRIs DoRMAN, OF SPOKANE, TELLS OF THE
BENEFITS TO BE DERIVED FROM THE
FARMERS WORKING TOGETHER
Address Delivered at Mid Winter Convention of the
Farmers Educational and Cooperative
Union This Morning.

Orris DOrman, of Spokane, was the
principal speaker at the meeting of
the Farmers Educational and Coop
erative union this morning, talking
on the subject Benefits that might be
realized from effective organization
and cooperation" The address in full
is as follows:
4 lay down the proposition to start
with that if the business Of farming
is as profitable as it should be, con-
sidering the capital invested, the en-
ergy expended and the risks assumed,
and if country life is such that the So
cal conditions need not be improved
upon then there is no need of organi-
zation among farmers.
These are the two principal things
that have brought into existence dur
ing the past few years in all other lines
of business, the great number of clubs
and associations we find on every
hand, and il financial and social con-
djtions among the farmers are what
they should be, all other things per-
tanning to country life will soon be
rishted
There are many of US who contend
that the financial and social condition
or those who farm in most cOmmuni-
ties could we'll be improved upon. On

"COYOTITIS" THE
WORST OF DISEASES
Chickens and Other Fowls
Discussed at the Weekly
Luncheon This Noon

Statements that brought the business
men and farmers of the city and county
to a full realization of the necessity for
concerted action for the eradication of
coyotes, We're made at the weekly
luncheon of the Commercial club in
the Dacres hotel today noon Mr. He'd
ser said he was certain that 20 per
cent of young poultry hatched in the
county was wasted through the raw
ages of these wild animals which are
allowed to prey upon the barnyard
fowls
In proving his remarks. the speaker
said he had lost all but II young tur-
keys out of a flock of 43 by the ravages
of coyotes, and classified ''coyotitis,"
as a new disease prevalent in Walla
Walla county. He gave an extended
talk upon the poultry industry in the
valley, telling what measures he had
taken to insure the greatest degree of
success while living on his term. He
offered the producers some excellent
advice, and explained the method by
which houses should be arranged and
yards supplied for the best results

the speakers of the afternoon, illus

fore could not make any weighty re-
marks relative to the poultry industry
L. r. Freeman, publisher of a farm
paper in North Yakima, spoke upon
the industry in the west, saying he
had assisted in the organization of the
state poultry association, and was the
owner of the only hens in the west that
would produce two eggs daily. Mr..

five people will ply the Des Moines
river from Keokuk to Ottumwa as
soon as the ice is out of the river and
thus the first demonstration of the
navigability of the stream will be Civ

hotel at Keosauqua, one of the most
enthusiastic boosters of the nayiga-
ton of the Des Moines stream is to
operate the small craft. and it is his
plan to begin active operation of the
boat within month or six weeks.
Mr Lining is one of the Keosauoua
representatives to be present at the
monster waterways convention In OF.

will tell fully of his plans to navigate
the Des Moines even while the work
of surveying it is in progress. 1t has
come to the attention of Capt. f. H.
Thomas that Mr. Lining has purchas.
ed twenty-five passenger boat, and
that he intends to operate it. "Mr.
Lining conducts the hotel at Keo-

proposes to convert the hotel, which
is located on the banks of the Des
Moines river in very desirable place
into summer resort. With this idea,
he has purchased small passenger
boat to be operated upon the river be-
tween Ottumwa and Keokuk. The
boat is new one, has a neat cabin
and is very light draft. 1t can be oper-
ated on twelve inches of water, and
Mr.. Lining will have 1t in operation
