WITH WENATCHEE STOCK.

The sixth annual poultry show
closes today, after a successful three
days exhibition. Judge Elmer Dixon,
of Oregon City, Ore. licensed Judge
OF the American Poultry association.
expressed himself as being greatly
pleased with the fine class of birds
that he found here. He commented
ON the full clear color of the Rhode
Island Reds, and thought that the
Houdans were as good as any in the
whole country. He further expressed
himself as being DESTROYS of owning
all the Barred Plymouth Rocks HIM
self The Leghorn class, too, got es-
pecial comment. Mr.. Heidenhain has
White Leghorn rooster that he will
not take less than 500 for. The
bird is for sale, but Mr.. Heidenhain is
not expected to get any offers.
Silkie Speaks Japanese.
One of the feature birds of the
show was a strange looking white
rooster named Silkie, price $500. Ac-
cording to the official tag on Silkie's
cage he came from Japan by airship,
is related to the Mikado and speaks
high class Japanese. 1t would puz-
zle Silkie whole lot to whip an
American rooster, unless he has some
jiu-jitsu tricks.
