SOUTHERN OREGON POULTRY
ASSOCIATION BYLAWS

The Courier this morning publishes
the bylaws OF the Southern Oregon
Poultry association, as many persons
In Grants Pass and Josephine coun-
ty are interested In the success OF
this new organization. Fifty mem
bers, and probably more than that
number, will come from this vicin-
fly, as II Is recognized that the ad-
vantages to breeders are many, one
being that poultry feed will be bought
In carload lots, each member to prof
II by the lower cost, thus making a
saving of a generous sum OF money
each year. Another advantage will
be that when the organization Is In
working order an expert Judge will
come to Grants Pass and score the
birds OF all members, which means
that thoroughbred chickens In this
region will command higher prices
than exists at present, when all birds,
aristocratic or common, are on the
same dollar level.
e. j. Harris, Il. s. Veatch and 9th
ers in Grants Pass are OF the belief
that Grants Pass will form strong
element in the association and all
persons interested in chickens can
get membership blanks from Mr..
Harris or Mr.. Veatch.
Annual exhibitions will be held,
alternating between Grants Pass and
Ashland.
Purchase Of one or more shares of
stock gives to the purchaser mem
bership In the association. Cost of
each share Is IS, payable In INSTALL
ments running through three years,
though the member owning more
than one share of stock has 70 more
voice and vote than the member own
Ing only one share.

lows:

.SHAD BAKE PLANS
FOR THIS YEAR ON
Members of Congress Likely
to Attend Board Of
Trade Outing

The annual shad bake Of the Board Of
Trade is TO be held this spring as usual.
At a meeting of the executive committee
of the board this afternoon, II was
unanimously agreed that a favorable
report upon the question Of holding II
should be made to the board of d.
rectors Monday afternoon.
The place has not been selected. The
directors will appoint a special commit
tee to work out the details. AS Con-
gress will be in session this spring,
large number Of Senators and Repre-
sentatives probably will attend.
Seven new members were elected to-
day, as follows: e. ]. Walsh, Arthur
D. Joll, Henry. D. Schmidt, John r.
Thomas, Fred Drew, and A. T. Coumbe.
The question Of amalgamatton with the
Chamber Of Commerce, which was dis
cussed at last nights meeting Of the
membership OF the Chamber, did not
receive coDsiderstion. The Board OF
Trade now claims 80 members in good
standing, which. they say. is larger
roll than that Of the Chamber.
Seven new members also we're elected
by the Chamber Of Commerce at the
meeting last night of its membership
committee. The new members are: Otto
w, Hines, william F. Brooks. John
Lynch. G. Oppenheimer, J. F. Cissel.

WOOL SCHEDULE,
THEN RECIPROCITY
Treaty to Be Used AS Club
for Revision, 1t Is
Said.

Chairman Underwood. OF the Ways
and Means Committee. today expressed
the opinion that his committee would be
ready to report a textile schedule to the
House two weeks after Congress con-
yenes. Mr.. Underwood refrained from
specifying what textile schedule would
be ready at that time. but II is gener-
ally believed that the subcommittee in
charge of the wool schedule has been
making such rapid progress during the
past week that the wool schedule first
will be presented to the House for con-
sideration.
There has been considerable specula-
ton as to whether the Democrats will
attempt a revision of any OF the sched-
ules of the Payne-AIdnch law before
putting through the Canadian reciproc-
ft.y In some quarters Mr.. Underwood s
statement regarding an early report On
the wool schedule is taken TO mean that
the Senate and the President will first
be asked to consider that schedule, the
Democrats to hold the reciprocity bill
back until such time as the Senate and
the Administration signify their inten-
ton to accept the material reductions
which are certain to be made in that
schedule.

HOLDS UP MESSAGE
TO EXTRA SESSION
Taft Waiting Till More Party
Leaders Come to
Town.

President Taft has put off writing his
message until more Of the party leaders
reach the city for the extra session of
Congress, and is not expected to begin
the rough draft of 1t until about the
end Of this week.
The present indications are that the
message will be very brief. 1t will deal
largely with reciprocity and may be
confined wholly to that subject. 1t Is
suggested today that the Executive will
simply reiterate in his coming message
the reasons advanced in the first reci-
procity message, why the trade relations
of the two countries should be closer,
This will be accompanied by the nnd-
ings Of the officials who negotiated the
treaty and by the letter of Secretary
Knox urging that the pact be entered
Into.
Those who have talked to the Presi
dent about his forthcoming message say
that he is st11l Of the opinion that IL
would be unwise to incorporate in that
Instrument any recommendation except
that devoted to reciprocity. This means
that the Tariff Board proposition will
be left for later considera ton, II II
should be urged at all by the Presi-
dent.
