Spurred on by the success attending
the first annual poultry exhibition, the
members of the Salt Lake County Poul-

ing poultry section OF Utah. Already
the association has adopted this slogan:
- Murray IS to Utah what Petaluma is
to California And the bers of the
association believe that the showing
made by the chicken fanciers in the vi
cInlty of Murray warrants the slogan.
AT the present time there are $4,000
hens within radius of five miles from
Murray, In making the estimate the
members Of the association have given
attention only to the poultrymen, who

"SIX-BIT" BIRD
IS PRIZE WINNER

First OF all, L. E. Lauretzen of Muir
ray s newspaper man. But in the
past few years he has given his spare
time and attention TO raising chickens.
OF course he didn't 90 into the bust
ness on large scale, nor did he give
more than passing attention to the
scientific facts associated with the
poultry industry.
Just before the Murray chicken show
opened last week Mr.. Lauretzen went
TO the Offices of the association with an
apology. The apology hinged about a
rooster. Rhode Island Red, that
couldp Z win in a show with only two
entries. At least this was the explana-
ton Of Mr.. Lauretzen.
The apology itself consisted Of the
statement that his children wanted him
TO take this "six-bit'' - rooster to the
chicken show. He fully realized that
the bird bad no chance, but was willing
10 sacrifice the entrance fee TO please
his children
The apology WAS accepted and the
cockerel was one of the proudest birds
in the Rhode Island class, When the
Judge, ", w Browning Of Ogden. came
to the Lacretzen exhibit he looked at
the bird and whistled. He looked again
and Immediately set TO work scoring,
Mr.. Cbanticleer was subject to d
minute inspection, but his faults were
few and far between. After the Judge
was through, the Z" sikh bird proved
to be the highest scoring cockerel in
the show, scoring 941s points. More
over, the judge pronounced him to be
the best specimen of the Rhode Island
Red variety he had ever seen. Further
outlining the qualities OF the bird, Mr..
Browning said that no matter what po.
sition the bird stood in, he made bet.
ter picture than the standard Of per-
fection. And so a blue ribbon was
tackled upon the coop of the "six.bit"
bird. Before the show closed the proud
owner, who had hearkeued unto the
pleadings OF his children, refused $25
for the bird. The bird was hatched
from an egg purchased from Mavor
George 4. Iuscher of Murray. The
father was on exhibition at the Murray
show and took away first honors in the
cock class, Next year the young bird
will be in the cock class, and the bat
tie for first place promises to be n fight
between father and son.

this end, the poultrymen organized the
Salt Lnke County Poultry association,
With more natural advantages than
California the Murray chicken fanciers
believe they can exceed even the record
of Petaluma, In line with this belief,
the association has arranged for the
erection of a grain elevator in Murray
to enable the poultrymen of the sur
rounding country to purchase their
grain ut the lowest prices.
The elevator Will have a capacity of
twenty cars of grain and will be built
on Seventeenth South street, between
the Oregon Short Line and the Denver
s. Rio Grande tracks. BY this arrange
ment the members of the association
will have the benefit of wholesale grain
prices, thus enabling them TO realize
more on their flocks.
Another movement 10 benefit the
poultry industry of Utah has also been
undertaken by the members Of the Salt
Lake County association. 1T is planned
to erect n factory for the manufacture
Of chicken foods. A salt Lake concern,
which already is engaged in the manu-
facture OF chicken feed as a byproduct,
has offered to join with the Murray
fanclers in The erection of this plant.

Commercial club next Monday, at
which the final arrangements will prob

SHOW A SUCCESS

County Delighted Over
the Results.
ATTENDANCE is LARGE
Another Feature IS That EX-
hibition More Than Paid
, Expenses.
ATTENDANCE Is LARGE

Establishing the unique record of be
inc the first Utah show TO pay OK
penses at the initial poultry show, the
first annual exhibition o. the Salt Lake
County Poultry association came to a
successful close at Murray yesterday.
While past history Of Utah poultry as
sociatiops seems TO indicate that every
first exhibition must be staged at loss,
the Salt Lake county organization, the
infant poultry association of Utah, will
have money left after paving all of the
expenses of the first annual show.
This attainment the officers Of the as
sociation look upon as an evidence OF
the success OF future shows When the
second annual show is held next year
they hope to attain more enviable
record and declare that the second an
pnal exhibition OF the county associa-
tion will be marked by the biggest dis
plRy OF Thoroughbred birds ever brought
under one roof in Utah.
Despite the fact that disagreeable
weather prevailed throughout the week,
the daily attendance at the Murray
show maintained an average of more
than 900 persons day. Considera bic
interest was manifested in the various
competitions. AS a result OF this. many
sales were made at the show rooms and
the southern end Of Salt Lake county
now numbers among its residents sew

GREATER THINGS
BEING PLANNED

AS an indication OF the interest
aroused by the first annual poultry
show of the Salt Lake County Poultry
association at Murray, j. w. McHenry.
president of the Murray Commercial
club, is agitating movement which
will make Murray perpetual livestock
show town. While the idea is the direct
result of the chicken show. the plan
fathcrcd by Mr.. McHenry will extend
to all other livestock.
The Commercial club president favors
the erection Of a large hall where live
stock can he shown all winter. One
week would be set, aside for the dis
play Of chickens. another week would
be gwen over TO Il certain breed OF
horses, still another week would be de.
voted TO cattle, and so OH down the line
until every breed of livestock in the
vicinity Of Murray had had an oPpor
tunity to parade before the public
In short, the plan Of Mr.. McHcnry
is to have n small county fair, arranged
in sections so as To cover the entire
winter. Through this arrangement Mr..
MciIenry believes the quality OF Muir.
ray livestock can be brought to the di-
rect attention of the outside public.
Further, ha declares. people desiring TO
buy livestock would know right where
TO go to get it.

feasible. The building could he erected

place could be kept clean and sanitary

Looking to Future.

Although interested in poultry In n
small way for some time past, Mr.. Nc.
Henry has never looked upon the iu-
dustry as M individual business. I'M
bued with the results of the first show
and the quality of birds exhibited, Mr..
McIIcury has now decided TO increase
bis fiocks. During show week Mr.. Nc
Henry placed an order for 800 White
Legborus. Other large orders have been
placed and officers Of the association
declare that another year viii see the
fIocks OF the southern part of Salt Lake
county more than doubled.
Tho innovation of holding a poultry
show in Il clean and we'll lighted and

association declare, is largely RESPONSE
