BY G. l.. Wood, Poultry Editor.

- HE Tacoma Poultry Association
announces its twenty-ninth an
nnal exhibition for the Week OF
December 20 to January 2. The Ia
coma organization is the second old
est In the United States, and Justly
claims to have fathered the thorough
bred poultry industry on the Western
Coast. 1t has a large and growing
membership that takes an active per-
sOnal interest in the annual exhibits.
and each year the show has been
growing larger and better. The Ia
coma boys come to the front this
year with every prospect for the best
exhibit Tacoma and surrounding ter
ritory has ever had.
It will be an official show of the
American Poultry Association and
Will be judged by w. s. Russell, of
Ottumwa, Iowa. Judge Russell has
enjoyed an envied prominence among
poultry judges throughout the coun-
try for many years and his name is
especially familiar at this time, the
Judge having been recently appointed
head Of the poultry department, of
the Panama-Pacific Exposition, in
San Francisco. He will be a big
drawing card for this event.
Besides the regular cash prizes
and silver cups offered the winners,
the Tacoma merchants have con-
tributed liberal special prizes of both
cash and merchandise.
The White Wyandotte members
are planning on a cash purse of $50
to be offered by the National White
Wyandotte Club to be competed for
by members Of that organization. A
$25 cash prize on the best White
W%yandotte hen at the last years
show resulted in the largest entry
Of this popular breed of any of the
Coast shows. However, the Tacoma
organization has used good Judgment
in distributing tie extra prizes so
that all the breeds will come in for
a good share Of the specials.
The big special feature that is
new to Coast shows and Is expected
to draw a large number Of entries
from surrounding states, is the
Championship Event.
In order to compete in the cham
pionship class all fowls must have
won either q first, second or third
premium (entered singly) at some
show held after August /, 1914. For
birds entered In this class an extra
entry fee of 81 is charged. How

ever, all the entry money in this
event will be paid back to the win
ners in SO, 80 and 20 per cent re-
spectively for first, second and third
honors. The more high-class speci-
mems that can be attracted to the
show, the better the event.
The big banquet at the close OF
the show is an annual event with the
organization and will be held on
New Years night. It's a get-together
and talk-it-over affair and the old
boy Gloom" never gets In on this
occasion. Judge Collier who is
handling the publicity end Of the
show, says about the big feed: at
will be n of those swell affairs
where chicken talk will be the only
conversation and no joke will 60 un-
less there is a chicken in 1t some
where"
The Tacoma breeders are boosting
hard for this years show. They
want every breeder to send all the
birds he can, to come himself II
possible, and the good hand Of fell
lowship will be extended.
Entries close December 10 and all
birds must be in the showroom by
8 P. M, December 28. Entry blanks
and other information will be
promptly furnished by J. A. Caddey,
secretary, P. o. box 1923, Tacoma,
Wash.
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1914-12-17

the mash is fed in the morning it
has a tendency to fill the fowls too
quickly, and they will get lazy.
Don't Feed Too Much.
Do not feed too much. The birds
will be more active and have a bet
ter circulation If they can be kept
with a little unsatisfied appetite.
This does not mean to underfeed
them, as a laying hen should have all
she will eat up clean. The alert
breeder who wishes to know just
how much TO feed his birds to keep
them active, will soon find out for
himself. Good, healthy, normal pull
lets will lay when kept busy and con-
tented.
The scratching exercise stimulates
the circulation and puts every organ
in working order. This is the condi-
ton necessary to secure eggs in Win
ter. Green of some kind should be
fed every day. Kale, cauliflower or
lettuce is excellent green food, and
where none of this is at hand,
sprouted oats can be used. A dry
food hopper helps the egg account.
Plain bran and a little beef scrap
can be used, but one part each oat
middlings and wheat middlings and
two parts bran is much better. Fish
meal can be substituted for beef
scrap and is considerably cheaper.
Keep Quarters Clean.
Above all things keep the quarters
clean. Remove the droppings at
least twice a week and oftener If
possible. Paint the roosts with ker-
osene and a little crude earbolic acid
each week. Keep the fowls free from
body lice. A lousy hen cannot be
expected to lay. 1t is not easy to
locate lice on hens always, and every
hen is lousy to a more or less ex-
tent, that has not been effectively
treated.
The birds with the red combs and
wattleA that go singing about the
place are the ones that are Smelling
out the eggs. Take a look we the
pens and If you have leg-banded your
birds you can locate the ones that do
not respond to the egg-making condi-
lions. Unless there are some par
ticular reasons for saving these, send
them to market. Save the expense
Of feeding these non-producers, and
do not let them get into your breed
ing pens later.

Efficiency of Hen.

Fowls differ in a great many ways
from other farm animals. This is
especially true in the manner of food
digestion and assimilation, and in
their requirements for maintenance
and production. They are character
lied by intense vitality; their growth
and production being exceedingly
rapid, their lives are v sluggish.
In this connection DR.. Jordan, OF the
New York Agricultural Experiment
Station, says that the hen is just
twice as efficient as the dairy COW
in her ability to transform food ma
terials into a finished product for
human food.

A "Sport" Hen.

At the poultry show in Boyertown,
Pa, in January, Elliott Herbine, a
Rhode Island Red breeder, of Obey,
Pa, had a hen on exhibition that
was a true Rhode Island Red hen
except that she was covered with
hair" instead of feathers, like a
Silky. She was a sport" from Mr..
Herbine's flock.

BREACH BETWEEN

Mutineers and Federal Troops Fight
Near American Lines at
Vera Cruz.

Washington, d. c., July 7.--Re
ports tonight from Torreon said that
the conference between the repre-
sentatives OF General Carranza ard
General Villa had ended and that
their differences would be satisfac-
torily adjusted. This served to en-
courage officials at Washington
with the hope that the situation of
the Mexican trouble soon may be
successfully concluded.
The mutiny which has broken out
amongst the. Mexican Federals at
Vera Cruz was the subject of keen
interest in American quarters and
several messages on the subject
were received from General Funston
who rported that fighting between
the mutineeCs and the Federals was
in progress. The Mexican Federal
commander previously had warned
General Funston that the mutineers
had threatened to attack the Ameri-
can lines. Officials here see danger
for Genera i1uerta should the mu-
tiny cut off his means of escape
from Mexico City.

New Firm is Composed of L. c.
Lenck and D. A. Martin of
This City.
NEW FACTORY WILL MAKE
GRATING LUMBER, ETC.
May Decide on Utilizing the Plant
Formerly Operated by the
Fisher Co.

Cairo ia to have another new
manufacturing industry. The new
concern VIII be launched in a few
days and viii be quite an addition
to the numerous plants already 10
Gated here,
The rev firm Ia composed of J..
c. Lenck and D. A. Martin Mr..
, Lenck was formerly vice-president
OF the Niasiss pp Cox Company
having just. recently resigned his
position. Mr. Martin was formerly
uperintendent of the Mississippi
BoX company and has also just re-
| Gently resigned.
The location of the plant has not
yet been decided but arrangements
are under way for the old Nordman
plant later the Fischer Mfg. Co. on
West Thirty-fourth street. If a suit
able location can not be secured it
Is the intention of the owners to
locate somewhere near Cairo, but
retain their residence here.
The concern will be incorporated
as the Lenck & Martin Company,
manufacturers of Grating lumber.
They will have quite complement
of machinery and one large ma
chine to handle heavy logs, The
logs will be RATED here. After the
logs are cut the wood will be sea-
soned and worked into Grating lum-
Der. This work is unlike that done
at the Mississippi Box. At this
plant the work consists principally
in the manufacture of box material.
Mr.. Lcnck came to Cairo in De-
cember 1910 when the Cannon Box
company plant had been acquired
and the name changed to the Mis-
sissippi Box. He rcorganiZed the
| company and built up the plant.
Mr.. Lenck originally came here
| from Muscatine, Iowa, where he
was connected with the same com
| pany. MIR. Martin also came from
Muscatine and has been here about
as long as Mr.. Lenck. Both gentle
| men and their families are well
known in Cairo and since their
short residence here they have
learned 10 like Cairo and the people
| The fact that Mr.. Lenck and Mr.
Martin were the active heads of the
| Mississippi Box will give them
quite :. prestige in their new ven
| ture.
The most important part of the
new concern is that they arc askinf
no assistance of the Association q
| Commerce or any of the Commercial
organizations. This should mean g
great thing for Cairo as many of The
new plants that have located here
have asked for substantial assist
ance.
