PROPER METHODS
PRODUCE RESULTS
PROMINENT CHICAGO POULTRY
MAN TELLS HOW HENS CAN
DOUBLE LAYING CAPACITY.
Proper Housing and Feeding Will Aid
in Increasing Egg Production
Impressed With This Section.

The proper housing and feeding OF
poultry will insure profitable results,
even from the most common breed,
and if poultry farmers will observe
the proper methods they will get great
results. Such was the opinion ex-
pressed today by w. F. Priebe of Chi
cago, head of the w. F. Priebe COM
pany, manufacturers of fancy cream
cry butter, packers of the finest poul-
try and eggs in the middle west hav-
| ing modern packing plants equipped
with mechanical refrigeration, in
scores of towns of Minnesota, Iowa,
! Illinois and Missouri. Mr.. Priebe was
an arrival in Moscow Tuesday, accom-
panied by his wife, to visit at the
home Of their son-inlaw and duagh-
ter, Mr.. and Mrs. H. H. Simpson, who
reside on a farm northeast of the city.
Mr.. Priebe is considered an author
ity on the raising and packing of
poultry having been engaged in the
business for many years. The plants
of the company located at various
points have capacity for housing
100000 birds.
Experiments have proven, Mr..
Priebe says, that farmers can easily
double and treble the production OF
eggs provided the most simple rules
are observed in the first place.
said Mr. Priebe, 'the hens must be
properly housed. Seasons of the year
may make little difference if they are
kept where their feet will not become
damp. Their feet must by all means
be kept warm, not heated, but rather,
dry. Care should also be taken in
feeding the proper kind of food. Hens
should not be given fattening food.
If these rules are followed out poul- /
try raisers will readily see the re-
suits. Poultry and eggs will always
command good price as long as |
high priced meats prevail"
The present trip is Mr.. Priebe's
first and he is greatly impressed with !
the country He came over the Mil
and after his arrival here at
once expressed his pleasure with the
II like the looks of the
and the people seem ener-
yetic."
While here Mr.. Priebe visited the
and seemed highly i'm
pressed. He had an opportunity to
view the farming district and says that
he soil looks rich and profitable. He
leclares that from what he has seen
lere that the land seems the same
character as found in certain parts of
owa where it is rolling and hilly.
Ir. Priebe will start for home tomor-
ow while Mrs. Priebe will remain |
or several weeks visit. II

BREAD TESTING
AT UNIVERSITY
DOMESTIC SCIENCE DEPARTMENT
CARRYING ON EXTENSIVE
EXPERIMENTS.
Idaho Housewives viii be Able to De-
termine What Variety of Wheat
Flour Will Make Best Bread.

One of the most interesting and val
liable experiments ever performed al
the university is that now being con
Quoted by Miss Norman Davis, instruc-
tor in domestic science, with regard to
the various Idaho wheat flours and the
proper recipes to use in making good
bread of these flours. The expert
ments are most exhaustive and will
not be completed until summer. 1t is
the purpose of Miss Davis's work to
determine just how housewives should
make their bread in order to insure
perfect results with the different
brands of Idaho hours.
In order that no possibility of mis-
take may enter into the material work
ed on. the wheat berry is ground in the
college of agriculture, its composition
determined. and the flour then sent to
the domestic science laboratories. AT
present fifty-four fours are on hand,
all of which were milled last spring.
1t is expected that this season an ad-
ditional hundred brands will be milled
for future experiments.
Although the details of her complet
ed experiments are not entirely set
tied on, Miss Davis has decided on a
certain procedure which she is now fol-
lowing out. She is using at present
the straight wheat fours without any
blends or mixtures. She is using for
the first series one recipe only and is
tabulating all the results she gets in
regard to each variety of wheat Every
day she makes six loaves of bread
from three different kinds of flour The
conditions under which the mixing and |
baking are done are absolutely uni
form and perfectly regulated BY the |
weighing of her materials and by a |
regulated oven she can |
be sure of establishing conditions that |
will be alike every day. In the recipe |
now used Miss Davis does not include |
any lard Later she will run through |
the whole series with many different |
recipes. The object of all her efforts
will be to test out wheats so as to
work out eventually a way to make
perfect bread with different fiours now
in Idaho.
When the work is completed. a bull
letin will be published for distribu
ton, and careful instruction will be
given in extension courses as well as
in the class-rooms here as to the pro-
per way to make bread. Those house
wives who now meet great difficulties
in getting bread that is not sour will
await with interest whatever Miss
Davis has to tell them.

Huerta sent Diaz on a mission to
Japan to thank the government there

to endeavor to bring about Huerta's

army were Huerta's problems. He
set about to do these things, but every
dollar he raised by taxation only made
him new enemy and every peon
