he is breeding, and his sale will no
doubt attract many foreign buyers.
He states that his hogs are absolutely

Whatever the ultimate decision
may be in the railroad rate cases, the

they have an Attorney General, who

lieves to be an injustice to the people
whose interests he has sworn to pro-
tect. General Barker may have act

Unfortunately for the Democracy
of Missouri, there remain.in the state
two or three so-called Democratic
newspapers, edited, or rather black.
smithed, by politicians of the most
yirulent peanut type, and periodically
these parties, who evidently display
ed bad judgement in the late cam
paign, break forth through their
columns in TRADE of abuse against
the state administration. Every
true Democrat, regardless of what
his views. may have been pre-
vious to to the primaries, bitterly
resents these unpatriotic and unmanly
attacks upon an administration whose
every act has been commended by
the people Of the state at large, and
certainly will not allow to go=unre-
buked the selfish criticisms Of disap-
pointed political adventures.

The officers, directors and en-
ployees of the Missouri State Bank
and The Walton Trust Company en-
joyed splendid banquet in the din
ing room Of the Fraternal Inn last
Thursday evening at 1880 O'Clock.
When the twenty-six persons took
seats at one long table beautifully dec
Grated with red carnations the party
looked much like one large family.
J. B. Walton, vice president, sat at
one end and VIM. E. Walton, presi-
dent, at the other end. The dinner
was served in four courses of good
things in abundance, including turkey
with all the usual fixin's, and ended
with cigars for the gentlemen and

the speeches it was stated that w. E.
Walton and C. H. butcher had met

something and every one responded
in pleasant speech, including the five
ladies present They all protest that
they had a great time and not one
thing occurred to mar the evenings
pleasure. C. H. butcher and VIM.
E. Walton made the principalspeeches,
but all did we'll. Just before adjourn

arose and made a brief, touching
speech. and proceeded to pass to
each one present a genuine leather
pocketbook, with the name of the

3Srd anniversary passed pleasantly
away.

Puyallup, Wash, Jan. 7, 1914.
Editor Butler Weekly Times,
Dear Sir
AS this is a new year of
1914 thought | would drop you a
few lines to let you know that we are
still in the little valley OF Puyallup and
have little home of our own in the
southwest part of town which is in
creasing very rapidly in population
since last year. 1t was $500, it is
now $500.
We have five public schools and As
teachers and there are 1900 pupils
this year in school, but sickness has
taken about 80 children out of school
with the smallpox and chickenpox.
For this time of the year there is lots
OF sickness in the valley. In the sum-
mer this is one Of the prettiest valleys
on the coast. The flowers are all out
in bloom, the fruit trees and berry
vines and loaded down with fruit.
The Puyallup and Sumner Associa-
ton employs 500 women and girls
during the busy season and will ex-
coed 100000 cases. The building
covers over five acres of ground.
Puyallup has two Of the largest can
neries OF the west and its products,
such as jellies, corn, preserves, pick
les and vegetables have attained a
national reputation. Its canned ber-
ries, apples, prunes, peaches, pears,
cabbage and pumpkins are considered
the best produced on the Pacific coast.
Puyallup is the place for families that
are in need for they can earn their
own living very easy. The high
school girls work their way through
school by picking berries in the sum-
mer time. We average from four TO
six crates per day and they pay 40
cents per crate. The women that
work in the~cannery average from
$3.50 to $3.50 per day.
l think Puyallup is a city to be
proud of. There is plenty of work
for the menfolks to do. l didn't in
tend to leave them out for there are
eight saw mills and wood working
plants, including two box factories.
They employ from 400 to 600 men
and are paying $3.50 600 per year in
wages. We have some beautiful
parks to spend the Sunday afternoon
in. We have one public library.
Puyallup is the site Of the State Ma
sonic home, one Of the largest and
mot beautiful STRUCTURES es ils Kind

he is probably as efficient an as well
posted in the breeding of hogs as any
member of the association.

FEAR FEATHER FRAME-UP;
AUDUBON AGENTSAGAINST
WEBB AMENDMENT.
Would Bore Hole in Tariff Plumage
Ban---New Law Saving Many
Mother Egrets.

| New York, Jan. l2.-Scenting &
scheme to bore loophole in the law
by which Uncle Sam has just beer
enabled to protect wild bird life by
prohibiting importation of aigrettes
and other plumage, officers Of the
National Association of Audubon So
cieties today issued from their head
quarters in this city call to fight the
Webb bill, recently introduced in
Congress, which they declare will
serve the interests of the profession
al bird butchers of the millinery mar
ket. BY amending the tariff law to
admit plumage held here before its
enactment and taken abroad by resi-
dents of this country, this measure is
sure to open to the feather hunters
an easy way to defy the federal ban
which the people of all the country
demanded of congress last year, it is
asserted. Millions of mother egrets
and other wild birds are being saved
from butchery for their nuptial plumes
as a result of the successful opera
ton of the new law, it is shown bv
the Audubon agents, who have watch
ed the millinery market and believe
the proposed amendment would rem
der its further enforcement farce.
That scores Of scouts for the great
feather interest could be dispatched
abroad with bundles of aigrettes that
might be swelled by thousands more
on the return trip, is pointed out by
the men who know that the milliners
are secretly rejoiced over the quiet
of the Webb bill. Though
this proposed 'loophole' legislation
provides admitting such plumes Cup
on their idenity being established UNI
der appropriate rules and regulations
to be prescribed by the Secretary of
the Treasury, any adequate identi-
fication of a feather is pronounced
absurd and impossible by ornitho-
ogists who have just been consulted
lere. With the customs men help
ess to prevent it, the Webb amend
nent would legitimatize wholesale
of plumage that would
oon restore their old market to the
men who massacre the birds of the
whole globe to supply the costly mil
inery plumes, it is believed. II

Charters Great Bred Sow Offer


Charters Great Bred Sow Offer
W. H. Charters, Dr., proprietor Of
the Charter Oak Stock Farm, one Of
the biggest Poland China breeding
establishments in the country, has
bred and is breeding great number
OF immune for life sows which will
be offered for sale at private treaty
and in his bred sow sale on February
Is. The Charters herd numbers up
ward of 800 head and not only in
quantity but in quality does this herd
rank with the best of them anywhere.
White Sox Chief $3.50, one of the
Best A Wonder bears in service and
Long Price, son of Big Tom and
Guys Price I'd are the two main herd
boars and their blood is strongly rep
resented in the sows which are being
offered for sale. Mr.. Charters was
one of the first to immunize his herd,
using the double treatment, and the
entire collection of boars and sows,
young and old are cholera immune
for life. The bred gifts now be-
ing offered at private sale are the big
prolific Polands that have made this
herd famous and to those who realize
that the hog business is going to be
one of the best paying propositions
during the next year or two will plan
accordingly and lay in a few of the
Charters kind. Open gifts and bears
ready for service later are being of.
fered now and at prices that will suit.
OF these pigs OF fall farrow pair and
trios not related are being offered,
which make mighty good buying
propositions. The greatest bred
sow sale in our history" is the way
Mr.. Charters characterizes the event
to be held at Butler, on February q.
and we suggest that it would be a
good idea to get your name in early
for a catalog as there will be a great
rush for these big immune sows bred
to such boars.-Missouri Ruralist.
