RICHLAND FARMERS FIND
TURKEYS A PAYING CROP
O. HI. Luell06f Has Fine Flock of $50
Birds Ready for the Thanks
giving Market

O. H. Luelloff, one Of the most sue
cessful farmers in the Richland dis
trict has ready for market $50 of the
finest turkeys ever raised in this part
of the country. Mr.. Luelloff was un-
usually successful last year with his
turkey venture and for that reason
went in even deeper this year with
the result that he has made a repu-
tation for himself of raising the very
best turkeys possible. He raises all
his own feed; hence his profits are
high and at the present time he has a
standing offer from tho Davenport
Hotel, in Spokane, of % and % per
pound for all his birds. This is a
little better than he made last year
when he disposed of his entire flock
to the Walla Walla Market. Mr..
iloff is of the opinion that turkeys
are one of the best money makers
that can be raised in the Columbia
river valley provided they have range
enough and the farmer can raise the
greater part of his feed. Mrs. B. s.
Wadsworth and Mrs. William Young
also have nice small flocks Of tur-
keys ready for market from which
the ladies will realize a nice little
sum of pin money.

Practically everyone in the neigh
,borhood of Richland as we'll as in
town has been struck lately by the
Grading bug" 1t seems to be the
latest style to be dissatisfied 18th
whatever you have in the way of
real estate and to try to get something
else in some other place, no matter
whether you have seen your new pos
session or not. Just trade and do it
now seems to be the watchword
hereabouts and as a result David p.
McIninish, who arrived in town with
his wife and daughter from Colorado
last week, has been traded out Of so
much of his land that he is now try
ing to figure just where he has a
piece big enough to make home for
himself and family. However, Mr..
McIninish seems to think Richland
is a mighty good place to locate in
and rather of the opinion that he will
remain here indefinitely.
