efficient and well qualified for the of.
fices which they held. The work of
Judge G. g. Wherry of Payette met
with general satisfaction and there was
no criticism of his awards. The asso-
citation feels very fortunate in having
secured his services as judge and can
heartily recommend him to any asso-
citation which desires the service of a
competent judge. He can be assured
of warm welcome from the poultry
fanciers of this place should he ever
visit Grangeville again.
Attendance Was Good.
Although not as many birds were
placed on exhibition as was expected
the showing was good and this did not
detract from the interested manifested
in the show and the building was
crowded with visitors on Saturday.
The show has had its effect in stimu-
lating interest in blooded poultry and
plans for next years show will be
made early and bigger and better
show can be expected next year.
Address by University Man.
Prem Moore, poultry husbandryman
of the University of Idaho, lectured on
the subject of poultry raising and how
to make the industr profitable to the
farmers Friday evening and his adj
dress was heard by large number of
people. Mr. Moore stated that the ex-
hibition of birds at the show was a
good showing for the community and
would be complimentary for any sec
ton. He has made poultry the subject
of his special study for more than ten
years, and has been experimenting to
find the correct misture of feeds that
will produce the greatest number of
eggs per hen in tht winter time, and
the results of these Investigations will
be available to every farmer and
poultryman in Idaho, Mr.. Moore stated
setting forth the best feeds p vroebyni
,as steps are being taken to send tc
every poultry raiser in idaho bulletins
setting forth the best feeds proven by
experiments and tests to produce g
greater number of eggs for the poultry
keeper. ~-''a $500.
Mr.. Moore brought it out very clear
ly that the U. of 7. was not producing
thoroughbred poultry for the purpose
of stocking the farmers. with full
bloods at soc each as stated by a poul
try journal in Idaho and he further
stated that only six cockerels were
shipped from the university aud tn,
cheapest one of those was sold TO
$3.50, and he further stated that full
blooded birds will cost just as mucl
purchased from the university as from
any other reliable dealer. in poultry
and perhaps a trifle more. AS an edu
cational feature the address was
splendid idea and added much to tn
good done by the exhibition.
r. q. Bailey Praises Show.
r. g. Bailey, the publisher of West
ern Poultry, a journal published il
Lewiston and devoted to that line
was one of the visitors at the show an,
professed himself well pleased stating
that the birds placed on exhibition
were if much higher class than eve
before shown at Grangeville show
He had some good words for tn
management and in his opinion tn
late date was the only feature whicl
prevented the show from being at it
best, and in view of this feature h
was nevertheless highly pleased an
agreeably surprised at the showin
made.

having been granted last Saturday by
the Judge of the District Court giving
County Prosecutor Hattabaugh autho-
rity for so doing. DIR. Rains of Lew

was locked and the woman refused TO
let him in. He then went around the
front and broke in the door. She stat
ed that she fired the shot because she
was afraid of him, claiming that he
had threatened her before.
She also claimed that she saw a
knife in Brooks hand when ne went
around the house. but he denied this.

Especial to the Guardian.)
Providence, R. l. At last the deci.
sion of the board of directors of the
Y. M. G.. A. has been handed down
and it resolved itself into very
concrete form which was set forth in
a resolution offered by the committee
on membership, which was as follows:
The Victory.
The Providence Journal published
the following report:
That no distinction because of race
or sect will be considered in receiving
applications for membership in the
Providence Young Mems Christian AS
the board of directors Of that institu-
ton at meeting held last evening.
This action was taken by the direc.
tors because of objections from some
persons to the admission of Colored
men to membership in the organiza-
ton and particularly in the many ad-
vantages offered by the new building.
AS soon as it became known that
objection had been offered the matter
was taken up by different colored
organizations and others interested
and the directors were urged to take
action. Following is a statement CIV
Ell out by the directors after last eve
ning's meeting:
The Note.
"rhe Providence Young Mems Chris
tlan Association for more than so
years has served the young men and
boys of our city in broad and liberal
spirit, making no distinction in re.
ceiving applications for membership
because Of race or sect. We believe
that the only test of eligibility must
continue to be as it always has been,
character and moral worth, and that
by such standards o. seAe-.4un VAC
