NEW YORK POULTRY JOBBERS.

In 1900, says the Rural New Yorker, the ship
ments of live poultry to the New York market,
including express shipments, did not average 20
carloads per week. At this time all of the poultry
was shipped to the various commission men who
sold II to the various slaughter houses and butch
es Throughout the city. and prices were %nywhere
from eight to twelve cents per pound. for live
fowls. The use of patent cars, built especially for
shipping live poultry and the increased production
OF poultry throughout the country made a contin-
ued growth In the receipts. The health depart
ment, as early as 1896. began making stringent
regulations regarding the handling of live poultry,
restricting the points at which the poultry would
be held alive, awaiting slaughter. and the rules and
regulations have been changed from time to time
until at the present time there are about $50 places
designated at which live poultry can be held for
slaughter and slaughtered in Greater New York.
But recently the department has amended its rules
so that there will probably be a great increase In
the number of points at which slaughter houses
may be operated for the handling of poultry ar
irving In the market alive. In 1900 the receipts of
live poultry had grown to a weekly average of 40
carloads arriving by freight, and usually one TO
five cars by express. At about this time the re-
ceivers decided that they should have closer CO.
operation and formed what was known as the New
York Live Poultry Dealers Protective Associa-
ton. By 1905 they had a close working arrange
ment and had limited their sales entirely to a
party OF dealers known as "iobbers." They then
drew up a plan by which all the poultry was re-

A GREAT CREAMERY SUCCESS.

A co-operativ creamery began business at
Caldwell. Idaho, last October, The first months
business was highly satisfactory--more than meet
ing expectations-the on put having been 1000
pounds OF butter. The business has increased by
leaps and bounds every month since, until the
creamery is working n 24-hour shift, and the out
put Is now $4,000 pounds OF butter a month, an
eleven fold increase In six months. The creamery
is not a large one but II is large enough to show
what can be done through cooperation. There
will be other creameries started and in time Idaho
with more irrigated acres than any other state,
will keep the 81, 900. 900 at home which 1t now
sends abroad annually for dairy products.

JAPANESE EMPEROR ENTHRoNED
As He Bows Before Ancestral Goddess
Sun Breaks Through Clouds.

Kioto, Japan.--In this, the ancient
capital of Japan, Yoshihito was con-
secrated emperor on Wednesday, No
vember TO-
For days the weather had been wet
and gloomy. At the moment Yoshi-
hito bowed down before the ancestral
sun goddess, the rays of the sun fash
ed over the mountain dissipating the
clouds. According to legend, the sun
goddess in prehis ORIG ages emerged
from her rocky cave and filed the
whole universe with glory. The ap-
pearance of the sun is interpreted by
the people of Japan as good omen
Of az suspicious regn of Yoshihito.
and of the destiny of the empire.
The first part of the principal cere-
monies consisted of a ritual service
of ancestor worship, which struck
note Of religious mysticism. In the
afternoon Yoshihito was enthroned.
The morning ceremony was address
ed to the gods, it seemed, and the
other to the people.
The emperor issued an imperial re-
script, in which he declared he will
continue the work of his father, who
Conceived the great policy of open
ing the country to foreign inter
course" in the building up of the
empire and the strengthening Of

American soldiers.

men and that l have no immediate in
tention of quitting in my fight for the
liberty of my people.

NEUTRALS WORKING
ON PEACE PLAN
FORMULATE PROPOSALS
BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
Believed That the Administration Of
Foreign Policies of Nations at
War Would Welcome Action
of Neutral Agency.

Washington.-David Starr Jordan
chancellor of the Leland Stanford uni
versity and head of the International
Peace congress, recently held in San
Francisco, told President Wilson on
Friday that quasi-official meeting
of neutral nations probably will be
held some time before Christmas,
either at The Hague. Berne or Copen-
hagen, to attempt to bring about
peace in Europe.
Dr. Jordan conveyed to the presi-
dent a resolution from the peace con-
gress urging him to co operate With
ether ntutrals in calling such con-
ference.
In statement laid before the pres
ident by Dr. Jordan, it was declared
that as a result of recent missions to
the governments of the warning ma
tons it couo be stated that while
the nations at war were not willing
themselves to begin negotiations for
peace, there is nevertheless abund-
ant evidence that those charged with
the administration of the foreign pol
icies of these nations would welcome,
or at least not oppose, affirmative
action by neutral agency to bring
about a peace based on international
Justice"
DR.. Jordan said that while no Of
fetal information was available,
peace advocates had learned from un-
official sources in Holland, Sweden, |
Switzerland, Denmark and Spain that
hose countries would be CAD to take
part in any movement to further the
cause of peace
