called at The Star-Mirror office to
say good word for the Huber

thresher of my own but as in favor
of farmers buying thes small ma
chimes which can be operated by eight
men and four teams to haul the
bundles from the field and will thresh
from 400 to 500 sacks a day. 1t
saves help and horse feed. Two OF
three farmers can go together and
get one of these machines and threah
their crop without hiring any help.
It solves the help and the feed prob
lem. We have no right to ppt % or
80 horses into a field and feed them
wheat worth 81 per bushel when the
world is short of wheat, but. that is
what we do with the big machines
and it takes 40 to SO bushels Of wheat
q day to feed these horses, counting
what is wasted. have big thresher

new MEXICO GETS
POULTRY MEETING
SOUTHERN STATES TO ENTER.
TAIN POULTRY INSTRUCTORS
OF PACIFIC COAST

! The next meeting of the instruct
ors and investigators of poultry for
the western slope of the United
States and Canada will be held in
/ New Mexico. The invitation Of Pro-
fessor Thompson, the government
man in charge of poultry production
and instruction and investigation in
that new state, to hold the next meet
ing there has been accepted.
The meeting will be an important
one from an educational standpoint,
if the invitations of other citizens
and communities are accepted. Seat
tie and Los Angeles have extended
special invitations to the Investigators
and instructors to visit them enroute,
and have planned to entertain the
delegates in way that will be both
pleasant and instructive.
In the vicinity of Seattle are some
of the most extensive and successful
poultry yards in the United States
and Seattle offers to take the dele
gates to visit these yards and to en-
terrain them without expense to them,
as long as they are in Seattle.
Los Angeles makes practically the
same offer, urging the delegates to
arrange their itinerary so they can
spend some time there and offers to
take them out to the great poultry
yards at Petualuma, the greatest
poultry district in the west, and show
them through the valleys and enter
tain them as guests.
The plan is to have the northern
delegates meet at Seattle and accept
Seattle's invitation; thence to go by
boat to Los Angeles and accept the
invitation Of that city and tie Peta-
luna chicken fanciers and then 20 to
New Mexico for the convention.
The Importance of the poultry in
lustry is being recognized now as it
lever was before. The fact that pouI-
ny products in the United States
'rought s725, 100000 last year and !
hat more than $35O,OOO, 900 worth of 4
'ouitry meat reached the markets of I
his nation for food purposes in addi- s
ion to the eggs sold and poultry and f
gigs consumed by the producers, Z
ives some idea of its magnitude. 7
'There is a bright future for the K
oultry industry" said Prem Moore, .
cad of the university poultry depart s
tent and president of the association, =
hich held such successful meeting l.
ere this week. But the methods r
Iust change. The war. is making
lis necessary. The on-producers
ust be disposed of and only profit
lie poultry kept. The high price of &C
ed makes this necessary more now -
an ever before. The farmers are
e class most interested in poultry.
may surprise them to know that
per cent of the poultry of the
nited States is produced on the
rms as "side issue,"s which re-
ives very little attention from the
rmers. Just little more care and
tention in the selection, breeding
d care of the fowls on the farm will
d much to the gross and net income

men, although $50 are directly en-

progress of the fire Unless rain
comes soon, there will be greater
destruction of timber in this section
than in 1910. The region directly
most seriously effected is in the vicin-
ity of Bungalow station on the head
of the North fork Of the Clearwater
between Trail creek and Isabella
creeks, about IS miles east of Oro-
fino.
An average of 40 men are being |
sent in daily by auto from Orofino,
but large numbers quit or are dis
charged because they cannot do the
work, one of the chief sources of I
being that of insufficient
food supply as facilities for getting
supplies to the front for time were
because of the lack of
pack horses, but row a string Of 200
lorses are on the job taking in sup
