not bother the berries.
Such duty as above recommended
would be of great benefit to the
poultry industry of the state of Wash
ington, and at the same time shut out
a product that is raised under insan-
itary conditions, which is claimed
is against the health of those consum-
ing the Chinese and Japanese poul-
try products.
So far very little poultry has been
shipped into Washington, but as cold
storage gets cheaper on the many
steamers plying between the Orient
and these ports there is no doubt but
what, in time. we will have to meet
the competition of all kinds of cold
storage poultry. In my opinion, a
duty of Is cents per pound ON dressed
fowls would give us the needed pro-
lection.
