Permit me to thank my friends
for the support given me in the re-
cent election for circnit Judge, and TO
say to those who preferred Mr. Will

quarrel with you. l am defeated
for the reason that l did not get
more votes than my opponent got,

We're two busy, and too sanguine of

POULTRY SHOW ID BE 4 FEATURE OF
 INDUSTRIAL WEEK

One of the most educational as well as interesting features of Industrial Week vii be the poultry show, which has been described as a show within a show, although in a strict sense this is inaccurate. The show will be staged a saa independent attraction, and will be the eighth annual event of the Maricopa County Poultry as- sociation.
 With competition open to the world, many outside poultrymen are expect ed to exhibit, and all the way from 800 to 1000 individual entries are ex- pected.
 'The poultry industry has a great future in this section," declared W. F. Fetterly, president of the associ- ation, last night, and to impress this fact is one of the main reasons for putting on an exhibition at this time. Then, too, it gives every local poltry raiser an opportunity to compare his stock with that which is raised else where. This Is the object of opening competition to the world. If outsiders capture the prizes it merely shows that our poultrymen must get better birds.''
 The judges for the show have been selected They are Matt F. Luce, who is in cnarge of the United States government poultry station at Glen dale and former editor of the Cali fornia Poultry Journal, and Prof. R. B. Thompson, who has charge of the poultry department of the University of Arizona and Is rated one of the best poultry experts in the southwest.
 Five prizes in all will be awarded in each class Blue ribbons will des- ignate first prize, red second, yellow third, green fourth and white fifth. Purple will designate special prizes. Cash awards will go with the first three prizes in each class.
 In addition to the regular prizes, trophy cups will be awarded for su- premacy along various lines by the following named: Bear Drug store, Harley F.. Coldwater, secretary of the Fl Paso poultry show; Freeland Sun shine ranch, W F. Fetterly, Phoenix Seed and Feed company, Edgar M. LeBaron, Kiwanis club, Merchants and Manufacturers association of Phoenix, Mrs Dwight B. Heard. Rhode Island Red association of America, American Poultry associa- tion. A number of other special
 
 speciality clubs
 Full details concerning the classes and awards are given in the premium list and program which will be ready for distribution Monday. Copies may be obtained from Athur c. Freeland. secretary of the association his address being R. F. D. No. 6, Phoenix, Arg.
 Rhode Island Reds, Barred Rocks and White Legkorns will predomi- nate in point of numbers, 1t is be- lieved, as these varieties have long been favorites in this section. Other entries will include Orpingtons, Black Minorcas, Wyandottes. Rhode Island Whites, Anconas and Bantams. It is expected also to have number of entries of rabbits, turkeys, ducks, pigeons and cav1es
 A location for the show has not been decided upon, although the com mittee has seven or eight under con sideration It is desired to secure

WORK IF RELATING SANTA FE TRACKS
 NEARSCOMPL

Work of re-laying trackage on the Phoenix Ash Fork division of the Santa F'e coast lines will be com pleted within the next 30 days if the present rate of progress is continued, George Brown, city freight and pas senger agent for the railroad. an nounced yesterday. The work repre- sents an outlay of nearly $l,000,0O0 and is the biggest improvement ever undertaken on the division.
 New trackage has been laid over the entire division of 194 miles except strip of about IS miles just south of Nada siding, Brown said. Opera tions were started yesterday. he am nounced, on the last IS miles.
 Work has been interrupted because of lack of supplies, it was stated, but with the recent arrival of large shipment of steel it is believed that reconstruction of the road can be completed without further delay.
 e-laying of the track is progress ing at a rate of nearly mile day, Brown said. A newly invented track laying machine is being used with big success. he declared. In the recon struction work the old 56-pound rails are being replaced with S5pound rails.
 With the completion of the work the division roadbed will be one of the best on the coast lines, it was de- clared Main line engines will then be sent into Phoenix from the north, while other heavier equipment will also be utilized on the division, it was stated.
