FOUND POULTRY BUSINESS
PROFITABLE AT OROvilLE

In writing to the Gazette and in
closing a letter from NJ. o. Adams,
written from Los Angeles In which
Mr.. Adams refers to his success as an
Oroville poultryman, Frank M. Dali
am, ST., sends the following interest
ing comment which should be Of value
to residents of this district:
ut would be well for the residents
Of the valley. under the West Okano-
gan Irrigation district, and the coun-
try adjacent to ,harken to the advice
OF Mr.. Adams and 60 more extenss
iy into. the raising of poultry and
harvesting the by-product, eggs. d.
verslfication must be the solution Of
the problem of living and getting
ahead among the land owners of the
Oroville country, and there Is no use
longer lodging the fact. 1t Is difficult
to see how any section can prosper
from year to year dependant upon a
single product, as so many Of us have
noted In a period extending over
many years. No man is In better posi-
ton to speak from experience on this

subject than Mr.. Adams He came in
to the valley a number of years agO'
from Minneapolis, largely ignorant of
the agricultural game, and purchased
land under the project. His way was
rocky for some years. AT last he
branched out very extensively raising
chickens, or rather chicks, for the
market, and being gentleman en-
dowed with energy and more than or
binary intelligence he built up Il very
Furnishing business until he left the
country for California, where, am
pleased to say he was successful In
entering a line of business that has
proved to be very lucrative. But what
he accomplished In the poultry game
can be accomplished by others and
could be so carried on that the farm
ers of the Oroville district could In
time profit very materially from such
an undertaking.
Then the egg production in con
junction with the poultry raising
could be made very important item
down in this part of the state, at
Winlock the egg industry has become
an immense business. A cooperative
organization has been formed with a
manager who looks after marketing
the eggs, and this modest side line to
the farm is bringing many dollars to
those so engaged. Eggs are shipped
out by the car load. The quality Is
such as to always command ready
market, and when the market is once
established there Is nothing to it only
to secure sufficient of the goods to
meet the demand. OF course those en-
gagged in furnishing the eggs 60 at the
business on scientific principles,
which includes the best of stock, mod
ern housing and the best of sanitary
conditions for the chickens. Taking
climate into consideration it seems to
me all the advantage of chicken rails
Ing for eggs would be in favor of the
dry belt of the Okanogan valley
Mr.. Adams is now in Los Angeles
and is with the Unit System of Heat
ing and Manufacturing company. He
re pOrts that his business and al other
lives in connect. n with building are
rushing there.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES.

Perhaps no more appropriate Christ
mas gift could be made by resident
OF this district to an eastern friend
than box of Oroville apples. 1t has
been pointed out that if every resi-
dent of this apple growing district
would send box of apples to some
friend in the east as Christmas
gift, it would dispose of 10000 boxes
Of fruit and would have untold value
in. stimulating the consumption of ap-
pies by reason of the fact that the re-
cipients of the apples would probably
share them with their friends which
would result in others buying them
for their own use.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR
WHEAT BELT PROMISED.

Though the price of wheat has
been and still is unsatisfactory, care
full and helpful banking methods, de-
termlned efforts on the part Of farm
~ers and thorough cooperation among
business men have brought about
remarkable improvement in business
conditions throughout the wheat belt,
Supervisor of Banking J. P. Duke
says. In the face of the serious low
price handicap, farmers have reduced
their indebtedness and the banks have
put themselves in a position to meet
the problem of any reduction In de-
pOslts that would naturally follow or
continue through low-price crop per-
iod. There has been general
strengthening Of financial position
and though there is nothing snowy
about the situation which would at
tract general attention, the fact is,
Supervisor Duke declares, that the
farming districts are In much better
shape now than they were at the end
of the previous crop year.
In meeting the situation Supervisor
Duke gives great deal of credit to
the co-Operation of outside business
and financial interests, more particu-
larly those of Spokane, but the prln-
cipal tribute he pay is to the farmers
themselves and to the stockholders
and officers of the banking institu-
lions in the wheat bell.
Something that tends to greatly
strengthen Supervisor Dukes analysis
Is a recent declarati m on the part OF
high banking authority that Wash
ington's state banking system now is
on q higher plane than that OF any
other state in the Union with the pos
sible exception of New York.
Supervisor Duke sees bright
promise for the future of grain grow
ers in this state, always assuming
that fair price can be had for theil
crop. He says that climatically, con
ditions this fall have been ideal FOL
preparing tor the coming season
crop; that the farmers hav lone
far greater percentage OF their owl
work. have gotten land ready ant
have seeded that portion which vii
take fall wheat and that they ca
look forward with reasonable e1
pectatiOn to a big crop next year. A
