aboard the Mayflower. "Now listen"
said the Brahmen," My ancestors were
the favorite and favored chickens of
the gods. We belonged originally to
the highest and sacredotal caste
among the Hindous. So, you see
really came from the celestial sphere.
Did you ever hear of the avatars of
Hirdof. theology? If not, you birds
hao better look it up for who knows
but that l am the original chicken in
the world, reincarnate."
"This discussion is getting too
deep for me,' remarked White Or
phington. "This unabridged diction-
airy doesn't even mention my name so
our family must necessarily have orig
mated in far antiquity" "Where is
that country?" asked Buff Cochin.
II think that the trouble is that Noah
Webster couldn't spell your name or
else classed you as buzzard. Now
our family came from Cochin, China,
and let me remark that many Of the
eggs that are sold here in the stores
as fresh ranch eggs are really eggs
that wre laid by my cousins across the
briny blue and shipped over here
nicely submerged in water glass;"
"How about you, you little bundle Of
conceit" a Barred Plymouth Rock
maiden lady said to modest and de-
mure little Chinese pheasant hen, who
sat manicuring her nails apparently
uninterested in the momentuous ques-
ton under discussion.
"Well, my high-hatting gabby

Gus B. FOltz Wins 3rd
Prize in the Field
and Stream Contest

Mr.. Gus B. Foltz of this city has
received letter from the Field and
Stream magazine, announcing that he
is the winner of the third prize in the
brook trout class of their 1925 Prize
Fishing Contest. The winners Of the
first and second prizes will be an
nounced in the March issue of the
magazine, but Mr.. Foltz was not ad-
vised whom they are.
The third prize consists Of one Sc
lection of Lures, made by E. H. Peck
inpaugh Co.; six Callmac Trout Bugs
SIX South Bend Feath-Orano Minnows
1trout size); two Stubby' Rods and
Reels made by the American Display
CO., and One Single Action Reel made
by Winchester Repeating Arms Co.,
all of which has value of SGT.
Mr.. Foltz must comply with the
conditions of the contest by writing u
short story, telling of his experience in
landing the fish. His story, with those
of the other prize winners, accompan-
led by photographs, will doubtless APP
pear in the March issue.
The prize-winning trout caught by
Mr.. Foltz came ont of Island Lake,
near Camp Sawtopfh, the same lake in
which the trout was caught which won
first prize in the 1924 contest, landed
by Prof. G. R. Schmidt of this city.
The second largest fish caught that
year was one landed by an easternen
while guest at Camp Sawtooth.
While this locality is disappointea
in mot landing the first prize, when it
is considered that the contest is ma
tion-wide and that many prize-win-
ming trout have already come out of
the Beartooth country, it establishes
beyond any doubt that this section Of
the country is truly the fisherman's
paradise of America.

ing attention of visitors are two pair

w. J. Hay Of this city. Mr. Hay also
has couple of guinea hens on display.
Among the many exhibits is a Dark
Beaver, exhibited by the Beartooth

PEA FACTORY WILL
BEBUILT in MARCH
NEAR OLD BREWERY

A pea factory, with capacity of
1000 cases daily, or 100000 cans of
peas, will commence its operations in
the early summer months. Actual
building will commence sometime in
March, or earlier if the weather is
favorable and the location as now de-
cided upon will be north of the brew
cry, which is at the northern end of
town.
Mr.. Nj. H. Mann, who comes to our
city from Utah, and who will manage
the factory, states that the cost of
the building and packing labor will
necessitate an output of $4,000 for
the first year. He believes that with
the excellent qaulity of peas grown in
this section, and the equipment of the
cannery which will be the newest and
best there is on the market, that there
is every reason to expect the turning
out of an extra fancy product
The first part of this week Mr..
Mann began the contracting of 500
acres of peas, which will mean that
the factory will turn out between fifty
and seventy-fve thousand cases the
first year.
The raising of high-grade peas has
brought Carbon county merited
amount of fame in agricultural pur-
suits, and now that there will be avail
able to the farmers factory for the
canning of their product, they will be
assured of steady market and the
factory in addition will furnish en-
ployment for a large number Of peo-
pie in the community.

CARBON co. POULTRY
SHOW HUGE SUCCESS
Largest of its Kind Ever Held in This
City. Show Rooms Crowded With
Interested Visitors. Exhibits Rep
resent Every Kind of Poultry Rails
! ed in Carbon County and Surround
ing Counties.

The Third Annual Winter Show
under the auspices and direction Of
the Carbon County Poultry Associa-
ton opened yesterday morning and
will close tomorrow evening with a
banquet at the Methodist Church. The
exhibition is being held in the spacious
Meter Building at "a North Broad
way and the members Of the commit
tee in charge are being assisted by
John Sim, president and 0. ]. Salo,
secretary of the association and no
effort is being spared in making Wis
itors welcome and in giving exhibitors
the best attention and accommodation
possible. ~.
The exhibits one and all are of a
high order, every class and kind of
poultry raised in this section of the
state is well represented and it is
probable that the largest and best ex-
hibits of turkeys and barred Plymouth
Rock Chickens ever seen in the state
are to be seen today at the Meter
building.
Jas. Rennie of Sheridan, Wyoming
is acting as judge and his task OF
choosing the winners of The various
classes of poultry is indeed a difficult
one, and to a News reporter he eE-
pressed himself as being agreeaBy
surprised at the splendid progress be
ing made by the poultry raisers Of
this county in raising the class Of
their poultry to such high standard
as this show proves them to be. HI
will finish his task of awarding prizes
early tomorrow afternoon and will be
in attendance at the banquet tomor
row evening and deliver "a short ad
dress that will be of interest, not only
to poultry raisers but to the public
generally.
O. J. Salo, secretary of the associa-
ton, expressed satisfaction today at
the interest that is being taken by the
people Of the city in what he consid-
cred as an exhibition that is of vital
interest to every resident of the coun-
ty and John Sim, the president OF the
association, said it was his candid
belief that the 1926 show now being
held is proving to be not only an In
SEPARATION to the people to raise pure
bred poultry, but revelation to them
as well that such marked progress
could be made in that line during the
three years that attention has been
given to improving the stock and in
selecting only the best poultry to be
raised in this part of the country.
The banquet to be held in the din
ing parlors of the M. E. Church tomor-
row evening promises to be well at
tended and assurance is given by the
committee and those in charge that
the addresses to be delivered there
during the evening will be, not only
very interesting but instructive as
we'll and it is to be hoped that large
crowd especially of.farmers will be IN
attendance to hear them.
Specimens of pure bred poultry
are on exhibition from practically
every town in the county as we'll as
from Billings, Hardin, Columbus,
Huntley, Forsyth, Laurel and Twin
Bridges, Montana.
