A. G. Fry & Co. are concern which
merit the good will of the public be-
cause 1t furnishes great part of the
country communicable farmer-witfl
a satisfactory market for their produce
In this way the firm has been illstru-
mental in placing poultry raising on n
high plane. They serve as commission
merchants and brokers in purchasing,
wholesale, coop lots of poultry and
eggs, as well as veal, Belgian Hare, calf
and COW hides.
The management realizes the i'm
portance Of holding the good will of
the farmer. To accomplish this they
spare no pains to serve them. They
pay the highest prices for poultry,
eggs, and other produce consistent
with the daily market and frequently
quote the farmer higher than compc-
ttitive firms in order to secure the best
the market affords.
The production of poultry is one Of
the fastest growing industries in King
County, and has much to offer pros
pective poultry growers, because of
cheap land values, ideal living cond!-
lions, climate, good schools, and a good
market for poultry products.
Due to the broad-minded lnerchan-
dising policies Of A. G. Fry g. Co., they
have assisted the farmer in making
poultry raising into more than by
products. Many farmers, who, prior
to the establishment of this concern,
used their poultry merely as a sideline.
today make this their main line. This
movement has done much to increase
the prosperity Of the agricultural cias-
SEES in this community. and the farmers
have been quick to appreciate the adj
vantages given them
The firm is in position at all times
to handle any quantity of poultry and
produce and to find an immediate out
let for any surplus through their wide
distributing facilities.

W. s. c. PROFESSOR DECLARES
CHARACTER OF AUTHORS
/, NOT TO BE CONSIDERED

f
That many readers of literature to-
day have deserted the gardens for the
barnyards and have left the dining
halls to prowl among the garbage
cans, is the contention Of DR.. G, A.
Langworthy. associate professor Of
English at the State College of Wash
ington.
In recent talk on 1.-The Book and
the Man, DR.. Langworthy points out
that toe often readers who cannot
quote line Of Shelly can tell all sorts
Of facts and pseudo-facts about his
relations with Byron, Elizabeth Hit
chener and Jane Williams, while read
ers to whom Chi!de Harold's Pilgrim
age and Don Juan are unknown
quantities are crammed with the de-
tails of his Venetian debauches and
can cite by the yard the reasons for his
rupture with Ann Milbank or his UNI
sisterly relations with Augusta Leigh.
1.-THE result Of all this scandal
mongering in authors lives, so fire.
quently combined with dense ignor-
ance Of their writings is likely to lead
to avoidance of great books because
Of puritanical objections to the auth
ors' lives. The followers of this
fallacy reason thus: Byron was a
naughty man; naughty men do naugh-
ty things; therefore the poems Of
Byron are all corrupt and indecent.
If a teacher gently demures and points
out that such poem as "she Walks
In Beauty is not merely beautiful but
redolent with the spirit of hushed awe
in its appreciation Of chaste woman
hood, he is told that the poem can't
be that kind because Byron was not
that kind of man. NONSENSE You
might Just as well reason that the lily
is not delicately beautiful flower be-
cause the same stream may contain
the mud turtle or the crocodile. One
might as well refuse to go to church
on the grounds that some carpenter
may have INDUCED in cuss words while
mailing on the altar.
I'm fact the only part of writer's
| life that is of much Importance for the
Intelligent reader, is that part which
has gone into the making of his books.
Other areas of his life are of little
significance. We Go not ask the
locomotive engineer whether he eats
his beefsteak rare or we'll done, or how
many times his aunts second cousin
may have been divorced. We are con-
