TURKEY WESSON FllOM IDAHO
Five years ago fourteen energetic ahd farsightecl Idaho
farm women, defying the ridicule of their backward neigh
bors, formed a turkey marketing pool. Shipping the first
carload of their combined output during the Thanksgiving
season of; that year, they received a higher price than that
offered in the open market.
success, the womert shipped two and a' half carloads later
for the Christmas and New Year's trade1 and werd re
warded with the highest prices ever paid for turkeys In their
homo cbnimunily, This convinced other turkey raisers,' who
had at first scoffed at the organization idea, that it was the'
best thing for their own pockotbooks ahd they. began join
iiigi Each succeeding year saw an increased number of tur
keys marketed under a pooling agreement that brought top
prices until the total consignments in 1927 reached 75. car
loads, representing the combined product of 1800 growers,
whose returns aggregated over $750,000; This ill brief is the
eloquent story of cooperatioh brought to the turkey growers
of Douglas county by Mrs. C. G. Brink, manager of the Idaho
Turkey Growers' association. : The unbroken success of the
organization ,is due to unswerving loyaltyi careful grading of
fowls, economic production methods and convenient ship
piiig arrangements, Mrs. Brink points out. ' At little ex
, pense railway cars are moved from place to place during the
'shipping periods to receive their full capacity of turkeys,
supplies needed by the growers are bought in bulk for dis
tribution among all of tholri at minimum cost and a very
small deduction from the market-price of fowjs takes care of
all Overhead. - Each season fiiicte
before the organization bidding for its product. Last year
the, average price' paid for best grade turkeys in tilt! Idaho
pool exceeded that received by Douglas county growers from
three to four' cents a pound. Mrs. Brink remarks signifi
cantly that Pacific coast "markets -are no longer able to
handle the Northwest output,
established and that the Inrger the 'pool the strohger the as
surance of -profitable returns to ail. This may be construed
as it suggestion to Douglas county growers to lose no time
extending their own organizntIort,fcahd in supporting any
move lor statu and even mterstata. cooperation! It' is on
couraging to note that the industrial story brought here by
tne idano visitor has aroused
regarded as a sure sign that Douglas county growers Will
not fail to profit by the valuable information she has given
them, . ,
No wonder Herbert Hoover never got a "bite" in Ore

very.evon temper to iindnrtako such art important part in the

POEM FOR
By LOUIS AUJEIiT BANKS
: ; 1 " WORSHIP i i -;.:'
True worship is a thing of soul ; ,
Unlike an actor's playing role,
A man may sit as if at ease,
And ySt his soul be on its knees;
A man may kneel as if in prayer,
With e'er so sanctimonious air.
And yet his mind be far away
All taken up with worldly play.
True worship is a thing of heart,
But not a piece Of technic art;
It rises to a heavenly lure
Is not a work of literature.
'Tis childhood's cry for Father's love,
Appealing to the Heart above.
The man who prays is lifted high
Holds fellowship in yonder sky.
