WHITE COCHIN STARTED RAISING FINE POULTRY
1 Mm
?. By Louis Paul Graham.
l. This la the white variety of the
.famous Cochin fowl which is given
. fcredlt by a noted English writer as
.:the breed which stirred up and
; boomed the rearing and exhibiting:
of fancy poultry.
, . Although variously called Shanghais
-"and Cochin Chinas in their early
AJays, the breed came from Shanghai,
."China, and was first introduced into
"England from a sailing vessel, re-
"turnlng from that port about 1845.
When first Introduced the Shanghai
,".waa generally of red color. Skilful
fanciers developed the Buff, Part
' ridge, White and Black varieties, and
,ef these the White Cochin is the sub-
"ject of our sketch.
Their chief utility qualities are
based on their production of large
'.brown eggs in winter. They are also
'highly esteemed for large roasting
i'fowls and are bred pure and crossed
la certain localities for this purpose.
-College Hens Are
') Btill in the Lead
;' O. A. C. White Leghorns first, Qre
gons second and O. A. OBarred Rocks
fourth, is the report of the Panama
Fadflo exposition egg laying contest
for August 1. This is the same rank
that the three college pens held at the
s time of the July report, but the lead
ers have increased their lead from 120
to 173, while the Rocks have cut down
the lead of their nearest competitors
. from 36 to 9. These are the ranks
; of the three college pens among all
breeds for the entire , term of contest
to date. Speaking of this phenominal
record the official report of the con
. test says: "The pen of White Leg-
feorns from the Oregon College of Ag-
riculture, also a pen of Barred Bocks
and one produced by a cross between
Leghorns and Plymouth Rocks, are
: three of the highest pens in the egg
laying contest. They have all been
bred according to the methods used
',iy' Professor James Dryden at the
Oregon Agricultural college. He has
learned a great deal about breeding
for egg production as the result of
Jits many years of experimental work
at the Oregon Agricultural college,
and Is to deliver an illustrated address
.during the week of the Panama-Pacific
Poultry show on the selection of
-layers and the result of his experi
ments at the Oregon station." The
crossbred hens still lead In Individual
- term contest, and the first six places
re all held by hens from Oregon, a
Barred Rock of F. M. Sherman of Leb-
" anon being tied for third place with
a record of 153 eggs, the two leaders,
O. A. C. crosses, having a record of
' 156 each.
"Water Your Hens
If You Want Eggs
- In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside a successful poultryman gives
the following advice:
. Tf you do not pay attention to the
water your hens have, so that they
have all they want of it before them
.all the time, you will not get so many
' eggs. You may not see any difference
the very next day, but in a day or two
the yield will fall off, and stay off for
several days. Just one day's lack of
"water will do that.
" "Tou have got to keep the hen busy.
The piece of corn we plant near the
henhouses seems Just to fill the bill,
i The hens can dig in the earth, pick up
bugs and bits of gravel, and be shel
tered while doing their work.
"The more you call them the more
scared they are. If you Just go along
- quietly they won't notice you.
"New men, new ways, new methods,
are disturbing factors. All changes
need to be gradually Introduced. All
frights are followed by a dropping off
of eggs."
The Fat Hen.
From National Stockman and Farmer.
I would like to dispel 'the mistaken
,Jdea so many people have that a fat
: hen cannot be a good layer and is not
, -A good layer. The truth is a hen In
. any. other condition but reasonably
v fat Is not and cannot be laying.
. Surplus Stock.
From the American Poultry Advocate.
Tou should dispose of all surplus
stock as early as possible to make
iroom for your growing chicks, giving
them every opportunity to develop and
Jmature early.

The White Cochin is a handsome
fowl, large and round, with heavily
feathered legs and feet, long soft
curling feathers in all sections. Plum
age should be pure white In all sec
tions. The hens get broody, sit, hatch and
rear chicks, making excellent moth
ers. The chicks grow rapidly and
feather slowly, attaining considera
ble size before they are fully feath
ered. The pullets reach laying ma
turity in from six to eght months,
but neither sex attains full size until
a year old. At that time females
weigh from 8 to 10 pounds, males
10 to 12 pounds and often more.
These fowls are poor foragers and
are hardly suited for farm flocks,
but the small breeder can obtain
plenty of enjoyment and considerable
profit from the sale of eggs, roasting
fowls and hatching eggs, if he has
exhibited and won a few prizes on
his stock.
Farmers Beginning
To Favor Poultry
Time was when the man of the
place considered carrying a basket of
eggs to market beneath his dignity,
says a writer in Farm and Ranch.
That was a bit of business for the
women and children, and since they
went to town very irregularly few
farms had an established trade in
eggs. The result was small thought
given to methods of handling and
marketing eggs, with low prices gen
erally for a consequence.
Men are getting somewhat over the
old Idea, and more of them are look
ing with favor on carrying eggs, chick
ens and butter to the market. In some
communities some men are beginning
to consider egg production not a bad
side line for the farm after all and
are offering every necessary facility
for marketing eggs regularly. The
work of caring for the hens and gath
ering the eggs and preparing them
for market is still the work of- the
women and children, but the men are
taking a lively interest in it now and
are doing a little more than merely
giving advice.
In the southwest the movement to
produce eggs for the market is well
under way. In many communities the
egg export business is already assum
ing some proportions. In a few of
the latter instances concerted activity
looking to the production of choice
eggs and securing choice prices is
meeting with merited sudceas.
Uniformity Boosts Prices.
Uniformity in product always com
mands a better price for any com
modity and also creates a demand for
It. It Is true of eggs. Infertile eggs
keep better than fertile eggs. The
community that guarantees uniformly
Infertile eggs, therefore, and ships
eggs of Uniform size, shape, color and
cleanliness, is the community that la
getting egg prices that make the in
dustry grow.
Concerted activity in producing and
marketing eggs may require organiza
tion or not, according to local condi
tions. The essentiala are that those in
terested know how to produce choice
eggs and how to prepare them for mar
ket, matters requiring thoughtful at
tention largely. If the eggs are to be
shipped out of the community then a
leader, a sales agent, or an honest,
active local dealer, la necessary for
best results.
If any community of farmers will
produce all the eggs the community
can use and as many more for the
SSw.t,-a?d market them right, they
will find It so profitably worth while
as to keep on Increasing the business.
Poultrymen to Meet
At Interstate Fair
The poultrymen and all others inter
ested in the poultry industry in the
Inland empire will hold a meeting in
the convention tent at the Spokane
Interstate fair grounds at 10 a. m on
Wednesday, September 15. Several
practical and interesting lectures will
be given by the best authorities in the
northwest, and D. K. Hale, the famous
Chicago expert, who will judge the
poultry show, has consented to make
an extended address.
TheBlne in Breeding.
From the Northwest Poultry Journal
The reason why the blue is so hard
to breed Ts because it is not a primary
color, and a reversion is more easily
thrown back to the black and white
than from other colors.

Keeping Chickens
On a Small Scale
Poultry can be kept successfully on
a small amount of land, for this rea
son, it is particularly adapted to the
suburbs of large cities and to small
towns. The waste products of the
kitchen .and the table may be used to
advantage and there is always a mar
ket for eggs and dressed poultry or,
If used at home, the consumer is cer
tain that he has a strictly fresh
product.
When many birds are kepjt, in a
small space, however, the ground is
likely to become foul. It is, therefore,
advisable to divide the lot and bow
part of it with some quick growing
grain such as oats, wheat or rye. In
this way the yards may be rotated
every three or four weeks during the
growing season, the hens being turned
on the growing grain when it is a few
inches high, A good combination i3
oats and wheat in equal parts, sowing
six or seven bushels to the acre (43,
660 square feetL
For the poultry house, about four
square feet of floor space per bird
sBould be allowed for the general pur
pose breeds. The other essentials are
fresh air, dryness and 'sunlight.
Birds that are too fat will lay few
eggs. It is, therefore, advisable to
make them work for most of their feed
by scratching in the litter, of which
there should be about four inches on
the floor. A good feed mixture Is a
scratch ration composed of equal parts
of corn, wheat and oats and a mash of
two parts cornmeal and one part each
of bran, middlings and cornmeal, feed
ing about equal quantities of the
scratch ration and of mash. This
should be scattered in the litter morn
ing and noon, allowing a small hand
ful for every three hens. At night
the birds should be given all they can
eat of it in a V-shaped trough. In
tfce winter time, some green feed
should be given at noon cabbage or
mangel-wurzels are good. If the birds
do not eat all the grain that la scat
tered In the litter, reduce the quan
tity. Grit, oyster shells and water
should be available for the birds at
all times.
Poor Birds Should
Be Culled Out Now
Every bird that does not give prom
ise of paying its bills through the win
ter (should be culled out- Know how
many birds your houses will hold, and
the number of pullets you wish to keep
over, then cull. A big feed bill for
fowls which will sicken and die if kept
In crowded quarters is poor policy. The
successful poultryman must flret be a
good business man. Because some
birds are of slower growth than others,
we do not advise' immediate culling
of all the fowls that are undersized.
The stocky type of bird, especially,
will seem for a while to stand still,
and the lanky bird appear much larg
er; but put them on scales, and the
stocky bird may surprise you by out
weighing the larger bird. This tsrpe of
male bird is very desirable for grow
ing early maturing broilers; birds of
the stocky build are plump all the
time. But we would mark birds that
are apparently backward if they are
otherwise good, and give them a chance
to make good.
The birds with off-colored eyes, very
bad combs, crooked backs, wry talis,
long, shaky heads, knock knees, and
feathers or down on smooth shanked
Varieties, should be marketed first. It
will pay most farmers to have a fat
tening coop and keep half a dozen or
more birds cooped there all the time
for emergency use.
About this time of the yeafX we used
to be greatly interrupted by passers
by who, noting the ranging chickens,
came to purchase. When the chicks
are cooped, it does not take long to
weigh them up and make the sale. The
average butclver will complain of hens
that weigh seven or eigtit pounds,, and
will probably dock the price- if he
takes them; but people who come to
the country for their chickens are will
ing to take these fat hens, the best of
roasters.
When farmers cull gradually, there
will not be the drop In prices in No
vember, when the first cold snap calls
for more room in the henhouse.
Poultry Hints.
It will cost not l-ss than 75 cents
to raise a baby Brahma chick up to
the point of laying. Leghorn chicks
could be raised for about 50 cents, as
they mature much earlier In life.
The hen mite or red spider feeds
upon the poor hens at night while they
are on the roost and saps their life to
such an extent the egg yield is largely
reduced.
If the egg shells are fed to poultry
care should always be taken to crush
them thoroughly before feeding.
See that pans of water are placed
so that birds can get to them easily
during hot days. They enjoy the water
and you will enjoy the birds.
Provide Proper Roosts.
Do not give the growing chicks any
opportunity to roost upon the cross
studdings. If such are used in the
construction of t-he house cover them
with a slanting piece of wood which
makes it almost impossible for them to
perch on. The roosts should also not
be round, as such roosts are apt to
cause crooked breast bones. Always
use flat, roosts about three inches wide
and of sufficient capacity to accom
modate the number of chicks comfort
ably, allowing plenty of room for them
to grow.
A Dry Mash for Fowls.
A recommended drymash is made
as follows: .
Wheat bran, 2 parts.
Wheat middlings, 1 part.
Cornmeal, 1 part.
Ground oats, 1 part.
Beef scraps, 1 part.
To this can be added in bulk, cut
clover hay according to the way the
fowls eat it. The parts of the rest of
the formula is toy weight.
The Colony Plan.
The colony plan of keeping' poultry
is best suited for the farmers and
those who have plenty of land at their
disposal. It makes it possible to keep
several hundred hens on the ordinary
farm without the expense of yarding
them, and still have them away from
the home buildings. It's the farmer'a
way.
When to Wash Chickens.
From Wallace's Farmer.
A bird will look better the day after
it is washed than before, but It should
be washed long enough before a show
to be thoroughly dried and cooled down
by removing to a cooler room.
Feeding the Chicks.
It is certainly less trouble not to
mix wet mashes or cook, feed for small
chicks, and they will do as well on
dry,, uncooked feed. Cooked or wet
feeding places, more sour stuff lying
around to start digestive troubles; so
why take the ' trouble to do a lot of
unnecessary work?
TEACHER QUITS N. L A.
BECAUSE SHE WASN'T
ELECTED PRESIDENT
Miss Grace Strachan of New
York Shows Anger Because
. of Defeat in Convention.
Oakland, Cal., Aug. 21. (IT. P.)
Excitement was still high today among
the teachers attending the convention
of the National Education asso
ciation over the action of Miss Grace
Strachan, defeated candidate for presi
dent of the organization in resigning
because the organization had became
"lacking in toleration of the things
sacred to the Individual."
Desert Oakland.
What will be the effect of her resig
nation upon the organization's mem
bership could not be predicted. She
and the New "Slork teachers who have
been backing her campaign for the
presidency, left Oakland today and
took rooms in a San Francisco hotel.
That Miss Strachan's criticism of N.
E. A. methods will call forth replies
from some of the heads of the organi
zation is not doubted.
Miss Strachan is said to be especial
ly resentful toward Mrs. Ella Flagg
Young, of Chicago, who, she asserts.
Instigated the campaign against her.
There were no sessions of the vari
ous departments of the N. E. A. today,
the teachers having gone to San Fran
cisco to celebrate N. E. A. day at the
Panama Pacific exposition.
Says Bomor Untrue,
Humors that she would lead a seces
sion of 2 8,000 teachers of the east and
south to form an educational associa
tion to rival the N. E. A., as a result of
her defeat for the presidency of the
latter organization, were heatedly de
nied by Miss Grace Strachan today.
"I have simply resigned," she said
today, "and that is all there is to it."
Miss, Strachan refused to say that she
had been the victim of a "frame-up."
Hunters Get Big Deer.
Forest Grove, Or., Aug. 21.- Among

Hood River Good
Gas Plant Site
Representative of Company Xooks Over
Field; City Would Solve Oarbage
Question.
Hood River, Or., Aug. 21. C. W.
Wyman, representlngthe American Gas
& Incineration company, spent several
days in Hood River looking over the
situation for the installation of a gas
plant. Mr. Wyman. states that Hood
River la an ideal city for the operation
of a plant on account of the fact that '
the plant canTbe built on the low lands j
of the river practically within the city ',
limits and the gas conveyed to the
users without the aid of pressure
pumps. Members of the city council
have been discussing the matter of a
location and are also anxious to
solve the garbage question. The" ap
ple pulp as a waste from the large
plant of the Hood R-iver Apple & Vine-j
gar company, amounting to hundreds j
of tons each year, has been deposited
on the beach of the Columbia river, and
pedestrians from the Washington sidd
of the river have front time to time
asked the city council for refief from ;
the noxious fumes of this deposit. It1
is expected that the company will ask j
the city council for a franchise at its I
next meeting. The company promises I
to dispose of all of the garbage free
of cost to the city. The garbage will
be converted into gas.

Thirty-five. Thousand Black
S potted and Rainbow Trout
Are Planted,
Seaside, Augv 21. Thirty-five thou
sand black spotted and rainbow trout
were liberated last night' in the tribu
taries of the Kecanicum, The special
fish car from the hatchery at Bonne
ville arrived here on the late train
and the fish iwere liberated before
daylight by members of the Seaside
Anglers club. Off icials in charge of
the car said that the Seaside liberation
was the most "prompt they had ever
experienced.
When Clare Godfrey, president of
the Seaside Anglers' club received word
that the fish car had been hooked on
to the late & P. & 8. train for Sea
side, he sent out a hurry call to mem
bers of the Club. -There was a wild
scramble to .obtain automobiles in
which to Tarry, the trout try to the
streams. All f the available machines
were pressed' into service and all of
the delivery and auto trucks belonging
to the merchants were commandeered.
The fry' were taken to the streams
that empty into the Necanleum and
turned loose. These streams had been
carefully selected by the club and as
soon as authority can be obtained
from , the Oregon Game and Kish as
sociation, they will be declared closed.
Another important action of the
club taken to prevent night fishing,
is that every member of the club has
been sworn in as a deputy game war
den, with authority to arrest any vio
lator of the game and fish laws.
