Is Very Successful The association is very success ful in several remarkable ways. There Is no other concern in the country with so small a capital doing such a large business and that gets by with it with , an in creasing surplus. And the Ore gon net price of 32.56 net for eggs to the association members is higher than the Washington asso ciation price, which was last year 31.16. There is every indication of the continued growth of the Oregon association. The writer predicts an immense growth. Some Fine Things The management is trying to raise the average of nocks to 400. The advantage would be more fre quent shipments, and better (and fresher) eggs. It is the idea of the management to keep the spring price of eggs up and the fall price down. The idea is with very high prices for eggs consum ers will quit using them; will get out of the habit. In the long run, this is bad for the producers. During the first years of egg ex porting from Oregon, nearly all cars were routed to New Ybrk. They now go to Detroit, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and other big cities seme even to Florida, for the high class trade there. Oregon sends high class eggs to all markets. Last year one Detroit broker han dled 56 cars of Oregon association eggs. The Official Roster The office of the Pacific Coop erative Poultry Producers is at 361 East Washington street, Port land, and there is published by the association a monthly paper, "The Eggsaminer," keeping mem bers posted. The board of directors now con sists of the following poultrymen: District No. 1, comprising Clark, Lewis, Cowlitz, Klickitat, Skama nia, and Wahkiakum counties, all in Washington, M. E.

A Car a Day It is likely that a full car a day of eggs now roll out of Oregon to the eastern markets. If they are not going out that fast, they will soon be- and then two cars and on up. We are becoming a great poultry state, and the center of tltis enormous industry is going to be Salem, the trade center of the great Willamette valley. if you. have fur rabbits you may ruin their fur by bad' pens. . Proper feed is very essential. I found that green feed is very poor feed for rabbits, for though they like it, it will cause many diseases and will sometimes kill rabbits and, on the other hand, it does not fatten the rabbits nearly as much a$ grain rations. Feed them as muchliarley as is required with a bunch of alfalfa hay twice a day ("morning and night), and it will be all they need, although you should have water and salt be fore them constantly. When a doe has young ones, it is best to feed her all she can eat, plenty of water, and feed her bread soaked in milk, as of course the growth of the litter depends on her being well fed. Good stock Is necessary, for if you have poor stock you will have a very poor market. A- whole lot depends on good care, for if rabbits are neglected they will not do well and soon the raiser will wonder why his stock Is dying off. If carried on properly rabbit raising is a very interesting work and should be followed by more people, especially in the Willam ette valley, where there are great opportunities in the business.

DOZEN WILL KEEP FAMILY IN EGGS Editor Statesman: The field for a chicken raiser is certainly good in the Willamette valley. The climate is almost ideal for chickens. Of .course there are some things that "must be had to make a chicken ranch a success, even in the Willamette valley. The building for the chickens should face east. The yard should be slopins enough to allow for drainage, for a wet yard is not healthful for chickens. It is cot necessary for one to raise the chickens to maturity. A hatchery is Jus'." s profitable. 1 here are sovtral hatcheries in and near Salem. All are doing well. One o! the largest hatcheries on the Pacific coast is located near Salem. This "hatchery hatches twenty-five thousand chicks a week, and the owner can't fill all tbe orders. He sells chicks all ever, the coast. A dozen chickens in the back yard, fed by the scraps from the t;ble, will keep a medium family in eggs all winter. Deena Hart. 1192 Shipping St., Salem, Ore., March 1, 1327.

Keier School, age 14 .v;.. ;..,v ,.; l; 110:1 J (I'lTES'lll itesman: ; every boy some time raise rabbits, and I had r ambition; so 1 will tell ae of the (hings that I of - the - common mistakes 1st rabbit breeders make is i y think that green feed Is K to feed rabbits;; but that jfely wrong for rabbits j be Ted lfalfa or dorer hay. ? (preferably rolled , barley) V ery little jrreea feed.' It V 'har-rabbits will eat a va j'Jteeds, Ungate should be H for some of the things 1 4 will eaV are harmful. kglng feeds and apone' who violates this rule will have costly experience. This disposes of the common belief that a rab bit can be raised for little or noth ing, for they cost about the same as a chicken per pound, but a properly fed rabbit is preferable to any other meat in delicacy and flavor. While (here are many different varieties of rabbits, there are two general divisions: the food rab bit, which is used for its meat, and tbe fur bearing rabbit which is used for its fur. Of the former division there are many different kinds, a few of which are the New Zealand Ied. Flemish Giant and tbe Belgian hare. Of the latter di vision there are not so many, kinds but : the: Chinchilla, New Zealand Red,; Flemish Giant and the Si berian Giant are among the best. Many- small raobit keepers think it is cheaper to keep grade rabbits, but that is wrong, for the podigreed stock Is the best for any purpose, just as with any other slock. Most rabbit breeders believe that they should raise as many Utters of young rabbits a year as possible, but that is entirely a rufstake, for a doe should raise no more than four litters of young a year and that during the fall and winter and early spring months, end the balance ot the year she should rest: ' , , Some of the things that I con sider necessary for successful rul Mt raising are (1) good mating. U) proper pens, (3) good slock, (1) good care, (5) clean comlort- a b fe west boifcs. ' ' Good mating Is, Important pr you will soon ( run . down your stock. I , ' , Proper, .pens are essential, for many of the diseases that a rabbit acquires are du to foul pens, and Editor Statesman: The rabbit is a pet stock which is fast coming to the front for fur bearing as well as for its meat. The meat of a nice fat rabbit is as fine as that, of poultry. Rabbit raising i's light work, therefore it is suitable for chil dren to turn their energies into profit. The wild rabbit has always been an important source of food, ef-pecially during the cold part of the year, but the domesticated rabbits are fast taking their place. There are many breeds of rab bits, but there are four types which because of their large size and fur are raised as utility rab bits. Th?se arj the Chinchilla rabbits, the Eelgian hare, the New Zealand Red rabbits and the so calied Giants, including the sever al color varieties. The smaller breeds are kppt as fadey stock. Two does and a buck of breed ing age are enough to supply an average family with all the rabbit meat it would care to use. The buck should come from dif ferent source from the does. A good 10-pound doe can easily raise in a year 20 young. It takes very little space for their hutches, and half an hour of time a day, and some hay and refuse from orchard, garden and kitchen and a small amount of grain cover the cost of production. Fattening rabbits for meat may begin any time after. they are 10 weeks old and should continue three wepks, the animals being cenfined in small quarters to pre vent their getting too much exer cise. The greens in their feed should be decreased, while that Of grain should be increased. Fresh water should be given every morn ing. Salt should also be supplied, AIT dishes from which rabbits eat or drink , should , be cleaned and scalded frequently. ..., ; The period of gestation of the female rabbits is about 3 ff day The number of young in a litter Marios greatly; litters of 10 or 12 occur, but these "are too large for the doe to raise, Only six or i?3t tn of thq btist ot the yourig should be vared. ... . ;. . , , . . j Each breeding. doe should ;have a separate hutch; for herself a'nd young, and, the buck must also be kept by, himself ; . ft; ' t, ; The young are weaned when six ?$cks gld and the du. bred agiou A few days before the young are expected the hutch should be craned and plenty of soft hay or straw placed in it. ( The doe will make her own nest. She should have extra feeds of warm mash to induce a good' flow of mlllt. The diseases of rabbits are mainly due to improper feed or care. A few are contagious, but if taken care of properly they will not be troubled with disease. Rcy Boatwrigbt.

In the poultry of some certain breeds, but I think that each per son must find out for himself by cental experience, as he sees tt's not by j-:iven rules as sdme go by. As to the culling of the flock, you know those who have had years of experience, who are same of our best poultry raisers. They know by this time what a good laying hen needs to be like and Iiow she needs to be fed to make her produce the eggs. As we lojik our flock over for good layers we see that good lay ing hens have a lighter color of beak and legs, also a large bright comb. The laying hen also has a soft, pliable body fat while the non living hen's fat Is hard and firm. The skin is soft and not coarse ard rough, and the hen that moults laie in the season is the me that is usually fhe heavy lay er. Many poultry keepers make it a practice to cull the easy nioult ers, as they have found they are not good egg layers Also the feed has something to do with the time when a hen will moult. I believe that if a person tries very hard he or she can make money in hens. Hens for me" every time, for that extra pin money we girls are always wanting from Dad. But n one of us can have anything un less we put in our whole hearts, as they say, and it takes lots of patience and work. I like to read the Northwest Poultry Journal, because It is our heme paDor, and it is printed so a? to better our own home and peo ple and their needs. Dorothy Porter.

Salem, the continuous grow ing city of poultry and pet stock raising. 2. Did you realize that Salem is, and will be more and more, the center of poultry and pet stock raising? 3. Salem is fast becoming the center of poultry "and pet stock raising. 4. Every day and every way Salem is fast becoming the center ot poultry and pet stock raising. 5. To see is to know that Sa lem's poultry and pet stock is the highest grade of perfection. 6. Stop, listen and look at Sa lem's steady growth of pqultry and pet stock raising. 7. Oh, say, have you seen what we so proudly hall as Salem's poul try and pet stock raising? Elizabeth Waters. 1599 State St., Salem, Or., Feb. 2S, 1927. POULTRY ID PET STOCK: FULL RESUME Editor Statesman: The poultry industry is divided into many parts, and each classifi cation might be called a business unto itself, therefore the money making possibilities are not con fined in one channel, hut has many different angles, making It more profitable and , interesting than a great many things, for if one' does not like one part of the business he ,cn try apother. IJaby Chirks In my enumeration, I will begin with baby chicks, as f believe that to be the foundation of the poultry Industry. This. business is carried on In a way where the hatchery produces' thq chicks ai t one ( day old, and while ih'o cos( Is nomiiiHl to I i Se buyer, the profits are suf ficient to the hatchery to make tho business a paying" one. . There are eome hatcheries In Salcni. and ihejr do a wide and flourishing business; this community is especially adapted to this phase of the Industry on account of the dampness) of the climate. s HfZK Production Another interesting part of the business is egg production; it is generally t agreed that the White Leghorns do the best in fhis line, although . there are other good breeds, such as Brown Leghorns, Plymouth Rocks, Anconas, Wyan dottes -and Rhode Island Reds. The success or failure In this line depends upon proper kinds of feed, balanced i properly, feeding at regular Intervals, keeping free from disease, and giving good' protection from inclement weath er. If one keeps sprouted oats, this will supply the green feed, or cabbage will answer, too. Equal piarts of cracked corn, wheat and oats fed sparingly twice each day and one heavy feeding at noon should be fed, also ground meat scraps once each day and scratch feed sprinkled lightly in a dry lit ter each morning. Cracked oyster shell should be where they may have free access at all times, as also should their green feed and plenty of clean drinking water When the weather is cold their quarters should be warmed and their grain food cooked,. The average Leghorn hen will lay from 10 to 12 dozen eggs per year. and the price will safely average 25 cents per dozen for each hen Take one-half of this for feed, and you still have a nice profit even when some is allowed for losses The Willamette valley is a good place for this and is growing more in favor each year. Pekin Ducks Raising Pekin ducks is a good business, for the table. They can be brought up to five pounds i:: two months, then sold. They bring from 2) cents to 27 cents per pound; counting half off for feed, there again is a nice profit. This business, too, may nicely be hand ed the whole year through. The feed for the ducks may be cracked corn, or wheat and something green. . Geese and Turkeys Another line of the poultry busi ness is raising geese and turkeys fcr the holiday trade. The Tou louse geese and Mammoth Bronze turkeys are the best varieties for this; corn and green feed is the best, for this sell some before Thanksgiving and the balance just before Christmas; they bring from 40 to 45 cents per pound. I count off about one-third for feed on these. This part of the business brings in a nice sum. Capons The capon is another angle of the industry, not so very well tried out yet but is becoming more popular each season, and when well learned, makes fine choice meat, each bird weighing around 10 pounds. They also bring about 40 cents per pound. Squabs Some may not term the raising of squabs as Belonging to the poultry industry, but I think one may safely do so. If one is lo cated near a city where he may sell his stock to the high-class hotels and restaurants, they bring from two to three dollars per doz en and they may be marketed when one month old. so the feed bill is not high. This is a good side issue of the business. Ilroilers One more thing is the broilers. I should say to aim to market these just before the holidays, rather than trying for a year round market, the sale or demand will be good then, also they -bring, a fair price. This is for the trade that does not care, to buy the high er priced geese and turkeys. All the above mentioned figures 1 allowed for feed is where the feed is to be bought entirely, but if the feed is raised of course the profits are much greater. Pet Stock For pet stock I will begin with Chinchilla rabbits. An organiza tion has been formed in Salem for the production of tills little ani mal. So far here, this industry is in the introductory stage, but great hopes are expected from them, as they furnish profit two ways, in the production of fi and meat as well, and the feed for these animals does not cost much. The boys and girls In town may well interest themselves in this line, also they may' raise prize poultry for the fair, nor are their means limited here, there are dogs of many kinds and cats that may be raised as pets and bring good returns. Tb the boy or girl living on the farm, their "scope is even wider. They may raise all of the above mentioned to good advantage: then, there may be a pig or litter of pigs, calves and horses, raised from Dure bred stock, with the aim of winning first class honors at fairs. " This not only brings good returns, but educates boys and girls In a line that is much to their advantage. They can plan on In dividual entries or go in for club work. Both phases are Interest ing. Prize winning stock always pays -good premiums, besides hav ing your stdck left develops a love of animals and gives an education in that line. JEAN LUCIEN GRAHAM Parrish. 8th grade, P. O. Box 209 Age 4 4. Salem, Oregon, March 1, 1927. S IS SHI I WEEK BUYING EGGS Lloyd A, Lee Believes We Should and Will Have Much Development Here-f Editor Statesman: We are again getting into a busy season and find little time to do other things than count chicks so pardon the shortness of this year's letter. Probably no one is more Inter ested In the poultry development of this district than I. I believe we purchase more eggs for hatch i; g purposes than anyone else close to Salem. We are' paying and will continue to pay nearly 1000 per week to poultrymen for fcjgh class hatching eggs in the several varieties we use. The im foitunate phase of this situation i that the greater part of these ergs are shipped in from outside communities. Money Slipping Away Why is it that poultrymen and farmers here will let this premium egg money slip away, when they should have it all? There should .e several poultry farms with 1000 hetas on each capable of sup plying satisfactory hatching eggs. The owner of such a farm would find no time to talk "high taxes." He would be too busy in a profit aole business. I believe Salem will see such an expansion here. There is no good reason' why it should hot come, with every advantage to aid its coming, because the inarnet for si'ch eggs in quantity is here. Let us hasten this advancement. Lloyd A. Lee.

Editor -Statesman: . I thank you for giving me the opportunity of saying something in your Slogan- number. Let's nave more and better poultry. Let's" make the slogan: "Let's have better and more, poultry." Let's have the better first. The year 1927 will no doubt see an increase of 25 pep cent in pro duction of poultry in the Willam ette valley. We can stand this in crease; yes, we can stand double or three times.. Yes, 'more than that, if we put the better before the more in the slogan. Survival of Fittest The poultry Industry is getting to be and will continue to be the "survival of the fittest." He who will advance with the times will stay with us. He who does not will fall by the wayside. The foundation Of the industry is the baby chicks and with hatch eries and plants growing like mushrooms, springing up over night, with every Tom, Dick and Harry and all their sisters hatch ing chicks the quality of the baby chicks is getting to be more . i a question every day.
