DfllLiY ¡ y 4 he S, ^ew s Éditer“ ’ A SH LA N D D A IL Y - o— ■ •"« ; I THE POULTRY INDUSTRY A esterdav we received a communication from the Petaluma, California Chamber of Commerce, in respouse to a question we had asked them as to what steps had been taken to make their community the recognized poultry eenter of the west. Their reply was characteristic of California. “ Petaluma is a poultry center because we have the climate, the soil, the water, and every natural resource for making it what it iff.” He might have added they were fortunate in having people with sufficient vision, to forsee the great possibilities of this industry, and henoe capitalize upon them. Petaluma has nothing that Ashland does not have, we have the soil, better many say, than that of California, we have the climate, we have the water, and above all we havo the people, who have demonstrated in the past that they have vision suffi­ cient to take advantage of the natural opportunities. We believe that a united interest in this great pro­ ject would bring untold weiytli to this community, and it ’s only a question of time until this united ac­ tion will start gaining momentum, and- when it does, Petaluma and other places where poultry now flour­ ishes, will have this community to contend with.

A multimillionaire Peruvian nmgnatc gave the ban­ quet to tw enty South Americans in liouor of Ecua* dor’s minister to France. Medieval meats, breads, pastes and pastries were prepared from the famous recipes of Taillevent, famous cook to old ChMr|g VII of France, who was known a« somewhat of an epicure and gourmand. One dainty phase of the feast was the serving of the wine. According to old custom, the waiters stuck their thumbs in the wine when serving. , The banquet room was covered with sweet-smell­ ing herbs into which the guests threw their gnawed lames, a«d where the waiters dumped the general food refuse. There were no forks, and the table was laid with a votarnimms cloth nerving as napkins as £ r INTIN¿ ,ÇQ, OUR WAY T ID IN G S O U T Ite to re d a t th« Ashland, Oregon Poafofflce as Sceond G U f l M a il M a tte r THE REDWOOD HIGHWAY » Member« of the Redwood Empire Hotel and Resort Keejiers Association of California, extended their trip into Grants Pas«, where they held a business meeting, and mingled with * members of the Hotel Mens Association of Oregon. Oregon hotel men attended one of the meetings sponsored by their 'California friends, and they were aghast at the co­ operative spirit expressed at this meeting? They were surprised at the way the committee members prepared their reports, and they were elated over the manifestations of cooperation that was expressed by the visitors. • • The Redwood Highway means something to the hotel men, but it does not mean any more to them than it does, every business institution that may be Imsking in the sunlight of additional busiiiegs through this highway. There was some concern felt by Ashland representatives at .this meeting in that there was a jiossibility that traffic might be diverted over the Highway way to the detriment of this section. California supporters attempted to point out, that tourists could be routed up the highway and come down the Pacific. Little consolation can be derived from this however in that a good portion of the tourists, from the east will find other roaefcf back to their homes, from their southern destina­ tion. It behooves Ashland and other communities who are not on the Redwood Highway, to look into this matter. This meeting should bring a realiza­ tion to the communities that might be effected that other districts want the tourist traffic and that they are making an organized effort to secure it.
