Whilo tho matter Is still fresh, It
might not he Inappropriate at least
to make a few remarks about her,
leaving tho eagle bird out of It.
Now hero are a few facts about otir

the poultry Industry than any other In

requires then to be well started Is n

W. C. HUYLEY,
Republican Direct Primary Nominee
for Congress, has received the com
mendation of President Taft and
Roosevelt and of the people of Ore
gon genorally for his support of pro
gressive legislation. Mr. llawley Is
a native born Oregon, and is familiar
with the affairs of Oregon, and will
continue to serve the best interests of
her people.
Tho Eugene Guard has the follow
ing relative to Mr. llawley:
It is hut simple Justice to a hard
working, sincere mnn to sny that Con
gressman llawley possesses those
qualifications for the office he holds.
There are ninny smoother politicians
on duty nt the national capital, many
more brilliant orators, but probably
no member who Is really trying hard
er to serve his constituents In a ma
terial wny. More than this, Mr. Haw
ley Is a plain forceful Bpeakor, with
ample ability to express himself In
public, voicing tho wishes of the peo
ple he represents.

ono cackled before. Outside of the
business sections of the big cities It Is
possible to raise chickens, and It Is
but little trouble and Indeed to many
a real pleasure to raise and care for n
dozen or two of them outside of the
financial side, of the business,
Tho fairly bred hen of today will lay
nn average of 1T dozen eggs a year
worth $l..rirt. That. Ib what It would
cost a family to buy them. At the
same time tho cost of keeping n dozen
or two of chickens by that family, util
izing tho table scraps, etc., for feed
would not exceed ono dollar per hen
f'"ir a year. Here Is where the high
cost of living gets a Jolt. With a dozen
hens laying l!i dozen eggs a year each
you will get for your table six fresh
oggs every day of the year, or 1S0
dozen nt a cost of $12, or fi 2-3 cents a
dozen, Instead of 30 cents. Then, ns
wo have slated, any one who has n

find money enough to start n little
private chicken business of his own,

Oregon, with Its splendid climate, nnd
vast resources, Its mild winters, nnd
long summers, would not keep on Im
porting eggs from Nebraska.

then, nfter a few days of rejoicing or
kicking over the results, as they may
happen to please or displease the In

Superintendent ,1. M. Smith reports
that. n0 dried prunes are yet being
packed because of the prevailing low
prices. As soon ns t ho price goes up
a few notches, packing will be on In
full blast. Some apples nre being
packed, but none are being shipped on
account of the poor market now pro

are said t bo keeping the market

V. ti. Holt, of tho Spauldliig Lum

one and a half feet above the low
water mark, the rise having occurred
since tho beginning of tho prevent

likely to go down ngoln until next
September when the lowest mark of
the year is usually reached.
Mr. Holt says that his firm will not
