Will Try to Organize A Poultry League.

To organize a poultry association which would include several cities of Northern Indiana, which would do away with the old Wabash Valiev Poultry association, is the plan being discussed among some of the members of the late association and it is highly probable that the suggestion will meet with general favor when brought up for formal consideration at the next meeting of the board of directors. As yet no definite plans have been made, but at least one of‘the officers of the old association at Huntington is pushing the project and others have arfnounced their Willingness to accept the plan. Huntington, Fort Wayne, Wabash, Logansport, Delphi, Decatur and Rochester are among some of the cities mentioned as possible members of the new association which is planned, and with them allied, a strong organization would be assured. Most of them are already good towns for the support of poultry shows and with their union, interest would be increased. One of the greatest arguments which is advanced in favor of the new plan is that it would lessen the individual expense of each city in conducting annual shows. This is no mean figure and it has been almost impossible to make both ends meet in some of the cities, but the exhibits here always paid. Different plans have been adopted in the cities mentioned to increase the attendance at their shows, but none have been successful in making them paying affairs.—Logansport Pharos.
