CLEANED PLATTER AT LOUISVILLE SHOW

( .. - ■ f -i•„ .- . Emmet Pullins Won Five Firsts On Turkeys and First Prise Barred Rock Cockerel Pen. il II I ■ . ■ If Jasper county did not prove its poultry superiority completely at the Chicago show, where Emmet Pullins and William Hershman were winners in almost everything exhibited, it was proven last week at the Louisville show. Mr. Hershman did not take his turkeys and Langshan chickens there, but Mr. Pullins had both turkeys and Barred Rock chickens and in the Bronze Turkey events.he won five first prizes, while in the Barred Rock class he won fitst prize on his cockerel bred pen. that being his only exhibit. His success at the big shows has been a great advertisement to him and he is now receiving about thirty letters a day, orders for eggs, and requests for prices on his prize winning birds. He is right in clover now and will doubtless have a busy summer packing turkey eggs at $lO and S2O a setting, and Barred Rock eggs at from $5 to $lO.
