Page 8 to protect Stalingrad and provide a safe port, which may seem mod- est for one of the world’s future powers. In answer to a question the speaker ventured the opinion that in good time Russia would open against Japan, but not to gain more territory and would prefer that Manchuria revert to China, as it was originally. In fact, he presented Stalin as a modest in- dividual, most anxious to work in hand with the United States, from which it had gained most of its war protection, and its means of progress as a nation; to copy more or less and measure the good results that follow capital- istic government; but he admitted that this country will still have its suspicions. Another feature of the meeting was a brief talk by Joe Graham, commending Rev. E. C. Muhly, as a member of the club now leav- ing for his new pastorate at Twin Falls,.Idaho, and for good work in building up physically and spir- itually his Mount Olive Lutheran Church in Shelton, and extending the best wishes of the club for his future success. Rev. Muth re- sponded briefly in returning his appreciation for past support in his efforts. Next Tuesday's meeting will be ladies’ night with a guest speak- er from the university.

Hints on Poultry Raising Contained In Report from County Agent’s Office Laying flocks made up of en- tirely good, healthy pullets raised on clean ground and kept en- tirely away from older poultry are most.likely to live and lay best. Fred Frasier, extension poultry specialist at the State College of Washington, sums up these ad— vantages of well-managed, all- pullet flocks. They can readily be established by buying healthy, bred-to-lay chicks from a reliable hatchery early each spring. Pullets lay more eggs than hens of the same breeding. Serious diseases are less likely to affect pullets where they are kept in flocks by themselves. If pullets are kept in the same flock with older birds, these pul- lets are more likely to get di- seases. When layers are kept a second year they should be kept separate from the pullets. Poultry diseases and parasites are commonly spread from older poultry to younger stock by con- tact or through manure or equip- ment. Starting with a new flock each year largely offsets this danger. Early hatched pullets also lay in the fall months when egg prices are relatively high. Most yearling hens are melting instead of being in good lay at that time. Partly for this reason the average pul- let generally lays from 20 to 50 more eggs in a year than a year— ling or older hen of the same breeding. Intense Drive To Secure Fir And Spruce I Seattle, Dec. 27—Upland for- ests of Noble fir on the Cascades and the Olympics are the front of a war drive by logging operators and their crews, the objective be- ing special woods for producing I4,000 more troop-carrying gliders, I an announcement of the West ICoast Lumbermen’s Association i stated today. i “Aircraft grades of Noble fir ,‘ and Sitka spruce are hard to get,” the Association said. “Like the ‘ orders for special grades of Doug- las fir for military truck bodies, the urgent order for aero lumber came at a tough time of the year for West Coast loggers. Noble fir grows only at elevations of 2,500 or more feet. At this season snow enough to make logging impos- sible may storm along any day ~where the Noble fir ranges. I “So the order of the day for the upland loggers is to get out all the logs possible while the ground is good. Seven million feet of aircraft stock will be required, in an average supply of 700,000 feet per month for ten monthsto maintain the schedule of glider i construction. ! “Aircraft lumber specifications 'are so high.” the Association pointed out, “that only from 10 to 15 per cent of the average No— ble fir or Sitka spruce log output will make the grade. That is, some 70,000,000 feet of the aircraft spe- cies of timber must be felled, bucked and hauled out of the woods to provide the select 7,000,- 000 board feet of quality lumber that American Army gliders re- quire. ! “The present big production 3drive in upland logging opera- ;tions is to log out and pile up a giant reserve of Noble fir aero timber, to provide a supply during the period when deep snow stops 'high mountain logging.” l Washington Co-op. AR Members Get Dividend For the 24th consecutive year, a dividend payment is being dis- bursed this week to members of the Washington Cooperative Egg and Poultry association, it is an. nounced by General Manager Harry cent dividend totaling $267,508 is based upon the investment which individual farmer-members hold in the common and preferred stock of their association.

The SECRET WEAPON of suc- is continuous ,has been one of the most serious Active Club Directs Infantile Paralysis Drive Appointment of the Active Club of Shelton to direct the 1945 “Fight Infantile Paralysis” cam- paign for Mason county was an- nounced today by E. G. Sick, Seat- tle industrialist and civic leader who is state chairman of the Na- tional Foundation for Infantile Paralysis drive. Mr. Sick stated that this year in history as to the severity and MSHELTON-MASON COUNTY JOURNAL‘ number of infantile paralysis cases reported nationally. “Wash- ington, fortunately, had fewer cases than has ordinarily been true in past years,” Mr. Sick ob- served, “but nationally, this has been the second worst epidemic year in the history of the United States. That is why we must do an even bigger and better job in the forthcoming campaign. We must make certain that where- ever the disease strikes next year there will be funds available to fight it just as effectively as has been done this year."' Appointed by Ed McKinney, president of the Active Club, to organize and conduct the cam- of Bob. Million, chairman, Lyle McElroy and John Ballard. “The drive will start January 14 and continue through the 30th,” Mr. Million said. “Commit- tee appointments to complete the fund-raising organization thruout the county will be announced in a few days. Campaign plans now being developed include the active participation of every phase of our civic and community life, and we hope to make it possible for every business, every organization and every family in the county to be represented by some contri- bution to the 1945 ‘Fight Infan- tile Paralysis’ campaign."

Later on, when building materials are available, the board plans to construct a new and more attractive home for the ferry operator, which will be own- ed and maintained for him by the county. Other rosy prospects for Har- stine Island ferry passengers in Thursday, Degamber 28, ' 1945 will be a speeded-up service when the new ferry now under construction at Olympia, is into service a little later in year.
