POULTRY EXHIBIT AT STATE FAIR WILL BE GREATEST IN THE SOUTHWEST

One of the largest and best conduct ed poultry shows in the southwest, displaying more than 1200 coops of birds and rabbits, will be an outstanding feature of the Arizona State Fair, November 7 to 12, Secretary J. P. Dillon announced. Six states will be represented in the exhibit, according to W. F. Fetterly, the able superintendent. Many varieties of poultry and rabbits will be shown for the first time in Arizona. There will be more varieties of birds than ever before, Fetterly stated, and this also applied to pigeons and rabbits.

An internationally known judge, W. M. Wise, now of California, has been engaged by Fetterly. Mr. Wise will begin judging the exhibits on Sunday, one day before the fair opens, and will have concluded his work by Tuesday. This assured all exhibits that their birds will Be judged while in their prime. Entries in the poultry department will close on November 2, and all birds must be in their coops by the evening of November 5.

On display in this big department will be every breed of chicken, ducks, geese, turkeys, pheasants, peafowl, pig eons, guineas and rabbits. In connection with the rabbit display it was stated that the American Blue rabbit would be shown here for the first time. There will be two unusually inter-esting displays in the poultry department this year, one by the University of Arizona, and the other by the U. S. Poultry experimental station located at Glendale.

According to Supt. Fetterly, one California man will exhibit 100 pigeons, while a Phoenix resident has agreed to have 28 different varieties of chickens on display.

ARIZONA HIGHWAYS

More than $3,000 worth of birds and rabbits were sold at the fair last year and it is believed that a new record will be established at the coming fair.

The show is held under the rules and regulations of the American Poultry Association.

VEHICLE SUPERINTENDENT CLEARS FEES CONFUSION

Considerable confusion and misunderstanding have arisen from a recent statement in the press to the effect that the new motor vehicle code provides that all operators and chauffeurs must reregister. This is not the case, since the law provides that operators' licenses al-ready issued shall be valid until suspended or revoked.

Such is the assertion of F. M. Whitworth, vehicle superintendent, to clarify the situation under the new motor vehicle code in regard to registration and license fees.

"Owners' licenses already issued are classed in the same situation as operators' licenses," Mr. Whitworth said.

"The chauffeurs' licenses expire December 31 each year and shall be renewed annually upon application and payment of the necessary fees and proof of qual-ifications required by law."

"Chauffeurs' fees are $2 annually.

Duplicate operators' or chauffeurs' licenses cost 50 cents while duplicates of chauffeurs' badges cost $1. Operators' licenses other than owners' is 50 cents."
