in size AS his proportions are right, his
bulk may be estimated by his breadth
across the breast By actual measure
mrnt the distance was 21S feet. He is
highly priced as a propagator. The sec,
ond one is yearling of similar color ana
contour, and whose weight will not vary
much from 500. The animals are all OF
a large size. and the best development is
secured by the rearing. There is no
weaning of calves-they run with the
COWS until they voluntarily wean them
selves. The calves and young heIfers are
beauties TO look upon. The same fea-
ture, which belongs 10 these thorough
breds, of the straight spinal line, is obsery-
able in every instance. The cows. which
are all models in their line. are also of
large size, but varying in color, and en-
bracing among them some profuse and
abundant mixers. Beside the twin four
year old heifers, noticed at the time of
their purchase few months ago from
the Calvin Dodge herds, Mr.. Smith has
pair of beautiful twin yearlings, of his
own raising. He informs us that he ex-
poets to continue TO propagate this breed
of cattle until he has herd of rs.
Another addition was made by pur-
chase fIom Mr.. Calvin DODGE, on Monday
last, of q splendid two year old heifer,
which took a first premium at the State
fair last year. She is of the celebrated
English Duchess stock and has the title
of Lady Jane, TO-" She is of deep red
color, and we CHS .15S pounds, and is in
every respect q superior creature. Her
cost was $500. Thus. Mr.. Dodge is trans

profitable breed of animals known in the
country. Stock fanciers will be repaid in

persons pass through tho city OF Fall
River, Mass., with no accurate kuowl-
edge Of its industries, and with very
little idea OF its manufacturing md

Of the Boston aud Fall River railway,
and the landing place Of popular line

only glimpBes Of the city in their nasty
lransIer from boat TO cars or from cars

evening shadows have fallen. The re-
cent destruction by fire Of the Granite
Mills, and the sad loss OF life in connec-
lion, have awakened special interest in
his important manufacturing center.
Fall River was incorporated as a village
more than seventy years ago, and as
tArly as 1913 a cotton factory was built.
