cation Here.

cred in Totten's studio! 10th street and

nattee, composed of representatives from

able to ST. Louis He says:
1.-THE Worlds Fair at St. Louis in

portunity for calling the widest atten-
ton to the great excellence of the
Brown Swiss cattle as profitable milk
and beef producers, and the most
should be made of this favorable oc-

are many superior Swiss COWS in the
United States that should take part in
the Worlds Fair test, and the value of
every good COW in the competition will
be increased in proportion TO her rec
ord.
1T is my desire to put some of the
best Brown Swiss cows in the country
in the Worlds Fair dairy test. and par
ties who have tirst-class cows that will
