BROWN SWISS COW MASCOT.

rattle in this country have made most
amazing records Some have reached
seventy pounds of milk per day and
from eighteen to twenty-five pounds
of butter per week. Their average
butter fat record test is per cent. The
writer observed one COW in this partic-
ular herd that with an average butter
fat test of 312 per cent produced flow
of milk of siXty-fve pounds per day.
The Brown Swiss BrinZ after having
won the first medal at the Paris expo
sition in quantity and quality of milk
over all breeds competed with the fa-
nous ShorthOrns of England, the Hol-
stems of Holland as well as the Chan
mel island breeds.
The calves of these cattle denote
great life and vitality, weighing many
times at birth 12J pounds. The writer
also observed one calf only three and a
half months old tipping the scales at
46O pounds. They are of a light steel
gray color when young, but darken to
a fawn color as they gradually reach
maturity. For veal growing they build
flesh quite as easily as the Jersey, but
average q large size when born, increas-
ing their value many times in that
branch of the daily industry.

SrRAYeR BUSINESS COLLEGE BRANCH OUT
Branch Schools Opened at Washington. D. e.,
and Philadelphia, Pa.

Another evidence that Baltimore
business men were not discouraged by
the fire, is to be found in the recent
development of Strayer's Business
College. This school was located in
the burned district, and lost practical
ly all of its equipment in the fire. Re-
cent developments, however, seem to
show that the school is more vigorous
than ever before. 1t has recently is
sued a complete series of commercial
text books, which have already been
introduced in some Of the best bust
ness colleges.
Branch schools have been opened in
Philadelphia and Washington. Mr.
H. P. Ellsworth, who was formerly
principal of the Commercial Depart
ment of the Baltimore school, has
charge of the Philadelphia school,
while Mr.. P. J. Harman, formerly a
teacher of penmanshlp in the Balt:-
more school, is principal of the Wash
ington school. The Philadelyhia
school is located at the corner of Sth
and Market Sts., and the Washington
school at the corner of 11th and F
Sts., N. w. Anyone who is familiar
with these cities will recognize the
fact that the best possible locations
have been secured for the branch
schools, and anyone who visits them
cannot fail to be impressed with the
up-todate equipment with which these
schools are supplied.
Another evidence of the progressive
ness of the institution is to be fonnd
in the fact that Mr.. Charles S. Gather
man, formerly a teacher IN the school,
has been engaged as Superintendent
of Instruction for the Baltimore
school. Mr.. Californian spent the
whole of the past year In the careful
study of the methods of the leading
business colleges of the East, and ht
comes to his work to the Baltimore
school ready to put in practice the
best methods that are to be found any
where. Mr.. G. A. Braniger, who fol
the past seven years has been at the
head of the Commercial Department
of the Mountain State Business Col
lege at Parkersburg, W. Va, and whC
is a penman of national reputation
has been selected as principal of tn,
Commercial Department of the Balti
more school, and began his work ther,
on September first.
The President, Mr.. S. Irving Stray
er, and the Business Manager, Mr.. I

"He Amt No Dude:"

New stories about President ROose-

Edmund Seymour, a banker, told me
one today that believe to be new. 1t

Amazing Records Claimed In This
COuntry-MascOt n Prize Winner.


COuntry-MascOt n Prize Winner.
The illustration shows Il highly
priced Brown Swiss cow. Mascot, of
which a writer in Rural New Yorker
says: "She is seven years old and has
without doubt won more laurels than
any one of her class. She is one of
eight of the same breed just imported
from Switzerland. The picture was
taken when she was just springing,
thus failing to show her with full de-
veloped udder. She has taken since
1898 first prizes at the Paris exposition,
Nice exposition, Paris fair in 1898, 1902
and 1903 and first at Chambury and
Puy fairs; also champion at Paris fair,
Chambury fair, Aries fair, Nice and
Paris eXpOSitiOns.
Brown Swiss cattle are fast taking
first places in milk and butter quail
ties and are almost equally valuable
for beef raising, being unlike nearly
every other breed, possessing the eX-
cellent qualities for beef as well as by
products. They have been raised and
bred in Switzerland for centuries, gain
ing ground steadily year by year to-
ward high standard of excellence, un-
til today the breeders are able to place
before the world blood with no trace
of inferiOrity, ranking along with the
| best known breeds throughout the
world. These cattle are without doubt
the most hearty and vigorous of any
breed known, keeping in excellent flesh
even while producing a good flow of
milk. They possess strong constitu-
tions, enabling them to resist disease
and acclimate themselves where other
| breeds do not.
We find the disposition in the Brown
Swiss is unlike Jerseys, Ayrshires. etc,
they being more of mild sort. These

POO OLD MISSOURI.

Hidebound Democrats Down Near the
Arkansas Line Fell Disgraced.
Because, they say, Missouri has dis
graced itself by voting for Roosevelt
and forsaking the long and honorable
association with the solid south, farm
ers of Dunklin county, in southwest
Missouri, are circulating a petition
asking the state legislature to trans
fer the county to Arkansas. Two hun.
dred have signed the petition, says
the Chicago Tribune.
Dunklin county is on the northeast
boundary of Arkansas. The vote In
1900 was 2.7l1 for Bryan and LIPS for
Mckinley. This year Roosevelt was
only 200 votes behind Parker. A sim.
liar petition will be circulated In
Pemiscot county. which cast only II
votes for Mckinley In 1900.
The petition states that no honor.
able man can now acknowledge citi.
zenship In Missouri without shame and
disgrace. because II has joined the Re.
publican party and passes into the
domination of the trusts. 1t also de
clares that owing to the complete con
troll the trusts exercise. the state
probably never again will be ruled by
the Democrats. Transfer to Arkansas
Is asked because there men of good
repute can live with selfrespect and
pride.
The farmers OF southern Missouri
are evidently not believers In the old
saying, the world do move" and are
taking a pessimistic view of the situ
alton. They may possibly wake W
and notice things in the course Of the
next twenty-five years. y
