After the war he went to Mendoza,

Mr.. Hodge was one Of the early ar.
rivals in Abilene, coming here In 1869
with Jacob Augustine and together
with Mr.. Augustine blazed the way
for the first colony Of settlers who
came In 1870, the Buckeye colony.
He was associated aiterwsrd In busi-
ness with J. B. Edwards In the gro.
Gerry trade and later was sole proprie.
tor Of the Bee Hive general store for
8 years. He was postmaster Of abb
lene and afterwards with Mr.. Edwards
was in the grain trade for several
years.
He was Q brother OF the late DR.. j..
N. Hodge and was . most genial and
kindhearted gentleman. For the last
10 years III health has caused him to

LOOKING FOR A BEEF TRUST
Department of Commerce Is Trying to
Find the Combine Said by Ranch
men to Exist.

Chicago, April 1S.-Prompted by
compla ints of ranchmen OF the north
west through Representative Martin,
of South Dakota, that it was their be-
lief that a beef trust existed among
the western packers to the restrain Of
trade and tothe detriment of producers
and consumers. the government has
begun it's investigation. James r. Gar
field, chief of the bureau of corpora
tons, Of the department of commerce
and labor and assistant to Secretary
Cortelyou, is in Chicago. He mas come
with Inspector Carroll, of the depart
ment of agriculture, purposely to make
inquiry at the stock yards.
Other men have been sent to Kansas
City Omaha and all large cattle mar
kets, while two representatives of the
government have been sent to attend
range meetings throughout the north
west among the cattle raiserS. All Of
these men making Investigations in va
rious cattle centers are working under
Garfield's orders. When they make
their final report Garfield will compile
his resport to Secretary COrtelyou and
on this will be- determined whether
there exists trust.

The Gardener In Old Rome.

He literally grew colonnades; he fash
toned obelisks Of box, cypress or lick.
He not only f1attered his lord and mas
ter by inscribing his name in odorifer-
GUS herbs or gorgeous flowers that star
tied the garden with occasional tours
de force, but he actually trimmed trees
into family portraits or even those Of
historical characters. He transformed
bushes and thick fOraged shrubs into
the fantastic likeness Of ships, lions,
bears ana birds And these rather de-
generate "conceits" and extravagances
met with profound appreciation and
were rewarded with increase Of wages
by the same individual who, having
tired of mere gladiatorial fights with
wild beasts in the Coliseum, only de-
rived real thrills from such uncanny
performances as fights between women
and dwarfs or women with each other.

paid Of all workers.-Ct. Clair Badde-

.rhe London Bus Driver.

Catch a driver when a clumsy dray-
man has fouled his wheels or blocked
his way or when a rival bus has stolen
a march on him. TLen you will under
stand the Londoners boast that the
cockney is the readiest, the wittiest, of
all his majesty's subjects. The tongue
is not his only weapon. l remember
once starting from the Mansion House
on bus the driver of which had been
maddened by some remark Of the con-
ductor on the bus just in front of him.
The two belonged to rival companies
and were travelling the same route.
They talked it over with pungency and
Zest from the Mansion House to st.
Paul's. At the top Of Ludgate hill, one
of the regular stopping places, the driy-
err made up his mind he could stand it
no longer. He got down from his seat
and pommeled the conductor heartily
for two minutes It refreshed him so
much that at the next stopping place
he did it again. BY the time Charing
Cross was reached it had become a
habit with him. Whenever the buses
stopped there would be brisk settO.

State Bred HO1steins Have Made Fine
Records For MIX and Butter.
Wonderful capabilities for milk and
butter production have been discovered
by the University of California animal
industries experts Of the agricultural
department in their tests of the cows
on the famous stock farm at Rough
and Ready island, near Stockton. the
joint property of Charles D. and W.
Frank Pierce. O. L. Coke Of the Berke-
ley department has: been testing this
magnificent herd of Holsteins, and al
ready a larger number of cows have
qualified for the advanced register in
official butter tests than from any other
herd In the world Although only three
years DID, this collection of cattle out
ranks herds a quarter Of a century
old, so successful have been the breed
ing operations conducted by the own
ers.
Juliana de Kol, two-year-Old heifer.
ranks today as the finest Holstein in
the world. In appearance and per-
Torrance she is perfect. She. like all
the other cattle on the farm. has reach
ed a point where she Is MIXED three
times a day. This product is weighed
each time anG tested twice month,
each time the tests being duplicated in
the Berkeley dairy laboratory. Juliana
de Kol has the worlds record for milk
and butter production in her class.
She gave sc pounds of milk on the first
day Of her test. 437 pounds in days.
1852 pounds in 80 days and 1872
pounds in 50 days. On an 50 per cent
basis her yield OF butter on the first
day was estimated at 3 pounds 9.8
ounces; in days. % pounds 80
ounces; in 80 days. % pounds ~
ounces; in 60 days. 175 pounds 9a
ounces, the yield on the sixtieth day
exceeding that on the first day. Juli-
ana de Kol has thus smashed the thir-
ty day record by 10 pounds 5 ounces
for the previous holder of the record.
Homestead Aggie de KOl. owned by
ex-President w. A. MattesOn of the
HOlstein- Friesian association, had pro-
duced in that time 1872 pounds Of
milk and % pounds "a ounces of but

Now that California Is producing
some of the best cows in the world,
just as she has produced the best
horses, the University of California
dairy department is looking forward
to an early date when the vast posi-
breeding will receive recognition and
aid from the state.
