which followed, and led the scramble to
cover. Within half an hour after the
announcement Union Pacific had
bounded up more than eight points and
Southern Pacific nearly seven. Fever
ish activity prevailed i'm the two stocks
throughout the session with various
halts in the upward movement when
the traders sold to realize profits.
Upward Movement Continued.
Except for these halts the upward
movement IL Union Pacific continued
throughout the day almost to the close
of the market. when there was a slight
recession on profit-taking. Southern Pa
cities advance. however, was halted
early and held. Union Pacific's extreme
advance was from 1925 TO 179A and

ination for vice president will probably

ROOD Nrops as a Ration..

While many, or indeed most, of the
root crops contain considerable food
value, it Is not claimed by those who
advocate feeding them that they con-
tain elements which VIII make them a
prominent ingredient in the balanced
ration. Not understanding this, many
dairymen, especially, have objected to
root crops for their COWS, hence have
discarded a most valuable adjunct to
the ration for milk cows. In their
way roots supply to the COW the same
essential, succulent feed that does
silage, and there is. nothing better for
keeping the bowels, in perfect condi-
ton, to say nothing of the value Of
roots as an appetizer.
Take the average daily ration of
corn meal, wheat bran and oil meal,
with the necessary roughage, and q
daily feed of even small quantity of
roots will add greatly TO the appetite
of the COW, keep her in excellent con-
dition and materially assist IN increas-
ing the quantity of milk given. Add
W CIhS sui VI A0Cuah5 SlCah' hsht
and well-ventilated stable, with plenty
of salt and plenty of clean, fresh water
daily, and one has given the COW ey-
cry possible opportunity 10 produce re-
suits, and on a most economical basis.
Those who have tested root crop feed
ing properly, without materially cut
ting down the regular rations, know
the value of them, and would not
think of cutting them out of the regu-
lation feeds.

Measure Your Friends.

did you ever amuse yourself" asks
the London Gentlewoman, ION a wet
Sunday afternoon by giving marks Of
appreciation or the reverse to all your
friends and acquaintance? This is
the method we employ: There are five
heads-t1) looks; (2) manners; CD
abilities; (4) merit, and (5) use
and this fifth item often balances all
the rest, for a person may quite likely
possess nearly full marks for looks.
manners, abilities and merit, and vet
be of no possible use to oneself, while.
vice versa, some person may be of
great use, one may fancy their COM
pany, or they may have a knack of
sympathy, yet be very deficient in man
ners or merit The marks range from
0 to 20, and if you are quite consclen-
tious in awarding your marks you will
be surprised to find how the law of
averages comes in and how much the
sum total of one individuals marks re-

manager, my fate was sealed. He told
me | would just suit a small part in a
play he was bringing over from Eng
land, and offered me the chance to play
1t To be sure, it was a small part, but
/ didn't hesitate a minute.
For six months we toured the coun-
try. Wild horses could not drag me
off the stage after the taste of it, and
L had my reward. Late in June Mr..
Frazer summoned me to his office
Bates" he said, how would you
like to play with Miss Allen?"
gasped. Helen Allen was the star
of the Frazer constellation. Her plays
were always the picll of The bunch and
she invariably stayed for half the sea
