 Napoleon Martambault left Sat- urday for Chicago where he will join an acrobatie troupe.

Brooklyn was very quiet satur- day and the majority of the people went to other parts of the city or out of town for the day. There were no brawls or rows to speak of, and the Fourth was one of the quietest in years. The sale of fireworks was not up to the standard of previous years

LOOKING AT CARS
City Officials May Have Some
 Recommendations 10 Make.

The board of safety and the other city officials who went te Bridgeport Saturday afternoon to inspect the fire apparatus of thai town, especially the automobile chemical wagon. were so pleased with what they saw that in all prob. ability a machine similar to that used in the Park City will be pur. chased. Such a machine which is able to travel about 80 miles an hour would be a valuable addition to the department of this city.
 The car which has been so ser viceable to the Bridgeport depart Jment since 1t was purchased last De cember Is Locomobile 55-horse power. It can carry eight men com, fortably and 10 can get on in 2 pinch" It simply goes along like the wind and the Waterbury men that rode in it received the biggest surprise of their lives. The ma chine covered five and one-tenth miles in about minutes.
 It is powerfully built and takes no time to get started. The price is said to be in the neighborhood Of $5,2O0. Although Waterbury will in all probability purchase a com bination hose and chemical machine it will be much the same as the auto with which they were so much pleased Friday.
 Outside of the auto Chief Snagg and the commissioners were chiefly interested in the new aerial truck recently purchased by the Bridge port department. The ladders are self operating and shoot in the air just as soon as spring is touched. The ladders are built on a base which revolves and consequently can be moved around accurately and quickly. It is big improve ment on the hook and ladder ap- paratus at present used in the city.
 Another thing which interested the party was the swinging bit used for the Bridgeport horses. It is a big relief to the horses as the bit is in their mouths only when they are on their way to a fire. The Park City firemen claim that just as quick hitch can be made as with the regular bit but Chief Snagg of this city does not think so, and that is perhaps the main req son why he has never recommended swinging bits for the horses in this city. Chief Mooney of the depart ment and President Bullard of the safety board very willingly gave the local party all the information they wanted and had the members of the hook and ladder company give an exhibition on the aerial truck ih front of the hose houes.
 Although the men are on an aver age bigger than the members of the local department, they are not near ly as hobby set of men. They wear no regulation uniform and in ap- pearance are not to be compared with Chief Snagg's men. Neither are the Bridgeport houses if the one visited is good example on a par with the Waterbury buildigns. The party made the trip in three auto mobiles, two owned and driven by Taylor and Avery while Truman s Lewis was at the wheel of his own car,

Editor the Ranch:
In a recent number of The Ranch
I read an advertisement from r. M.
kellogg Co., Three Rivers, Mich. Tin
the shape of an editoriaD, wrote them
and got their catalogue. They are lay
ing much stress on their plants being
thoroughbred" and "pedigreed,"
which, they claim, makes their plants
so much more valuable than common
plants. Well, this did not sound so
unreasonable to me either, but then
I found the following in an old number
MAY 1st, 1906) of Farm, Stock and
Home of Minneapolis:
"The authors of the late strawberry
bulletin from the Ohio Experiment
Station deprecate the use of the
term pedigree as applied to
plants, for really pedigreed straw
BERRY plants have no other value
above those without a pedigree. The
word pedigree is a misnomer when ap-
piled to strawberry plants, tends to
confusion in the minds of many and
leads to deception. In 1903 the ped
igreed' plants of varieties were COM
pared with plants of the same varie-
ties from reliable grower. Five OF
the varieties gave better yields from
the common than from the so-called
'pedigreed' plants. The experiment
was repeated in 1905 with very SINH
lar results"
Now, according to this, it will look
as if you are a party to defrauding
your subscribers for the benefit of this
Kellogg Co., which you gave your per-
sonal recommendation?

The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1908-06-15

Editorial Note.-The quoted refer
ence from the Ohio Station bulletin
of three years ago Is true. in the main,
in many cases, but not in ALL 1t is
equally true in regard to many pedi-
grees of live stock, but not in all.
Many stallion, bull and ram has had
a pedigree that it did not deserve. The
Rural New Yorker has fought one man
for trading in false pedigrees of Jer-
sey stock until it has secured his ex-
pulsion from Jersey stock associa-
ton. That does not initiate against
the value of other pedigrees, nor show
that pedigrees for live stock should
be condemned at random. The term
has been adopted by growers of i'm
proved varieties of berries, corn,
grains, potatoes, etc., with justice and
is extending in application. Careful
selection and development of animal or
plant Is worthy of reward by the APP
plication of a pedigree to the stock
produced. In the case of r. M. Kellogg
& Co. the whittier injected the praise
due from Is years of personal &C
quaintance with the honest application
of careful business practice and In
tensive methods to the upbuilding of
an important line of horticulture.
While connected with the Michigan
Farmer and the Michigan Farm and
Live Stock Journal, he has met Mr..
Kellogg in Institute and Association
work, and on his home grounds, and
knew whereof he wrote. The Ranch
has turned down several propositions
concerning "pedigrees" because of
doubtful character. and it i'll becomes
Mr.. Stronge to accuse The Ranch of
fraud in this case.-B. e. B.
