FUTURE OF FLYING
After Awhile Everybody VIII BE Co
ing Up I'm the Air.

! During the year of grace, 1909,
seroplane machines and new devices
brought forward for their improve
ment; we may have flights of three OF
four hours duration; journeys of over
a hundred miles through the air; the
Channel will very likely be crossed
and I certainly hope that Englishmen
will not be behind in producing good
appliances
The year after should show further
developments, especially as regards
'the number of machines. Abroad there
may be scores of them; so machines
of the Wright type are even now sup
posed TO be in course of construction.
Exciting races will undoubtedly take
place and cross-country journeys will
often be performed. Military machine
will certainly be TO the fore, and will
be attractive features at field days
and reviews. Experience and develop
ment are sure to result in the produc
ton OF more practical appliances, able
to stem the gales and to start from
any piece Of ground.
About the third year from now most
people in England will have seen al
flyer in the air, and a great many ofI
the more adventurous ones will have
made flight. Aerial racing will have
become an established sport. and
cross country JOURNEYS will he common
There would probably be 80 or 40 ma
chimes in England, and they would
then be much commoner than balloons |
are today. Cross-channel trips would
certainly become the object of the
of each novice in turn.
At this rate, in four years time we
may be able to say that flying is COM
mon. 1t may perhaps still be looked
upon as a somewhat venturesome
practice, and among the general COM
munity may not be exactry an every
day experience. but most well-to-do
people will have made a trip, and
many will own machines and make
almost daily runs. 1t will be quite
the thing" to take your friends to fly.

COUNTRY LIFE AND INFLU-
ENCE OF GOOD ROADS

How to keep the young men at
home on the farm has been a much
discussed question for many years.
That some are not kept there has,
however, been a distinct gain to
civilization, through the advent into
commercial and professional life of
young men with strong constitutions
and resolute minds. But the question
has remained unanswered. 1t is pro-
| bable that if the men who, after leav-
I ing the farm made pronounced sue
cesses, had remained on the farm,
their success in life would have been
equally great in comparison with their
surroundings. They would as many
others have done, have d!gnified their
occupation, improved the condition of
those about them and aided in the
usefulness, the same as they have
done in the wider field which they
Occupied.
1t has always been the contention
of the Good Roads Magazine that bad
country roads are largely responsible
for the failure Of the farm to hold the
interest of the boys. One of the
points of observation has been that
most of the boys that leave, go from
the hills and the back neighborhoods,
rather than from the homes along the
most travelled and, naturally, the
best kept roads, and that in proper
ton as roads are improved, and social
intercourse between families and with
in neighborhoods become more COM
mon, do the young men remain at
home, ornament their residences and
other buildings clear up tn landscape
and make 1t attractive, and establish
homes satisfying to the minds and
tastes of cultivated people.

themselves TO be real varsity timber
Means easily captured the discus, his
three throws being Ill, III, and 119
feet. He easily won a place in the
shot put, by putting the 16 pound
ball 81 feet. Johns, who never took
an active interest in track work be-
fore, ran like an old timer. In the
half mile run he took a strong Sec

yards Johns ran McDaniels, who
stared for Portland academy, a close
race, losing by half yard. The time
of this race was 33 seconds.

Sundays three cornered double
header baseball contest turned out to
be a decided walk-away for the Pen
dleton Indians. There was nothing to
1t but a serious scoot around the
bases and the games were won.
Neither Of the opposing teams had a
look-in for a minute.
1t was not so much the inferior
playing Of the defeated teams as the
superior work of the victors that was
responsible for the large one-sided
scores. The Indians played by far
the best ball of any time this season
and 1t is evident that Pendleton has
the making Of a splendid amateur
team.
The work of the battery was especi-
ally good. Both Dickson and Hutch
inson slipped over the benders in such
a shape as to puzzle the opposing
batters, Hutchinson being in the box
in the first contest and Dickson in
the second. They alternated at field.
The batting Of Baker and Strand
was also among the features of the
games. Strand replaced Robbins in
the field for the second game and
swatted the ball clear over the fence
the very first time he came to bat.
The Outlaws were the first victims,
and though they started off with one
score they were soon left far benin !,
for there was nothing doing in the
scoring line for the outlaws, there
after. The Indians scored three men
in the first, three in the second, eight
in the third, three in the fourth and
three in the fifth. The game was for
only seven innings.

SOME HOLSTEIN
QUALITIES.

Every breeder of dairy cattle has his
particular choice, but this does not pre-
clude the recognition of strong quail
ties in other strains. Some prefer the
Jerseys, some the Ayrshires and some
the Guernseys, while there are many
other breeds that are well liked. A
Massachusetts, dairyman whose choice
is the Holsteins tells why he prefers
them, as follows:
tsHolsteins excel in milk production.
The breed is also superior for veal pro
duction and valuable for beef. For
generations the natural conditions un-
der which these cattle have been de-
veloped have been most favorable for
this combination of qualities. Looking
upon one Of its model cows, the broad
loin and rump seem just the places fol
the growth of the finest quality of
beef and the fit support Of the capa-
cious udder. The straight quarters
and well rounded body cannot detract
from milk production. The calves are
large at birth and grow and fatten
with great rapidity. The breeders in
Holland have always avoided inbreed-
ing. In proof that this bree4 has main.
tanned a high standard Of vital force
point to it's use in almost every eli
mate, including that of northern Rus
STA nearly up to the arctic circle. Here
in America the breed is as hardy as
our native cattle, and calves are raised
without difficulty.
'There can be no profit in animals
that consume only the necessary food
for support. The more they can con-
sumo, digest and assimilate above this
the more profitable. The other charac-
teristic is in the fact that dairy ami
mails should by no means be choice in
the quality Of their food. Cows that
will freely consume the roughage Of
our farms and transmute it into valua-
BILE products-milk, butter, veal, beef
are more valuable than those that re-
Quire the costlier commercial feeds.
These cattle from calfhood upward
are by no means choice in the quality
Of their food.
Quantity Of production and persist
ency of milking during long periods
are well known characteristics Of this
breed. Dropping her first calf at about
two years old, an average cow Of this
breed, if well cared for, will produce
from 5000 to 5000 pounds of milk in
ten months, and she will increase this
production each and every year until
at five years old she will give from
1000 to 5000 pounds. The quality Of
this milk will range from to per
cent fat and from to 10 per cent SOL
ids not fat
"In 1880 the cow Aaggie made rec
ord of 1904 pounds of milk within
one year from date Of calying. This
record was almost universally regard
ed as an impossibility. Among those
that Joined in this view was Professor

Long of England, then publishing a
large work on dairy husbandry In
August, 1885, the owners Of Aaggie
commenced a record of the COW Clio
thilde. They invited public scrutiny
Of this record during it's full progress.
A number of persons interested them
selves in it in order to learn the
amount Of her production beyond a
doubt, among which were leading men
connected with dairy publications. Al
different periods, including one during
the last week of her record, she was
under the official care of the superin
tendent of the Holstein advanced reg
istry. Her record for the year was
26,O21 pounds of milk.
: "Rosa Bonheur V. in six weeks
test produced 1875 pounds butter or a
daily average Of 1923 pounds.
"Belle Sarcastic in six weeks test
produced 1876 pounds, or daily aver
age of 326 pounds. That the Holstein
is unapproached by any breed Of cattle
in the production of large quantities of
milk no one will deny"

IMPROVING the Herd.

! find the important points in Inn,
proving herd are proper feeding,
keeping complete and accurate records,
breeding to registered bulls and culling
without mercy, says prominent dali
ryman. 1 have no sympathy with the
idea of weighing the milk one or two
days in the month in order to secure a
record Of the cows work. If 1t is
worth doing at all, and it certainly is,
it is worth doing well, and [ say
weigh every milking and record it.
The time required is infnitesimal If
things are arranged as they should be,
and the results will pay a hundredfold.

cows are doing who is making money

ance on the right side of the ledger he
must have a good grade of mares, as

Having been connected with the
breeding industry for fifteen years in
the care and handling of stations for
public service in a farming commu-

q great number of farmers to use their

best they have, and in many cases the
best are poor enough, but when man
has a good mare and then breeds a
broken down cripple with about all of

serve to have good colts.

At public sale in Missouri $3.50
was paid for a jack, and thirty-one
head brought an average of $50. Ten
states in this country and one state in
old Mexico were represented by buy
ers. There was a crowd of thousand
at this sale, all Of which gives evil
dence of the wonderful prosperity of
the mule industry The high prices
being paid for jacks are due, Of course,
to the prices now ruling for mules.
There is a country wide demand for
hybrids that is almost Unsuitable. The
