meat. and there will be less waste in
killing.
Thickness of flesh is one of the
most important points to look for.
BY this is meant not fat, but the nat
ural covering of lean meat. Fat can
be put on during the feeding period,
but lean meat cannot. An animal
that is thickly muscled at the begin
ming of the feeding period will fur
nfsh carcass that will be well mar
bled with streaks of fat and lean.
while another on the same feed Will
put most of his fat on in the form of
tallOw.
These same points are the essential
ones to look for in the selection of
ram or boar Strong constitution,
wide. deep, bloclsy form. fine quality
and thick teshing are Just AZ impor-
tant in these animals as in TIL, bull
OF course it will be imp" ssib!e to
find an animal that is perfect in all
points. If tho fcm.les IL v"rr herd
are badly lacking in any particular
be sure to select Il male that is espe
cially strong there. On the other
hand, a slight weakness on the part
of the sire in a place where the fe-
males are especially strong may be
overlooked. An animal that has any
very serious faults. however should
not be considered for moment.
Dairy bulls lack the feshing and
compactness that characterize beet
animals. Low setness and extra
width of back are not SO essential.
Constitution, as shown by Il deep
chest. wide on the bottom and a
roomy barrel. is important. A clean
head. smooth shoulder. fine limbs and
pliable skin show the quality that is
so necessary in n dairy animal The
most important point is prepotency
A strong chest. masculine head and
large rudimentary teats are all indi
cations of this The best way to fore
cast dairy bulls prepotency. how.
ever, is to look up the milk and butter
producing records of his dam and
granddams. A bull out of a high pro

MRS. LEMP DIVORCED;
ALIM0NY $4,000 A YEAR
Sensational Trial eliminates in De-
cree for Prominent ST. Louis Wom-
an-Gets Sons Society.

st. Louis, Feb. ia decree of di
vorce with alimony of $4,000 a
year and the custody of her son was
awarded Mrs. William j. Lemp Jr.,
by Judge George Hitchcock in the
circuit court here yesterday. The de-
cision followed sensational trial
which lasted more than a week and
closed Tuesday last.
Judge Hitchcock stated that the
sole ground for divorce recognized by
him was desertion. 1t had been es-
tablished, he said, that Lemp had alb
sented himself from Mrs. Lemp for
year.
The plaintiff is not entitled to
decree on any other ground, stated in
her petition" said the court. THE is
sue on these grounds are decided in
favor of the defendant"
Mr.. Lemp is given the society Of
the seven-year-old boy from Saturday
morning to Sunday evening Of each
week. Mrs. Lemp had contended
In gross, her attorney asking for
100000. This would have given her
an income of more than thrice the
allowance granted by the court. The
net result of the suit Is regarded
somewhat as a compromise.
The suit was filed by Mrs. Lemp
last autumn. 1t was followed shortly
by her husbands cross complaint and
both bills were frequently amended
before the case came to trial.
When the court proceedings began
Mrs. Lemp made many sensational
statements on the witness stand, as
sorting that Lemp had struck her.
abused her verbally, derided her
church and told their boy that there
was no God Although she swore to
the truth of these statements. Lemp
denied them when he went on the
stand, taking oath to almost the op-
posite. There was considerable tes-
timony as to alleged midnight expe-
ditions by Lemp to various resorts
and he combatted these by attempting
to prove by owners and inmates that
he had not visited these places since
his marriage.

Doctors for the We'll,

There seems to be much to COM
mend the practice of employing doc
tor at so much per year to visit the
homes of his clients, watch their diet,
clothing, habits, the sanitary condi-

teach them the laws of health and how
to be temperate in eating, drinking,
bathing, exercising, recreation and
work. People who are never sick are
the ones to whom this should apply
with special force, for there always
comes the day when sickness knocks

There is two weeks yet of work to

evening. before it can be called fin

playground TO completion, he has stop
ped work on the road along the west
of the park. but this will be resumed
when the playground is done.
He has found a way of widening the
playground at its upper end by shift
ing the road a little to the east, and
this has been done. The hill leading
up to the playground has also been
cut down a little, making the approach
easier. by taking some off the top of
the hill and when this playground
near the Platt avenue entrance is fin

down in the spring. so that there will
be a fine grassy surface there next
summer.
AT this time of the year the number
of strollers in the park decreases. but
there is a good deal of driving there

WILLIMANTIc YOUNG MAN
Charged With Stealing Watch from
His Aunt-Arrested at New London.

John CoSgrove, a Willimantic man,
was arrested for the theft of a watch
in New London on Thursday morning.
Cosgrove went to New London and
tried to sell a gold watch to Morris
Goldberg. He notified the police and
Officer White took Cosgrove into Gus
tody.
He admitted that he came from
Willimantic, so the police of that city
were notified and they Investigated the
matter and learned that CosgroVe had
stolen the watch from his aunt, Ellen
Reilly, but she didn't want to appear
against him. He was held for trial in
the police court and the case went over
to Monday next. Cosgrove could not
furnish bond of $3.50, so he went to
Jail. The watch is valued at 500.
The court had disposed of this case
and was considering other matters
when Cosgrove awoke. Did you read
my case yet?' he asked. Mr.. Hankey
informed him that it had been contin-
ued Previous to this Cosgrove had
denied stealing the watch, out he said:

want to know of you" The remark
was addressed to Judge Colt, who in
formed Cosgrove that he would be
given an opportunity to make in
quiries Monday.
Cosgrove was persistent. He made
several remarks which came perilous
ly near to being within the scope OF
contempt of court. Judge Colt warned
him that he would send him to Jail for
something else if he did not keep still
and then asked Lieutenant Jeffers to
take Cosgrove down stairs. Cosgrove
went, still mumblng. He went to Jail
