shorthorns Popular With Iowa People

The Shorthorns are still decidedly
the most popular of the cattle breeds,
as indicated by the attention given
them at the Iowa State Fair each
year. Last year over 200 were shown,
and they represented the very finest
herds in the world, an exhibit of sur
passing interest to all admirers of live
stock. But in fact all the breeds
were shown and there were more
Herefords even than of Shorthorns.
Gov. Packard still continues at the
head of the cattle department for the
Fair which assures a great success
this year.

Washington. March 1I-An issue has arisen be-

the Interstate Commerce Commission in relation TO
the hours OF service Of the teIegraphers telephone
operators and signal tower employed by the

South Brooklyn branch, thus bringing Il under the
jurisdiction Of the Interstate Commerce Com

The United States law prohibits the employment
Of telegraph and telephone operators and signal

Rapid Transit system these operatives are en-
ployed in shifts Of twelve hours. It Is maintained
by the company. however, that the telegraph and

that in instances do the teiegraphers telephone

eventually be had upon it.
