of last week on his farm about a
quarter of a mile north of Brock,
by shooting himself with a 80

self in the forehead, but did not
infiict a mortal wound, and
going to the house with blood
streaming down his face, his
wife hastily summoned a physi-

He is about so years old, and, it

will not prove fatal.
Mrs. Henry Vantilburg, one of
Darke county's oldest residents
and a most estimable lady, died
at her home on the Fort Jeffer-
son pike about II 20 last Monday
night of a complication of all
ments due to old age. Mother
Vantilburg was born in Butler
Co., O., October 16, 1921, and at
the time of her death was aged
88 years, 3 months and 8 days.
She was married to Henry Van
tilburg in 1843 and has resided in
Darke county ever since. Her
husband preceded her in death in
1884, She is surN ived by four
daughters and one son-Miss Ly-
dia VantiIburg, who resided with
her mother; Mrs. Harvey Hill OF
Palestine; Mrs. Albina Fryar OF
this city; Mrs. Mabel Sarf, re,
siding south of the city, and San
ford Vantilburg, who resides or

BREEDING THE
DAIRY COW

If the individual dairyman wishes to

or provide for herd which will give

he car go about it in two ways. lie

the COW testing association select his

~ qualities be reasonably certain to
obtain young animals with dairy quail

are used to replace the poorer cows i'll
his herd, and In few years he will have
a herd which will produce much more
net profit for the same labor and feed.
The second way is to buy from rep
utable breeders dairy cows of known
qualities or young heifers of good
breeding. But the price asked for such
animals, while it may not be eXorbi-
tant, is usually more than the average
farmer is willing to pay, and he will
find that If he wants good dairy cows
he must raise them himself. And his
success will depend on his realization

mothers of his future herd.

Cara of the Bull.

The bull and the stallion on the farm
often suffer from lack of exercise and
overfeeding. Many are shut up In
dark stables, where the ventilation is
bad and no sunlight ever comes to
generate life and vigor.
1t is wrong for an animal to over
feed the same as it is for a human
being and will result badly in each
case. If the blood is surfeited with
an excess of nutrition some organ is
sure to break down with overwork.
1t may be the kidneys or it may be
the liver. The weakest part gives way
first.
You don't want to have the bull eX-
cessively fat any more than excessive
ly lean. With more food there should
be more exercise and pure air and
sunshine. Keep him in medium con-
dition and vigorous health.
