KEEPING UP QUALITY
IN The DAIRY HERDS
Raise Calves From Best Cows.
Importance Of the Sire.

Dairymen differ to some extent on
the kind of COW which is most profita-
BILE, Some prefer general purpose
COW. one that is mixed with the milk
producing family and the beef breed
of cattle, writes l.. G.. Johnson In
Farm and Ranch. Such cows are Of
large build and easily fattened when
not in milk, and should one prove un-
profitable she can be put on the mar
ket for beef at good price. Such
cows, too, have large calves that are
profitable at the proper age for veal
or to keep over until they are two
years old, then sell to cattle dealers.
Some prefer, myself included, cat
tie OF the distinct type especially
adapted to milk producing. This class
Includes several families or breeds of
cattle. but all have the marked char
acteristics of milk producers. The
best way TO keep up the herd to its
desired number of good cows is by
breeding and raising the calves from
the best mixers of the herd.
do not like the idea of buying and
bringing new cows into the herd. as 1t
is dangerous, and many a herd have
had disease brought among them by
the purchase of single COW and
bringing her into the herd. l always
save the fourth or fifth caif of my
best mixers and breed them at two
years old and at the same time weed
out the cows that are Improbable.
The choice of the bull is of very
great importance, and the saying that
the bull is half the herd should not
be forgotten by the dairyman, as every
calf added to the herd takes half its
blood from the bull. One COW may
prove a poor dam and fail to breed for
a season and yet give a profit In milk.
Such fault is but trivial one and
can be easily corrected, But II the
bull proves poor sire the increase for
whole year is lost. II can be readily
seen that II pays to purchase good
bull and one thai has been tried.

Economy of the Silo.

Making corn into silage is means
Of preserving the grain as well as the
stalk in the best possible condition for
feeding and without the expense of
shelling and grinding. In feeding whole
corn, either in the ear or shelled, many
OF the kernels are not digested. With
silage. the grain being eaten with the
roughage, nearly all the kernels are
broken during mastication, and since
they are somewhat soft, are practically
all digested.

GARFIELD
Should Be Retired Says A
Republican Paper
lMansheld News, Rep.l

No good can be done for the cause
of Republicanlsm in Ohio or anywhere
else by the mugwumpish, mollycod-
ding speeches of Me-too tennis play
er, Jimmy Garfield, whose efforts have
thus far been mainly directed toward
casting aspersions upon two men eth
er of whom, in ability and service to
the party, as well as in Republican
ism, is far and away beyond him.
Garfield has already done enough
damage to the Republican cause in
Ohio and should be retired.
This feeling Is very general among
Ohio Republicans.

che Case.
Chicago, Oct. 31.-That the acquit-
Cal OF Lee O'Neill Browne, Demo
cratic minority leader who was tried
on the charge of bribing legislators
20 vote for William Lorimer for
United States senator, was accom-
Nlished by the use of money, Is the
allegation made following the dis
covery of new sources OF information.
Il Is now charged that a majority
OF the IL men who voted to discharge
Browne held a wine dinner and
"rounding-up" fete at right in places
OF amusement less than week after
the verdict was returned. In this
junction Attorney Charles Brbstein,
one of the trio of lawyers who rep
resented Browne, and who now Is
charged with having fixed" at least
one juror, is declared TO have played
an important part.
But despite this open jollification,
evidence of the use of money In ham
ding the case might not have reach
ed the state attorneys Office but for
che fact that ~ two men who al
ready have confessed-Juror Grant
Mcpherson and Harry T. Stacey, a
Shauffeur--were dissatisfied with the
amount paid them and decided they
we're being "double-crossed." Nc
CHtcheon, the juror, and Stacey, the
man who discovered" him and ad-
mits he fixed him under the direction
OF Attorney Erbstein, says they ex-
pected more than the meager $125
paid them. In this connection the
name of Representative Frederick 70.
Erickson, who was supposed to be in
possession Of political pulls and the
ability to get jobs, is brought in by
the two men.
At any rate their jobs were not
forthcoming and, according to their
stories, they got but the 1925, and
nothing like the large amount OF
money they expected.

Scott, book keeper at the First ma
tional bank, was arrested this after
noon at Kearny and California streets
in San Francisco on charge OF steal
ing $3.50 from the gank. Scott was
taken to Berkeley, where he is said to
have confessed his guilt in statement
tonight to Frank L. Naylor, cashier of
the bank, and Attorney Arthur Elstop.
Scott's theft was discovered when a.
new system of handling accounts at the

the bank officials Scott jockeyed an old
account in the bank which had not
been drawn against for two years. He
drew a check on the long standinf-bal-

it was soon discovered that Scott was
the only person who had access to it.

of1iciaIs, but refused to make any ex-
p1anation as to what had become OF the
