Public Session of C. F. Smith Pomona
Grange.
A regular meeting of @. F. Smith, Po-
mona Grange was held at PerIey's hall,
Enosburg Falls. Saturday, Feb. &c. In
the afternoon Prof. J. L. Hills, director
of the Vermont agricultural experiment
station. delivered an address on "Why
the Farmer Should Become Better In
structed in Regard to Scientific Fertiliza-
tion," after which the following subjects
were presented: profitable Economics
of Labor in the Household" by Mrs ].
K. Montague and "How I Expect to

Produced in Franklin County," by the
lecturer.
Value of Cow Testing.
At the sessions of The Farmers Week
held at the Vermont Experiment station
F. w. Wiggin, manager of The Queechee
Fells farms gave an address on docs 1t
Pay to Test Ones Cows" An abstract
of the address follows;
Reasons. 1t is the only way to detect
the Star Boarder. A cow in Vermont
cannot be pro6tably kept if she produces
less than 200 lbs. of butter fat. The
dairy cows of the United States average
only 142 lbs. per year. How many like
this in your herd? 1t enables a man to
get two lbs. OF cream where he got one
before. To get two cows into the hide
of one; lightens labor; lessons feed bills;
increases profits. 1t saves valuable time
and feed because man would certainly
be perverse sinner who would care for
and feed an Improbable cow. 1t eleva-
| ties dairying from the humdrum of milk
ing to the rank of a profession science,
a business conducted on safe, conserva-
tive business principles.
1t prompts the better care of stock,
| better feeding methods, better results,
hence greater profits. 1t is the only sure
| way to Gull out the robber and the thief,
imprison the man who steals. 1t would
| be money make to confscate and des-
troy the cow which is permitted to rob
her owner 365 days in the year. Testing
picks her out. 1t enables you to discover
if your separator is Swimming clean. 1t
helps you to keep tabs on the creamery
mems tests. 1t increases the value of
every COW, heifer, and calf you have for
sale. Its greatest advantage may be
that it gets men to thinking along right
lines.

in Northern Holland are harder than
those in the South, this is especially so
on the island of Marker. But / do not
wonder, for the men are all fishermen and
when they 60 to sea it is so uncertain
that they will return alive, and when
they do they may have had a poor catch
and so do not have many fish to sell, to

HARB0R TERMINAL RATES
ARE OPERATIVE TOMORROW
Roads Comply with Ruling of the
Commerce Commission

Terminal rates TO San Pedro harbor
will become effective tomorrow. This
was brought about by an action initiat-
ed before the interstate commerce
commission some time ago by the Har-
Dor City Wholesale company of San
Pedro to obtain terminal rates.
No lines east of Chicago, and only
the Rock Island road east of the Mis-
sissippi, was made a party to the
action. The commission ruled that
other transcontinental lines would
have to be brought into the case, and If
they did not come voluntarily the COM
mission would take steps to bring them
in by citation.
Legal action was made unnecessary,
as the railroads complied with the
opinion of the commission without fur
ther proceedings, and accordingly the
commission ordered terminal rates to
become effective October 10.

SHERIFF MURDERED IN
CABIN IN MOUNTAINS
Belief Exists Crime Was Commit
ted in Revenge for Arrest
Made by Officer
Especial to The Heraldl

DAGGETT, Oct. S.-J. M. Woods
worth, probably the oldest sheriff in
the United States, was murdered in a
wood camp in the Mccullough noun
tains, twenty miles west of Search
light, on the eastern boundary of this
county. He was last seen alive Sep
tember 20. Searchers found the body
in his cabin. His head was crushed
and an arm broken.
A bloody club on the floor was used
by his assailant. AS none of his valu-
ables were missing, it is believed the
crime was committed in revenge by
a criminal he had arrested while sheriff
of Pike county, Nevada, where he
served eight terms.
The murdered sheriff was known
throughout San Bernardino county, to
the desert regions of which 1t is be-
lieved his slayer fed, and local officers
are carefully guarding every highway
from the scene of the crime and the
Mojave desert.

ARTISTS WILL COMPETE
FOR EXPOSITION PRIZE
Offer $1,000 for Design Suggest.
i've of Opening of the
Panama Canal
Especial to The HeraldI

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. S.--Artists
and painters of the highest rank all
over the country have indicated their
intention to compete for the $1OoV
prize offered by the Panama-Pacific
Exposition committee, the largest prize
ever offered for a contest of this CHAR
acter.
Not only will the men who have been
adding luster to the fame of California
by their work in the east be repre-
sented, but the artists whose magazine
covers, illustrations and paintings have
made their individuality familiar 10
all Americans will try to achieve the
distinction of having created the design
that will symbolic the greatest WORK
of man. The contest Is open TO every
artist in the United States, but 1t is
the belief of the committee tnat the
virile imagination of some young all
fornian will rise to the opportunity
offered by the contest. Whistler and
most of the eminent painters and
scuIptors who have watched the
awakening of American art have as
serted that the really great thing VIII
he done in the near future In the
United States, and they nave con-
sidered California the cradle or the ma
tive art of America.
No more inspiring tHello n1S 80
been presented to creative mind than
the opening of the Panama canai, ana
the making Of the design should caiI
forth the best thought and technical
skill in the nation. Hundreds OF sug-
gestions have already been presented.
Thousands doubtless will follow. But
out of the lot there will probably be a
limited number whose strength of con-
ception and power of technique will
enable them to stand out as the real
competitors. .,..
In making the drawings competitors
should bear in mind that the design Is
to he used on everything sent out by
the exposition commIttee-letterhea
stickers, posters and all other matter
and should therefore make their
rI,o+obas conform to this end.
