anca. Mr.. Otremba threw his spear and
hauled In his prize and threw it out
upon the ice. The fish soon saw the
hole in the ice vacated recently by Mr..
Us fish house and made
for it and got through, and again
made for tho decoy. Mr.. o. repeated
this all day and was counting up how

Il Special beef breeds, special dairy
breeds and the so-called general or
dual-purpose breeds. The special
beef breeds have been selected, bred
and fed for the production of beef
and little attention given to milking
qualities. In some of these breeds
the milk-giving quality is developed
little if any beyond the needs of the
calf. Indeed, in certain individuals
of some of the beef breeds the milk
giving function has degenerated to
the point that they do not give
enough milk to raise calf we'll. This
does not apply to the average cow of
any breed. but is true only of few
individuals.
In these special-purpose beef
breeds high-class carcass has been
aimed at and much success has been
| attained.
With the special-purpose dairy
breeds, milk and butter fat produc-
| ton have been the aim and as a re-
suit the type or form of these dairy
cattle has developed quite differently
from the accepted type of the beef
animal. This would indicate that
there is something antagonistic be-
tween the best beef production and
the greatest dairy efficiency. The
| breeder OF beef cattle has not sacri-
feed dairy qualities willingly and
| would have been glad to retain them
hn
curing the highest type of beef ami
NAL. On the other hand, the breeder
OF dairy cattle would not object to
good beef carcass IL he could re-
tain it while developing the highest
dairy excellence Since these are un-
doubtedly facts, and one has lost
dairy efficiency and the other beef
quality, while developing their cat
tie along special lines, 1t seems GER
tain that there must be something
naturally antagonistic between the
highest beef and dairy excellence In
the same animal.
Limitations Of the Dual-Purpose
Breeds.
In the dual-purpose breeds the at
tempt has been to retain both the
dairy and beef qualities. Taking the
dual-purpose breeds as a whole, con-
siderable success has undoubtedly
been attained In maintaining the
beef and dairy qualities, but in indi-
vidual animals the success has been
very much less marked. In fact, the
task OF securing breed Of cattle in
which any considerable proportion of
the individuals possesses both dairy
and beef qualities of high order,
has not yet been solved. Individual
animals of the dual-purpose breeds
show high beef-producing merit,
while other individuals possess dairy
efficiency: but high order OF both
Is seldom or never seen in the same
animal. The average OF none Of the
dual-purpose breeds can be said to
possess high. order OF merit in
both beef and dairy production.
In other words, IL man aims at
beef production he will secure
higher average of merit in, say, 100
beef bred steers, than from 100
steers of the dual-purpose breeds,
and on the other hand a larger num- |
Der OF superior dairy cows may be
counted on to come from, say 100 |
heifers, produced by special dairy |

ton alone. The quantity and charac-
ter of the feed has played an import
ant part. 1t is consequently claimed
by many that the dual-purpose breeds
being generally smaller than the
special-purpose beef animals and
able to get along on less feed are
better adapted to Southern condi-
tons. 1t is also claimed by many
that on high-priced land no man can
afford to keep a beef COW for her
calf alone and this is certainly true;
but 1t is also probably true that on
such lands he can not afford TO keep
beef cattle at all, or at least. that the
dairy COW would be found more pro-
fitable.
Usefulness of Dual-Purpose Breeds.
The question OF the relative use
fulness of the special and dual-pur-
pose breeds is still debatable and so
long as this remains true we are
probably safe in concluding that
either will be found profitable TO the
man who handles them intelligently
The writer believes in the special
purpose breeds for the man who will
give them special and intelligent at
tention. He believes the man who
keeps a dozen cattle on his farm and
receives his profits from say 10 OF
these from the beef they make and
from the other two from the milk
they give. can not afford TO have any
thing but the best beef breed animals
He can probably find two fairly good
dairy cows out OF a dozen OF any
breed; but IL he can not. we think he
might better get two good dairy COVE
from some other source than reduce
the quality of the other 10 cattle
kept for beef making On the other
hand, we believe the dairyman can
better afford to sacrifice the bull
calves and the old worn-out cows OF
special dairy breed for what they
VIII bring, than TO milk a dual-pur-
pose breed, in which a smaller per
cent OF the heifers produced will h,
oil nigh dairy efficiency. II, howeve~,
any one wishes TO imnreve the native
sieck and docs no. wish to .tt,
special attention to either dairy or
beef PRODUCTION and does not exne
TO furnish an abundance OF feed "a
his cattle. the dual-purpose breeds
will he found serviceable. Because
OF these con .itions in the South. tac
dual-purpose cattle will probably lie
found to I'll a useful purpose :or
many years 10 come
The needs OF the South today are
more cattle IN every farm. A fov
more cattle OF better quality to cor
sumo the grass and feeds that arc
now going to waste and to eat the
larger Quantities of feeds which must
be produced under a proper system
or crop rotation. The dual-purpose
breeds are useful as step to special
cattle husbandry and their smaller
size and other excellent qualities
make them especially suitable for
present Southern conditions.
In our next article we shall con.
trast and illustrate the differences In
the dairy and beef types or forms and
then In subsequent articles give n
brief description of all the lead,ng
breeds of cattle.

THE SCAFFOLD BROKE
E. NJ. Parney and George Taylor
Had Bad Fall

Last Thursday afternoon, just after
the Banner had gone TO press, an acci-
dent happened that came very close TO
costing two men their lives. + M. Par
ney and George Taylor were working on
scaffold in the Office recently vacated
by the Belding Gas Co, when the nails
pulled out of shaky board used in the
construction of the scaffold and let them
both fall distance of about eight feet
OH to the hard floor below.
One of Mr.. Taylor's heels was badly
broken and has been placed in a plaster
cast and the other was put out of joint.
He will be laid up for several weeks.
Mr.. Parney was so badly bruised up
that he was unable TO get out for a week,
the hard fall causing semi-paralysis
in his leg and arms. They were engag-
ed in fitting up the Office for down
town office for +. +. Chapple q Co.
when the accident occurred.

who has ably and fittingly repre-

an eloquent, forceful, consistent cham

man is Gov. +. w. Hoch.
Mr.. Hoch will lecture at the Nj. f.

CRIMINAL CASES
WERE LIGHT
In lonia County During Past
Six Months In Contrast
With a Year Ago
REMARKABLE SHOWING
Prosecuting Attorney Sheldon Makes
Good Report-Local Option
Works Finely

Prosecuting Attorney Sheldon has
compiled his semi-annual report of
county police court business for the six
months ending December 81, 1909.
During this period there have been
l3S cases tried with no acquittals.
Criminal business has been light; in
fact all court business has been light
according to the report of the prose-
cutor.
The following cases constitute the
bulk of the report: Cruelty TO animals,
l; assault and battery, 8; fast auto driv-
ing, 2; carrying concealed weapons, 2;
defrauding hotel keeper, 5; using indie
cent language, 81 larceny, 4; larceny
from dwelling house, |; larceny from
IN Office, /; assault with intent 10 kill,
=; jumping railroad train, l. bastardy,
]; assault with intent to rape, l; VIOLA
ton local option law, 8; non-support,
.; drunk, 30; vagrancy, Z, disorderly, %.
Among theimportant cases have been
he People VS.. Albert Geldorf, assault
with intent to KILL in which Geldorf
was sentenced To TO 10 years in prison;
the VIM. Hubbard assault case, Hub
bard now awaiting sentence which was
delayed on account of his illness; w.
Rose, sentenced to to 10 years for at
tempted rape; Geo. Lucas sentenced
10 > years for larceny from dwelling;
George Lawton TO 5 years for larceny
from an Office.
The most remarkable feature of the
report is the showing made i'm the ar
rests for drunkenness, together with
comparison of the past six months with
the corresponding six months of the
year 1905.
The last six months in 1905 before
local option there were "a prosecutions
for drunkenness at net cost to the
county of S720. During the last six
months of 1909 under local option there
were 30 arrests for drunkenness at
net cost to the county of $3.50, showing
a difference in favor of 1909 of S621.30.
Mr. Sheldon's report shows the usual
thoroughness and efficiency in caring
for the county's criminal business
which has characterized the work of
the official since he has been in office.
