The dairy COW, il able to express
herself in way which the human
family would comprehend, might well
lay claim to being mans best friend
She might establish such claim by
calling attention to the fact that from
her product and from her carcass man
manufactures more of the necessities
of life than from any other similar
source. She furnishes these necessi-
ties to him from infancy until such
a time as temporal things are no long
er associated with his existence. and
she does it ungrudgingly and constant
ly.
In addition to contributing to mans
necessity and his pleasure, the pros
persty of an agricultural community
is more closely identified with her
than with any other Of the domestic
animals. The horse is quite essential
in til iug the soil. but where necessity
requires it the sturdy son Of the COW
can take his place, as he has done In
every agricultural section ON earth.
The horse can only furnish labor and
can only return profit to his owner
when conditions are right for return
ing satisfactory grain crops. 1t is a
well known fact that the dairy COW is
the salvation of the farmer in times
Of Door crops as she is able to convert
the rough crops which are never to
tai failure, into dairy products which
always have a cash value.
In addition to this she furnishes
skim milk and butter milk for the
calves, pigs and poultry and fertility
for the soil, without which farm be-
comes less valuable each year and the
whole country less prosperous.
The elimination Of the dairy COW
would necessitate an almost revolu-
tionary re-adjustment Of mans tastes
AND requirements. 1t would mean un-
told suffering and hardship. OfcoSrse
she will not be dispensed with hut her
value can perhaps best be appreciated
BY contemplating such loss
She will cOntinuetO be mans best
friend as long as the human family
exists and will keep on supplying him
with his greatest needs just As she has
done throgh all the ages.

brought to bear on behalf OF the &C

Mrs. Roydan Douglas. president OF

we have undertaken to assist Miss
she says. because we
believe that there should not be two
different standards OF conduct for
men and women-one for men and
another for women.
I'VE believe that women should
have the benefit of the 'unwritten
law as well as men.
Recently q man In New Orleans
who found that his home mad been
desecrated by another man. killed
that other man. The slayer was per-
arrested. but was quickly
freed at the preliminary hearing. Aft.
erwards he was indicted by the grand
Jury. which body also quickly freed
him. II was not stated that the 'un-
written law had given him his free
dom. but of course II was that code.
I'VE do not condone immortality,
and we are not aiding Miss McLaugh-
lin because of her personality. As

army OF women who are battling for
her have ever seen her. But behind
1t all Is a great principle OF tremendu-
