Florence Sarcastic of the Marks
Ahtanwn Herd Hangs Up New
Figures for Valley
TWENTY-SIX POUNDS IN
TEST OF SEVEN DAYS
Results From Other Animals
Which Have Been Tested Tell
the Story of Dairy Develop
ment in This Section

Twenty-six and a. tenth pounds of
butter fat in seven days is the yield of
Florence Sarcastic. five-year-old
Holstein COW on the Ahtanum ranch
of j. p. and e. b. Marks. Tho best
previous mark for seven days was
ease pounds by three-year-old heif-
er of the Marks herd. but that figure
is shattered. The worlds record for
seven days is still some distance ahead
of the best Yakima figures, but the
Herald, which said a year two ago
that the worlds record will some day
be held here, Is more convinced than
ever OF tho truth of its statement,
now that Florence Sarcastic has car
ried the local figures into the first
rank in the United States.
Ninety Pounds OF Milk Daily
The cow is unde going a thirty day
test and is steadily increasing her
yield of butter fat as the test contin-
ues. 1t may be that before the thirty
days have expired she will hang up
new figures even for herself. She is
yielding milk at the rate OF ninety
pounds a day and Is running along so
evenly and smoothly in her work that
Messrs. Davis and Bishop, Holstein
breeders, who saw her q few days
ago. were both convinced that she was
not producing at all near to the limit
of her capacity.
More satisfactory. perhaps. than the
work of the individual COW Is the fact
that of eight animals which have
been under the test, four have exceed
ed the twenty-pound mark for seven
days and within the year ten of tho
Marks cows have gone above that
figure. One of the animals tested, a
yearling, just twenty-three months
old, made record of fifteen pounds.
Speaking of the work OF Mrs. Sar-
castle, E. b. Marks saidi Part of the
problem Is in having the COW and the
other part Is in having a man who
, understands and is willing to assist
according to the dictates of his best
judgment. In Florence I had the
Icow and In Jess Melton had the man.
| was absent for few days and the
animal was under his care. When L
returned she was doing better than
when L left. He certainly did good
work"
c. II. Dills Of Outlook, q graduate
OF the Washington State college, has
been doing the testing.
Mr.. Marks reports q splendid de-
mand for young stock and says that
Holstein Home has disposed of large
number of young male animals and
several females. This. with the sue
cess of the cows under the test, has
been very pleasing to him.

Governor Brady while he still was
governor and was prepared to be re-

Hawley was making so much money

AN OBJECT LESSON
Nezperce Farmers and Towns
people Alive to Their Interests.
OPPORTUNITY FOR GOOD HERE
Put Forth One Halt Of Efforts in
Exploiting the Country.

The other day over in Nezperce.
that town which does things, the
commercial club was reorganized.
The old club, we presume, was Just
about the same as you find in most
towns, had lost its attraction and
drifted into state Of lethargy. A
few of the live men had held the or
ganizatioh together so that when
matter come up for consideration an
answer could be given by the COM
mercial club after the town had been
drummed over for business men to
attend q meeting. Now it seems they
have taken on new life and intend
doing things. A meeting was held
the other night; enthusiasm run high.
The fellow with his petty jealousy and
selfshness must have been sit down
on. All were of one opinion. Some
thing had to be DONE A sum equal
to $4,000 was subscribed for the first
years work and it is said this amount
will be increased to $4,000 before the
next meeting. Between $50 and 200
people signified their intention of
becoming members of the new organi-
zation and many of these were ranch
chers who own broad acres over in
Lewis county. And why not the
farmers? Getting right down to bed
rock and laying aside our modesty,
who will reap a greater benefit from
the the development Of a community
than the owners of the land? The
development of some particular Sec
ton, the bringing of new people to a
territory who seek lands and homes
enhances the farm values in far
greater per cent than it does the town
property. Every farmer, for selfish
reasons if for no others, should be a
booster. He should boost his country
continually and effectively and join
with his less fortunate brothers in the
towns who are Just as anxious to see
the country go forward. Our interests
are mutual. During the past three
weeks many OF these who should be
looked upon as the men to do things,
have been busy on the wet or dry
side working for what they considered
right and have put forth every effort
to win for the particular cause which
they supported. The thought occurs
to the writer that if one half this
effort was put forth by these men, if
one half the earnestness of purpose
was applied to boosting this communi-
ty, the results would be marvellous.
In fact prosperity would be ours in
such abundance that we might forget
the wet or dry issue for a while if not
permanently.
Vets or drys, show you have the
interest Of your community at heart,
show your patriotism by doing some
thing of substantial nature for the
country which supports you.
