Second Officer ,htoller Tells Different Story Be-
 for Senate Committee.
WANTS TO BE CAPTAIN
Fifth Officer Tells How He Rescued Mrs. Henry E. Harris and
 Others.

Washington, April 24-While J. Bruce Ismay wore becoming air of injured innocence, the senior sur viving officer of the Titanic today painted picture of the six foot managing director of the White Star Line bundled against his will into a life boat by burly chief officer who would brook no resistance, even rom an athlete like Ismay.
 This story was told to the Senate subcommittee by Second Officer Lightooler. Lightooler is still in Is- mays employ and hopes some day to be captain. Lightooler also shouldered all the responsibility for the Yamsi dispatches demanding %hat the Cedric he held until Ismay could sail on her. Tsmay, he said, was in such condition that he prac- tically had to be ordered to send these telegrams.
 Judging by the pleased expression on Ismay's face while this narrative was being related, Mr. Lightooler's aspirations as to captaincy bid fair to be realized.
 The ol y man who could verify the story of driving poor Ismay into the collapsible boat is the chief of ficer Wilde, who is now at the bot tom of the Atlantic with the rest of the ship, with which he gallantly went down.
 Doctor Will Verify
 Lightooler was sorry, but he did not know who told him the story He said the Carpathia's doctor would verify his statement that Ismay was in pitiable condition on ,he Car pathia and kept crying, "I shopId have gone down with the ship, there were women on her.
 This belated statement, according to Ligh*p poler, rendered Ibmay so helpless mentally that Lightooler found it easy to take the initiative in  the matter of trying to hold the Cedric. Ismay sent all the dispatch- es, however. and his employees did not know what they coltained.
 Lightcoler volunteered 10th state- ments. The fact that had been the first to suggest hold the Ced- ric he communicated to e commit tee and asked that he b given an opportunity to make the statement about 1t.
 The Lightooler story was the chef developments in the hearing today. It came late in the afternoon, after Fifth Officer Lowe, who told of lay ing on his oars in an empty boat for more than an hour, waiting till the cries from the mass of humanity in

THE DISADVANTAGES OF CROSS
BREEDING.
Clemson Extension Work - Article
Xxx.

xxx.
The modern breeds Of pure bred live
stock are the results Of long years
of hard work and study by the best
breeders Of the world. The young
est Of these breeds is now many years
old, while the oldest were being bred
pure before this county was settled.
Live stock breeding Is both a science
and an art. and to develop new
breed Is not a matter Of a few years
work. but is the work of several gem
erations.
One of the principles upon which
live stock breeding is based is That
like tends to beget like" When two
pure breeds Of the same breed are
r,ated, we expect the offspring to be
like its parents; because there is,
back of each Of these parents, a long
line of pure blood. When two
pure breeds not Of the same breed
are mated, there at once takes place
battle Of breeds" and the Off
spring will be like that parent whose
blood is the strongest. When, there
fore. two old breeds. as Tamworth
and Berkshire. or Jersey or Holstein,
are mated. there is brought into con-
fiict bloods or influences that have
taken centuries to reach their pres
ent state of perfection.
In the hands OF experienced breed
ers cross breeding was sometimes
used to advantage in the formation of
new breeds; but in the hands Of in
experienced breeders II Is most
dangerous practice. The first cross
sometimes Is good; but after that
such breeding is very uncertain, be-
cause the offspring will depend up
on whichever Of its bloods gets the
mastery. Then. too. II sometimes oc-
ours that the good blood will bal
ance each other. and there will out
crop some bad character that has
been held i'm check ever since the
breed began.
Because OF this uncertainty of
breeding. cross bred" sire should
never be used nor any cross-bred fe-
males kept for breeding, except where
a pure bred Is at the head OF the
herd. For this reason a cross
can never bring more on the market
than IL Is worth for meat; and the
farmer who breeds such loses the
chance of selling his best animals at
'pure-bred" prices. IT, for no other
reason than this. the farmer should
hesitate to cross breed.
But cross breeding must not be
confused with grading" BY grad
ing Is meant the mating of a pure
bred with scrub or with an ami
NAL with no or very little pure blood.
This can be done with perfect safety.
because the power Is all on one side
and the result Is sure. A pure-bred
Angus bull mated with scrub cows
will get over so per cent OF his calves
pure. black. and hornless.-so much
power has the pure blood over the
mixed blood. There is no better way
for the young breeder to begin than
with grade herd and pure bred
sire. As his experience grows. so the
purity Of the blood of his herd in
crease. and in few years he will find
himself In possession of a herd that,
for all practical purposes. is as prof.
table as pure bred, and moreover
he has learned how to care for a pure
bred.
