Some Jersey Notes.

1t is becoming we'll known, and
long way from home, that Weldon
and her sister town, Leroy, has
some of the very best Jersey cattle
in the central west. OF the fifty
Jersey COWS that in yearly authen-
ticated tests have made over 700
pounds estimated butter, two of
them, one of which is the champion
producing Jersey of the state, are
owned in Weldon and one in Leroy.
In the great Marsh contest held in
Iowa two Jersey heifers owned by
Z. S. and J. A. Buffum at Leroy
are credited with more butter fat
than any Jersey COWS entered in the
contest and had the test been for
the economic production of butter
fat which is the only fair and reason
able way OF conducting dairy test
Of that kind. there can be no doubt
but that they would have won over
all breeds. This community is not
famed for phenomenal COWS alone.
l.. G. Jamison's Jersey Sire, Prince
Noel 7414O is destined to go down
in Jersey history as one of the re-
nowned sires Of the breed. He is
the first and so far the only Jersey
sire to qualify for the Register of
Merit that was ever bred or owned
in the state of Iowa. The American
Jersey Cattle Club admits to it's
Register Of Merit any sire that has
three or more daughters entered in
the advanced register. Prince Noel
has six daughters that have qualified
for the Register of Merit, although
but three of them have yet finished
their years test. One of these,
owned by James I. Wade was started
when but two years, ten months and
half old and in the year produced
166 pounds more butter fat than
the minimum requirement at her
age, a truly phenomenal record
when we consider the intense heat
of last summer and the extreme
cold the following winter. Another
Prince Noel helfer that is doing
things is Capitola of Weldon 25S942,
owned by G. w. Hail. who sent her
last summer to the Ames experiment
station to be given a yearly official
test. She was started on her test
when but mere little baby COW,
being just / year and 10 months old
the day she was started, and al
though the amount required for
yearling to qualify for advanced
registry is the same as a two year
old, this seemed to make no differ
ence to her as she qualified several
weeks ago and still has some time
to sweeten her record in before the
end of her years test. Another of
these heifers was also sent by Mr..
Jamison to the Ames station last
fall to be given a test. She was
started when a little over two years
old and is making an enormous
yield. Prof. H. H. kildee, Supt. of
the State Dairy Farm, says she is
making the greatest record ever
made at the Iowa station by 2
year old Jersey cow-Weldon
American.

No kidney ailment is unimportant
Don't overlook the slightest back
ache or urinary irregularity. Nature
may be warning you of approaching
dropsy, gravel or Bright's disease
Kidney disease is seldom fatal if
treated in time, but neglect may pave
the way. Don't neglect lame, or
aching back another day. Don't lg-
more dizzy spells, irregular or dis
collored urine, headaches, WEAKNESS
or depression. If you feel you need
kidney help begin using the reliable
time-tried remedy, Doan's Kidney
Pills. For so years, Doan's have
been found effective. Endorse by
Leon people ..,..
Mrs. F. M. Coder, Eleventh St.,

WA|TES|DE HAS BIG
CROP OF APPLES

Fred Whiteside is busily getting
his Wealthy apples gathered, packed
and shipped. He will have 5000
boxes of that variety, and they are
being gathered this early to prevent
them falling from the trees, as the
Wealthy is inclined to do when ripe
ness approaches. The 5000 boxes
represent some apples, but only a
bagatelle compared with the McIn.
tcsh Red crop he is preparing to
harvest. Mr.. Whiteside estimates
his Mcintosh crop at $4,000 boxes
and the fruit was never finer or in
better condition than this year. He
will soon have a small army of pick
ers and packers at work on the Nc
Intoshes, which would fill a train OF
refrigerator cars about a half mile
long. Incidentally Mr.. Whiteside
will distribute not little money for
labor and materials before he gets
the apples aboard the trains. He
probably gets better rate on boxes
than the man who buys them in
small quantities, but even at that
the boxes he will use this year will
cost several thousand dollars, and
there will be enough people employed
in getting the fruit off the trees and
packing it to make a good sized
daily pay roll.-Kalispell Inter Lake
