That Cow Contest.

Don Randall was the successful high
school student in the COW contest which
has been on among the members of the
agricultural class of the Salem high
school, The contest has been carried
on for the purpose of giving the stu
dents a practical knowledge of dairy
ing and caring for milk
The cow entered by Mr.. Randall
made an average of 5.S and at one time
went as high as GA. A COW entered by
Isola Smith did not test as high but
gave greater amount of milk, the
milk testing from 5 to 5.4 Another
animal entered by William Newmeyer,
came in fresh during the race and av'
eraged five gallons of milk daily, which
tested As.
The products of Salem dairies were
also tested by the students. While the
contest has been completed, Professor
Gilmore, who has the work in charge,
says that the students will be glad to
test milk for any person at any time
for the practical value of the work.

only way to fill the vacancy would be
by a special election.

test had been made against calling a
special election in Rock Island county
owing to the great expense which such
an election would entail and that
therefore he would not cali - special

The vacancy will not be filled,
therefore, until another Judge is elect-
ed in due course of time.
