of Clergymen.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-The 5000
clergymen who last year observed
Child Labor Day are today being
asked TO speak on that subject Sun
day, January &c or Saturday, jan
uary %. For seven years the Nation
al Child Labor Committee has issued
such an appeal and the interest
aroused by the last Child Labor Day
resulted in a general demand for the
passing of the Federal Childrens
Bureau bill in improved child labor
laws in ten of the fourteen states
holding legislative sessions, and an
Increasing tuse: ofTlecture slides and
exhibits about child labor.
The day has never been used as an
appeal for funds and this year spec
ial attention is called TO child labor
in tenement-house- manufacturing.
The National Child Labor Committee
also reminds clergymen that child
laborers become unskilled adult
workers, and the Chicago vice com
mission gives as the second greatest
cause why 10000 girls are sacrificed.

Dairy Department
THE VALUE OF A DAIRY cow.

Three years ago 1 left the employ of
the dairy department at our university
farm and went to Central City, enter
ing into partnership with Mr.. E. w.
Badger in operating dairy farm.
Now, most of us know that great
many of our Nebraska farms are fast
being depleted of their fertility, be-
cause of the continuous cropping of
the soil without livestock. The farm
that Mr.. Badger and l started our
dairy operations upon had been farm
ed under the rental system for twenty
years. and it took ideal weather con-
ditions to produce fair crop on it.
For the past three years we have had
an average of seventy-hve head OF
stock on this farm, and the manure
has been hauled to the fields and
scattered every day; also we have
erected two silos which have been
filled each year and fed out.
Let us glance for moment at the
direct result from these operations;
one field produced the first year eigh
teen bushels of oats. The same field,
after being covered in the fall with
manure, produced the following year
land a dry year, too) thirty-five
bushels of corn. The next year it
was in spring wheat, and last year in
winter wheat it produced twenty nine
bushels per acre.
Another field, which was one of the
most worn out fields on the farm, pro-
duced the first year ten bushels Of
oats per acre; the next year in winter
wheat, with top dressing of manure,
it produced nineteen bushels per acre,
and the following year forty bushels
of corn. I believe that we can con-
servatively say that the fertilizer pro-
duced by our dairy herd on this farm
has increased the yield of grain 25
per cent, and has increased the value
of the farm $40, per acre above the
normal advance.
These things that l have just
enumerated should be placed to the

ing to milk. The reasons for this
are: Poor COWS, long hours. poor &C
commodations for the stock and,
above all, lack of interest. Get good
COWS, have a warm, we'll lighted and
we'll ventilated barn, make the milk
ing a part of the days work, use a
milk sheet and scales, talk about your
breeding operations, get your men
interested, and you will find that you
can not only keep your hired men,
but that you can get your choice OF
men, because you are able to offer
steady employment the year round.
We have just started the Merrick
County Cow Testing Association, and
I feel certain that this will be a potent
factor in the development of the dairy
industry in our locality. We were
able to get enough herds together in

up her value on the Nebraska farm.
They prove that on tenant farms it
would be to the interest of the land
lord as we'll as the renter for the land
lord to aid the renter in establishing
a dairy herd by providing good build
ings for dairy purposes. Under the
right conditions he can we'll afford to
furnish the foundation stock for the
dairy herd; for outside of the actual
increase of his grain returns, he would
make big interest on his Investment
from the added increase in value to
his farm.
Many farmers claim that it is almo
impossible to hire men who are will

the county and out to bring the cost
down to 81. % per COW per year. In
this association we have some pure
bred herds, some high grade herds
and some herds of just common cows
some of the farmers in this associa-
ton have silos and others have not.
I believe that we will get some splen-
did lessons through this association
and that it will be of great worth to
us.

without taking the fertility from the
soil. Land is becoming too high
priced to let the calf follow the COW.
We have got to make the COW do bet.
ter than raise the calf The so-called
"dual- purpose cow has been tried
out and found wanting.
II I we're called upon to name a
dual purpose cow, think that
would hit closest to the mark by
naming a good dairy COW; for she
will not only produce good thrifty
calf on skimmilk, a calf that as
yearling will bring good price on
the market. The dairy COW will go on
year after year producing a profit In
butterfat and each year raise good
calf, and finally after her usefulness
as a producer is gone, when fattened
will bring good price on the market.
I personally would like to see our
animal husbandry department. make
few experiments in feeding out some
dairy-br male calves / think that
they will feed out and dress out very
nicely. In our eastern markets the
dairy-bred veal calves command
high price.
There is a big demand for dairy
stock in this western country at the
present time, and it is just in its in
fancy; it is bound to be still greater.
1t is the duty of our dairymen's as
ISOLATION and our dairy cattle breed
ers a ssociation to assist the man who
is starting in the dairy business and
help him to get what he wants, in
stead of something that someone else
has discarded.
Carload after carload of dairy cattle
are being shipped west, and l am
sorry to say that among these cows
we are getting many of the culls from
the eastern herds. | do not know
that we can stop this entirely; but
we can get together and by means of
cow testing associations weed out the
star boarders, and by the use of first
class dairy sires improve our dairy
herds. Ii we do this it won't be many
years before The eastern dairyman will
come west for his dairy stock.

MANY ARIZONA RACE HORSES
 ARE DOING WELL IN TIE EAST

More horses wintered at the Arizona State Fair Grounds last winter than ever before. There are same half a dozen strings now campaigning in the East.
 Princess Louise, George Nugents (Globe) fast mare has just won the 2:2O trot in 1, 2, 3, order at Marshall town, Iowa UT. Clark's Loe Blossom took sec ond money in the 2:27 trot.
 Charlie Stearns is also in Iowa with Mrs. Porter's fast four year old, Air ault. Al Beasley and Dr. Gurley have their racing strings in the Texas Oklahoma Circut.
 Tom Pollock, the Flagstaff million aire, has Dick Gentry, Birduck, and Highland c racing in the Cedar Val ley Circuit under the direction of Jose Mclaughlin Blanche is the fastest in this string with record of 2:06%
 All of these strings expect to pick up some easy money ih the half mile tracks where a three seconds leeway is given before going up against the big ones.
 Arlie Frost is now at Libertyville with King Dalphne preparing Sidney Ioldman's fast stallion for the Grand Circuit. King Dalphne has record of 2:O7R, but The Horseman reports .aht Arlie worked him out in 2:05k last week.
 Impetuous Palmer, 2O5A spent the winter at the State Fair grounds last winter. He is the fastest four-year-old pacer of 1912, and is owned by l.. c. Kinney, Bushnell, Neb. He is now 1t Columbus, Ohio, being acclimated and prepared to go against the fast ones at Cleveland, Ohio, the first week in July.
 All of these horses are preparing to make strenuous campaigns through the summer and fall, and wind up in a burst of glory at the Arizona State Fair the first week in November. Arizona horses are fast enough and good enough to go against the best of hem at any time and any where.

Crowder had gone by himself he could never have succeeded half so we'll, but he puts himself in with a lot of pretty girls and no wonder the people respond literally. Hurrah for the young la dies.

MOTORISTS WHO LACK THE
 LIGHTS ARE HELD AT PHOENIX

PHOENIX, June 24.-Ancient eggs and spoiled lemons formed the ammunition of the sympathizers of the striking carmen when an attempt was made yesterday morning to op- crate cars on the lines of the Phoe- nix Railway company. For an hour the downtown streets were thronged with crowds who impeded the pro- gress of the cars, hooted the men operating them and indulged in the pastime of pulling the trolley poles from the ovehhead wires. With the exception of two or three minor fistic encounters between men with diverse opinions, there was no serious dis order. But such as it was, there re mained nothing for Manager Mitchell to do but to order the cars back to the barns and abandon the idea of aFempting the maintaining of any thing like a schedule.
 For the most part it was a good
 
 natured crowd, more bent on mis- chief than genuine damage, in which the striking carmen themselves were conspicious by their absence. But three arrests were made throughout the day, one being that of a man, not identified with the carmen, who pulled trolley rope form the over- head wires at First and Washington street at point where there is maze of guy wires, which were threatened with being broken there by precipitating live wires upon the pavement in the midst of the throng assembled at that point. This was the only incident coming under the notice of the police which might have resulted disastrously and the arrest was made for safety's sake.
 When word came up town that cars were being dispatched from the barn, the crowds began gathering oIgreet them. There seems to have been a semi-organization at work
Arizona sentinel and Yuma weekly examiner., 1913-06-26

preparing to greet the cars upon their arrival at First and Washing ton street. AS the motormen stood their ground and started to run over the crossing, a shower of eggs came from every direction. This shower was augmented by an other of lemons that had been lemons too long. One motorman was covered from head to foot with mixture of yolks, whites and shattered shells, but he remained at his post and passed the point of assemblage.
 Hardly has he passed over the switches when a dynamite torpedo,
 such as formerly was employed in announcing the advent of the glori- ous Fourth of July was exploded under the wheels of his car By islanders say that the force of the impact was sufficient to lift the ear into the air. but if it did. the wheels fell back upon the rail and the prog ress of the car was not retarded al- though the motorman lost his hat
 Policeman Duncan gained deserved sympathy and provoked laugh when about year and a half of eggs struck him full on the breast and arm all over the uniform he had received from the cleaners the day before} Policeman Crow received a dainty egg in the left eye and spluttered his way out of sight. Other eggs intended for the men on the cars went wide of there mark and found marks on the opposite side of the street among innocent bystanders "
 These are the interesting incidents attendant upon the futile efforts of the railway company to operate cars
 on the second day of tn strike. No body was injured, no particular dam age was done and the strike condi- tions were not bettered or made worse by reason of them

U. $. FURNISHES THE
 GREATER SHARE 0F II

Special to the Yuma Daily Examiner)
 WASHINGTON, D. C., June 25.-
 The total value of meats and food animals entering international trade is, according to the latest figures of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Com mercel Department of Commerce, ap' proximately 450 million dollars per an mum, of which about onethird is from the United States, and consists chief ly of pork and pork products.
 While the total value of meat pro ducts and food animals exported from the United States in the year which ends this month will be but about 50 million dollars, against approximately 250 million in 1906, this reduced to- tai far exceeds that of any other coun- try. Meats and food animals exported from Argentina in 1912 amounted to but 67 million dollars in value; from Australia, in 1911, 31 million; from New Zealand, 21 million; from Cana da, 14 million; and from Uruguay, II million These six countries-the United States, Argentina. Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Uruguay are the chief meat-exporting countries of the world. It will be seen from these figures that our meat exports are not only larger than those of any other country but actually exceed the aggregate of our five principal rivals. The fall in our exports of meats and food animals, which has characterized recent years, has oc- cured chiefly in beef; pork products, always an important factor in the meat export, shows but a slight re- duction.
 The United States still has, despite the reduction in her live stock in re- cenBears, a large number of food animals than any other country in the world. Of cattle alon, the nun Der in the United States is 56 million, the only country having larger num- Der being India, with 113 million, while  Russia in Europe and Asia has 5 million; Argentin, 29 million, These figures are in round terms and for the latest available year. Of sheep, the United States has 54 million Australia, 92 million; Russia, 85 mll lion; Argentina, 67 million; the United Kingdom, 30 million; India, 26 million Uruguay, 26 million; and New Zea- land, A million Of swine, the United States has 61 million; Russia 13 mil lion; and Germany, 22 million. The total number of animals (includine in this term merely cattle, sheep and hogs) was, at the latest available date, in the United States, 169 million; Rus sia in Europe and Asia, 149 million; India, 40 million; Australia, 104 mil lion; Argentina, 9S million; Germany 51 million; the United Kingdom, 46 million; and France, 39 million.
