pasture south of town, in hour of

platform. Charged with mental and
physical energy and magnetism, he
draws his audiences as only a hui
man magnet can do. He is a dra-
matte, thrilling orator one moment,
and a calm reasoner the next. A
most convincing hurler of moral
truths, because he knows what he is
talking about. Although a college
graduate, he has had the experience
of the man with the dinner pail also
while he paid his own way through
college by vacation efforts. When a
mere boy he had the ambition to be-
come an orator and, as always hap
pens, his schoolmates laughed at his

many years later he returned to the
scene of his boyhood ambitions and
the laughing stopped. He had simp-
ly made good. His lectures are char
acterized as full of courage and vi

IOWA HOLSTEINS TO HAWAII.
J. P. Cundell, of Kamuela, Hawaii,
Buys Is Head From Black
Hawk and Bremen Co.
Breeders.

Just as an indication Of the de-
mand for dairy cattle that is being
felt all through the country. four
breeders of Holsteins in Black Hawk
and Bremen counties, Iowa, three Of
them just practical farmers, the 9TH
er an extensive breeder and practi-
cal farmer also, sold Is registered
Holsteins to go to the Hawaiian
Islands.
These cattle were purchased by j.
P. Cundell, manager of 100, 000-acre
ranch in Hawaii which heretofore
has been devoted largely to the pro-
duction of beef cattle. MIR. Cum
dell, like a great many others, has
discovered the advantages and prof
its to be had from dairying and Is
turning his attention to that phase
of agriculture.
Part of the cows will be kept for
his own use at home: some Of the
bulls will be placed on adjoining
ranches with the idea Of improving
the cattle that are now producing
milk: some of the other COWS will
go to the agricultural college and
some to men who produce milk for
trade in Honolulu and other centres.
Il is needless to say that the prices
paid for this stock were thoroughly
satisfactory to the sellers and at the
same time the buyer was forced to
visit many herds before hc could
find enough cattle to supply his
needs. In the majority OF cases
nearly everything was sold
This indicates that there never
was stronger demand for dairy cat
tie than this year. Not only females
and all the bulls, bat many unborn
calves are sold or contracted for.

Certainly the people are awakening
to an interest and demand for dairy
stock and there is no danger of the
business being overdone.
The four breeders mentioned at
the beginning are all subscribers OF
Kimballs Dairy Farmer and twice
each month it comes to them brim
full of interesting reading matter
pertaining to their business. KIM
balls Dairy Farmer is edited by men
who own and operate their own
dairy farms and who are breeders of
dairy cattle. 1t covers all general
farm topics but specializes on the
dairy end of the business and is very
valuable to the farmer who milks
cows. Ask the publisher of this pa
