no INCREASE DAIRY HERDS

Efforts looking towrad the getting
of more good cattle into the farm
ing areas Of Oklahoma are being
pushed by the commercial organiza-
tions or the state. The impetus that
has been given to dairying and cheese
making is noticeable and the results
are said to be such as to encourage
farmers in the vicinity Of these en-
terprises to increase their herds.
At meeting held in Enid recent
ly It was decided by the farmers who
attended TO secure car load OF fine
dairy cattle TO be used as abject les
sons. showing the advantages Of pure
bred cattle over grades for the pro-
duction OF milk and butter fat The
cows will be distributed over the
county and record kept OF their
other cows in several herds. It Is
expected that the showing will be
an argument for better cattle in the
dairy herds.

fy the rapacity of an unnatural
mother. 1t is his attempt 20 overthrow
the conspiracy and reunite two young
lovers that furnishes the action Of the
closely knit plot and makes the play
one of the most vitally important

intensely dramatic features of the play
