out.
The farmers are planting and sowing
alfalfa and they. are anxious 70 learn
of the kind of livestock that will make
the best use Of these products. The
speakers often spoke of the livestock
as machines for converting corn and
alfalfa into products for the market.
The farmers want the machines that
will do this the best under their con-
ditions.
Prof. J. q. Shepperd gave most of
the discussions on sheep, using the
three sheep carried on the train for
illustrating his talk. He called atten-
ton to the fine development Of the
Southdown wether, which he said was
good enough to take prizes at any Of
the livestock shows in the northwest.
1t was the extreme in mutton type.
One Of the sheep was a grade eve
whose grandam was a range eve, on
which two crosses of Southdown blood
had been made. She was so much like
the other Southdown that it would be
difficult to tell that she was not pure
bred. This illustrated well what can
be done in breeding up sheep.
E. J, Thompson, animal husbandman
at the N. D. Experiment station, lee
tured on hogs. He used the two hogs
carried on the train for illustrating the
lard and the bacon type, and laid a
good deal Of emphasis on providing
pasture and at the same time feeding
some grain so as to secure a rapid
growth, which makes 1t possible to get
the pigs narrowed in the spring ready
for market in the fall. o. ....g~
DR.. L. Van Els, veterinarian at the
N. D. Experiment station was with the
train a few days, and gave special at
tention to hog cholera.
w. Fl. Peters. animal husbandman of
the Manitoba Agricultural college, lee
tured most of the time on beef cattle.
With the steer carried on the train
he illustrated the points that make a
good beef animal. He said that one
way to find out what kind Of cattle
to select for beef is to go to a butcher
and find out which the cuts are that
bring the best price. He said that
these are the cuts along the back,
hence the beef animal must have a
wide and well covered back.
John Christianson, farmer and stock
breeder at New Salem, gave most of
his time to talks On dairying; relating
some of his experiences of how wheat
growing put a mortgage on the farm,
and how the cow took it off and made
them well-to-do. He emphasized the

GEM IN NOSE RING

Pet of Baroness von Czern- heusen Arrives = Latest
 Thing In Canine Jewelry

What appeared to be quite the latest
 thing in jewelry for dogs was displayed
 yesterday by the French bulldog of the
 Baroness Karl Czoernig von czernheusen
 when he walked with dignity down the
 gangplank of the Kaiser Franz Josef l.,
 York Herald. He was a proud dog and for good reason, for from his nose shone / ne latest thing in nose rings and from the
 gold setting in the ring there flashed a
 ruby, his favorite gem. Other dogs have
 arrived with their special buffers and val cts. but the baroness French bulldog is the first to wear headlight
 The baroness was formerly Miss Schmidt, of Rachenow, Pa. The Baron. who is accompanying he here. was for merly an attache of the War Office in Vienna, but is now the Secretary General of the Austrian Colonization Society. Another titled American woman who arrived by the same steamship was the Marchesa von Kehende Johanis, of Rome.
 She was formerly Miss Alice Morgan, of New York. Before she left Rome she had an audience with the pope
 Much indignation over the customs pro

Will Measure the
 Quality of Auto Parts

Recently the records of the state of H. linois showed the incorporation of. a com rany under the title American Eniciency Survey of Motor Car Units. then followed weeks in which the new company was forgotten. even by those who had wan- dered and guessed at ths significance Of the corporate title when il was announced. That the officers and others in the com pany have not been idle Is startlinsly ev- ideneed now by the disclosure of the fact that some of the richest. strongest and largest manufacturers of automobile units have accepted the new company at it's full face value. and have taken out memberships in tho new undertaking
 Ne will give only a hint of it's plans and purposes as We understand that the whole
 thing will soon be fully put before the public in d tremendous campaign of na-
 tianal advertising The idea is to make the most comprehensive and exhaustive
 examination and analysis of every indi- vidnal unit Which enters into the build ing of an automobile. such as axles, ra- diatofs, oils. magnetos. carbaretors. lwheels. motors, tires brakes. spark plugs speedometers an so on. In fact. every thing that can affect the quality and serV- Ice of the car and to make complete re- ports on the result of these examinations
 None of the company is even remotely connected with the automobile industry; i the members of their board of expert engineers are absolutely free and dis Interested critics. and are recognized as l the foremost in their line in this coun- try. if not in the whole world
 This marks an important epoch in au- tomobile making and selling and gives

course to himself, than in the final setto, when his slip may involve others.
 The order of cars at the start, which was recently announced as eonsonant with the speed registered in the time trials, putting. the fastest in front, has again been changed. Several of the slower contestants kicked on the pro- vision, claiming it placed them at dis advantage, and even threatened to with draw if the ruling were adhered to. In deference to their wishes the original system of drawing for position was ac- cordingly again put Into effect This, it is stated, is fair to a1l placing a handi- cap on no one save as chance may inn pose. The other method was intended to cut down accidents primarily.
 Final car numbers for the race, it was announced today, would not be given out until the night before the contest and then to entrants only. This is to con found the numerous manufacturers of spurious programmes that annually de- luge spectators on the way to the track with their wares. Not having anything to work on, it is thought they will be unable to ply their nefarious trade this season. In general, special provisions will be made to combat unauthorized vendors of any sort. Visitors to the races there fore. may feel comparatively free from the chance of fraud and deception

Interest in Indianapolis

Prac- tically all of the cars and drivers, with the possible exception of the last batch of foreigners, which does not sail until May g, will be on hand before the middle of the month. SO that soon constant prac- itice work will be in order.
 The elimination trials, scheduled to throw out. 15 of the 45 cars nominated, promise this year to be almost inter- esting as the race itself, a. third of the contestants being slated for the discard. Average speeds of from 80 to 20 miles an hour are predicted for those who stick to the finish. all under that figure being doomed it is stated.
 Naturally, all of the drivers will do their best to stay through the early tests. especially the dark horses, who will be confronted with their first chance to make good This may lead to several accidents.

 The examination itself Is not so form idable as it sounds And the presence of various ailments revealed by examination does not necessarily bar candidates from employment by the company. On tho other hand the information thus ob- tained enables the placing of men where they will be most efficient and can work with minimum discomfort and maximum returns for themselves. For instance, men subject to or suffering from rupture can be given light. suitable employment, and on.
