BREEDING FOR MILK SUPPLY
Breeds Improve the Thing for Which
They Are seIeeted-Germany
Makes Increase In Yield.

Cattle used to be bred chiefly for
work. Therefore the cows did not
give much milk. Breeds improve the
things for which they are selected. If
cows were used for stepladders we
should by this time have them seven
feet high.
In 1880 the work cows of Germany
gave an average Of pint and half
day. Interest in milk increased, and
by 1900 the average yield was a quart
and half. Breeding went on milk
ward, and in 1910 the German cows
averaged two quarts of milk each per
day. In 1920 three, in 1880 four-and
there the gain stopped for 80 years.

The photograph shows the belle
OF the interesting Samoan village at
the Panama-Pacific international Ex-
position at San Francisco. The struc-
lures in this village, comprising the
native matched huts of the Samoan,
or as they were formerly called, the
Navigator islands, were brought in
tact from the native villages and are
absolutely faithful in all their fea-
lures. There are many native fam
lilies living in the village who for
the ediflcation of visitors perform the
aquatic feats in which the islanders
excel, and dance the rhythmic native
dances. The life Of the people Of the
Pacific ocean is wonderfully illus
trated at the Exposition, and Of all
the races none are more interesting
than the Samoans who exhibit many
traces Of Aryan descent. No Exposi-
ton visitor should fail to see these
unique tribespeople.
