"Iha Best Man."

A few seasons ago. says a prominent
crew coach in Outing. two men were
competing closely for a seat in the
varsity" boat. One day called them
together, and said:
Just now you two men are working
equally we'll in the boat, but one has a
better scholarship standing than the
other, and to me that seems to indicate
that one of you has little more per-
sonal pride than the other
AS matter Of fact, the man who was
not up to the scratch in his work was
q bit the better Of the two, as far as
smoothness in the boat was concerned
I thought the incident might cause him
to pick up in his classes. 1t did not.
When the time came to make a final
selection Of the eight again called the
pair in to see me.
IT'S still hard to decide between you
two. I would just as soon have YOU
throw a coin to decide the winner" I
said.
The man with the poor scholarship
record was the first to speak.
That's all right with me,' he said.
The other man thought for a minute
saw his mouth go tight. Then he
said:
mo, sir, that doesn't suit me. One
OF US must be the best man. / want to
know which. and to know why / am not
the best man."
Some people would probably have
thought that fellow conceited, but not
If they knew what it means for a
youngster to put in months and months

ond man was Of quiet type, but after
he spoke I knew the thing that every
coach Is most anxious to find out-that
he was the kind who would be pulling
hardest when his lungs were feeling
like bursting in that last hard half
mile. You can guess which man got the
place. me man who did not was too
easily satisfied.

WILLARD WINNER
Becomes Heavyweight Champion of the
WUld-Johnson Knocked out
in the 10th Round.

Havana, Cuba, April 5.-Jack John
son, the burly negro, is no longer the
heavyweight champion of the world.
He was laid out by his white opponent,
Jess Willard, in the fight here today, in
the twenty-sixth round.
Both fought viciously from the start.
In the first few rounds Johnson appear
ed to have the best of it, But he then
began to weaken and Willard had the
best of it in most of the rounds.
In the twenty fourth round johnson
drove Willard into the ropes, and it was
thought that he would then deliver a
knockout blow as he did to Jeffries at
Reno. But Willard recovered and land
ed hard blow on Johnson's jaw, and
they clinched.
Willard's blow in the twenty.fourth
round appeared to weaken johnson and
he was not himself in the twenty fifth
round, which went to willard.
In the twenty-sixth round the knock
out, blow on the neck was given by
Willard, and he took thereby the cham
pionship Of the world.
johnson did not fight in his old time
form very many rounds, and it was evi-
dent that dissipation and age had left
their marks and weakened him.

PICKING DAIRY COW
Some Advice Given by Prof. Larson of
the State College on How to
Pick Dairy Cow.

Any old COW will no longer do as a
dairy producer, but she must be an ami
NAL built for that particular kind of
work, otherwise she will be fed at loss.
This idea was urged by Prof. q. Larsen,
of the state college, in dairy train ad-
dress and demonstration at Armour.
In picking dairy COW he suggested
choosing one that "has a form closely
related to the work she has to do" He
said:
~ A dairy COW must have strong
constitution, as indicated by large lung
capacity, full and deep heart girth, -fel-
low, loose skin and clean-cut appear
ance; (2) large and efficient capacity
for holding and digesting food, indicat-
ed by deep, wide and long barrel, and
loose, mellow skin; (3) good blood cir
culation, indicated by large, branching
and long milk veins, large and numer-
Gus milk wells, long and we'll developed
escutcheon and loose, mellow skin; (4)
strong, nervous system, indicated by
healthy, lean and bright appearance, by
prominent, straight, open jointed back
bone and a wide forehead, and (5) large
udder capacity, indicated chiefly by the
fore udder extending we'll forward and
the hind udder attached high between
the thighs. The udder should also be
wide and level. The thighs should be
fat and wide apart, with great width
over hips, pin bones and rump. In ad-
dition to these factors dairy COW
should have symmetry and beauty of
form.
Prof. Larsen pointed out the fact that
South Dakota farmers should engage in
dairying because this state is especially
adapted to that business, because
/. By feeding field crops to dairy
cows about $35 per COW per year can be
saved in labor connected with market.
ing and transportation.
2. The dairy COW preserves the rich
ness of the land by maintaining soil
fertility.
8. Dairying produces human food the
year around. Cows consume in winter
field crops produced during the sum-
mer. Cows should freshen in the fall.
| 4. The dairy COW will change $l.00
worth of Dakota feeds into $500 worth
of produce.

One law passed by the recent session
of the legislature which taxpayers will,
we believe, appreciate, provides for the
publication of an annual statement by
all school districts. Heretofore the peo-
pie have seldom known the condition
of their districts, how much money was
received or how much was spent. There
is no reason why every taxpayer should
not be informed where his money goes
to, and as the school tax is one of the
large items this new provision seems to
be good one. The law requires the
statements to be published in the near
est newspaper to the district.
