There are many essentials for an

he must be sire. A breeder, II you

Granted this condition. there are
many other important features. He
must possess character as indicated
by bold carriage, strong front and a
"sirey" look. His face should be bold,
strong and masculine.
These characteristics are to be ia
ken as indicative of ability to pro-
duce these characteristics in his on

However, these characteristics must
be good ones; for a sire that possesses
masculinity and character, strong abil

Weights and Measures.

There is widespread demand for
Standardization Of weighing ma
chimes. and s)me effective wsy To
compel honest end accurate weights
and measures. for it is becoming
generally known that the people
have been Systematically cheated in
short weights and measures.
At the meeting recently of the ma
tional association of scale experts ut
Chicago the declaration was made
that the people of this country lose
more than a million dollars annually
by short weights 1t is not possible
to approximate the loss they sustain
in short measure. as the rascals have
a greater latitude and greater-op-
portunities to cheat in measures than
they do in weights. o.. g..
1t is charged that there ere GER
tain factories which turn out short
weight scales. They guarantee that
they will meet the requirements OF
the dishonest merchant who relies
on short weights to make large pro-
fits. 1t has developed that As per
cent Of the scales in Minnesota have
been found t. be under weight, and
even after official inspe ction has been
going on the cheaters have succeeded
in using l3 per cent in short weight
scales.
What the people want is some kind
of laws End regulations that will
protect them from the thieves who
steal their money in short weights
and measures, and this is what every
honest man in the country wants. -
