month than the average American
cow produces in year!
The Associated Press flashed the
news fro;a ocean tC ocean, and star
tied dairymen and fanciers read it
and asked, Who is Jones?' Soon
they began to arrive at Jones's farm,
doubtful! and suspicious. They de-
manded re-test. thinking that some
drug had been used to stimulate the
COW, or that some fraud had been
perpetra.ed. 1T wasn't possible, "
they said.
Go as far as you like said
Jones affably
They stationed guard about
Pontiac Lass day and night. and in a
few days all doubts were dissipated.
Pontiac Lass calmly took the re-
naming world records in turn-6O
days, more than 308 pounds of but
ter; 90 days, more than 42o pounds;
100 days. more than 465 pounds.
Other animals in the herd broke 9th.
er records for cows of various ages.
A new era dawned for Frank
Jones and his family. The moment
that Pontiac Lass became the cham
pion the value of the whole herd, by
this tine about sixty COWS, appreci-
ated enormously. Jones became
wealthy overnight. Dairymen flock.
ed to the farm eager to buy animals
akin to the worlds greatest COW.
When the neighbors read in news
paper that Jones had sold cow for
SIC. 900 they opened their eyes; and
when a bull went few days later
for 1000 they were almost para
lyzed. They even began to entertain
the idea that the raising of fancy
livestock might be good business
for them to engage in. One of them
leaned over Jones's fence and in
quired the price of a spotted calf that
poked an inquisitive nose through
the boards.
Il don't care much about selling
her." Jones replied; but if do the
price will be not less than $40, 200"
They don't speak slightingly Of
Frank Jones in that locality nova
days when they see his automobile
pass. He has lao animals. valued
at considerably more than $3.50, 600.
Pontiac Lass still retains the cham
pionship.
Jones scows are bovine aristocrats.
Their lives are heavily insured, and
at the first sign of illness a veterin-
arian hastens to attend them. AL
most any one in the herd is worth as
much as house and lot. On the
hilltop stands fine mansion, one of
the fruits of Frank Jones's mad
whim."
To illustrate how the value of the
herd leaped when Pontiac Lass gain
ed the championship, we may cite
the case of her first calf, born sey-
eral years before she became famous,
and sold by Jones for $3.50. With
the arrival Of universal honors, he
bitterly regretted that he had sold
the calf, and the buyers were cor
respondipgly jubilant.
Jones resolved to regain the ami
NAL at any cost. His opportunity
occurred when the calf, by this time
fuh-grown, was put up at auction.
Its value vas recognized snd bid

ding was brisk, but Jones raised
every offer. The bids advanced to
to three. FIVE, ten fifteen thousand
dollars, and at that figure the son OF
Pontiac Lass again became the prop
erty of Frank Jones and went hack
to live at Spring Farm.

.BOYETT URGES A
LARGE NUNBERO
BOYS IN CLUBS

Demonstration W. J. Boyett, of this
county, who has taken charge of the
local work to relieve Demonstrator j.
6. Oliver in his fight on the boil wee
vii, urges all of the boys in the county
to identify themselves at once with
the four-crop club. He states that a
minimum membership of % is neces-
sary to compete for the prizes, and in
sists that the boys advise him imme-
diately of their determination to go
into the club, rather than wait unth
they are called upon personally.
Mr.. Boyett plans to visit all of the
schools in the county before Decem-
Der 1st, carrying on the work which
be has set his heart upon, and to give
valuable service. His record in Ran
oolph county was continual state
ment of great achievements.
1t is time that oats were being
planted, according to Mr.. Boyett. The
cour-crop club consists OF planting
oats, corn, cotton and another cro,
of peas to take the place of the oats.
Mr.. Boyett attended the exercises
at Shiloh school this afternoon, in the
nature of a school fair. Miss Rowena
Long, the new home extension agent
for the county, was present; Miss Bes-
sic Wood, the state agent, attended,
and it is the old school of E. j. Nc
Math, who will assume his duties as
county school commissioner on Jan
uary 1st, 1917.

MORE: VICTORIES
IN RUMANIA LAND
(By Associated Press.)

The Rumanians have suffered fur
iher reverses at the hands of Won
Falkenhayne's invading forces, ac-
cording to German announcement, the
Teutonic forces on yesterday in bay
onet charge capturing the summit of
Hungul mountain on the Moldavian
frontier of Rumania, penetrated Ru-
manian positions in the Predeal re-
gion and scored advances south OF
Rothenthurn Pass. According to the
Berlin statement, the Teutons took
more than 2,100 Rumanian prisoners
Berlin said the Rumanians along the
northern part of the Moldavian boun-
dary were withstanding the Teutonic
attack.
London reported a further British
success last night in renewed attacks
on the Ancre front, while Berlin de
cared that British attacks in this re-
glon last night failed and recorded
the repulse of an assault on the
Somme front, west of Lesare, and de-
clared the British were forming back
along the Flore-Thilly road. Berlin
also reported the repulse of Entente
attacks in Macedonia.
