The federal department of agrIcul-

WHY PEDIGREES ARE USEFUL
tion and Use of Animals With
Strong Points.

An animal in some ways resembles
a river, which is the result of the COM
bining of many streams. The animal
is the result of the combining of the
blood lines of parents, grandparents,
great-grandparents and so on. If one
of the streams is muddy, though the
rest be clean, the whole river becomes
murky, and likewise one poor ances-
tor will weaken the animal. That is
why pedigrees are kept. They do for
the animal what keeping the muddy
stream from flowing into the river
does for the river. The purebred is
the result of careful selection and use
of the animals with strong points and
just ms careful an elimination of those
that could not add strength or quality.

DARK HORSE MAY
WIN G. 0. P. RACE
REPUBLICAN LEADERS LOOK FOR
PRACTICAL BUSINESS MAN
TO HEAD TICKET.
COLEMAN DU POINT NAMED
AS LIKELY CANDIDATE
tion as SeIf-Made Leader In
Constructive Business.

With the Republican convention on
ly scant twelve weeks away, tho
nest popular topic of conversation in
political circles these days concerns
the G. o. P.'s choice of a candidate
to run against Wilson.
The Republicans will probably 60
back to old principles and look for
candidate who will command the sup
port of the same army of voters who
elected Mckinley, when wave of
patriotic common sense swent the
country, and business men by the
hundreds of thousands marched the
streets demanding a practical govern
pert. IL is Interesting to note that
The name OF General Coleman du Pont,
OF Delaware. has been repeatedly men,
toned recently as the man eminently
qualified for the nomination. To those
who look upon the government as
a big business concern demanding
the supervision of a trained business
man. the name of General du Pont car
ries strong appeal, for there is no
man more qualified to handle the big
problems of today than this same self
made leader in constructive business.
Moreover. both the public and private
record OF General du Pont will stand
up well under the searchlight OF po-
litical opposition.

Coleman du Pont was born in Ken.
tucky and started his working life in
the mines OF the Blue Grass State. He
..ands today as one of the few sue
cossful men who have acquired their
positions by methods that will stand
scrutiny. He has been producer
not stock jobber. He has never an
tagonized any class of people. Capital
and Labor alike admire him.
Without self-advertisement he does
more charity than do most men. He is
an ardent advocate OF good roads and
believes that really perfect system
OF highways will enhance the farmers
income and reduce the cost of living
to the cities. He has built roads and
given them to his state, always with
sound business scheme to perpetuate
them and save them from being
burden to the taxpayers.
He comes from q family more Amer.
lean than most-a family identified
with the building of the nation since
the Revolution. His grandfather was
Thomas Jefferson's most valued per
sonal friend and advisor in the time
S
OF the Republic.
The great Powder Company with
which he was formerly identified has
supplied our government with all its
, powder at a price always named by
our government officials themselves
and never by the company.
Because OF his great executive abil-
ity and high standing In the business
world. some of the shrewdest po-
litical minds in the country consider
him rs being one of the most likely
dark horses" for the Republican
nomination. They point to the fact
that his success in life would elimin.
ate any need for a friendly Colonel
| House, or any other financial influence
standing ever behind the presidential
chair. Nor would he be compelled to
take orders from any man or group OF
men.
Another factor that the supporters OF
General du Pont are pointing to is his
! knowledge of military affairs For
sixteen years he has been identified
with the soldiery of his state and is
thoroughly alive to the necessity for
~ NN'iNSS' iio mas a'So Hdu
practical training in politics, nav
ing been a delegate to number of
State and National conventions. and
serving AS member of the Republican
National committee for many years
1t is the splendid business training
OF General du Pont that is pointing
the way for him to the NOM
nation. For 1t is conceded on all
sides that the biggest problems of this
! country at the close OF the European
war will be business problems, and
there are few men among those men,
toned, who have had his experience
in coping with such huge problems.

ness and as a reorganizer. Coleman
