The law prescribes that all male citi-

AS this is optional with the individual,

be neglected on account of the UMPIRE

Lansdale, vice-president of the com

recent convention of field managers,
said:

DENLY trucks are now giving satisfae-

Our trucks are now sold in prac.

Business and Finances

Events of the past few weeks have
again emphasized the fact that spir-
tied stock exchange trading by the
public is greatly restricted, If not en-
tirely prohibited, in times of strained
international relationship. So often
have the assurances of settlement of
grave international problems been
given to the American public that they
have grown skeptical of these So
called solutions, and of late they have
been drawing their own conclusions
from the course of events. This
weeks market has been very narrow
and restricted, the sound of diplo-
matte rumblings having reached Wall
Street even before the official an
nouncements from Washington indi-
eating the Administration displeas-
ure with Germany's explanation of
her submarine policy.
Should break with that country
be the inevitable sequel to the pres
ent controversy, it is difficult to see
how the course of business, either in
the investment or the industrial sec
tons. could be so adversely affected.

be subjected to series of artificial
flurries in the price of it's leaders"

1t is preposterous to assume either
that the United States will be invaded
by European army at this time, or
that we should send American troops
to the European battle-helds. The
on''' result of broken diplomatic rela-
tionships would be ain emphasis upon
the preparedness propaganda, and the
increase in the demand for the instru-
ments of projection, which are guns
and ammunition When we consider
the tremendous increase in the mater
ial wealth of the United States in
recent years. the problem of our being
able to secure these things in increas-
ing quantity becomes one of minor

after that a roaring. We waited

spots were seen breaking through the

spots were the two French aviatOrs.
They grew bigger as they fell. A mo-

IS RIGHT TO ANNOY SACRED?
How Jersey City Courts, by Recent
Decision, Allow Property Owners
to Exalt Ugliness.

The sacred right of the property
holder to make himself a public nui-
sance Is reafirmed by the decision of
the New Jersey supreme court, says
the New York Tribune. It appears
that this right was menaced by a stat
ute which made it unlawful to dis
figure with advertisements the Pali-
Sades along the Hudson. The statute
Is found to be unconstitutional on the
ground that the legislator may deprive
the owner Of the right to use his land
for such purpose only when the signs
are a menace to public health or NOR
ais.
This kind of individual liberty is
one Of the unfortunate limitations un-
der which our whole system labOrs.
The public has other interests to con-
serve besides those of health, safety
and morality. 1t is a mark Of indif-
ference to beauty bordering on barbar-
ism that esthetlc considerations re-
ceive so little recognition in the eye
of the law. The zealousness with which
the courts are bound to protect the in
dividual in the use Of that which is his
own permits the defacing Of our scenes
of natural beauty with every cOnceiv-
able form of hideousnesS.
Something more than a right Of
property is invaded when one indI-
vidual may ruin for millions of people
the beauty of piece of natures handi-
work.

worked a speedy transformation in the
market. 1t placed Wisconsin, Illinois
and other states on the dairy map and
opened up the channels of export to
their cheese and butter. Later came
the cream separator, which was great
factor in the development of the dairy
business. Since that time dairying has
been growing very rapidly.
Points for the Dairyman.
Any man to make success in the
dairy business should bear in mind
these points
1. Strict regularity in feeding and
milking.
2. Good permanent pastures.
3. At least one silo for winter feed
ing and one with smaller capacity for
summer feeding.
4. Cows that will give at least 1000
pounds of milk or 200 pounds of butter
in year.
8. Plenty of roughage; and when
pastures fail some concentrates, as cot
tonseed meal and gluten feeds.
6. Pure water. High producing cows
must have large quantities of water. 1t
is we'll said that 1t is cheaper to warm
ice cold water with tank heater than
to allow the COW to warm it with 30
cent corn. The water tank should be
in cozy, sheltered, sunny place.
z. Clean and well ventilated barns
and healthy cows. Dark, damp, steamy
poorly ventilated barns are ideal places
for the development and spread of
tuberculosis. Remedy: 1. Test the
COWS with the tuberculfn test. 2. Gut
new windows and let in an abundance
of sunlight. 8. Provide proper ventila-
ton.
S. Quietness and kindness. Loud
talking, swearing and rough handling
are not permitted in a well-managed
dairy.
The average dairy cow of this coun-
try produces something like $500
pounds Of milk In a year and approx
mately $50 to 100 pounds of butterfat.
