Legends once well rooted die hard.
Many people believe that Earl Kitch-
ener survived the sinking OF the
Hampshire, and is either a prisoner of
war, or. escaping in a small boat, has
reached some remote part of the
world and is living in anonymous re-
tirement.
The romance gained a fresh lease
Of life when Mrs. Parker, sister of
the great general, publicly announced
at Hastings not long ago her firm be-
lief that her brother was alive and
would one day return.
1t is impossible to argue the matter.
One can only believe or disbelieve. A
measure of credence which business
men attach to the story is to be found
in a letter printed in the Liverpool

that client of theirs wanted to know
what rate could be quoted to cover the

Stockholders OF the Chalmers Mo

ton. What that plan will be can
not be told now, ,altho tentative
plans have been made. Il these
carry there will be several new d..
rectors on the board in place Of
those now serving. Hugh Chalmers
will be elevated 10 the position Of
chairman OF the board. while an
other experienced automobile manu-.
facturer will succeed Mr. Chalmers
as president II Is also believed that
there will be a new stock issue. in
creasing the capital from 100000
to $14.000.000
II the present idea prevails a
group OF New York bankers headed
by J. s. Bache q Company will con
troll the finance OF the corporation
and several representatives OF inc
financiers will be on the board. II
Is believed that holders OF rhe 264,
900 shares OF stock. underwritten by
New York bankers last fall. viii
have the privilege OF subscribing 10
the new preferred stock at $40
share for the number Of shares they
now hold.
II is also proposed 70 guarantee
$3.50 annually on each share OF the
new preferred stock, which must be
paid ahead OF any other dividend
disbursement. After that is pail the
common stock will receive SINH
lar dividend and II there should
still remain funds for further divi-
dends the two classes of stock viii

Mr. Chalmers. thru his secretary

information would be guesswork at
best. as II was impossible To say

Montana State College,
Breeding heifers.

Question: What is the proper age
to breed beef and dairy heifers? Is
there any difference between them?
~. +. B. Fortine.
Answer: There is quite differ
ence between tho breeding time Of beef
and dairy heifers. Dairy heifers ma
ture more rapidly than those whose
blood lines are strong in beef blood.
Then, too, it is a very prevalent opin-
ion that the dairy heifer should be
bred quite young, inasmuch as it is
thought that through this she ac-
quires the milking habit early in life.
Practically the dairy heifer should be
bred to calve when she is about two
years old. The leading beef organiza :
tons have passed rules which pre-
vent the registry Of calves from heif-
crs of less than about IS months Of
age. This rule was adopted because it
was thought that early breeding of
beef heifers stunted their growth. In
most purebred herds the heifers are
bred to calve at from IS to 80 months
Of age. With stock cattle it largely
depends upon the individual. and this,
Of course, holds true with dairy stuff
and purebred beef as we'll Stock heif-
ers that have been well fed their first
year. have had all the hay they require
and possibly some grain in addition
can be bred when they are long year
lings, so they will calve as twos. with
out greatly stunning them. Where the
heifers are run under old range con-
ditions and not fed much their first
winter they should not be bred until
they are twos. Breed as young as YOU
can safely do so without stunting the
heifers. That is the safe rule to go by
But be sure and feed the pregnan,
hcifer well.
Grain for Dairy Cows.
Question: Does it pay to feed gralr
to dairy cows after they have beer
turned to pasture? M. l.. p, lolo.
Answer: This depends on th'
amount OF milk the COW gives. IF sh'
