DAIRY
EXPENSE OF SAVING CALVES
Cost Just as Much to Raise Poor AMI.
NAL as Good one-Dispose Of
Culls Early In Life.

Calf conservation looks like good
thing to many of the wiseacres, says
the Farmers Guide, but Is it? Can
the farmer afford to save the measly
little specimens of bovinity that occa-
sionally appear in the best herds?
There are always some culls that can
not be turned to good account either
as breeders or for beef. If every calf
dropped were a high-class individual
that could be raised and fed econom-
ically, the situation might be different.
1t costs just as much and sometimes
more to raise poor calf as good
one, and when you have it raised what
Is 1t good for? Let the conservation
list go out into the open country and
visit a number Of farms where he can
get next to the actual conditions then
let him study up on the economy of
beef production and he may change
his mind. Most certainly it is wise
to save the good calves, the kind that
can be raised into profitable breeders,
milk or beef producers, but the other
kind had better be disposed of early
in life before they have time to be-
come an expense.

Cavalier Star Registers.
Football stock at the university
took a decided boost last evening
when it was learned that Gordon
Fisher, the Cavalier athlete, had reg
istered in the Engineering college.
Fisher is n of the best high school
athletes that the state has produced,
and had decided to enter the Univer-
sity of Michigan, but changed his
mind and has entered the gu" here.
He has had considerable football ex-
p%erience on high school teams and
may be looked forward to as a strong
addition to the university team.
Fisher. it will be remembered, is
the man who holds the high school
record in the shot put. He also won
this event at the big meet at Mime
apolis when he a a senior in the
high school. He will also be a valu-
able addition to the track team.
Fisher registered too late to be ELI
gible for the Vermflion game, but
will be out in a suit on Monday.

Game.

On Board Giants Special Train, Oct.
1c.-No more confident ball club ever
sailed forth to battle than the New
York Giants, today eli route to Chi
cage and the fifth game of their
worlds championship series with the
White SoX. Having evened the count
at two all, the National league cham
pions were convinced they had only
to continue playing at the same speed
they developed in the two games at
New York to overcome their Ameri-
can league foemen.
While the Giants carefully resisted
any temptation to prophecy a COM
plete triumph within the next two
playing days, they were rank to con-
fess that they regard the White Sox
as already beaten. McGraw's men,
however, do not underate their OPP
ponents. They expressed a belief that
Manager Rowland would almost GER
tainly start Ed Cicotte, Of "Shine ball"
fame against them in to1norrow's en-
ticipated another gruelling contest in
which the breaks" in the luck would
probably decide the issue.
Sallee May Lead Giants.
They also predicted that Harry
NoA4IlJ o<tilCO Will iCdu lIC -NSW 4oAn
club into action in the fifth game of
the series and the third to be played
in Chicago and that he will be even
more effective against the White Sox
than he was last Saturday, when he
held the American leaguers to seven
hits while yielding a 2 to 1 decision
to Cicotte.
All the Giants except Lew McCarty
were in perfect physical condition as
the club travelled westward. McCarty
announced that while his shoulder
wsS better, he probably would be I'M
able to catch another game this year,
but would be ready within a couple Of
days to SUI play as a pinch hit
ter.
Manager McGraw had nothing to
say for publication beyond the mere
statement that he never had lost faith
in his champions and that he now re-
CARDS their chances of winning the
baseball championship of the world as
better than ever.
