DAIRY CONGRESS TO BE HELD
IN WATERLOO DURING FIRST
WEEK IN OCTOBER.
FANCY HORSE EXHIBIT
BEING CONSIDERED
Added Feature May Include Driving
and Saddle Horses-Mor. Entertain
n,ent to Be Provided in Effort to At.
tract Vi5itors-Pure Food Show in
Connection.

Waterloo, Feb. l5.-Accordng to the
reports which We're submitted 70 the
| board of directors of the Iowa Dairy
Cattle Congress, the 1911 show will be
one of the best that has ever been
he'd. Letters are coming in from all
parts of the country asking about the
premium list which is offered this
year. The list of prizes offered this
Year viii be larger than ever before,
according To the officials of the
SHOW.
1t was decided to hold the show
Oct. | to this year Several changes
in the program We're considered and
some arrangements will be made at the
next meeting. Plans were discussed
for holding fancy horse show in con-
HectiOn with the cattle show. II these
plans are carried out, fancy saddle
horses and driving horses will be on
exhibition.
Provide More Entertainment.
Z. 5. Estel, manager OF the show,
also suggested that the entertain
ment features OF the snow be changed
during the middle of the week. If
this plan is carried out more people
will attend the show, according to Mr..
Estel. \ large number of people at
tend the show who are not interested
in the cattle, but only attend to take
advantage of the entertainment which
iC furnished. These people attend the
SNOW once during the week, and if the
program was changed many Of them
would attend the latter part Of the
week. These suggestions We're dis
cussed and Will be taken up at the
next meeting of the directors.
Plans were made 10 hold the pure
food show. This feature of the show
attracted many of the visitors last
Eear and plans will be made to make
this feature even more attractive than
last year.
Harry Lichty was elected member
of the board of directors in place OF
Ben Lichty. who resigned recently.
Another meeting will be held in
short time and the plans will be dis
cussed more fully.

out, would furnish 100000 trained
men at the end OF one year and make
possible an expeditionary force of L.
100000 men with the nucleus around
which to build second line defensive
army.
Secretary Baker is said to have told
the general STAFF he would not transmit
such bill to congress with his sup
port: that material reductions must be
made both IN the size Of the proposed
professional army and in the period OF
training recommended for civilians be-
fore he would sanction the measure.
The Chamberlain bill and the scheme
of the general staff agree that army
training should be given to every boy
when he reaches the age Of 10. The
former proposes that this training
ehall last for six months, while the lat
ter recommends period of one year
Pay Proposed For Soldiers.
The Chamberlain bill while authoriz-
ing the government to pay the trans
portatios and other expenses of the re-
cruits, makes no provision for pay
during this period, while the army ex-
perts would pay the men undergoing
training at the rate of $50 a year, about
one third of the sum paid to privates
of the regular army under the present
rules. Both plans by taking men into
the army at comparatively young age
of 10 purpose that military duty should
be performed by citizens in manner
which will least disturb the economic
organization Of society as we'll as least
interfere with the future peaceful ac-
tivities of citizens.
Altho no accurate estimate OF the
number of men to be trained annually
under the two schemes Is possible, it is
estimated. judging by the experience OF
European nations. that at least 100000
men would be eligible, after all the ex-
emptions were made to receive mill
tary instruction. About 100000 boys
every year reach the age Of 10, accord
ing TO the figures of experts, and prob
ably 30 per cent of these would be re-
jected on account Of physical or other
reasons.
Eventual Amy 100000.
Under either system there would be
trained annually in the neighborhood
of 100000 men. After either system
had been in operation for ten years
