Of the State Council of Defense,

liant service. has suggested to
Maj Gen. Sturgis that the TROOPS
in training at Camp Pike should
be taught the rebel yell.
1t is too good to be lost, +" said
Gen Gibbons. Gen. Jeb Stuart
taught it to the Army of the Con
federacy, and it served not only
to inspire our own boys but to
let the enemy know that they
were about ready to get theirs
So the old Rebel yell was at once
an inspiration and a terror, and
think that our boys ought to
know it
And Gen. Sturgis, big, brawny
noble soldier, whom all the boys
idolize, agreed with Gen. Gibbons
that it would be a good thing.

ing their dairy cows at this time
and others are selling them to
avoid feeding during the winter.
No greater mistake could be made
with good dairy COW. Cows
should freshen in the fall so that
there will be plenty of milk and
cream during the winter months
when these products are sold at
the best prices. Men who have
plenty of feed should keep their
dairy cattle during the winter
and breed early SO that they will
have good crop of calves and
plenty of milk next fall. We must
increase the mum Der and duality
of our dairy animals. During
the last year the export trade in
condensed milk alone has in
creased fifteen times, cheese
twenty two times and butter
seven times. while the entire
number of cattle in the world
has been decreased twenty eight
millions. American farmers
must do something. 1t isup to
US to revise our N ethod of hand
ling dairy cows.
