OUR SHARE is FAIR

The news from the front continues
good but the end is not in sight.
America and the allies have pooled
resources in q common cause-united
we stand for victory. Each country
is under q solemn obligation to give
ifs best where it will count the
most.
American soldiers and American
food supplies must continue to Tow
across the Atlantic-thiS is our share.
we are happy that our food situation
ia such that we can share even more
literally this year than last, for their
soldiers are now our soldiers and our
boys are theirs.
The food administration has entered
into an agreement with the food con-
trollers of the allied nations to export
during the coming year breadstuffS
70 the amount of 400, $4,000 bushels.
While wheat makes up the bulk OF
this amount, from 100,000,000 to 1885,
100000 bushels may be cereals other
than wheat. This means doubling the
amount of wheat exported from the
,1o17 harvest, but we are better able
'to snare this years crop and even
more ready to share with those who
hold the line with US.
United we stand for victory =

ANY veteran stOckman Will tell you
that. He will also tell you that the
ranks Of the. boys and girls contain
MANY a "b0rn stockman," and that they
must be found and developed II the
success Of the future live stock IN
dustry is TO be assured. He has great
confidence In these young people as
prospective stockmen.

essential phases Of the work OF the
Wisconsin Live Stock Breeders as
ISOLATION is to encourage "St0ckman-
shin" among Wisconsin boys and girls,
and new activity along this line has
been launched this year. 1t Is the
county fair live stock judging con-
test.

fair-horses, beef or dairy cattle and
sheen or swine Awards have been
made according to the standing of con-
testants in placing each class and CIV
ing the reasons for these placings. Six
ty per cent has been allowed for the
placing and 40 per cent for the rea-
sons. Thirty minutes are given to

In addition to this prize, the fairs have
offered attractive cash premiums, and
many OF them through the local breed
ers' associations, are providing special
prizes for proficiency in judging GER
tain breeds Of live stock.
A good stockman is, first Of all, a
good judge. Proper care in feeding is
largely wasted upon animals Of the
wrong type and conformation. Train
ing in live stock judgment is, therefore,

All He Wanted.

Frederick Hardness of Los Angeles
was annoyed so much by flies in
room which he occupied in an upstate
city hotel during the past summer that
he summoned a boy to make a com
plant.
"Want your room changed, sir?" in
quired the boy.
Groom changed, MOI" said Mr..
Hardness. 'It's the flies I find fault
with, nothing else"
The boy reported to the proprietor
of the hotel that Mr.. Hardness was
satisfied with his room. but that he
wanted the flies changed.

tain this nice man until you think he's
ready to come back to his work." she
asked.
"All you've got to do is to interest
him and keep him interested. You
must meet him in such way that he
can't help noticing you. He needs
something to occupy his mind"
It'll feel like vampire" she muse1
But she went.
So a few days later Mildred Nor
rison was established as the star
bOarder on the Jackson farm on the
other side of the road and quarter
of mile below the Allison place.
Holster heard\of it at breakfast the
next morning. Mr.. Allison said that a
right pretty looking city girl had come
to board with the JacksOnS for
while, but he didn't think much about
1t until some time later in the week
the day he went fishing, to be exact.
The weather was perfect and work
had slackened enough so that Hol-
lister felt that he could take a day off
with clear conscience so he walked
through the woods and the fields to
the Horton pond some three miles
away. There at the grassy foot of q
steep bank some ten or twelve feet
high he made himself comfortable and
set out a couple of lines.
He was all unaware that Mildred
had been stalking him for the past
several days. She had seen him sew
eral times, but there had been no OPP
portunity to meet him in any other
than an ordinary way, and Mildred
meant to obey Uncle Docs orders If it
was possible to do so. That afternoon
in her Wanderings she came to fence
that ran along the top of an uneXpect-
eddy high bank, and peering down dis
covered to her surprise the unsuspect-
ing HOLSTER tending his lines.
She leaned forward against me
fence to get better look at her VIC
tim. The old rotten posts gave way,
and Mildred suddenly found herself
describing a beautiful somersault that
landed her most joltingly on her
hands and knees at Holsters side.
He stared in startled surprise.
II just dropped into see If
if you were having any luck" she said
dizZily, as soon as she could. catch
her breath.
II think" he said, relieved to see
that she wasn't hurt, "Pm not sure but
I think this is going to be the luckiest
day OF my life" He looked back up at
the top of the bank from which she
had descended upon him. "What Cir
Gus were you graduated from" he
grinned.
Mildred looked up at him from UNI
DER her tumbled hair and HOLSTER
looked deep down into the offering of
her glance-and from that instant
neither he nor she nor the orders OF
Dr. Dubbs had anything more to do
with it.
In less than week the neighbors
had noticed it. In ten days HOLSTER
had succeeded in kissing Mildred after
several false StartS-and in three
weeks DR.. Dubbs received letter
from HOLSTER that made him snort.
Dear Doc.-You needn't think
you've put anything over on me. You
haven't l put it over all by myself.
AS a matter of fact / don't care if l
never come back to town. You see
there was wedding in these parts

N. Y. Federation, of
Agriculture Plans
Fight on Whitman
Reprisals Threatened if AL
bany Meeting Carries
Out Programme
Centre Fire on Frazer
Livingston County Bankruptcy
Records Cited as Indication
of Counter Attack

The New York Federation Of Agri-
culture, in order to make trouble for
Governor Whitman and his supporters.
has arranged a meeting for perma-
ncnt organization, to be held at the
Ten Eyck Hotel, in Albany, ON Friday
morning, June Z.
Tho Whitman men have withheld
their fire, but holding the meeting IN
Albany just as the pre-primary cam
paign in favor of the Governors re.
nomination is on, Is likely t. provoke
reprisals against two of the organizers
Of the federation, Seth J. T. Bush, its
secretary, and Samuel Fraser, its vice
president.
The Whitman men assert they have
evidence that Secretary Bush double
crossed" John J. Dillon in his attempt
to obtain an official preferment at the
hands of the Gobernor. Mr.. Dillon
formerly was on the State Food Com
mission with Mr.. Bush, and both were
ignored by the Governor in appointing
the Farms and Market Council.
The Whitman men expect to make
Mr.: Fraser do lot of explaining by
calling attention to the bankruptcy
records in Livingston County, where
Mr.. Fraser, one of the county's largest
fruit growers, filed petitions in bank
ruptcy last month, with liabilities Of
$4,000 and assets Of $3,663.62. On the
debit side were unsecured claims
amounting to $4,000 and secured
claims amounting to $4,000.
The Governors political supporters
say tho Federation Of Agriculture is
not formidable because it never has
been able to federate the great agricult-
ural organizations of the state. They
call attention to the alleged fact that
the state oranges and the dairymen's |
associations have never gone into it,
and that it is in no sense a federation
Of farmers, but rather a political ma
chine, organized in the interest of Mr..
Bush, Mr.. Fraser and the Democratic
party.
The circular letter sent to about 1000
farmer organizations around the state
inviting them to the meeting, says no
one but regularly accredited delegates
New-York tribune., 1918-05-26

representing organizations that have
joined the federation and paid their
dues will be permitted to vote at the
meeting. A paragraph in the call says:
'If any additional incentive were
needed to induce farmers to join this
federation other than that Of common
sense in uniting for the protection of
their own interests, it could be found
in the desperate efforts being made by
the politicians to belittle, misrepresent
and destroy it. The movement behind
this federation represents a call to
arms, call to farms and a call to
reason"
The dues are s25 per delegate repre-
senting a farmer organization, and
every organization composed of at least
60 per cent actual farmers is eligible to
and will be entitled to one
delegate up to 500 members.
