Pure Bred Live Stock

About one Of the largest stock
breeding enterprises In the country
At the present time 10 known ~ the
Gossard Breeding Estates. The Cos
ssrd Estates consists Of three man,
moth breeding farms, one located ut
Martinsville, Indiana, one 1t Turon,
Kansas, and one ct Axial, Colorado.
These farms are owned and opsrat-
ed by H. w. Gossard, . wealthy
Chicago manufacturer. who bids fair
to become one Of the most noted
breeders Of pure bred stock In the
country.
The Gosssrd stock farms have
lately attracted the attention Of such
papers rs the Chicago Herald and
the Washington Post, which com.
msnts favorably on Mr.. Gossard's
efforts to improve horses. cattle and
hogs by the introduction Of pure bred
stock In these lines.
The Gossard Breeding Estate now
owns the highest priced boar In the
world-the famous 10000 Berkshire
boar, "Epochal;" "GrenAt," Amer
ica's greatest sire, heads the Gossard
Percheron stud, and "Vlllages Mas
ter" the peerless breeder, heads the
Shorthorn herd.
Stock from these different lines,
can be seen At the Axisl plant Of the
Gossard company.
Speaking on the increasing de-
msnd for food land especially meat
products, noted authority says:
1.-THE insistent demand for greater
food production will not end with the
termination Of hostilities. In Ameri-
CO our increasing population de-
mands that each acre Of soil shall
yield larger crops. Similarly we are
beginning to demand that each pound
Of grain fed TO stock register In in
creased meat production. Thorough
bred stock achieves this end better
than grade stock"
1t always pays to breed to the best
blood.

Wilson Likely to Call
Miners From Army

Washington, Aug. within a
few days President Wilson will issue
proclamation relating to the coal
mine labor problem that will be
somewhat along the lines asked by
the National Coal Association. At
the same time he will cause action
to be taken in regard to drafted
miners.
1t Is said the proclamation will
go 10 the utmost limits in using the
Presidents prestige as a means of
stimulating the miners 10 renewed
efforts. The action as to the draft
probably will be such as to make
possible the return on furlough of
miners already in the Army, and
will positively suspend the applica-
ton of the draft law to all coal
miners until after March 2, 1919,
An appeal also will be made, it is
likely, to miners who have left the
mines for other employment to re-
turn to them.
Whether any attention will be
paid to the appeal of the operators
that national prohibition be put into
effect Immediately as the most i'm
portant step in increasing coal pro-
duction is not known, but it is in
umated that the President will go
to surprising lengths in his effort to
assist production.

TO Begin Work on New
Second Baptist Church

Harold A. Nipple, contractor, began
construction of the new edifice for
the Second Baptist Church, Monday.
The new structure will, it is said.
rank among the most beautiful
churches in the city. The entire
building will be built along modern
lines and will be a monument to the
splendid Perseverance of the men and
women who have labored long and
faithfully for the upbuilding of the
Second Baptist congregation.
Much inconvenience has fell to the
fortune of the church members since
their church building was burned.
Incongruous as it may seem, they
worshipped in a dance hall for a long
while. They have had many trials
and discouragements but in the fu-
ture expect to have brighter times.
The entire building will not be
completed at the present time The
ground floor and foundation of the
Bible school. it is expected, will be
built in the near future. and as soon
as the finances of the congregation
improve. they will continue the con-
struction.
The church members are making
many sacrifices for the new building
and they appeal to all their friends
who have made pledges to give GER
tain sums. or who would like to give
something to help them,' says the
