Particular credit is reflected on
the farm management by the fact
that IA Of these 16 prize animals
were bred at Island Farm, proof of
constructive breeding of high order.
Another interesting fact is that IL
of the herd are the product of the
leading herd sires, being sons and
daughters of the noted May Rose
sire Beda's May King and 5 the get
of Gold Lassie's Julian, the young
fGlenwood-Starlight bull, bred at Is
land, who has number of this sea-
sons grand championships to his
credit. The first daughters Of this
prize-winning 5-year old to come in
to milk are making production
attention and rumor in show circles
here today has it that the Island
Farm has refused very handsome
offer for Gold Lassie's Julian but has
agreed to his rental for six months
to prominent Illinois breeder.
Beda's May King, admittedly the
greatest living son of Imported May
Rose King, purchased from the Della
ware state agricultural college by
the Island Farm, was not included in
the show herd, being II years old,
but his seven sons and daughters,
conspicuously uniform and of ex-
cellent type, took several numbered
dollars in prize money. Bred in the
purple of May Rose blood as they
are. these winnings make them large
assets for Island Farm.
| With a total of nearly $4,000 in
prize money for it's show season the
herd ships to Minnesota tonight in
charge of the young veteran Of the
American and English show circuits,
Walter D. Jones and his assistants.

as those who are familiar with mil

and forever stamps the native sons

chance to express their preference
for service. Although all requests
cannot be granted. nevertheless the
requests of the recruit may have
some little bearing as to whether he
will be assigned to machine gun
company an artillery company, a
quartermasters' corps unit, etc. The
fact that most of the local men have
voluntarily signif1ed a preference for
the machine gun and infantry units,
