Red, white and blue are colors

red, white and blue combined are
emblematic (upholding Old Glory)

the musical, girly-girly type of
amusement is preferable to that of a
more serious nature during these
troublous war times. Accordingly, he
renounced the drama, for the time
being at least, in order to concen-
trate on light, frothy entertainment.
And the justification of his decision
TO produce lighter works is evidenced
in the success of two of his early

| AS stated few weeks ago. owing
to the son of B. A. Samuelson being in
the draft it will be necessary to dis
perse his long established herd of
Red Polled cattle. The son was call
ed to the colors this week, and the
dispersion sale will take place on the
farm Tuesday. May 2Sth. No doubt
this will be the Red Polled event of
the year in Iowa. Several years ago
Mr.. Sa1ruelson made a business OF
showing his cattle at the leading fairs
and was very successful, but press of
farm work compelled him to give up
showing his stock. The herd has
been twenty years in the making and
is right now in a high state of per.
lection. Many of the younger mem.
bers of the herd are fit to make the
leading state fairs and if it were not
absolutely necessary for Mr.. Samuel
son to dispense this great herd neitl1'
er love nor money would induce him
to part with them. Thirty -eight head
will be sold, consisting Of bulls,
which includes the two herd bulls.

sired by the show bull. Roberta's
Goods. Fourteen head will either have
calves at foot by CRATER or be bred
to him. Ten open heifers will sell.
Saucy Bell, by Ruberta's Goods, is one
of the best in the offering. She is the
best of the four heifers that was first
as get Of sire at seven state fairs in
1915. The Red Poll cattle are a dual
purpose breed, they are great milk
producers as we'll as good beef cattle.
Every COW has been hand MIXED and
all are regular breeders. The farm is
located four and a half miles north of
Kir0n. Kraschel and Teaquist are
the aucti0neers for this sale.
