TYPES OF BABY-BEEF COWS
Three Very important Factors Should
Be Kept in Mind in Making
Proper Selection.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture}
In selecting COWS from which baby
beef is to be produced, three very i'm
portant factors should be kept in
mind:
l. The cows should have at least a
fair amount of beef blood. PurebredS
are not necessary, but two or three
crosses of such breeding is essential.
Cows with a preponderance of dairy
blood will not do for the production
of baby beef.
2. Cows best suited for this type of
breeding usually weigh 900 pounds or
over in thrifty breeding condition. SO
long as early maturity is not sacri-
feed, the heavier COWS are the most
suitable for baby-beef production.
Size of frame rather than weight
should govern in selecting cows which
are to be used for this purpose.
3. The COWS used to produce baby
beeves should produce enough milk to
keep the calves fat and growing with
out much additional feed up to wean-
ing time.
In addition to these three factors,
such things as constitution, uniformity
of breeding, color, size, and early ma
turity should be considered.

Norman Xmas

The names of the early dukes of
Normandy, as we'll as their family
history. are known but very dimly !;
and it may be as we'll that it should
be so, for their descent does not seem
to have been as orthodox as it might.
Be that as it may, the dukes appear,
in such reliable annals of their times
as we possess, under their Christian
names only.
Thus, William l of England (Wil-
liam II of Normandy was the illegiti-
mate son of his predecessor, Robert
the Devil, and of a young woman OF
Falaise, a tanners daughter named
Arletta. or Gas some say Herleva.
The birth records of Roberts prede-
cessors, Richard the Good Richard
the Fearless and William Long-Sword,
were equally smirched; and of the
parentage Of Raoul or Rolla Christ
ened ''RObert''), the first duke Of Nor
mandy of whom we have any histor-
ical knowledge, we have no data what
ever.

A MINERAL POINT INTERVIEW
Mr.. Hartley Tells His Experience.

Mr.. Hartley Tells His Experience.
The following brief account of an in
terview with Mineral Point man five
years ago, and its sequel, will be read
with keen interest by every citizen.
George H. Hartley, cigar manufac-
turer, State ST., Mineral Point, says:
II suffered for several months from Sc
we're, sharp pains in the small of my
back. My kidneys were sore and the
kidney secretions were unnatural. l
got Doan's Kidney Pills at Ivey's Drug
Store and two or three boxes drove
away the pain. The kidney secretions
cleared up and [ felt better ia every
way"
OVER FIVE YEARS LATER, Mr..
Hartley said: Il have as mucn conf
dence in Doan's Kidney Pills today as
when 1 recommended them some years
ago They rid me of an attack of kid
ney trouble. When | have any return
symptoms of kidney complaint, [ use
Doan's Kidney Pills at once and they

COW that most nearly meets the re-
qurements, with the hope that when
her production records show up they
will be so good that other Frenchmen
will want other COWS like her.
Big Pure-Bred Market at Home.
But after all, the big market for
pure-bred animals is at home. The
same facts that apply to foreign mar
ketS ought to apply to beginners in
this country. Take the man who has
been operating dairy farm with
grade COWS. Let him have a pure-bred
that not only looks better than any
cow he ever owned before but also pro-
duces better, and he is pretty certain
to start substituting pure-bredS for
his grades. If he gets poor producer,
of course, he is likely to make up his
mind that f'the pure-bred business is
mostly bunk" Community organiZa-
ton tends TO see to it that the begin
ner gets q good producer, which, in
turn, tends to make him a steady Gus
toner for pure-bred COWS until he has
placed his herd on a pure-bred basis.
Now that he can afford to do it, the
small farmer should give himself the
pleasure-and the actual bcnefit-of
having dairy animals that he can be
enthusiastic over.
"YOu never saw a man." says one
of the governments dairy experts,
"just boiling over with enthusiasm
about grade cows. The grade-cow man
may think about getting up early in
the morning to work with his COWS,
hit the pure-bred man is perfectly will
ing to stay up all night with them"
In all OF this discussion the good pure
bred is understood, and not a scrub
pure-bred, for there are some Of that
kind.

BEYOND PUNY MAN
Before Volcanic EruptionS He
Is Helpless.
Fact Made Manifest by the lnditfer'
ence Which He Goes About His
Business After the Disasters
Have Passed.

Under no circumstances does man
show to less advantage than When
q volcano sends forth it's torrents. AS
a figure of speech, man may consider
himself to be puny creature, but MS
working opinion of himself is by no
means so small In Java the eartn
groaned, and $4,000 people were wiped
out of existence like so many ants.
Perhaps only 10000 were killed; per-
haps it was 10000. No one will ever
know; no one will ever be concerned
in the matter beyond the desire to ar
rive at reasonable guess as to the
loss of life. It will always be vague
question, to be discussed in rOund
numbers The Javanese who perished
were indeed puny creatures, whose
memory will be nothing more than a
mathematical approximation.
AS far back as man has a history
there are details of volcanic eruption
to testify to the haphazard, unWOrk-
manlike fashion in which this world
of ours was made. POmpeii and Her.
culaneum are household words to peo-
pie who do not know where VesUvius
stands, but Stabiae, which was in
quilted with them, seems to have es-
capped literary notice. Between We
suvius and Pelee there are few who
have any knowledge of the volcanic
catastrophes that have suddenly over
Whelmed thousands of human beings.
Messina still fingers vague in the pub
lie mind and Pelee, by reason of its
comparatively close proximity, can be
recalled, although one must ordinarily
consult books of reference to deter
mine whether the loss of life was 80
900 or 100000. The Krakatoa erup-
ton, which took place in 1888 on the
Sunda sea not far from the Kalut ex-
plosion, has been studied for years by
scientists, but the fact that 10000 per-
sons were killed is an inconsequential
detail. The KrakatOa explosion is not
remembered because it caused 10000
deaths, but because it occasiOned some
puzzling atmospheric phenomena. Sou
friere, a neighbor of Mount Pelee, has
a long record of disaster, in which
the mortality figures are usually over
looked. The fact that the explosion
was heard in South America, while it
was not heard at distances of 20 miles,
is considered of much more impOr-
lance. SOufriere, it may be recalled,
was in eruption at the same time as
Mount Pelee, but on this occasion it
killed less than 1900 persons. Per-
haps for this reason it is never men
toned.
Before the volcano man stands help
less, and he recognizes this fact by his
Indifference. He buries his dead and
goes about his business. AS in the
case of the Messfna disaster, he only
waits for the ground to cool, when he
goes to work imperturbably raising his
crops on the dangerous mountainside.
In the meantime he tries to crafty his
taste for information by studying vol
canoes, but without any hope Of being
able to protect himself.

railways, thus creating railway system
extending from the port of Santos via
Sac Paulo through the rich coffee
country, onward across the northwest

new railway is also in contemplation
across the coastal range of Brazil from
Angra dos Refs. midway between Rio

heart of the State Of Goyaz.
The Peruvian Government Is at pres
ent considering the construction of q
railroad which Is to reach the region of
navigable rivers in the north, affluents
Of the great Amazon. This will make
possible the shipment Of goods from Cal
lao on the Pacific to ports on the Anna

will tap extensive virgin forests OF vaiu-

communication between Argentina and

been commenced and construction is pro-
ceeding on the line from Iquique to Pin
tados. The Northern Central Railway
