FOR PRESIDENT
WARREN G. HARDING
OF MARION, OHIO.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT
CALVIN COOLIDGE
OF NORTHAMPTON, MASS.
THE CONVENTION

It was royal battle from start to finish,
fairly and decently fought, and the noml-
nation of Harding and Coolidge places
two able and trustworthy men at the
head of the Republican ticket. Maine
stood for Gen. Wood from first to last,
and, if nominated, Gen. Wood would have
been strong and popular candidate.
Governor Lowden would also have been
strong and popular, and either of them
would have given the country clean
and vigorous administration. After the
ninth ballot it was evident that unless a
break was made, balloting would con-
tinue perhaps for several days. Gov.
Lowden released his delegates and they
with several other delegates voted fei
Senator Harding, giving him almost 200
votes more than were necessary to secure
the nomination. Sen. Harding has been
spoken of as being dark horse, but only
once since 1856 has the Republicans
nominated a candidate to whom such a
designation could properly be applied
This was in 1880 when Garfield was
nominated at the close of strenuous
contest. Vigorous contests preceded the
nominations of both Hayes and Harrison.
IN the first ballot each of these stood
fifth. In the first ballot Harding was
sixth with IS IL votes, and in the second
moved up to fifth place, in the sixth
moved into fourth place, went into third
on the seventh ballot, and became lead
er in the ninth. When the final break
came 90 changed to Harding from Wood,
120 l-2 from Lowden. Johnson's maxi
mum strength of 148 had dwindled to 50,
many of the original number finally were
for Harding.
Thus it appears that little if any lasting
bitterness is likely to follow the contest.
As public office holder Sen. Harding
was State senator of Ohio in 1892 1908
and was lieutenant governor for the fol-
lowing two years. He was elected to the
United States Senate in November, 1914
His term of service as Senator will expire
March 3, 1921. AS to his business capac-
ty it is only necessary to say that some
40 years ago when he was about IS years
Of age he was working for a wage of SO a
week. By industry, enterprise and fair
dealing he has established a good bust
ness He is not a rich man and is con-
tent with modest competency. In poll
tics he is neither a reactionary nor pro-
gressive. He is a conservative, having
federation and vision. Gov. Coolidge was
nominated for Vice President on the first
ballot, receiving 674 1-2 votes against less
than 800 for all others. This shows that
all over the United States the ability of
1ov. Coolidge is recognized.
The Republican National Convention
Of 1920 has not only put in nomination
men who will be approved by the voters,
put it has written for them a platform
which is practical, sane and thoroughly
American.

INFERIOR SIRES ELIMINATED
First Count Of Scrub Purebreds over

prepared by the United States Depart

OF particular interest in live stock
survey recently completed in South
Dakota are figures on the quality OF
purebred sires, as we'll as on the num-
her Of scrubs and grades in that re-
gion. Fourteen counties typical OF live
stock conditions in the state were In
cluded in the survey. OF the sires in
herds of cattle 65 per cent were grades
or scrubs. and about 25 per cent OF
the purebred sires were classed as In
ferior, according to part of the re-
ports. This is the first count of scrub
purebreds, over considerable area.
received by the United States depart
ment Of agriculture.
It was found that when purebred
sires were used, the average herd OF
20 grade cows returned $40 more
profit during 1918 than when grade or
scrub sires were used. It has been es-
timated that the elimination of inferi-
or purebred sires would increase the
average profit in each herd from $40
to $500 annually.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
Do you know how to milk?
The question is neither irrelevant
nor impertinent. In sober fact, a
great many persons who milk cows
twice a day really know little about
the true art Of it, and great many
more could add to their present
knowledge.
The writer of this article met one OF
the men in the dairy division Of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture who knew how to milk. He was
a tall, quiet gentleman.
''1'll just drive the COW in the Office
here" he said. And he did. She was
q pasteboard COW, to be sure, but she
served very nicely to illustrate several
things about milking. And following
are few Of the essential things that
this man who knows how to milk said
about milking.
First Comes Cleanliness.
The first essentials are clean,
healthy cows and a clean, healthy
mixer.
The next, perhaps, is a clean and
ster1lized pail with a narrow or par
TALLY covered top.
The cow should be curried before
milking to remove loose hairs, dirt and
dandruff.s This should be done, If pos

milking process; and the milking, to
be be successful. must be done in such
a way as to promote that secretion
II 1t is done so as to give pain to the
COW or to alarm or dfsquiet her. she
will not give so much milk.
Keep milking as long as it Is pos
sible to get any milk. The last milk
is the richest. The first milk drawn
Is always comparatively low in butter
fat. 1t is the "strippings." or last
milk given, that contain the highest
per cent of butterfat.
Milk Should Be Weighed.
Well, that is about all there is to
the milking process. A great many
things are related to it. The depart
ment of agriculture recommends that
the milk should be weighed daily
There are several reasons for this.
One is that the ration should be ad-
justed to the weight Of milk. A safe
rule, the department experts say, IL
one pound Of grain to every three an'i
one-half or four pounds of milk. An
other. and perhaps more accurate
rule is to feed us many, pounds OF
grain day as the COW gives pounds
of butterfat in week; but this latter
rule is not so conveniently applied In
the case Of the family COW, because OF
the necessity of making Babcock
test for butterfat.
Tho yoivht NJ milk nrO6uced In
proportion to the grain ration. Is OF
particular Importance during the first
30 days after the COW freshens. She
Is at that time most easily able to
establish her working basis. She has
just had her vacation. Her milk
sccreting glands are sensitive. her d.
gestive apparatus active. A few days
after she becomes fresh. increase her
grain one-half or three-quarters of a
pound q day. and see how much milk
she gives the following day. Keep up
the increase from day to day as long
as she responds with enough increase
in milk to pay for the increased grain.
When the point is reached where the
milk flow fails to increase with In
creased feeding. reduce the grain ra-
tion pound or two, and keep along
this line until the point is found at
which the COW produces the greatest
md most economical flow Of milk.
Then fix this as her regular grain ra-
tion as long as she produces that
amount Of milk

sible, an hour before milking to allow
all dust to settle before milking is
begun.
The next thing in order is a sort of
sponge bath for the cow. 1t is very
simple matter. though. .Or all that Is
required is Il pail of clean water and a
cloth. Wash off and wipe the udder,
the flanks. the thighs and the switch.
That done. everything is ready for
the actual mllking-which process, by
the way. should he approached with
bands that are not only clean, but dry.
The milkcr sits down on Il stool
placed on the right-h side of the
cow: 1t Is not very clear just why the
right side is universally the milking
side. Perhaps it is partially due 10
the fact that the great majority Of
persons are right handed. The mixer
on the right side Of the cow, If she
starts to kick or to move, is in bet
ter position to ynnk the pail out of
harms way before she can upset it.
The milker then grasps teat in the.
palm of each hand. He squeezes the
tcat by closing the fingers around It
and ut the same time pulling the teat
slightly downward. Then the fingers
are lOoSened around the teat and the
hand raised slightly to allow the teat
to assume its original form and posi-
ton, while the other hand squeezes
and pulls slightly downward on the
other teat. Thus each hand alternate
ly gives a downward squeeze. in
rhythmic order
Getting Rid Of Bacteria.
1t is wise to milk about two souirts
out Of each teat before allowing any
milk to 60 into the pail. Bacteria ap-
pear to accumulate around. the end of
the teat, and to be got rid of largely
in this way.
Then clasp the small-top milk pail
between the knees, with the covered
portion of the top nearest the mixer,
If held in this position the covered
portion will prevent hairs and dirt
from falling into the milk.
Milk quietly but rapidly. The milker
makes use Of the mother instinct in
the COW. Harshness is against that
instinct and the COW does not secrete
as much milk as she would If she were
milked and handled quietly.
