MAY ESTABLISH WHALE HERD
Los Angeles Man Confident There Arc
Great Possibilities in Such an
Undertaking.

A whale dairy is the latest posi-
bility in Los Angeles, CAL, if the in
cipient demand for whales milk is
continued. Although whale meat
has been served in leading hotels on
the Pacific coast for more than a
year, the mi Tx of the cumbersome
mammal has not been in special de-
mand.
According to Capt. John B. Loop,
a whaler at Long Beach, who has
been supplying the most delicate cuts
of the mammal fish to hotels and res
taurants patronized by connoisseurs,
the milk Of the whale is richer and
more palatable than cows milk. A
test made at a lodge function result
ed in request for permanent sup
ply Of the new drink. Captain Loop
has received an order from Omaha,
Neb., for a quantity of whales milk.
Captain Loop is leaving soon for
his first whaling voyage Of the sea-
son. He has announced that if the
demand for sea mammal milk ap-
pears to be permanent, an effort will
be made to bring the COW whales
home hereafter, so they can be
herded into a dairy.

HANGMEN WANT MORE MONEY.

England's public executioners, the

and their claim has been presented
direct to the house of commons by a
member of that. body. Augustine
Hailwood inquired whether tho gov
ernment knew it was paying the exc
cutioners no more than in prewar
days. A government representative
replied that the matter would re-
ceive consideration. The hangmen
recently were deprived of the privi-
lege of taking away the rope with
which the criminal was hanged. This
reduced one Of the sources Of their
revenue, as the rope could be sold for
= good price to curiosity collectors.

THE MOST ACCURATE
RIFLE In THE WORLD

The United States standard Spring
field rifle proved at the lOlympic
games that it was the most accurate
rifle in the world.
In competition with rifles Of every
conceivable type and pattern. with no
restrictions as to telescope sights,
special barrels and other accessories
which make for accuracy, Sergeant
Morris Fisher u. S. Marines, Of
Youngstown, Ohio, firing the u. S.
magazine rifle, won the individual
rifle championship Of the world at
Antwerp, Belgium, last month.
Ninety crack shots from 10 differ
ent nations competed in this 300
meter free rifle event and Sergeant
Fisher pulled up under the wire with
score Of 996 out of a possible
1880. which was seven points in the
lead of his nearest rival Larsen, of
Denmark, according to advices re-
ceiyed recently by Capt Harry X.
Pickett. Of the office of the sea-sol-
diers at Memphis.
This is the first time in history
that this shooting classic has ever
been won by competitor using the
standard military rifle Of any coun-
try. 1t is also the first time it has
ever been won by a member of an
American team.

GOV. cox. AND THE FARMERS

In 1918, when the whole nation was
alive to the necessity Of stimulating
agricultural production, Gov. Cox
went to work to aid the Ohio farmers.
He called a meeting Of tractor
manufacturers and stated that he
wanted them to allot at least 1900
farm tractors for sale in Ohio. He
then went to the superintendent Of
the State Banking Department and
obtained letters to every banker in
the State, urging financial assistance
to the farmers in the matter of buy
ing tractors. He deposited $4,000, 900
of the State Industrial Commission
funds in country banks. with a hint
that they lend at least some Of it to
farmers buying tractors.
Gov Cox then went to the Federal
Reserve Bank and secured ruling
that notes given by farmers pur-
chasing tractors be discounted on the
same basis as agricultural implement
paper. BY these various means the
farmers Of Ohio were enabled to pur-
chase in 1918 1882 farm tractors,
thus practically doubling the number
in the State. This was said to be the
most aggressive campaign ever waged
by any governor.
