Current Retarded.

II trouble develops in the battery
which upon examination is found to
be up to normal and yet is not deliv-
ering enough current to furnish lights
nor spark enough to ignite the fuel, the
basic fault will very possibly be found
in corrosIon of the terminals. When
the terminals are covered with 4 hard

Breckenridge Long.

Breckenridge Long of st.
Louis, Assistant Secretary of
State and Democratic candidate
for United States Senator, is 40
years old and was born in st.
Louis. He is the son of William
S. Long, who came to st. Louis
from North Carolina after the
Civil War. His father was Sc
yerely wounded while serving
in the Confederate Army. His
great grandfather, John Long,
served eight years in Congress
from North Carolina in the
Thirties. Long is a direct de-
scendant of the we'll known
Breckinridge family of Ken
lucky, members of which serv-
ed in the cabinet of Thomas JEFF
ferson. His mother was Miss
Margaret Breckenridge, a daugh-
ter of Judge Samuel Breckin-
ridge.
After attending the public
schools of st. Louis, Long grad
uated from the St. Louis High
School. He attended Princeton
University, where he was a stu
dent of President Wilson. The
Institution conferred the Bachel-
81 and Master degrees on him in
recognition of his accomplish
ments at the university. Fol
loving his graduation from
Princeton, Long went abroad
and visited all of the principal

European countries. The tour
enabled him to study economic
and political problems in the for
eign countries. He spent one
year abroad and on his return
to st. Louis started to study
law at the st. Louis Law School.
Two years later, in 1905, he was
admitted to the bar and began
the practice of his chosen pro-
fession. He practiced law con-
tinuously until January, 1917,
when he was elected by Presi-
dent Wilson for Third Assistant
Secretary of State. Altho this is
the only public Office he has held
he has always been identified
with the councils of the Demo
cratic party in st. Louis and Mis-
souri,. He has been one of the
party's staunchest supporters
He was instrumental in organic
ing the Wilson Club in st. Louis
in 1916 and was president of the
organization which carried or
an aggressive fight for the re.
election of President Wilson.
In 1912 Long was married t.

daughter of Senator Frank P
Blair, who was instrumental il

and whose monument stands a.

DAIRY NOTES

When ten days to two weeks of age,
the calf should have little grain.
The silo is one of the foundation
stones of successful dairy farming.
Some people like butter that is quite
salty and some prefer butter without
salt. 1t is all matter Of taste.
Every farmer who observes closely
must be impressed with the need Of
more dairy cows to economixe in food
production.
Dairymen should weigh each cows
milk daily. Feed and labor are too ex-
pensive to spend on any but high pro-
ducing animals.
Shipping whole milk long distances
without souring IL a matter requiring
skill and an understand
lns at NJ principles involved.
