Saturday afternoon. 1t was hard,
rough game, with the Barre attn
letes playing far superior foot ball.
In spite of such a decisive de-
feat Coach Frank B. Tuckerman
of the Academy "eleven" feels that
he has a greatly improved team.
He was very enthusiastic over the
showing made by his protegees
against such a strong adversary.
He declared that the boys showed
up better than they have since the
start of the season and tn only
thing he laments is that he l.as not
a heavier team.
McBain, Harvey, Kellogg and
Moore starred for st. Johnsbury.
Each one of these youngsters
played a steady game throughout.
The Barre interference was very
weak and the st. Johnsbury boys
broke through the line time and
time again but the sufficient punch
to score a touch down was lack
ing. The visitors did better in .Ae
second half than in the first. The
boys showed a great deal more Of
rep and several times came near to
crossing the Barre goal line.
The first six minutes of the
game passed without scoring. But
it was not long before the old

Arrange Fight
On BillbOards

Methods to insure careful regu-
lation and eventual abolition of un-
slightly billboards formed the chief
topic Of discussion at the eighth
annual conference of Massachu-
setts planning boards held at the
Winchester Country Club.
The Rev. Dr. Howard S. Chidley
of Winchester drew an unfavorable
comparison between European
and American towns on the basis
of beauty and community effort,
declaring that the latter were
"Spotty" and too much given to
unsightly commercialism. He urg-
ed, as one suggestion, the advisi-
bility of erecting churches at least
five-eighths of a mile apart.
Speaker Young who followed in
the absence of Gov. Cox detailed
the growth of the movement
against billboard. Mr.. Young
asked public support for the
division of highways in its
effort to curtail the nui-
sancc, emphasizing the fact that
the advertisers employed skill1ul
legal talent and only an aroused
public opinion could turn the scale.
During the succeeding discussion
the speaker suggested 10 valid rea-
sons which might be urged by COM
munities who were seeking to have
the licenses for billboards within
their district cancelled. They were;
Fire risk, filth, hiding places for
criminals and immoral persons,
wind hazards, traffic danger,
breeding spots for the gypsy moth
the depreciation of surrounding
real estate values, the effect on

Pasture Plays an Important Part in
Cost of Producing.

pounds; dry roughage, 92.9 pounds;
succulent roughage, 1888 pounds;
| bedding, nine pounds; human labor,
10 hours horse labor, .O1 of an hour;
other costs, $0.576. During the sum-
mer, milk could be produced at much
less cost, there being required a com
paratively small amount of concen-
trates.
During the two years covered by
the study, 44.5 per cent Of each years
income from milk was obtained dur
ing the winter During the first year
records were obtained on II herds
having an average size of BIB COWS,
with an average annual production of
1869 pounds Of 3.74 per cent milk
per COW. During the second year IL
herds, Is of which had been in the
first years work, had an average
of 286 cows and produced an aver
age Of 1923 pounds of $50 per cent
milk per COW. From each 100 cows
in the herds during the two years, 90
freshened during the winter six
months period and AZ during the
summer season, while three cows did
not calve during the year. Nearly
one-half of the cows freshening
dropped their calves during the
months from February to May, in
elusive.
Most Of the milk in this section is
sold for condensing purposes, and is
delivered by motor truck to large con-
denseries. All the herds selected for
study were representative of dairy
conditions found in that section.
In western Washington the pasture
plays a very important part in milk
production, according to the bulletin.
With cool weather throughout most OF
the summer, plenty OF moisture, and
rich soil. there is abundant pasture
until late in the fall. During the pas
ture season almost 60 per cent of the
milk for the year was produced, and
at one-third of the yearly feed, bed
| ding. and pasture cost. The annuaf
| pasture charge per COW amounted to
IL acres or S2304. Such items as
veterinary fees, medicine, disinfec-
| tants. and other items, amounted to
S1.45 per COW per year. 1t was found
| that the number of hours required
TO care for a cow did not differ mate
rally between the summer and Win
ter seasons. However, due to the in
creased flow of milk in summer, the
time required to produce 100 pounds
of milk in that season was materially
less in summer than in winter.

what does 1t cost to produce milk?
This is the question that has
brought increasing concern to each
dairyman. In answer to ii. the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture,
through the dairy division, conducted
a series Of studies to give dairymen
reliable information on this subject.
These studies were begun in 1915, but
the most recent upon which any data
have been published was begun in
1917, in Skagit county, Washington,
about 20 miles north of Seattle. The
report of this study is contained in

quirements for Producing Milk in

A study of the results given in the
bulletin shows that at the time of the

Of producing milk at the dairies in

for other costs, and % per cent for

Advertising is the most important
factor in modern business, Dr. John

er of education, asserted in an ad-

factors of labor, raw material, pro-
duction, mark citing and organiZa-
tons, none of these, he said, are as
significant as advertising.
Advertising is the selling through

advertising is easily over $2,000,-

The County Baby Beef Club spent
lively day Thursday, June 10Th,
when, in company with the whole
family, every boy and girl in the club
started out from Dodgeville to visit
the farms where baby beeves are
being fattened. AS we went from
farm to farm the boys led their
calves out and the crowd then gath
erd round to see them, asking ques-
tons about the ration fed, gains in
weight, etc.
The first stop was on the farm Of
Ed. Prideaux, where Theodore is the
proud owner of the only Angus calf
of the club. Next we visited the
farm Of Harry Watkins south of

forth his pride, a dandy Hereford
calf. Young James claims to have

his bare feet while giving the calf
his daily exercise. E. r. Mcintyre

DEPENDABLE SIRES PAY BEST
South Carolina Breeder Gives Meth
DDS of. Raising Calves That Will
Develop Well.

Methods of raising good calves that
will develop well and show no signs
of runtiness are given by a South
Carolina livestock owner in a state
ment to the United States Department
Of Agriculture. The farmer advises:
1. Use purebred sires which have
behind them an established record
no guesswork.
2. Use purebred milk cows which
are bred for production and which
have proper points, such as deep I'D
der, well-spaced teats, broad TANKS,
deep abdomen, etc.
3. Feed only warm milk while calves
are Young. Gradually begin feeding
proper grain after the second month.
Do not allow them too much grass.
Give plenty of pure water, and never
allow exposure to rain or extreme cold
wind,
