Polk Jersey
CowSetsNew
Milk Record

Dallas, Or, June 21.-Polk
county has stepped into the lime
light with another worlds pro-
duction for Jersey cattle-not
with the individual record of a
COW, but with a whole herd of
champions. This time it is the
Macarthur & Stauff herd at Rick
reall with an average OF 1908
pounds Of milk and 60.68 pounds
Of butterfat produced during the
month of May. This splendid aver
age was made by herd Of fifteen
cows on official register Of merit
test and it skaters all Jersey rec
ords for a herd Of that or larger
size. This Information is vouch-
ed for by the American Jersey Cat
tie club in bulletin just issued.
The most remarkable factor in
this great record is the production
of 2060 pounds Of milk and 113
pounds Of butterfat by the 5-year-
old cow Norena OF Ashwood. She
has been producing over 3.5
pounds of butter fat per day since
April 18th and is going at a
worlds record clip. She and eight
other daughters Of the bull Holger
averaged 1405 pounds of milk and
SO pounds of butterfat fast month.
The lowest record made in the
above herd during the month was
40 pounds of butterfat.
The Macarthur & Stauff herd
was established in 1914. 1t is
owned jointly by Congressman
Macarthur and o. b. Stauff, the
latter having charge of its active
management. The herd was a
heavy winner at the last Pacific
International.

STUDENTS HEAR TALK ON 1.-THE
IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING
AS A PROFESSION''

Yesterday morning during assembly
period at the high school, Mrs. l.. D.
Brown, president of the board Of educa-
tion, spoke to the students on "'rhe In
portance of Teaching as Profession -
She told the students that teaching is
the greatest profession that one can
choose for real service, one reason for
this being the present great shortage of
people in that profession. Some of the
greatest men in history have been
school teachers, Mrs. Brown stated, and
she went on to say that the state of
Minnesota realizes the Importance. of
education and is making every effort
to recruit people for this profession,
normal departments being maintained to
train teachers for the rural districts. In
this state, which ranks ninth in educa-
tional standing, there are nine thousand
children that do not go to school and
there are four thousand illiterates, ac-
cording to statistics. This is due to the
fact that the school facilities, particu-
larly in the rural districts that are
sparsely settled, are inadequate.
Next Tuesday A. 81. Vernon will ad-
dress the high school students.
