Among the amateur ice skaters OF

omen to all amateurs of the city. with
the exception of Rudolph Johndahl,
who is. champion of North and South
Dakota. Barring Johndahl there are
a number of fast boys in the city who
can put up Il great race. Among
these men are Doc Moore. Alex
Carl, Windy German, Norman
Falkanger. Melvin Shoel and Joe Kit
tel. all of whom have expressed their
intention of competing for the city
title.
There are a number of youngsters
in the City who make good time on
the blades so a separate class has
been arranged for their benefit. This
class will be open to all boys Is years
of age and under. Separate trophies
will be given to the winners in this
class.
Special seating arrangements have

GAMES MAY
BE DECIDED ON
BY AMERICANS
Club Owners of American
Association Meeting in
Chicago Today.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-when the club
owners of the American association
met here today to arrange for the
1921 season, indications were that a
schedule calling for 16S games would
be adopted, although some of the club
owners favor a 1874 game schedule.
The season will open April 13, the
date of the major league opening. and
close about October 2, provided, the
1853 games program is carried out,
President Hickey said.
John w. Norton, president of the
p%ennant winning st. Paul club, is list
ed among the club owners favoring
the shorter season but President
Hickey said the majority probably
would vote for the adoption of the 1913
game schedule. -.
This was the length Of the 1920
season, which, the club owners said,
was the most successful in the his
tory of the organization.
The American association has CIV
en- notice that it will take advantage
Of the major leagues willingness to
grant us exemption from the draft"
President Hickey said. This action
will be taken regardless of the stand
of the other two Class IA leagues.

agreement is not consistent and I
cannot see how any Glass AA organi-
zation car accept a $1,000 draft price

cows or young stock, especially at
prices which the average farmer

If special dairying is to be engaged
in, it would doubtless be advisable to
use the pure dairy breeds, such as
Holstein, Jersey, Gurenseys or Ayre-
shtres. However, 1t is probable that
the S~horthorn, especially if the milk
producing strains can be. secured, will
be found most satisfactory to the be-
ginner: Such COWS require less care
full attention, and the calves produced
"a be sold for better prices.
1t is, however, advisable to secure
a sire of known origin. That is, one
whose ancestors have been bred and
developed for milk producing. This
is perhaps the most essential step in
the building up of a dairy herd, and
one which should not be sighted.
When it is realized that the aver
age cow being. MIXED only
$50 pounds of butter fat per
year, and that there are individuals
which have produced fifteen hundred
pounds, it is readily seen that too
much attention cannot be paid to the
development of higher producers. The
COW producing one hundred fifty to
three hundred pounds of butter fat a
year, will consume practically as
to eight hundred pounds. That is,
the maintenance of the weight Of the
COW giving three hundred pounds is
practically the same as the one giving
twice or three times as much, and 1t
is only what is secured above the
necessary amount required for main
tenance that can be considered profit
Dairytng Requires Care and Skill.
It can probably be more truly said
Of dairying than any other. line Of
farming. that the dairy business is
more .exacting, and to be successful
requires a higher degree of intelli-
gence and application than in almost
any other line. The best dairymen
are those who have been raised in
the dairy DISTRICTS and have learned
to like the work. A good dairy COW
is necessarily of rather a nervous
temperament, and requires more care
