WORLDS RECORD COW !
IS IDAHO PRODUCT
HOLSTEIN-F -FRESIAN COW HOLD
ING WORLDS RECORD FOR
MILK FROM THIS STATE.

Segis Peiterje Prospect, the Hol-
stein which recently broke the worlds
record for milk production, is COW
of Idaho birth according to Prof. H.
P. Davis, head of the department of
animal husbandry at the University
of Idaho.
"The animal may truly be classed
as an Idaho cow" said Prof. Davis
today, 'since she was born in this
state and lived here during her early
months. She was born on the farm
of George V. Leighton, near Boise,
and although her record was made on
the Carnation stock farm in Washing
ton, Idaho dairymen may feel just
pride in the fact she comes from this
state.
Her sire, King Segis 10, headed
Mr.. Leighton's herd for some time
and many of his offspring are still in
south Idaho. At the Caldwell sub
station experiment farm, a son of
King Segis heads the Holstein herd.
King Segis Matador Walker, the
son of Matador Segis Walker, already
a famous bull, and the grandson of
King Segis 10, the sire of the record
breaking COW, headed the University
of Idaho dairy herd for time. His
daughters are just coming into milk
and look quite promising.
Various dairymen in both north
and south Idaho are known to. have
stock which can trace back relation
shipship to King Segis 10, and hence
to Segis Pieterje Prospect. From
this it appears that enough of the
blood of King Segis 10 remains in the
state to materially help the Holstein
)reed."
The champion cow made a record
# 37,384.1 pound of milk. equal to
-158 pounds of butterfat in one year.
This is 5000 pounds more than the
lext best record and an average of
47.74 quarts Of milk daily. She is not
# exceptional size for a Holstein,
Weighing but 1850.

DISCOVERY OF RICH
SILVER IN ALASKA
ANOTHER YUKON RUSH EX-
PECTED AS RESULT OF FIND
ING UNUSUALLY RICH ORE.

DAWSON, Y. T.-(By A. P.)-
Discoveries heralding the birth Of a
new Yukon have been made within
the last few months in the Mayo
area, adjacent to Mayo City, lying in
the upper Stewart river country, 15O
miles from the great gold centre of
Dawson, according to reports reach
ing here.
These new discoveries are in silver
bearing minerals, breaking in rare
richness and extent from the high
barren hills forming a spur of the
Rocky Mountains. Biologists and
mining experts who have visited the
region lately say that a zone having
every formatin favorable to extensive
deposits runs in the Mayo
area fir at least 25 miles in length, by
ten miles in width.
In this belt and outside it rich dis
coveries are said to have been made.
Nearly thousand mineral claims
have been staked, the greater num-
Der within the past 18 months.

Gasoline trucks will constitute mo-
bile bases for various branches of the
palaeontologists, arch

speeding cars are used in explora-
tions and hunting. DR.. Andrews has
found a 5O-miles-an-hour too slow to
keep up with frightened antelopes

speedier racer to use in huting these
mile-a minute runners.
The first base of the party will be

scientists expect to remain twenty

ron left at p. m. Monday from North
Island in his especially reconstructed
De Haviland airplane in an attempt
to fly to the Atlantic coast within "a
hours. The only scheduled stop in
his 2,070-mile flight is at Dallas,
Texas.
Lieutenant Coney was delayed by
late receipt Of word of slight rain and
clouds in the mountains, but was not
deferred by the conditions. He placed
a good deal of confidence In his De
Hayiland airplane, which had been
reconstructed especially for the flight
extra gasoline and oil tanks having
been built on for the long trip.
The 400 horsepower machine re-
eeived a thorough test yesterday and
worked to the complete satisfaction
of the pilot
The officers and men at North is
land gave Lieutenant Coney mighty
cheer as the big machine took off for
its journey.
The aviator was examined thor
pronounced him physically fit. A
package of official mail from the
commandant of the naval air station

the naval air station at Pensacola,
Fla, was entrusted to Lieutenant
Coney, in addition to a number of
North Island to acquaintances at
Jacksonville.
Lieutenant Coney carried as food
four pounds of chocolate and two bot
ties of hot coffee, experienced avt-
ators having urged him to take the
hot liquid not only for it's food value
but as a stimulant to help keep the
aviator from feeling drowsy in his
night flying.
1t is expected that the aviator
would climb to an altitude of 1905
Ieet in the first stage of his flight

". He had 35-mile wind at his back

For some time before Lieutenant
yoney' took off, rain had been falling.
But at about $3.50 p. m. the weather
cleared.
AS he left the lieutenant must have
weighed nearly 200 pounds, counting
III his equipment, which included
leavy clothing, electrically warmed
or the high attitudes he expected to
axe, and parachute, fastened about

Lieutenant Coney was born at
ltlanta, Ga. He won his aviator's
rings at Kelly field, San Antonio,

Pensions to Soldiers.

Perhaps no new form of national
expenditure caused by the war inter-
csts txs so widely as the pensions paid
to our soldiers. On the one hand there
Is an intense desire that justice be
done to those who fought for US. while
on the other hand there is a grave
sense of the weight of the obligation
falling upon the new generation to pay
such a huge sum annually. in return
for which there is not. directly or in
directly. any relative production or
national wealth At the end of 1919
there were 8G429 pensions being paid,
a, a cost OF about s1,So0,oo0 monthly.
During the year. by the payment Of
SIS. 10000. pensions were commuted to
the extent of 1922, and the number
IF tensions in force at the end of
1920 was 1928. Further commuta-
tions are expected bringing the total
m about $4,000. on which about ST.
zoo 900 will have been paid. AT the
moment our monthly outlay for PEN
sions is about So 500. 900. but commuta-
tons will probably reduce this to
about sf.S50.000.

ton OF increasing taxation to meet
