REDUCE SCRUBS
TO ONE IN TEN is
RECORD OF ASSOCIATION

From ten scrub bulls to one among
its thirty-five members is laudable
of the Mcmillan
Marshfield Testing association in the
first nine months of it's organization.
Figuring a pure bred sire worth $500
a year in the improvement, the effect
on a herd of common cows here is an
eventual annual saving of $2,400 to the
herds. But. that is not all, for five
other members who had previously
owned pure breds replaced them with
bulls of superior breeding, reports
Emil Sebastian the tester.
Three carloads of concentrates and
carload of feeding molases were
purchased comparatively. Better
raising of calves, better feeding and
care of cows are some of the other
benefits that are being derived.

SHOEMEN ARE
OPTIMISTIC
CONVENTION GIVES THEM
NEW LEASE OF LIFE
LOCAL MEN SAY

"A splendid representation of local
Z hoe retailers attended the annual
Invention of the National Shoe Re-
aailers' convention, which was attend
cd also by large number Of The ]arg-
est shoe manufacturers in the United
States. Among these who attended
from Wausau were William c. Schlae-
fer, Theodore Mayer, G. 3. Mayer.
Gustave Berg, Ctto Sabatke, Carl
Porath, OF c. Oldenburg, George
Gcgg, Paul Tress, Arnold Kloster-
mann, B. Silberstein, Frank Howe,
Ben Friedl, and representing the
Marathon Shoe company were s. J.
Pentler and 0. R. Short.
Best Address
.oThe finest address of the conven-
iion, the feature of the whole thing,
was that made by Norman H. Johnson
of Richmond, Va" one of the retail
ers told Pilot reporter on his return.
MIR. Johnson has made careful
study of the shoe industry. He is an
expert statistician and his talk con-
tanned figures of a very interesting
character. He told us that the cost
of living had decreased forty-seven
per cent in the past year and that the
cost of labor had been reduced twenty
two per cent during the same period.
He also revealed the fact that wages,
as matter of fact, were twenty-five
per cent higher than in 1919 because of
the decrease in the cost of living. Mr..
Johnson advocated cooperation be-
tween retail dealers and an elimina-
tion of the question that in times past
has arisen whenever one retail dealer
passed his competitor on the street in
the morning-Is he going to pass me
up this morning?'
Stock Exchanges
"Mr. Johnson also told the retail
shoemen of his system of stock ex-
changes among merchants. If one
merchant happened to have big
stock of shirts on hand and another
elsewhere too big a supply of under
wear, through an exchange headquar
ters these stocks could be exchanged,
thus saving the necessity of ordering
supplies from manufacturers and car
rying stock of goods meanwhile that
could not be turned over"
The trouble that arose over the
Palm Beach affair at the Auditorium,
one local shoe dealer declares, was
mainly caused because the mattresses,
attired in bathing suits, were nom
union. Union mattresses objected and
carried their plea to the mayor with
the result that the city attorney in
terfered.
Optimism was the keynote of the
convention, and it is estimated that
S3,000,000 worth Of shoes were sold
by manufacturers. Although this
amount does not seem large, it is
considered quite important. The con-
vention prompted retailers to buy and
the impetus thus given business is
likely to continue

the hearts of those who saw the mo-
ther's beautiful affection and the

love that caused it.

OBJECT OF LADIES'
AUXILIARY

The Ladies' Auxiliary of the Y. M.
G. A. is composed of so many good,
old fashioned mothers who just can't
bear to see things look barren and
cold and unpleasant, that they've de-
cided on their own initiative to put
curtains on every window in the build
ing. That alone is quite task and
will require tremendous lot of sew
ing.
Better Furniture
The materials have already been Sc
iected and the ladies are going right
ahead to carry out the decision they
made at recent meeting, according
to Mrs. Russell Lyon, president of the
Ladies' Auxiliary However, they are
not going to restrict themselves to
beautifying the lobby in the associa-
tion building which, it is quite gener-
ally admitted, has not been as inviting
as 1t should be. From now on the
women are intending to make this
portion of the building resting spot
where men and boys will enjoy re-
manning seated to visit. Davenports
