borne little. If any, fruit. a formal
call has been sent out for a gathering
of voters tonight in the city assembly

II will be the second of such meetings

that there will be a large attendance.

URGES STILL HUNT
AGAINST SCRUB BULL
County Agents, Dairymen, Anc
Farmers Generally Asked To
Join Movement
STOCK TO BE IMPROVED

COLLEGE PARK. Apr. 22.-County
agents. dairymen and all farmers who
own dairy herds are being asked by
G. II Wolcott. specialist in dairying
for the University of Maryland Ex-
tension Service. TO join in still hunt
against the scrub bull
AS an initial step in the campaign
Mr. Wolcott has planned bull census
which will disclose the number of
herd sires in each county of the state
the farms on which they are located
and the breed 10 which they belong
Bulls of mixed and unknown ances-
try will be included and an effort
will be made TO ascertain the atti-
tude of the owners of scrub sires re-
garding their replacement with pure
bred, registered animals.
With this information. county agents
and the Extension Service will be able
10 launch a determined campaign for
he Improvement of the States dairy
herds.
THE influence of the pure-hred sire
OF known ancestry in improving milk
and butter fat production is now so
we'll established as hardly TO need
comment" says Mr.. Wolcott. "A very
striking example of it recently came
to light in Carroll County where six
daughters of one purebred sire gave
an average production OF 1.400 pounds
of milk and so pounds of butter fat
in excess of the average production
of their dams"
TO Raise Level OF Breed
The campaign is being planned just
at this time because of the fact that
the value of pure-bred. registered live
stock is considerably below the level
of previous years. According to Mr.
Wolcott, breeders are now disposed to
sell good animals at farmers prices
and the opportunity thus afforded the
farmer of improving his herd by the
purchase of we'll bred sires should not
be lost.
Many dairymen in the state have al
ready taken advantage of the situation
and have brought into the state some
exceptionally fine speciments. In
Queen Anne's county alone, nine reg
istered bulls have been purchased by
breeders since the first Of the year
