Crowned Kings Are
Still Numerous On
European Thrones

reigns with comparative quiet. King
Victor Emmanuel of Italy, however,
is in none too good a position, though
1t has shown signs lately of strength
ening. The king Of Spain, also man
ages to hang on.
The question OF king for Hun
gary is the puzzling one. Karl Is
the legally crowned monarch. After
his recent fiascO his supporters in
Hungary insisted that he would be
back in six months, and the annunce-
ment that he is about to go to Spain
gives some credence to the opinion
that he may try another coup, be-
cause in Switzerland he is very close
ly guarded. He has put himself in
a rather ridiculous position however
by having left Hungary twice now,
each time after proclaiming that he
would rather die than leave. Beside,
the little entente, supported. though
somewhat casually by the big one,
Is determined not to have a Haps-
burg on the throne. He Is, further,
Catholic, and, while the Catholics
are strong in West Hungary, large
part OF the country is Calyinist'c.
Since Karl's last departure. sew
eral rivals have sprung up. Admiral
Horthy, designated governor by the
parliament until a king was select
ed, was, according to stories in vi
emma, himself to have been set up
by the Small Landowners party as
king. That, however, fell through.
Archduke Joseph and Archduke Al
brecht both have strong followings.
In Austria, in spite of the royalist
party and the members OF the no
bility, who kept their titles only by
courtesy and persistence. the chances
OF kingdom are small. Many 2eo-
pie, however, remember the good
times before the war, and think that
they would come back automa tically
with restored monarchy The
thinkers Of Austria, however, say
frankly that the financial burden OF
keeping up royalty would be in
tolerable.
There is. on the other hand, party
in France supporting the idea OF a
monarchy, especially IN Austria for
the purpose of preventing union
with Germany. This policy, though
beneath on the surface, S vital one.
Frances policy is unquestionably
one of building as many small states
as possible, for two reasons-that Of
holding the leadership of Europe and
that of maintaining her security. II
she can strew kings about Europe
she can lessen the danger of ANAL
thus wdlling Russia off
from any expansion westward and
Germany out NC Mite Europa.

BIG RANCHES ONLY MEMORY
Progress Of Civilization Has Done
Away With the Picturesque Life
Of the Old West.

The big horse ranches have virtual
ly gone out of existence with the
passing of the Long Y in Montana.
says the Christian Science Monitor.
The big cattle ranch long since sue
cumbed to the onward march of the
sheep ranger and the wired fence, and
il was felt TO be only a matter Of
time before the horse ranch would
follow suit.
In this connection IL is interesting
TO recall the circumstance that
though the horse was unknown on
the American continent when the Span
iards arrived. prehistoric evidences OF
the animal have been discovered in
both North and South America. The
Indians. who had domesticated the
llama. the alpaca, and the dog. knew
nothing of the horse. and were aston
ished by the sight of the strange and
| unfamiliar animals which the newcom-
ers rode. Yet. with their introduce
tion by the white races, horses which
escaped soon ran wild and fiourished
on the same ranges where their an
cient cousins had apparently lived,
showing how well the country was
suited to their needs. There are a
few ranches today in the West where
the rug in the principal room may be
the hide of a wild horse. found In
Nevada or in Arizona canyons.

FOURTEEN POINTS
AGAINST THE SCRUB

Fourteen points were the basis Of
peace negotiations which brought the
WORLD war to conclusion. Fourteen
points here presented should convince
you that the scrub bull must be replac
ed by Il purcbred, thinks {. &. Chap
man, beef cattle specialist in the State
UniyerltSy Extension Division.
Here they are:
l. Because the markets will pay
you a premium of ten to twenty dol
lars for high grade steers.
,. Because steers sired by purbred
bulls weigh 200 pounds more than
scrubs of the same age.
3. Because well bred steers mature
earlier than your scrubs, giving you
quicker returns Oh your investment.
t. Because d purebred bull will sire
steers Of uniform color and quality.
). Because i'll the feed lot well
bred steers will out gain your scrubs,
converting your feed into cheaper
beef.
g. Because purebred bulls haey in
creased the beef producing capacity OF
every community where they have
been used.
Z. Because all successful cattle mel
have attained success through breed
ing for definite type, with purebred
bulls.
5. Because it is through the herd
bulls that the herd is improved-the
bulls must be better than your COWS.
g. Because the open range is de-
creasing all over the world. We must
produce more pounds of beef on a
smaller acreage, only with good grades
can We do this.
10. Because in this day of recon
struction, ineificiency is being eliminat-
ed-the scrub must pass with the
other failures.
IL. Because warm blooded cattle ar,
more prolific than the cold blooded
scrubs. You get bigger, more vigor-
Gus crop of calves.
l.. Because it takes quality to win
a killing and dressing contest. Did
you ever hear Of a scrub steer win
ming?
10. Because you get more pleasure
and satisfaction out of well.bred ami
mails. Did you ever know of man
taking pride in a scrub bull!
IT, Because you know you need
some purebred bulls before the breed
Ing season.
MI Chapman can tell you where to
get the kind of bull you need.
