will give those who were not able to
attend the Dairy Show last fall an OPP
portunity to witness next year, what
is conceded to be the worlds greatest
display of dairy equipment, dairy pro-
ducts and dairy cattle. 1t will also
give our Livestock Breeders and Boys
and Girls Club members an excellent
opportunity to show their animals at
this show with less expense than if it
was held in Chicago or in some East
ern city.
Last year our Guernsey Breeders
made very creditable showing. Had
the show been held elsewhere it IS
likely that these men would have con-
sidered it too expensive to prepare
and ship animals to the National. :
Would it not be well for others at this
time, to begin selecting and feeding
animals for the 1922 show? The
County Agent will be glad to give as
sistance in this work.
In a recent letter to the County
Agent, Mr.. w. E. Skinner, Secretary
of the National Dairy Association
said, 81 want to say to you that the
decision to return to the Northwest
was largely based upon the letters re-
ceived from the Agricultural educa~
cational factors in the Northwestern
states" In our letter to Mr.. Skinner
we stated that we believed a second
show in st. Paul would be better at
tended from this county, than the
first. Were we right?

 Meanwhile the whips. Knutson, Minnesota. and Begg, Ohio, working like stevedores. were trying to round up the absentees in town.

 Responsibility for forcing . postponement of the work is ac- cepted by the ! Alabama deln- gatlon. Its position against an immediate resumption Inspired other southern and pro-Ford delegations to vote likewise.

 Such hope, according to represen- tatives Mann of Illinois, and Hull of Iowa. advocates of the Ford offer, Is impossible of realization.

Treaty AdUocafes
 To Haue Majority
 In New Irish Dali
By Associated Press

Dublin, June 24.-Complete returns in the elections for a new parlia- mont in southern Ireland show that the body will be made up of ss pro- treaty representatives. 3s anti-treaty representatives. II laborites. farm CTS candidates; 6 independents ana { members from Trinity college.
 Although the meeting of parlia- ment is only a week off. both fac- tions point out that nothing has been done toward forming the pro- posed coalition cabinet. The republi- cans say they are waiting request from the treatyites to their agreed four ministers in the joint cabinet. But the treatyities apparently, are in no hurry to ask their help.
 On the republican side, much bit- terness has been caused by the de- dates of republicans on the panel ticket. due to the refusal of treaty men to vote the whole panel ticket. On the other side 1t is suggested that even such successes as the re- publicans obtained were due to wholesale impresonation of absent voters.

MALL0Y GIVEN 25 YEARS ON ASSAULT CHARGE
". J Rushton, Pioneer Resident and CiUic Leader, Dies Al Home

Following an illness extending over q period of over 10 months W. J. Rushton. president of the Birming- ham Ice and Cold Storage company, died at his residence last night at 7;3o o'clock.
 With the passing away of MT. Rushton, Birmingham has lost one of her most influential and public spirited citizens. Prominent in all movements that had for their pur- pose the uplift and advancement of the city, the deceased gave freely Of his time and means to every cause that had for it's object the general good of the community.
 Possibly the most prominent of his civic activities was his work for the public schools of the city. For many years he had been member of the board of education and at the time of his death was president of that body. With the late Dr. J. II. Phil lips, MT. Rushton worked and labored to advance the cause of education and 1t was to the deceased truly g labor of love. He strove to bring the public schools of the city to the highest state of efficiency. His business interests were diver sified, in the many enterprises with which he was connected, he made a full measure of success.
 He is survived by g daughter. Mrs. John C.. Crouch. a son. J. Frank Rushton and eight grandchildren. Funeral arrangements have not yet been made and will be announced later.
 Born July 15, 1S46
 Mr. Rushton was born at Philadel- phia on July 16. 1s4s. He received a preparatory education in the public schools of that city and in an Episeo- pal college. His parents who were or English descent, moved to New York when he was 15 years of age. Here his business instinct first asserted it.
