Since this study relates only to the
immediate ancestors of recent prize
winners, thei influence of Cherry Chief
does not show up as prominently as
it would if the blood lines were to be
traced back an additional two or three
generations.

have been important in the develop

Income Tax Facts

In making out his income tax return
for 1921, the average taxpayer VIII
find a considerable saving in cori1par-
ison with the amount of tax paid on
the same income for 1920.
The exemptions provided by the rev.
enue act of 1921 are 1000 for single
persons (the term including widows,
widowerS. Divorces, and persons sep
arated from husband and wife by mu-
tual agreement), $500 for married
persons whose net income was $4,000
or less, and $4,000 for married persons
whose net income was $4,000 or more.
Under the revenue act of 1918 the per-
sonal exemption allowed a married
person was $4,000, regardless of the
amount of net income. The personal
exemption allowed a married person
applies also to the head of the family,

ton, one of the foremost sires of the
middle-west, has for his dam a grand
daughter of Oricn Cherry King, it may
be seen that there are very few herds
in the nation at large that have not
felt the influence of Orion Cherry
King.
Great Sensation appears second in
the tabulation, with score of 344
points, received through 10 animals
Great Sensation is the leading repre-
sentative of the group of boars re-
! scending from Great Wonder. Great
| Wonder and Great Sensation were
! both bred by William Modarow, of Ne
! braska. Six members of this group
are found among the % sires. Among
| them are Great Wonder and his two
sons, Great Wonder I Am and Ma
haska Wonder. Great Wonder | Am
sired Great Sensation, who is the sire
| of Great Orion Sensation and High
Sensation, also appearing in the list.
| The Great Wonder-Sensation has
! had its principal development in Iowa
and Nebraska, and it has had an i'm
| portant influence upon herds of the
| breed located west of the Mississippi
| river. The Sensation branch of this
/ line is now at the height of its intlu-
ence, and Sensation blood has lately
| been introduced into eastern herds.
| a notable instance of a grand
! champion which has proved to be a
valuable sire is found in Great Orion
| Sensation, grand champion boar at the
National Swine Shows of 1919 and
1921. Thirteen of the descendants OF
Great Orion Sensation have been mum
bered among the leading winners at
the last three Swine Shows, and their
|, winnings entitle their grand champion
ancestor to 324 points, the fourth
: highest rating among the sires. Since
he is now in his prime, the influence
of Great Orion Sensation may be eX
: pected to increase during the mex
few years.
Third in the list of sires is Pathfind

BY D. r. MALiN

When a sire figures in the i'm
mediate ancestry of AZ per cent. of the
principal winners of his breed, he may
truly said to dominate the breed.
The Duroc Jersey breed has such a
sire in Orion Cherry King. An analy-
sis of the bloodlines of the first three
prize winners in each Duroc Jersey
class at the last three National Swine
Shows reveals Orion King Cherry as
an immediate ancestor of "a of the
winners or AZ per cent. of the 81 ami
mails considered. The term immediate
ancestor is used TO include the sire,
grandsire or great-grandsire of an
animal.
A system of points has been en-
ployed for the purpose of definitely
comparing the sires of the prize win
ners considered in this study. Three
generation pedigrees of each winner
have been used in tabulating the
points. The sire of each first prize
winner has been awarded 80 points

tional Swine Show is obviously based
upon a small number of individuals.
These animals, however, are admitted
ly the choicest of their breed and are
truly representative of Duroc Jersey
bloodlines. Investigation of their an
cestry is bound to disclose those
hoars which have been of maximum
importance to the breed. Such study
assists in establishing the relative
importance from a showing stand
point, of the sires and of the various
bloodlines of the breed.
