Washington-Although Congress is

advisers that he will exercise the au-

Increased restiveness in Congress
over the Spencer organization was
manifested in the Senate when Sena-

attacked Secretary Hoover for "in-

Congress adjourn.

PICNIC
IS BIG SUCCESS
The AUTOMOBILE CLUB SECOND
ANNUAL PICNIC SUNDAY AT
MOUTH OF PIGEON

The Cook County Automobile Club
held its second annual picnic Sunday
on Canadian soil, jointly with the
Canadians. The day was an ideal
one. The start on the part of the
Grand Maraisites was not made earlv
so the grounds were not reached till
about noon. The arrangements COM
mittees were there ahead of the rank
and file of the club members and
their families and coffee, tea and lem
onade was ready to serve when the
picnicers arrived.
The Canadians had sign at the
turning-off place so that no one: was
Inconvenience by going beyond.
The picnicers carried their: +own
lunch, butt the tea, coffee and lemon
ade were provided free by the Cook
County Automobile Club. The Fort
William City Band was on the picnic
grounds at an early hour, and after
eating their lunch held a concert
there during the time the others
were eating and afterwards.
The barkers for the refreshments
committee loudly acclaimed the serv-
ing of tea, coffee and lemonade, so
that none had to be without his fav-
orite beverage.
About 200 o'clock A. F. Pitcher
of Fort William called the gathering
together and introduced DR.. F.. B.
Hicks, who spoke for the Americans.
After him, Member-of- the Canadian
Parliament Manior was introduced
and also spoke at some length. The
line of thought followed by both
speakers was of the friendly feeling
and common interest Of the things
pertaining to both governments.
They lauded our forefathers for the
treaty which was formulated a little
over a hundred years ago which pro-
| vided that there should be no stand
| ing army and that there should be
no guns on either side. They pre-
dicted the perpetual continuance of
these relations, and pictured the vast
contrast of the example set-to the
world for amicable adjustment of
disputes between these two govern
ments and the hostility which has
existed between the governments of
Europe.
The Tug of War came next. The
Canadians had evidently been feeding
their men fish, as they said they
/ would do a year ago when our men
came away with the beautiful loving
cup which they generously had furn-
ished. The contest was to be de-
cided on two out of three, and after
two successful pulls the cup was
taken away from us for year, or
until we have another opportun.
ity to compete for it.
1t was a glorious day. The turnout
was large. There were 178 cars
counted as they left the grounds
Some cars pulled out before the
count was started. The 178 included
trucks, some of which were loaded
with fifteen or twenty people. There
were no less than a thousand on the
grounds.
1t is a hard climb out to the main
road from the mouth of the Pigeon
1t would be to the interest of the
ECanadians, we believe, to mend the
road little, as the site is beauti-
full one. And the falls, which are ac-

% YOU KEEP COWS OR DO YOUR
COWS KEEP YOU?

Daily weighing of the milk weld
OF each COW and q monthly testing of
the milk for the percentage of but
te1>fat make it possible for the
dairynan to know with certainty
how much each COW has produced.
An investigation of production in the
state Of Illinois revealed the fact
that approximately third of the
COWS were kept at a loss, oneethird
broke about even and the remaining
third were profitable to their keep
ers. What is true of the dairving
section of Illinois is probably true of
other dairying sections. What the
situation is in this county can not
be stated because only very few
of our farmers are keeping produc-
tion records. But it is probably true
that with the relatively high costs
Of feed and labor large percentage
of our cows are Improbable to their
owners. This is condition which is
within the control of every dairyman
who is interested in developing pro-
fitable herd and is willing to under
take the little additional work re-
quired in keeping production records
With such records there is no diff
Guilty IN picking out the profitable
cow. 1t is a matter of so many
pounds of milk and so many pounds
OF butter-fat. 1t is plain fact and
not an opinion or impression.
Production records enable the
| dairyman to measure the development
of his herd from generation to gener-
alton and so determine the merit of
the herd sire. They make possible,
too, the testing of the actual ca
pacity of his cows, many years of
investigational work in animal nutri-
tion having made it possible to fig
ure the food required for the pro-
duction of milk and for body main
tenance. With this knowledge avail
able each cow can be fed according
to her production requirements and
the limit of her capacity. 1t has
been found in a number of instances
that supposedly "common" cows,
when supplied with the proper kind
and amount of feed, have proved re-
markable producers. There is yet
another value in such records and
that is in the selling end of the busi-
ness. 1t has been noted at sales of
dairy cattle, that COWS included in
cow-testing associations, with pro-,
duction records open to inspection by
prospective buyers, have brought
higher average prices than those with
out such records. And this is alto
gether. reasonable. However good
Judge of dairy type man may be,
appearance does not tell the whole
story. A very fine illustration of this
VAS afforded by a feature at one of
the great dairy shows few years
ago. A number of cows of the lead
ing dairy breeds, all having produc-
tion records but which were not dis
closed, were on exhibit and all VISIT
ors to the show were invited to place
them in order of merit, as judged by
appearance. Among those who as
sayed the task were some of the
leading judges of dairy cattle in the
United States but not one succeeded
in placing all right and the majority
we're far astray.
